Incoming Democrat Gov. Abigail Spanberger appoints DEI director who cheered on dismantling Constitution
Story by Ireland Owens • 16h

Democratic Virginia Governor-elect Abigail Spanberger has appointed a chief diversity officer who previously appeared to agree with comments about parts of the U.S. Constitution needing to be dismantled.

Spanberger announced the appointment of Dr. Sesha Joi Moon to serve as the Commonwealth of Virginia’s chief diversity officer and director of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) on Tuesday, saying in a statement that Moon’s “experience across government, education, and the nonprofit sectors gives her firsthand insight into the ways in which we can build a stronger, safer, and more prosperous Virginia for every family.” However, during part of an August 2024 appearance on Raben’s “The Ask” podcast, Moon appeared to agree with Whitney Tome, the managing principal at Raben, after Tome claimed that she thinks some parts of the U.S. Constitution should be dismantled.
 
“Even the fundamental structure of our Constitution is flawed, like everybody quotes ‘we the people’ [and] all the things, and I’m with us, generally speaking, but I also have to look and say like ‘yeah but there’s a lot of things in the Constitution that didn’t say I was a person,'” Tome said during the podcast.

“Correct!” Moon said.

Even Mamdani hasn't stooped so low as to hire an anti-Constitutionalist - YET!

The state itself should be sued for unconstitutional racial discrimination.

Now she wants to purge any Youngkin appointees who still might sit on boards/commissions, apparently. No word on whether she'll make her people sign a loyalty oath, but it wouldn't surprise me.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
