One of Miyares First Hires Resigned after being Exposed as Conspiracy Theorist

Virginians are certainly getting what they paid for:

A top deputy overseeing election issues for Virginia’s new Republican attorney general resigned Thursday after The Washington Post questioned the office about Facebook posts she had made praising Jan. 6, 2021, rioters and falsely claiming Donald Trump won the 2020 election.

You really have to hand it to the Attorney General's office for some quality vetting:

Victoria LaCivita, a spokeswoman for Attorney General Jason Miyares, said the office had been unaware of the Facebook posts before The Washington Post, which obtained screenshots of the posts, shared them on Thursday morning.

“This information was unknown to the Office of the Attorney General prior to this morning,” LaCivita said in a statement. “Ms. Miles has resigned from her position at the Office of the Attorney General.”

Here's the best part:

Miles later edited the original post to blame the violence at the Capitol on “antifa dressed as Patriots,” saying the supposed false flag operation was “Typical antifa and BLM intimidation tactics.”

You really think it is a good idea to have someone in charge of elections who thinks Trump won and the election was stolen from him?

Also, interesting that "DOXXING" is "looking at Facebook page".

He resigned.

At this point, what difference does it make?

Had you taken time to read the article, you would know that the individual's pronouns are "she/her".

Here's another one of Miyares' hires - his "special assistant for investigations" (who used to be chief investigative counsel for the GOP on the House Oversight Comm - https://www.legistorm.com/person/bio/169773/Carlton_J_Davis.html) asking about the UVA Counsel job the day it was announced he was fired by Miyares.

And doesn't it seem like Carlton Davis is promising the AG a favorable outcome (one that'll make the AG "look good") in the Loudoun County investigation (https://www.governor.virginia.gov/media/governorvirginiagov/governor-of-virginia/pdf/74---eo/74---eo/EO-4-Executive-Order-4-on--Loudoun-County-Investigation.pdf) in exchange for the UVA Counsel job?

Why wasn’t she fired?

Why wasn’t she fired?

Why was she hired in the first place? How did the vetting process fail so spectacularly?

They resigned - we don’t know the circumstances. Could have been the vetting process.

Reading a public officials facebook posts is not “doxxing”

Maybe she was “asked to resign?” Have any evidence that wasn’t the case?

Have you any knowledge that being asked to resign is a privilege compared to being fired?

I'm surprised they're not carefully vetting anyone they bring in. Given that the vast majority of Republicans believe the Big Lie then there is an extremely good chance that any staffers with social media accounts will have posted things like this.

How is it a dox if she posted seditious comments on public social media? You seem ill informed. Like Miyares.

I think this shows he is sloppy and hurried to fill positions after firing honorable attorneys. He obviously didn't think he was going to win the election.
