[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The GOP is on the offense against: 
- democracy / voting rights 
- women’s rights 
- LGBTQ+ 
- truth/facts

Any one of those is a deal breaker for me.

We don’t want any of that in VA.

Not only all of that, but earlier this week Youngkin was on a rightwing radio talk show hosted by a well-known racist, and he said - and I quote [i][b]“I hope that Virginians will walk with the spirit of Jefferson, and Madison, and Washington”. [/b][/i]

What does THAT tell you???

Those three white men all owned HUNDREDS of enslaved Africans. And he wants Virginians to “walk in their spirit”???

To me that’s a very, very clear statement about his views about POC, and his unstated plans for rolling back all civil rights protections that POC enjoy in Virginia today. We’re not just talking separate lunch counters and water fountains here - he literally believes in slavery. You think he isn’t saying a loud and clear message to the worst people in Virginia, that he has their back.

I cannot believe that this statement he made on this radio show didn’t get more coverage in the press. They just flat ignored it. I’m dumbfounded. [/quote]
