Republicans are doing the same thing they always do. They scream about how mail-in voting is a giant scam, so none of their voters use that method, and then when the mail-in voting highly favors the Democrats they cry about how it’s stolen and rigged.
BOYLE: Do you agree with the American people, or are they just wrong?
BESSENT: Look, the American people were torched under the Bide administration--
BOYLE: Oh my goodness. I wish I had a dollar for every time you bring up Biden's name. If I did I might have as much money as you have. Consumer sentiment is at an all time low

Virginia’s only legislator ever convicted of selling his office is running for mayor of Newport News.
Former GOP Delegate Phillip Hamilton did 8 years in federal prison for taking $40,000 a year from Old Dominion University in exchange for budget amendments funding his own job.
He picked the office out of a hat. His words.
This is the state of the VA GOP.
Ethical Decision-Making: The Hidden Cost of Silence
Many organizational failures are preceded by silence long before they become visible crises.
Employees may observe:
ethical concerns,
procedural risks,
or operational vulnerabilities,
yet remain silent because the interpersonal consequences of speaking feel too high.
From an I/O psychology perspective, ethical behavior is heavily influenced by organizational climate—not simply individual morality.
Psychological safety influences whether employees:
report concerns,
challenge questionable decisions,
and communicate risk upward.
In my upcoming book: Psychological Safety at Work: Through the Lens of Industrial/Organizational (I/O) Psychology, An Approach to Trust, Learning, and Organizational Performance, I discuss how organizations often unintentionally create conditions where self-protection overrides ethical voice behavior.
The question leaders should ask is not:
“Do employees recognize problems?”
It is:
“Do employees believe speaking up is psychologically survivable?”
