Jr. said. “More Republicans like @berniemoreno calling Democrats out for their bull**** and propaganda right to their face.” In response to the first…

I write from a quiet, mountainous part of Central Europe. The scenery is idyllic, and the fall air is crisp. But much as the case has been in my other recent trips to the European continent, the sights I see and the conversations I hear are all underscored by a similar haunting concern: Will there even be a Europe, in any cognizable sense of the term, a century from now?

Last week, in the wake of the “October Surprise” release of Jones’ text messages from 2022 where he fantasized about shooting then-Republican Speaker of the House of Delegates Todd Gilbert and about Gilbert’s two children dying in his wife’s arms, we published a look into the substantial punitive power that a Virginia attorney general has—power that Jones could…
