So far: The Guardian, WaPo, CNN, The Atlantic and NYT.

1. As some Democrats have run from transgender rights, Zohran Mamdani is showing what so many others have lacked: courage to lead with his values over pandering to focus groups.

The ad is one of the best things I've seen from a politician on transgender people.

"Winsome Earle-Sears has avoided talking about most issues. Her silence on issues is unprecedented in modern Virginia history.” Ouch!

Spanberger answers questions about policy. Earle-Sears does not.
This fits a pattern where Earle-Sears has avoided taking about most issues. Her silence on issues is unprecedented in modern Virginia history.

While Trump and his allies play games with Virginians’ livelihoods, @jasonmiyaresva.bsky.social won't stand up to him.

As AG, I’ll take action to stop any illegal firings, because our federal workers deserve better than to be pawns in Trump's political games.

“This is absolutely a violation of federal law.”

Trump's layoffs could lead to major problems with funding for the education of disabled students. And some say, potential violations of federal law.
