Virginians are tired of the chaos coming out of Washington.

They’re ready for a unified team of leaders who will put Virginia first.

Something is fundamentally wrong with America when millions of dollars can’t buy you a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat, the respect of your children, the silence of your baby mammas, or a functional penis implant.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Rep. Maxwell Frost perfectly points out the clear lack of oversight of Elon's damage he could be causing to our government.
