Semiautomatic firearms ban in Virginia

Virginia prosecutors refuse to enforce Spanberger's semiautomatic firearms ban, citing Constitution

More than a dozen county prosecutors across Virginia have declared they will not enforce Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger's ban on modern semiautomatic firearms, setting up one of the sharpest confrontations between local law enforcement and a state government over Second Amendment rights in recent memory.

The law, SB 749, which Democrat Governor Spanberger signed on May 14, bans a list of common firearm features and labels weapons possessing them "assault firearms." Within days, pro-Second Amendment organizations, the National Rifle Association, the Second Amendment Foundation, and the Firearms Policy Coalition, filed legal challenges. But the courtroom fight is only half the story.

On the ground, the prosecutors who would be responsible for bringing cases under the new law are saying, one after another, that they simply won't do it.

Their reasoning is not political posturing. It is grounded in specific Supreme Court precedent, and in the text of both the U.S. and Virginia constitutions.

The Order That Changes Nothing

Virginia Governor Signed an Anti-ICE Order and a Top Constitutional Lawyer Just Destroyed It

Kate Steinle's killer walked free in San Francisco because the city refused to hand him to ICE. Now Virginia's governor just signed her own version of that policy.

What a law professor just said about that order should embarrass her completely. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin didn't mince words when Spanberger signed Executive Order 16 this week. "No surprise: Governor Spanberger continues to put illegal alien criminals over her own constituents," Mullin said.

The order instructs Virginia state employees to demand valid federal warrants before allowing ICE onto Commonwealth property and bars state facilities from being used as staging areas. Federal law – specifically 18 U.S.C. 592 – already prohibits federal armed personnel from stationing themselves at polling places.

That law covers ICE. It was on the books long before Spanberger picked up a pen.

Constitutional scholar Hans von Spakovsky of Advancing American Freedom called it for what it is: "This is political theater. First of all, no warrant is required under federal immigration law to detain individuals. And it is a completely unnecessary provision."

Spanberger herself knew that when she signed it.

Spanberger Says She Wants New Rules For Polling Places

Spanberger’s decision to bar ICE from polling stations draws scrutiny

Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger says she will sign an executive order meant to guide election workers if federal agents show up near polling places.

According to reporting on her remarks, the order is supposed to explain how state employees and people helping run Virginia elections should react if federal agents appear where voters are casting ballots.

That may sound calm on paper, but in plain English it means the governor now wants a rulebook for a situation Democrats keep telling us should not be happening in the first place.

The ICE Question Is Hard To Ignore. The odd part is simple. Democrats have spent years insisting that illegal aliens are not voting because federal law forbids it.

So if that is true, why the dramatic rush to keep ICE away from polling places? That is the kind of question that practically answers itself. If there is nothing to see, then why the panic?

The whole thing makes it look like the left is more worried about enforcement than election security, and that is never a good sign for people who still believe voting should be legal, orderly, and transparent.

The Heist That Wasn’t Hidden

Glenn Youngkin spent four years turning Virginia into a business magnet

Well, that was another Democrat lie

Abigail Spanberger spent three months erasing his name from everything he built.

Now AstraZeneca’s CEO is on record thanking Glenn Youngkin by name – and Spanberger is holding a pen.

Spanberger sent out a triumphant press release on April 6 claiming she had signed bipartisan legislation welcoming 3,250 new jobs and $7.1 billion in business investment to Virginia.

Four companies: Avio USA, Hitachi Energy, Eli Lilly, and AstraZeneca.

All four announced their investments in Virginia while Glenn Youngkin was still governor.

Spanberger ran as a moderate. She governed like a socialist Democrat. An now she is a liar...can't get much worse than that.

Elections Have Consequences

Act for America

The dust from the 2025 elections has barely settled, and already we’re seeing the devastating toll of handing power to radical leftists who prioritize ideology over the well-being of everyday citizens.

From coast to coast, communities are reeling from policies that erode our freedoms, burden hardworking families, and undermine the very fabric of our nation. This isn’t just local fallout—it’s a national warning.

If we don’t stand up and fight back, the 2026 midterms could usher in even more chaos across the country.

Let’s start in Virginia, where Democrats rode a “blue wave” to sweeping victories in November 2025.

In the early 2026 legislative session, Democrats have introduced dozens of proposed tax increases, targeting everything from personal income to services as routine as dog grooming. If enacted, these measures would add new financial pressures on families already grappling with the effects of inflation.

In breaking news, the Tazwell Circuit Court on Thursday temporarily blocked Democrats from moving forward with an April voter referendum to redraw the state’s congressional maps.

It's not just Virginia where Democrats lied to the electorate; we know what's happened in New York City--Mayor Zohran Mamdani—a democratic socialist communist who made history as the first Muslim and South Asian mayor after his 2025 win—is already proving disastrous just months into his term. Mamdani promised transformative change. In a way, that’s true. He’s delivering chaos. And we can't forget crazy California and other states and cities across our country.

Democrats are voting in their own demise and that of our country.

Governor Abigail Spanberger conned the voters

Virginia Democrats Push Big Pay Hike FOR THEMSELVES

Lawmakers in blue state Virginia are facing fresh criticism this week. A budget amendment would more than double legislative pay. It comes as Democrats in Richmond pursue a slate of tax increases and new levies.

The pay plan is tied to SB30. It was introduced in the state Senate by L. Louise Lucas and in the House by Vivian Edna Watts. The amendment would raise pay in both chambers by about 150%.

That math means current salaries would jump substantially. Supporters argue it helps attract diverse candidates and offsets rising costs. Opponents say it’s tone-deaf while families juggle higher bills and new taxes.

Republican critics have been blunt. “They ran on ‘affordability,’ but all they’ve done is introduce insane left-wing policies and take from your pocket to line their own. TOTAL CON JOB!”

Democrat Blow-Outs expected in Blue States

Blue State Blowouts Were No Surprise to the GOP

"Democrats claim they notched big Election Day victories in reliably blue states this week. Granted, there were double-digit blowouts in high-profile races in Virginia and New Jersey.

Democratic candidates Abigail Spanberger and Mikie Sherrill easily won gubernatorial races, far outpacing their Republican rivals. The orthodox political rule is that anytime you get to 10 points or more, it’s a “blowout.”

But to Republicans, none of this came as a shock.

“It’s all basically blue states,” said Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.), dismissing any notion that these results signal a national trend.

GOP leaders had openly tempered expectations, with House Speaker Mike Johnson saying earlier in the day that Democrat radicals were likely to win these deep-blue contests.

Republicans insist these blue-state victories are confined to Democratic enclaves and do not reflect the broader American mood. And they’re right.

Democratic base voters were merely energized on their home turf." [Richard Luthmann]

Girlboss governors have destroyed every state where they have taken power

Democrats Abigail Spanberger (VA) and Mikie Sherrill (NJ)

"On November 4, Virginia and New Jersey will elect new governors. Democrats Abigail Spanberger (VA) and Mikie Sherrill (NJ) are the frontrunners.

They are manchurian candidate clones grown in the DNC.AWFL.PMC.NPC.AI lab. Both position themselves as moderate moms, but are captured by the far left. Both are unable to define what a woman is or commit to banning men from girls’ bathrooms. Both regurgitate the same Kamala-style word salads. Both platforms are copy pasta: orange man bad, abortions good, sanctuary state, climate hysteria, protect LGBTQ+ trans kids. Both pushed masks, school closures, and jab mandates during COVID.

Both are former Congresswomen. Both have masters’ degrees. Both spent time in the military and CIA with suspicious stints at Islamic schools. Both were endorsed by Obama, who filmed videos for both of them wearing the same shirt in the same room. Both have taken donations from CCP-linked groups.

Ironically, Abigail was born in New Jersey while Mikie was born in Virginia. They could swap places tomorrow and nothing would be different. The DNC base will vote for Mikie Spanberger because of the (D) next to her name.

Republicans Jack Ciattarelli (NJ) and Winsome Earle-Sears (VA) can win if Republicans turn out for them the way they do for Trump."

Democrats playing the Race Card again

Dem Says The Quiet Part Out Loud, How They Really Feel About Voters!

The upcoming gubernatorial election in Virginia represents a critical juncture for the commonwealth’s voters, presenting a stark choice between two vastly different visions for its future.

On one side is a Republican party focused on parental rights, educational excellence, and economic prosperity. On the other is a Democrat ticket, led by Abigail Spanberger and her running mate Ghazala Hashmi, that is poised to drag Virginia back into the divisive politics of the past. Voters must be acutely aware of the radical ideology this duo represents.

Spanberger’s selection of State Senator Ghazala Hashmi is a deliberate and telling move that signals a full embrace of the most extreme elements of the Democratic party’s platform.

Hashmi, as documented by the Washington Free Beacon, holds the very citizens she seeks to govern in utter contempt. Her assessment of the Virginia electorate is not one of respect, but of outright bigotry. Following the 2021 election, she participated in an interview where she readily agreed with the vile assertion that Virginians are racists.

During this interview, Professor Muqtedar Khan stated that Governor Glenn Youngkin’s victory meant “the majority of voters in Virginia are racist, or at least susceptible to racist dog whistles.” He further claimed the results showed “the Republicans are winning because the electorate responds to racist dog whistles.”

Instead of defending her constituents, Hashmi validated this slanderous attack. She callously agreed, stating the racism of the Virginia electorate is “very disturbing.”

Democrats play the Race Card at any opportunity as they have no polices anyone wants to follow and continue to prove they are full of sh!t. Winsome Sears, who I sent a campaign donation to, is Spanberger's opponent who is Black and at the moment, the Lt. Governor of Virginia. Sound racist to you?
