Democrats Now Want to ABOLISH the Virginia Government

The Virginia Supreme Court handed Democrats a stinging defeat — and instead of accepting it, they're floating the idea of blowing up the government entirely.
Last week, the court struck down Democrats' rushed redistricting referendum, ruling it unconstitutional and leaving the existing maps drawn after the 2021 process in place. Democrats had pushed the new plan specifically to engineer more favorable congressional and legislative districts in Virginia. The court said they broke the law by rushing the process, and so the existing map was restored before the new map could be certified.
And that's when things got unhinged.
The party considered all kinds of responses — including a scheme to force the retirement of every sitting justice on the Virginia Supreme Court. That's a perfectly normal reaction from a political party that claims they respect democratic norms, right?
But they weren’t done.
