No.


What exactly has Miyares done in the last years that was so catastrophic for Virginia!?! Do you actually live here?


MAGA Miyares stands with Trump.

For example. he has NOT held Trump accountable for illegally withholding funding for our Virginia schools.

He also hasn’t done anything about tariffs or federal worker layoffs.

He will support Trump’s next Big Lie.



They're also rolling over while our state's National Guard is being abused. One of my kid's teachers is forced off work by this to go.pick up trash in DC apparently. It also drains the VA National Guard's budget for dealing with actual emergencies like natural disasters.


1. FCPS is disregarding federal law. So, Miyares should ignore it? FCPS knew what the consequences were and chose to stand by their misplaced priorities.
2. As for the National Guard in DC, that has made a big difference there in crime. And, it was needed. As for your child's teacher, he is not required to be in the National Guard. That is his choice.


FCPS is following the law, unlike Trump.


What law is that?

No they are not.
They are blatantly violating Title IX.

You said the same thing when we were staring at the Biden v. Trump choice. At some point how are Democrats not learning to put up better candidates instead of berating voters about casting a ballot for their terrible candidate or else MAGA. Do better. This is why the party is so unpopular even in the era of Trump.


So to “teach” Democrats a lesson you’re going to fck us all over.

So irrational.

Grow TF up.

Nope, the Dems f*cked us all over by putting up Jay Jones for AG. I am not voting for Jay Jones because he is completely unfit for the job that he is running for. I am not going to eat a sh!t sandwich to cover for the Dems inability to run a qualified person for AG. And I’m not the only one with this perspective, but keep screaming into the void. *Shrug*


Go nuts. At least admit that you think MAGA is an acceptable outcome.


And Jay Jones is?


Yes. He got a speeding ticket and sent a text. It wasn’t an actual threat, just bad taste.

Get a grip.



It wasn’t a threat he wanted to shoot
Someone and their kids? How far will you go to rationalize that this person is not fit to be AG?


Was he actually threatening to shoot anyone? Hitler? No, it was obviously a hypothetical.

Poor taste but not an actual threat.




Here is some of the texts you think aren't so bad:

Jones then mused about a scenario in which he had two bullets and could choose to fire them at Adolf Hitler, Pol Pot — the brutal Cambodian dictator — or then-House Speaker Todd Gilbert (R).

“Spoiler: put Gilbert in the crew with the two worst people you know and he receives both bullets every time,” Jones wrote, according to the screenshot
.

The text conversation continued after the call ended. In those further texts, Coyner suggested that Jones had also talked about Gilbert’s children dying in the arms of their mother, Jennifer.

“You weren’t trying to understand,” Coyner texted. “You were talking about hopping [sic] jennifer Gilbert’s children would die”

“Yes, I’ve told you this before,” Jones replied. “Only when people feel pain personally do they move on policy.”

If a Republican said this about any Democrat you would be screaming to high heavens. The fact you think this isn't so bad says more about you are your willingness to excuse this.

Content aside. Any adult that would memorialize these comments in text messages show incredibly poor judgement and should not be rewarded with elective office.

The true crime is lumping in a communist revolutionary hero with Hitler and Gilbert.

Aside from the expressed thoughts, the lack of judgement is also a deal breaker.
Add that to going 116 miles an hour and going three miles before stopping for the police.
Then, doing "community service" for your own PAC (and incidentally being signed off by someone on his payroll.)

You would think that anyone running for attorney general would know better than to express himself in writing. But, I guess I'm glad he did. He just revealed himself to Virginia. And, yet, there are still people on this forum who support him. Very, very troubling.

I am guessing his point was around gun violence. Would it take having their own kids shot to convince Rs to support common sense gun control?

We don’t know exactly what was said or the context.

Speeding and bad taste texts? I’d still take him over MAGA.

The bar is truly so low now thanks to the Republicans that he honestly still has a lot of leeway.

So, you are OK with assassinating Republican leader's children until there is a shift in gun policy?

I obviously did not say that.

Why do Republicans blatantly lie? Do you think you won’t get called out on it? I just don’t get it.

Mike Lee
On June 14, 2025, after a gunman assassinated Minnesota Democratic Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, Lee wrote several posts on his personal X account.
One post declared, "This is what happens When Marxists don't get their way," even though the suspect was a conservative who targeted Democratic officials.
In another, he shared photos of the suspect with the caption "Nightmare on Waltz Street," an apparent reference to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.

Don Jr about Pelsoi's husband.

Steven Miller, Andy Oggles OMG Gosar.

When all of these sub humans leave office Repulicans can have a say in who runs for office until then you hypocrites anti american shits shut up.

The ballots have been printed. Many people have voted already. What exactly are they supposed to do?
