THANK YOU David Letterman & Stephen Colbert for a lifetime of smart satire, laughs, speaking truth to power & sending us to bed with a smile on our collective faces. You will be missed. 🙏 #EndOfAnEra

Well done and thank you, Virginia! #FightBack

It's really something to be living through the worst President, the worst Supreme Court, and the worst Congress all at once

Elections matter. Since 2020, I’ve been working to ban dangerous, untraceable ghost guns here in Va. After 6 years & 6 attempts, I’m thrilled to report that Gov Spanberger has signed HB40 into law making it a crime to buy, sell, manufacture, or possess a ghost gun in the Commonwealth.

Remember this when the folks running our country say they gotta cut more from Medicare/Medicaid, SNAP, or give out more tax breaks to billionaires.

If the stakes weren't so high and the human toll wasn't so awful, it would be genuinely very funny how little of a shit Trump gives about any part of his job that isn't renovations or rigging elections. The most obviously checked out dude in history.

I’m a HS civics teacher, union rep, former city councilor, and proud rural Democrat running for Congress to restore democracy & put people over profit. Join us and together we’ll flip #NV02 blue!

Don’t you think he looks tired?

Nevada's 2nd Congressional District wouldn't normally be on the radar as a potential flip, but in 2026 it's an open seat with the Trump slump for Republicans -- and we've got a rural teacher, union rep and former city councilor ready to step up and hold the Epstein Class accountable!

I’m scolding everyone for having their focus on the wrong thing. Hasan saying he won’t vote for Newsom in 28 is pointless. Rahm touring the country is just as useless. The house is on fire and people are arguing about what color to paint the kitchen. Let’s win 2026 first, then argue about 2028.

Friends, pull up a chair and let’s talk about what happened to Florida *after* legislative term limits were instituted. It’s all bad.

This is what our lives are reduced to when we give tax cuts to the wealthy billionaires and the Epstein class. When we operate under a Gilded Age economic system and have a “president” who drags us into an illegal war. I’m running to put people over corporations and to stand up for the Rule of Law

Can someone ask Pam Bondi how the Dow is doing?

The last 10 days of April 21 Virginia redistricting referendum will be critical Most satellite voting locations don’t open until the first Saturday of early voting: April 11 Dems will really need to crank out the early votes during that window Shorter time frame than last year

She talked about the Dow hitting 50,000 in the way a baseball fan talks about a pitcher having a perfect game through 6 innings. One's hubris can provide the ultimate jinx.

I don’t understand how “the DNC has two years to find a candidate that XYZ, or I won’t vote for them” makes any sense. The DNC doesn’t find a candidate. It doesn’t choose a candidate. Voters do.

It feels pretty intentional and homophobic that the Gay of Hormuz has been totally ignored.

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

boy in retrospect, really shouldn’t have elected the worst person in the entire country president. that, it appears, was less than wise

“This message is brought to you tonight by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which is solely responsible for its content.”

Pour one out for the poor comms staffers who need to pay enough attention to this shit to respond and fact check

I have to say, the lack of energy in that room is something - even the Republicans. This is the worst SOTU speech to date. So clear how disconnected Trump is from reality. November is going to be a wipeout for Republicans.

NOTE: If you hear the N-word during tonight's State of the Union, it's either because someone in the audience has Tourette's or the president is speaking

An irritating feature of the modern era is the tendency to operate in extremes and absolutes. Nuance and logic are often lost in pursuit of a definitive answer, even if one does not exist.

It's a good year to run for office (and in most places, it's not too late to get on the ballot.) www.runforwhat.net

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

Take a deep breath & keep flipping state legislatures.

I’m Analilia Mejia and I approve this message.

This quote jumped off the page for me: “One of the things that we’ve learned in the world of social media is that the truth is a rare and not very highly valued commodity… You don’t need evidence to make a claim online, and increasingly, people don’t even care.” www.linkedin.com/posts/trevor...

Honestly can’t tell if it’s a bit at this point

“Republicans argue Virginia has no say in federal actions.” Never again let these fools get away with saying they are the party of “small government” or “local control.”

MAGA Del Griffin on House floor admits that the GOP/Trump economy is failing: "We are facing at some point a recession." First time I've heard that acknowledgment.

VERY busy day in the VA General Assembly; looking forward to the Dems' "trifecta" passing/signing 100s of bills that Youngkin vetoed - and more! bluevirginia.us/2026/01/tues...

How many school shootings did we witness as the 2A lost there shit as we tried to stop it. But now, possessing a firearm while filming is a death sentence. Unfucking believable.

Imagine how much they’d be lying about what happened without all the videos showing it from multiple angles.

Today is the most humiliating day in the history of the United States of America. At least until tomorrow.

If you're thinking about running for office in 2026, filing deadlines are starting to hit. Look up what you might run for and get on the ballot ASAP - it's not too late! runforwhat.net

Beautiful emotional speech by @delciaprice85.bsky.social saying sweet goodbyes to Del Sickles and @candimundonking.bsky.social who are both moving on to serve in the Spanberger administration. Sometimes you forget how much of a family these legislators are to one another.

@ssurovell.bsky.social says when VA voters approved a Redistricting Commission 6 years ago, they didn't anticipate a "Hyper-partisan fascist ideologue asking state legislatures around the country to redesign their districts to maximize his political power."

i’ll say it again, jennings is a contemptible liar and it is a disgrace that CNN puts him on television every night to spread bullshit

Virginia Marketplace rep testifies to House HHS that the national GOP's failure to extend the ACA premium credits, 100,000 Virginians will lose their health insurance.

that thing you say when you've definitely never ever spelled it "hole milk" yourself as a goddamn adult and been corrected, never, not once, didn't happen

🤣🤣🤣

Ahhh, chaos! Steal the mace! It holds all their power!

Delegate @kathykltran.bsky.social nominates @donscott757.bsky.social to be once again elected Speaker of the House of Delegates. Consistent with Virginia tradition, GOP Delegate McLaughlin (formerly Campbell) seconds the nomination. He's duly elected unanimously (also VA tradition), and is sworn in.

CONGRATULATIONS to the newly sworn in House of Delegates!

Like an abuser saying, “you just make me so crazy!” after they assault you for the umpteenth time.

Virginia GOP is going to have recruitment problems for the foreseeable future Not big deal for 2026 U.S. Senate race bc unlikely anyone can beat Warner But 2027 Virginia State Senate and House of Delegates cycle starts this year Could be hard to mount credible candidates
