Read MoreGov. Northam called Virginia’s state legislators into a special session this week to address areas that need “critical support” during a time of social unrest and the COVID-19 crisis. When the average person hears the word “critical,” legalization of marijuana is probably not top of mind.
Even so, that’s exactly what several left-wing leaders are pushing as top priority. In an Aug. 11 letter, for instance, Richmond Mayor Levar Stoney urged General Assembly leaders to “take immediate action” to “legalize marijuana” and establish a “tax system for recreational use.” Unfortunately, many people are genuinely confused by claims that regulating “recreational” marijuana will help, not harm, families.
We now have the distinction in Virginia of having a candidate for the General Assembly who has performed sex acts online for money. This isn’t pleasant to discuss—and yet it does need to be addressed, because not only does it reveal the fallout of a “sexual liberation” culture, but also the fact that major abortion groups are proudly defending this candidate. And it sheds light on corporate media complicity with leftwing politics.
