There are two kinds of spurs, my friend; those that come in by the door and those that come in by the window. -Tuco Benedicto Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez
🇺🇸 Just in case you forgot why you have a three-day weekend…
This is it.
Not the barbecues. Not the beach trips. Not the sales.
This is the reason.
The folded flag. The final salute. The ultimate sacrifice so the rest of us could be free.
This Memorial Day, we honor the fallen.
We remember their names. And we never take this freedom for granted.
Abigail Spanberger has made lying an art form.
If you believe the power to elect representation belongs to the people, & not to corrupt politicians, send @GovernorVA a message...
VOTE NO, Virginia! 🚫
Virginia,
Democrats are spending tens of millions of dollars to buy 4 congressional seats.
They’ve even resurrected President Obama in their quest to gerrymander the Commonwealth.
Get everyone you know in VA to vote 👉NO👈 — tomorrow — April 21st.
STOP:
🛑 The disenfranchisement of millions.
🛑 The silencing of rural communities.
🛑 The most egregious power grab in Virginia history.
You can do it. Just VOTE NO!
On my way to the grocery store this morning, I spotted this big sign in Prince William County.
Great to see local residents standing up and making their voices heard!
Today we can save our map, defend our voice, and stop this brazen power grab.
Today we send a loud message: People pick their politicians - not the other way around!
OTD,1775. Samuel Whittemore,aged 80 becomes a legend.
Whittemore working in his fields spotted an approaching British relief brigade, sent to assist the retreat from Concord. Whittemore loaded his musket and ambushed the British grenadiers of the 47th Regiment of Foot from behind a nearby stone wall, killing one soldier. He then drew his dueling pistols, killed a second grenadier and mortally wounded a third. By the time Whittemore had fired his third shot, a British detachment had reached his position; Whittemore drew his sword and attacked.He was subsequently shot in the face, bayoneted numerous times, and left for dead in a pool of blood. He was found by colonial forces, trying to load his musket to resume the fight. He was taken to Dr. Cotton Tufts of Medford, who perceived no hope for his survival. However, Whittemore recovered and lived another 18 years until dying of natural causes at the age of 98. -wiki.
Any other Virginians think it’s disrespectful for our supposed governor to actively campaign for a movement that seeks to rob 56 counties of their representation? She is literally campaigning to silence her own constituents for her party’s gain.
Awful.
