The National Guard deployment in DC is the subject of intense debate and concern over the Constitution.
But only one story I’ve heard gives good perspective from actual Guard troops deployed here.
It was on NPR, by Steve Walsh, of local station @WHRO.

2022: “Stop overreacting, they won’t overturn Roe.”
They did.
2023: “Stop overreacting, they won’t let women die rather than get an abortion.”
They did.
2024: “Stop overreacting, they won’t arrest women for miscarriages.”
They did.
2025: “Stop overreacting, they won’t turn women into incubators.”
They did.
2026: “Stop overreacting, they won’t attack mifepristone.”
They did, today.
Now: “Stop overreacting, they won’t go after birth control next.”
They will.
What the Artemis II astronauts did over the last 10 days was a testament to their bravery. And the fact that they traveled farther from Earth than anyone ever has, re-entered our atmosphere at more than 24,000 mph, and splashed down safely was a testament to human ingenuity. Thanks to everyone at @NASA for making this mission possible, and for taking us along for the ride.
The President lied about me today on social media. While he tries to distract from the soaring gas prices and economic worry he has caused, here’s what we are doing in Virginia.
I’ve signed dozens of bipartisan bills into law to address high housing, healthcare, and energy costs — and not the taxes the President and his allies are lying about. To name a few:
✅ Stopping predatory middlemen from driving up the cost of prescription drugs ✅ Incentivizing the construction of housing Virginians can actually afford ✅ Protecting families from covering the cost of energy infrastructure improvements ✅ Letting localities adopt affordable housing programs ✅ Incentivizing energy independence ✅ Investing in and growing our healthcare workforce ✅ Helping localities invest in new energy technology I’ve signed bills to accelerate $7.1 billion in capital investment projects that will bring more than 3,250 jobs to our Commonwealth — including taking the final step in a multi-year process to bring the second-largest economic development project ever in Southern Virginia. Instead of offering solutions to the problems he is both creating and actively making worse, the President scapegoats. He does it all the time. In Virginia, I am focused on providing stability for families, businesses, and communities — and delivering real results.
A reminder for all the pearl clutching Republicans who’ve suddenly decided that sexual misconduct is a red line…
Long before he was found liable of sexual abuse (which he was), your guy bragged openly about grabbing women by the pussy.
And you made him president.
Twice.
Virginians are getting out and voting YES across the Commonwealth for #SuperSaturdayVirginia!
Together, we can stop Trump’s power grab and let voters decide our elections — not MAGA politicians.

I'm an Infectious Diseases doctor which means I have to deal with the fallout of people who didn't vaccinate
I've seen tetanus, diphtheria, measles, mumps, meningitis
I don't recommend any of them
I recommend vaccines
I introduced a bill to make sure Virginia schools teach the truth about January 6th. It was a violent, unprecedented attack on our Capitol - and our kids deserve facts, not fiction.
Virginia has a special election on April 21.
If the referendum is approved, Virginia will temporarily redraw its congressional map to fight back against GOP gerrymandering in TX, FL, MO and NC that is stealing House seats.
VOTE YES to fight back! 👊

Virginians are mobilizing all across the Commonwealth to stop Trump from rigging the midterm elections.

No great surprise. Netanyahu talked Trump into the disastrous war in Iran.
We cannot allow Israel to continue shaping U.S. military and foreign policy.
Next week I will be offering a resolution to stop U.S. military aid to Israel.
