The Morning Report — 4/ 22/26

Good morning kids, So Virginians went to the polls and voted, or allegedly "voted" to redraw their congressional map in such a way as to prevent anyone but Democrats from winning any seat ever again...

Virginia Democrats’ legally suspect and deceptively worded referendum now gives their allies in the legislature the ability to redistrict the state ahead of the 2026 midterms. The party’s proposal seeks to remake the commonwealth from a six Democrat-five Republican map to a 10 Democrat-one Republican map and effectively disenfranchise millions of rural Virginians in the process.

In addition to dishonest ballot language about “fairness,” the referendum also enjoyed heavy support from the left’s dark money network. A Federalist analysis from earlier this month discovered that more than 90 percent of the funds being poured into the left-wing group backing the amendment (Virginians for Fair Elections) came from outside the state.

According to the Virginia Public Access Project (VPAP), Virginians for Fair Elections received more than $38 million from D.C.-based House Majority Forward (HMF). HMF notably boasts ties to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and House Democrat leadership.

... I wrote "allegedly voted" above, because as we know all too well, the Democrat party and leftist organizations have the ability and no compunctions to rig, cheat, steal and do whatever they can to win by any means necessary, since they are deluded in the twisted worldview that they and they alone have absolute moral authority and Gott mit uns as their predecessors/kissing cousins from the NSDAP had on their belt buckles, to organize society as they see fit.

As CBD and I discussed on the latest episode of the podcast (linked here) as well as in the sidebar and on the outlets/apps listed at the bottom of the post) Abigail Spanberger is an evil harridan. But make no mistake, she is no outlier nor a one-off. The Democrat Party is out to destroy America as founded, and regardless of their excuses and mythologies always to acquire and wield absolute power, period full stop.

Until my dying breath, everything wrong with this nation, all of the problems, discord, dissolution, dislocation violence, bloodshed and wastage of human life and human potential is directly the fault of, or has been exacerbated and made worse by orders of magnitude by the Democrat Left.

And when the problems are solved or at least well on the way to being solved well what do Democrats do, they gin up the discord or at the very least fake it.

This next item while hardly surprising makes the blood boil.

The Department of Justice announced Tuesday that a grand jury indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center for making fraudulent payments of millions of dollars to members of the Ku Klux Klan and other neo-Nazi organizations.
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said at a news conference that the 11-count indictment filed in an Alabama federal court alleged the left-wing nonprofit had in the past decade paid at least $3 million to eight members of the far-right groups.
One leader of the 2017 Unite the Right protest in Charlottesville, Va., received roughly $270,000 over an eight-year period. Neither that person nor others were identified in the 14-page indictment. Another embedded in a neo-Nazi organization was paid $1 million to steal 25 boxes of the hate group’s documents . .
. . . Starting in the 1980s, the SPLC began using informants who had infiltrated various groups.
But Blanche said in the press conference that the nonprofit never informed law enforcement that it was “paying off the Klu Klux Klan” or other extremist groups.
Several of the informants were also being paid while simultaneously being featured in SPLC publications — including on its public-facing “Extremist File” webpage — as members of the hate groups.
Prosecutors alleged in the indictment that the informants, or “field sources,” were also “engaged in the active promotion of racist groups.”

Have a great day!
