Full house last week at the Regency Women of Democracy Town Hall in Haymarket!

It was a pleasure to join @pwcdanica.bsky.social and talk about our work in the legislature to protect Virginians and how to fight back against dangerous federal actions at this critical moment.

Can't imagine the youth will be too bummed about their high energy video app being banned when they can just log onto blue sky and read sentences written by elder millennials

I just filed my first bill for the 2025 Session! HB1601 will improve the data center siting process by requiring VA’s localities look at sound, environmental, & infrastructure factors for siting high-energy facilities. Time for community-focused development!

If you fell for the Blake Lively smear campaign, it’s time to get off social media. I’m dead serious. Go meditate in the mountains or something. Don’t get back online until you seriously reflect on how easily you were manipulated by an abuser trying to discredit his victim.

New report highlights data center risks in Northern Virginia The controversy over where and how to build data centers across Northern Virginia continues. State leaders held a town hall meeting to discuss a new report that raised some concerns. FOX 5's Nana-Sent...

Thank you @fox5dc.com.web.brid.gy for covering our data center forum with @pwcdanica.bsky.social! It was a great discussion, and I look forward to placing much-needed guardrails on the data center industry this coming session.

Two things:
1) Del. @jetforva.bsky.social and I will be hosting a town hall meeting from 5-6 p.m. this evening at Battlefield HS in Haymarket to discuss the JLARC "Data Centers in Virginia" report and our bills for next year.
2) Del. Thomas is (finally) on here now. Western PWC: give him a follow.

As we look forward to the 2025 session, I look forward to introducing legislation to put sensible guardrails on data center development in our communities based on JLARC's findings and recommendations.

On 12/9, the JLARC released their landmark study on data centers in VA. Many of us who are concerned about data centers have been eagerly anticipating this independent study. My team and I poured over this 156-page report, and we've assembled some of the most important data here.

I think we need to back off dunks on kevin mccarthy and properly appreciate his unique achievement in getting fired from a job nobody thought you could get fired from

Sure, Kevin McCarthy may have humiliated himself for Trump. Yes, it took him 15 tries to become Speaker. And, of course, he had to beg the dumbest, most racist people in Congress to vote for him. But on the bright side, he ended up with absolutely nothing.

I had such high hopes for Spoutible at launch but they’ve somehow managed to cultivate one of the worst user experiences I’ve ever seen. Plus I got banned for criticizing Bouzy’s appalling treatment of an SA victim.

For all the newskies...

Take a moment and breathe.

Let your guard down. This isn't the bad place.

This is the good place. It's safe here. It's safe to send me your credit card number, expiration date, and security code.

Eric Adams is amazing because when he won every media person was leaping over each to go β€œthis is the normal sane leadership that the political left doesn’t understand normal sane Americans crave” and then every day since that Eric Adams has been like β€œLeprechauns are real and I’m going to cook one”

That’s where I’m at. I always said I’d stay on Twitter til the end, but I never expected this. I deleted the app today when it finally sunk in that yes, he’s really going to allow people to circulate CSAM without any consequences.
