Our 2 senators are not much different than Joe Manchin or Sinema: Political opportunists that sway whichever way the wind is blowing. Any politician that is "fence straddling" or "reaching across the aisle" to a Dictatorship taking hold is aiding & abetting the collapse of this Democracy

I do not trust anyone who thinks “wokeism” is a bad thing ... Mark needs to wake up!

If what Warner said in Munich is true, why did Harris win Virginia? Why do Democrats hold the general assembly?

Why was the presidential race so close nationally?

I just saw Abigail Spanberger speak last night at a kickoff event for @jessanderson4va.bsky.social running for VA Delegate district 71. She quoted all the stats on Democratic Party’s momentum in Virginia. Warner had better not slow us down! We are pumped up & ready for Dems to win 2025 Virginia.

He's a conservative politician who is a member of the Democratic party.

“A “radical centrist” is dangerous. But, if our representative government had a structure for like 8 parties instead of just 2, centrism might be helpful?

Warner has voted for five Trump nominees so far: Bessett, Ratcliffe, Duffy, Burgum, and Rubio. Kaine voted for the Warner five, plus Noem and Collins. What did Warner and Kaine gain by reaching across the aisle?

I know Warner calls himself a Democrat, but he mostly votes/sounds like old school Republicans. I'm hoping he's still young enough to listen and learn from his constituents. We need him to stand firm like the "brick wall" in the VA Senate. Never, never cave to bullies.

I think Mark needs to retire. Dems. need to get loud and demand the coup stop and yell loudly at every camera and reporter to stop this coup and get musk out. I’m disgusted by Warner.
