A second dead felon had their rights restored by the Gov of Virginia. This time with explicit instructions on how to register online to vote by mail (because let’s face it - it’s hard for dead people to do this in person - so we need accommodations!).
The order says that the executive completed review of the individuals case. So that means her team personally vetted this deceased individual and discovered she was dead and found it appropriate to restore her voting rights and provide her instructions on how to online register to vote - knowing she’s dead.
-or-
The order is a form order and mass restored a bunch of felons voting rights in July without reviewing anything.
Stay classy Virginia.
This doesn't make sense.
A guy sexually assaulted you around 1996.
And years later you LOVE his tv show.
I don't think so.
This tweet should prove to everyone that E. Jean Carroll is a LIAR.
And not a good one.
#CalebFlynn had the life most people pray for.
A beautiful home in Tipp City
A wife of nearly 16 years who adored him.
2 little girls who thought their daddy hung the moon.
A high-paying job at his in-laws’ family business (six figures, the kind most people never see).
A respected position as a worship leader.
Talent that once put him on American Idol.
He had stability, community, a future, and two daughters who still needed their father.
He threw every bit of it away for an affair with #AlleighaBotner. An affair built on 107,000 secret texts messages where he talked about wanting #AshleyFlynn gone so he could keep the girls, the paycheck, the reputation, and the other woman.
That relationship was never going to last. We know that ! It was messy, jealous, and already falling apart. The woman he chose over his family later sat on the stand and said she hates him.
Ashley Flynn didn’t deserve to lose her life so her husband could try to have it all without consequences.
He had everything.
He chose selfishness instead.
And two little girls now grow up without their mom because of it.
Those girls deserved better than this. #JusticeForAshleyFlynn #CalebFlynnTrial
BREAKING: Lawyers for the holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy case announce they will file a bar complaint against defense attorney Kevin Reddington over his conduct toward the juror
My husband, @mattvanswol has been locked out of his X account for refusing to delete a post he made this morning.
X locked his account for “abuse and harassment” which of course, he did not do.
In fact, he did the EXACT OPPOSITE and stated how horrible the video was and how awful it was to watch.
How can we “be the news” if we cannot post the news without being forced to delete it?
This is wrong.
People should be allowed to see the content Matt posts, regardless of whether it is hard to watch or not.
Personally, I often find it really difficult to watch some of the content Matt posts because it is so horrible.
And that’s exactly the point.
People need to KNOW things like this are happening… because without people like Matt, so many stories would not be national news and catalysts for change.
@x and @elonmusk please fix this.
A statement from the family of Ashley Smith Flynn:
Today's verdict brings justice and accountability for Ashley's death and our family is deeply grateful to everyone who helped bring us to this moment.
However, no verdict can bring Ashley back, give the girls back their mother, or erase the pain our family has endured. The cruelty of what happened to Ashley, and the things we've been forced to hear and relive, have at times felt unbearable.
But through all of it, we've held tightly to this truth. Ashley's life will not be defined by the way it ended. She'll be remembered for the way she lived.
Ashley loved Jesus with her whole heart. Her faith wasn't simply something she simply spoke about. It was how she lived. She loved people well, found joy beyond her circumstances, prayed boldly for her family, and wanted her life to point people to Jesus.
Most of all, she loved being a mom. She prayed over her girls, taught them to love God, and showed them what it looked like to live with faith, kindness, joy, and grace.
We refuse to let the evil that ended Ashley's life have the final word in her story. Our faith does not erase our grief, but it carries us through it.
We know Ashley is home with the Lord she loved and served. So as this chapter closes, our prayer is that Ashley's story does not end with a verdict.
We pray it continues through her girls, our family, and every person touched by the way she lived.
If you want to honor Ashley, love people well, pray boldly for your family, choose joy, and point people to Jesus.
We are deeply grateful to the jury for their careful attention and service, and to the Miami County Prosecutor's Office, the Tipp City Police Department, the FBI, BCI, and every investigator and advocate who worked tirelessly to seek the truth.
Thank you to everyone who has prayed for, loved, and supported our family.
We ask for privacy now as we continue healing and loving Ashley's girls the way she would want them loved.
Please remember Ashley. Not for how she died, but for how beautifully she lived.
