If you received an email from Social Security celebrating passage of Trump's horrible bill, a few points: 1) it's in violation of a bunch of rules, the Hatch Act, etc.; 2) it's basically all lies; 3) the media hasn't reported on it. bluevirginia.us/2025/07/friday… h/t (((Jacob Bogage)))


It wouldn't be the 4th of July in Virginia without the Fairfax City parade - here's Mayor Catherine S. Read and council member Billy Bates bluevirginia.us/2025/07/friday…


Video of Fairfax City #4thofJuly Parade 2025: Fairfax Sheriff Stacey Kincaid, VA11 Dem nominee James Walkinshaw, Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, etc. bluevirginia.us/2025/07/friday…

Video: Fairfax City July 4, 2025 parade - Abigail Spanberger /Senator Hashmi /Jay Jones & Fairfax City Democrats bluevirginia.us/2025/07/friday…

This epitomizes so much that's wrong with social media - lies spread like wildfire because people mindlessly share the crap, like it, etc. (and social media algorithims boost the crap). Corrections to those lies? Good luck... bluevirginia.us/2025/07/friday… h/t Andrew Kaczynski



Flip and Defend-a-District 2025: Volume 5 (May Nivar, Cat Porterfield, Mario Haggerty, Del. Kathy Tran); The key, winnable race this week is HD57, held by a Republican delegate, but which Kamala Harris won by over 9 points last November. bluevirginia.us/2025/07/flip-a… h/t Delegate Rip Sullivan



Thanks to the Fairfax City Democrats for these great photos (including of Dems statewide ticket - Abigail Spanberger Senator Hashmi Jay Jones - plus VA11 Dem nominee James Walkinshaw) from the July 4th parade bluevirginia.us/2025/07/friday…




Great question by the NJ Democratic gubernatorial nominee, Mikie Sherrill, to her Republican opponent about Trump's continuing anti-Semitism. Same question could easily be posed by Abigail Spanberger (and/or a reporter) to Winsome Earle-Sears, btw... bluevirginia.us/2025/07/friday…


Hopefully every US Senator and US House member will hold a town hall (or multiple town halls) on this in coming days, weeks, months... bluevirginia.us/2025/07/friday… h/t Rep. Suhas Subramanyam (VA-10) (D-VA10)


Unlike most politicians, Rep. Don Beyer (D-VA08) nails it: YES, absolutely - Happy Independence Day! But ALSO: "Now more than ever we need to celebrate the incredible feat that is our democracy and stand up to defend it from all who seek to destroy it." bluevirginia.us/2025/07/friday…


So if Trump had used the "N-word" against African Americans, the WaPo headline would have said "Trump uses term viewed as a racist slur" instead of just "Trump uses a racist slur?" Anyway, great point by Marc E. Elias. bluevirginia.us/2025/07/friday…



"The legislation Donald Trump just signed into law...There's nothing beautiful about that — yet all 5 House Republicans from VA voted for it. They should be ashamed of themselves." - Abigail Spanberger bluevirginia.us/2025/07/senato…
