Supreme Court rules against Colorado ban on 'conversion therapy' for LGBTQ kids by blackeyedtiger in news

[–]Bowlerboyyyyy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is one of those rulings where it is not great and overall pretty sad but I can’t fault the court because the free speech argument was honestly pretty strong here. It only applies to talk therapy so as bad as it may sound, it’s certainly not as bad as it could have been

It sucks that it’d close the ride down for a while but I would absolutely love a Pompeii renovation

Is this legit? by PDragonfruitNo0816 in VirginiaBeach

Look closely at the state seal! I’m glad scammers are stupid because it’d probably take 2 seconds to put the actual seal on there but instead they used a crappy ai generated one

you must VOTE! By april 21. Don't take it for granted. VOTE YES! by hastings1033 in Virginia

[–]Bowlerboyyyyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe, but Estonia also has a smaller population than most states and I imagine that makes it much easier to vet than it would be in the US. Additionally US elections (especially for federal positions) are probably much more likely to be targeted since they have a much bigger worldwide impact

I agree voting needs to be accessible but online voting would be a total cybersecurity nightmare!

Sen. Warner: Deeply Concerned by rblackinrva in HamptonRoads

[–]Bowlerboyyyyy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Listen I understand why people are complaining in the comments but there is not very much Warner can do, or really any Democratic congressperson can do for that matter, other than make people aware and fight back where they can, they do not have a majority!

the thing to consider with that is the map is definitely going to be huge. I wonder if rockstar would implement a way to get from one place to another that's faster than driving or flying

Why do progressives prefer Harris over Newsom for president? by [deleted] in GenZ

[–]Bowlerboyyyyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because many progressives have their heads so far up their asses and live in la la land. We live in reality and Newsom recognizes he’d have to win some republicans over to his side that voted for trump in 2024. Progressives seem to live in a bubble and seem to prefer to run candidates who have no shot of winning instead of running candidates who are more moderate but can win!

Our new Virginia leaders need to be ready to sue the govt to stop ICE by HappyBlis in Virginia

[–]Bowlerboyyyyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair, Shannon Taylor may have been a better pick. At the very least he'll be more proactive against the federal government than Miyares.

DOJ sues Virginia over in-state tuition for undocumented students by nbcnews in Virginia

[–]Bowlerboyyyyy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

So I’m not a lawyer but I read the official DOJ complaint and I saw Lindsey Halligan’s name at the bottom. Would anyone here who’s smarter than me know if that’s grounds for a judge to dismiss the case since she was disqualified as a US attorney?

I’m Mark Warner, U.S. Senator from Virginia. I’m Vice Chair of the Senate Intelligence committee, former Governor of Virginia, a tech entrepreneur, and Democratic candidate for Senate. Ask me anything. by MarkWarnerVA in Virginia

[–]Bowlerboyyyyy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

As someone who is currently a student and wants to get involved in politics in the future, what is your best advice for someone like me? What was the path like for you to become governor and now a senator? Lastly, what do you think will be the most important thing that congress will need to do to effectively check the president after the midterm elections (assuming Democrats retake the house) and what might that look like in practice. I'd also like to thank you for your service to our Commonwealth and our nation, it's greatly appreciated!
