Abigail Spanberger Bullies UVa Board
by Kerry Dougherty Take a seat, lady. Someone needs to remind Abigail Spanberger that Virginia has just one governor. And until January 17th it ain’t her. Spanberger may have had an impressive win on November 4th, but Gov. Glenn Youngkin gets to carry out the duties of the office HE was elected free from her…

SNAP Recipients Can Do Their Own Eyebrows
by Kerry Dougherty Looks like the Democrats caved. Finally. Or at least 9 of them came to their senses regarding the damaging government shutdown that is in its 40th day. They got nothing. The shutdown was for nothing. Yet it did ensure that a seething bloc of Virginia federal workers headed to the polls last…

The Blue Tsunami
by Kerry Dougherty There’s no denying that Virginia was swamped Tuesday night by a blue wave. Make that a blue tsunami.

Save Virginia from left-wing radicals. by Kerry Dougherty Well, whaddya know, it’s Tuesday, November 4th. Election Day. No matter how busy you are, no matter what’s going on, don’t sit this one out.

Ignore the Polls. Vote
by Kerry Dougherty These are scary times in Virginia. If you believe the political polls – and there’s no reason you should, they’ve been wildly wrong for years in the Old Dominion – we may be about to fork over all of state government to radical leftists. It’s almost as if voters have forgotten what…

Virginia Dems: So Classy
by Kerry Dougherty You could respect Virginia Democrats if they would just be honest. Alas, it’s not in their nature and so we must endure endless gaslighting from the left as they breathlessly work to undo the constitutional amendment that the vast majority of Virginians voted for five years ago. You know, the measure that…

Schumer Shutdown Backfires On Democrats
by Kerry Dougherty I wouldn’t want to be a Democrat right now. What am I saying, I wouldn’t want to be a Dem ever. But right now they’re in a bind. On one hand, Dems want to keep the government shutdown going until after Election Day. They’re counting on angry federal workers to deliver a…

Virginia Dems Convene “Return to Gerrymandering” Session
by Kerry Dougherty Let’s be clear about what’s going on in Richmond right now with the sham “Jay Jones” Special Session. Democrats, desperate to get Jay Jones off the front pages and Winsome Earle-Sears off the campaign trail, are staging an unprecedented 11th-hour session of the General Assembly to try to ram through a Return-To-Gerrymandering constitutional…

Jason Miyares Crime Fighter V. Soft-on-Crime Jay Jones
by Kerry Dougherty Polls are all over the place this year in Virginia. But the fact that Jay Jones is within 20 points of Attorney General Jason Miyares is not just a scandal, it’s a sign that bitter partisans in the Democrat party care more about a D after a name than public safety. For…

Panicked Virginia Democrats Embark on Naked Power Grab
by Kerry Dougherty Dems in Virginia are in a panic over the Republican momentum, which increases with each new Jay Jones scandal. So they’re yanking Winsome Earle-Sears off the campaign trail and forcing her to stop raising funds during a “special” General Assembly session scheduled to begin on Monday. It’s special all right. It’s a…

Jay Jones: Now the Target of a Criminal Investigation
by Kerry Dougherty Whoa! Jay Jones is in deep trouble. Just when the Dems’ attorney general nominee was hoping the daily headlines about his scandals might abate, he’s back in the news. And it’s worse than ever. According to Nick Minock, reporting for ABC News, Elliott Bondurant, a courageous New Kent County Circuit Court Judge…

No Kings: Aging Hippies with a Bloodlust
by Kerry Dougherty Like most normal Americans I was too busy on Saturday to even notice the No Kings protests. I was doing what many of us do on Saturdays in the fall: Watching college football. In fact, I’d forgotten all about the protests until I checked Facebook Sunday night and saw that several of…

Ditch the School, Take the Vacay
by Kerry Dougherty I read this post on X the other day. It was posted by a school principal. I wanted to argue. Instead, I reminisced about one of the happiest days of my life. Here it is: One morning, in the spring of my junior year, my dad offered to drive me to school.…

Jay Jones: Democrat Nightmare That Won’t Go Away
by Kerry Dougherty It’s been one week since we learned that in 2022 Jay Jones wrote psychotic text messages that claimed he wanted to put two bullets in the head of GOP leader Todd Gilbert. One week since the Virginia elections were turned upside down after we learned that the Democrats had nominated a murderous…
