ICYMI: Republican Glenn Youngkin defeated Democrat Terry McAuliffe in the Virginia gubernatorial race this week, adding to the ranks of Republican governors prepared to fight back against Washington’s big-government agenda.
Youngkin: “For too long we've been expected to shelve our dreams, shelve our hope, to settle for low expectations. We will not be a commonwealth of low expectations! We will be a commonwealth of high expectations!”
Gov. Larry Hogan is taking his plan to ‘refund the police’ in Maryland - a move which will pump $150 million into law enforcement agencies - beyond his home state. Gov.

The Biden Administration is reportedly considering a plan to pay $450,000 per person to many illegal immigrants, a move which would eclipse payments given to Gold Star families and 9/11 victims. The plan is understandably drawing major pushback from Republican lawmakers, who were quick to point out the glaring oversight of fallen veterans, their families, and 9/11 first responders..
