I’m a registered Democrat, but their lack of effort on behalf of the American people has me furious. Is there any viable third party out there? I don’t want to vote to Democrats or Republicans.

I’m Abigail Spanberger. I grew up walking the halls of J.R. Tucker High School. I spent years as a CIA case officer, a Congresswoman, and now, I’m running to be Virginia’s next Governor.

Watch our first TV and Digital ad of the general election:

news story about how the MN shooter and wife operate a private armed security company.

THREAD: The assassinations in Minnesota highlight a dirty secret hardly ever mentioned in the news: U.S. has 1.1 million private police officers. There is an unprecedented footprint of privately organized violence that is doing all sorts of things most people have no idea about.

Stay peaceful! But if you have the opportunity to rip off their masks and photograph them, do it. They will try to make nationwide peaceful protests look like a bunch of violent anarchists are trying to destroy the country, and clips of anything burning will be played on endless loops by the media.

Elon Musk’s reputation must be beyond rehabilitation It's time to end the myth of his genius once and for all

Elon Musk gutted the federal government, dismantled key institutions, and cut off food and medicine to some of the poorest people on the planet.

By leaving DOGE, he’s trying to restore his reputation and rescue his struggling businesses. He should never be allowed to recover.

"They had Mexican flags!!! People should only be allowed to to have the Stars and Stripes, not flags of a countries we were once at war with!!! They should be arrested for this!!!"

ICE causing fires from their own tear gas and flash grenades, don’t get it twisted. They’re the ones causing damages to cities.

A real life American Hero... not hiding behind a mask. I bet soon we will know his name. We salute you brother for your civil courage and the eloquence.

LAPD when they think no one’s looking

I’m Abigail Spanberger. I grew up in Virginia and was raised by a nurse and a law enforcement officer.

Service runs deep in my family — and it’s guided every step of my journey, from the CIA to Congress. Now I’m running for Governor to keep putting Virginia families first.

EXCLUSIVE: We dug up a video of Donald Trump trashing Qatar in 2017 calling them “funders of terrorism.” I’m sure he would hate if this clip changed their mind to give him a $400 million plane - so definitely don’t repost it.

Virginia, early voting in the primary is officially underway!

While you won’t see my name on your ballot until November 4th, now is the time to make your voices heard for candidates up and down the ballot.

Missed a spot

As the daughter and granddaughter of Veterans, I know the sacrifices Virginia’s servicemembers make.

I’ll always stand up for our military families — especially as the Trump Admin targets the VA, threatening care for those who’ve served. #MilitaryAppreciationMonth

How Libraries Are Faring Under the Trump Administration Amid Detrimental Funding Cuts https://twp.ai/4ilxfz

SHAUN OF THE DEAD was released 21 years ago this week. Acclaimed as one of the great British comedies and the first part in Edgar Wright’s Cornetto Trilogy, the behind-the-scenes story is a slice of Fried Gold…

Warren County Board of Supervisors has instigated a hostile takeover of the Samuels Public Library and are doing slash and burn policies to force their standards on the community that uses the library. Can a governor intervene on the citizenry’s behalf in a county matter?

Mail them to the Secretary of the Navy with a letter explaining why you are returning them. I do thank you for your service to our country ♥️

I want one and I’m a cat person 😻

Minnesota lost a legend yesterday in wildlife photographer Jim Brandenburg. Gwen and I are sending our love to his family.

Here’s his photo ‘Chased by the Light’ taken in Ely.

The Youngkin-Sears administration has proposed cuts to investments in Virginia’s school support staff.

As Governor, I’ll work to make sure our schools have the staff they need to make sure every student — no matter their zip code — can succeed.

‘The Interview’: Chuck Schumer on Democrats, Antisemitism and His Shutdown Retreat The Senate minority leader discusses the backlash to his vote on the Republican spending bill, how he sees his role within the party and his new book.

In this interview Schumer says he agrees with Trump’s decision to pull $400 million from Columbia. A university in his own state. And he’s unconcerned about the unlawful arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, one of his constituents.

He is a traitor who needs to resign.

If there's one thing I hear everywhere I go in Virginia, it's that the cost of living is too high.

You shouldn't have to choose between paying rent or buying groceries for the week. As Governor, I'll do everything in my power to make sure you don't have to make that choice.

How Trump's tariffs will impact Virginians They might cost Virginia over $2.1 billion annually, raising prices on food, clothes, cars and more.

Trump’s tariffs could cost Virginia an estimated $2 billion—and for what? To help Trump pay for massive tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans! I won’t let them go into effect without a fight.
