Joe Rogan dethroned by anti-Trump podcast in the charts

Serving in government is an honorable profession. The Northern VA Regional Comm has put together a number of employment links for local and regional government jobs. If Uncle Sam doesn't want you there are plenty of local governments who can use your experience. open.substack.com/pub/novaregi...

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

Things that will not end well for $500, Alex.

I thought they were all self-made rugged individualists who didn’t rely on socialism.

So interesting…

Not even the legal age to drink. Now an adviser at US State Department. Holy 💩 www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Because Virginia AG Jason Miyares chose party loyalty over Virginians' wellbeing, this order unfreezing medical research funding doesn't apply in VA. Miyares refused to join the suit on medical research, and the order only applies to plaintiff states. We need leaders willing to stand for Virginians.

During President Donald Trump’s first term, the Education Department held DEI training. Now, in the opening days of Trump’s second term, dozens of employees who attended that diversity program have been placed on leave because of it.

Catholic Charities and Lutheran Service provide critical services. Guess they are not the “right” kind of Christians. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

I love my governor. JB Pritzker for the win—and for the epic troll. 😂

This would be bad. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Only two weeks on the job, and Elon Musk is already the worst president America has ever had.

So Trump hurt America's relationship with Canada and made markets wobble all to "get" Canada to do things Canada had announced back in December in coordination with the Biden administration, do I have that right?

Canada’s Conservative Party leader. Post on the left is Pierre 3 months ago after our election. Post on the right is today.

To my 🇺🇸 neighbors here is a simple way to support our friends north of the border in 🇨🇦 to express our opposition to the ill advised tariffs. Support a Canadian business. #tariffsarestupid madeinca.ca

Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.

Todays rich irony: Harris didn’t invite JD Vance to the naval observatory. So MAGA is furious. Oh by the way in 2020 Trump didn’t even do a Transition The hypocracy is a feature

The world's richest man managed to take $190 million away from a *child cancer research center* with his posts yesterday. Funding now stripped in the new bill.

Wow! Canadian House of Commons Member Charlie Angus just went off on Donald Trump for bullying Canada and threatening its sovereignty. One of the best speeches I’ve seen a while in any country. I cover it here youtu.be/CsnzmM7bEAU?...

Traveling into #Dulles Airport got a ramp side view of the new @unitedairlinesual.bsky.social new terminal. Excited to see the progress.

The refugee children we met a decade ago who were forced to flee #Syria as result of #Assad atrocities.

Thinking on all the Syrian refugees we met in refugee camps due to Assad’s atrocities. Hope recent events will bring them peace and hopefully freedom to return home.

With many thanks to the Regional Elected Leaders Initiative (RELI) at the George Mason University - Schar School of Policy and Government for recognizing my contributions to the region. Honored to lead the Northern Virginia Regional Commission working with our dedicated elected leaders and staff.

North Carolina will be sued.

This week, the Senate must move forward on a disaster assistance law. Businesses will permanently close unless we get this done soon. Let’s pass robust support for folks impacted by Helene and other natural disasters.
