In ruby red Shenandoah County VA, we had 70+ of us at an "overpass rally" for Ukraine. We were blown away (almost literally; it was gusty cold) by the supportive honking by I-81 truckers and cars as well as local traffic on Rt. 42. Slava Ukraini!

Today we had district-wide protests at Cline VA6 offices, demanding a town hall. The middle of a workday. At each of the four locations (Winchester, Harrisonburg, Staunton, Roanoke), there were well over 200 people. Candidate Ken Mitchell showed up in Winchester. Cline hasn't seen anything yet.

The breach extends further, giving Musk’s associates access to systems related to employee onboarding, job performance reviews, and healthcare management. This raises serious concerns about potential violations of federal privacy laws, including those protecting health information under HIPAA.

Elon Musk’s staffers have gained unauthorized access to sensitive government employee data by installing a server at the OPM. They now have access to USAJOBS, the federal hiring portal where applicants submit personal details such as Social Security numbers, home addresses, and employment histories.

It seems like the trick to negotiating with Trump is to realize he doesn’t have any idea what the current facts are. "Oh you want 10,000 troops?" says world leader who already deployed 15K. "Great 10k it is"

Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, wants 100,000 beds for mass deportations. Welcome to MAGA’s vision of freedom. 😡 Nothing says ‘land of the free’ like rounding up families and tossing them into tent camps. Building dreams? Nah, just building cages. 😢
