RT @GregAbbott_TX: This is sheer evil. Its murder of a child born alive. No one supporting this can say they care about humanity.

Ive been repeatedly asked to comment on Amanda Chases most recent offensive statements, as reported on Sunday in the RTD. Quite honestly, I just dont have the time to address every crazy thing she says. It would be a full time job.

@GovernorVA needs to repeal the mask mandate for all Virginians and reopen Virginia. And he needs to do it immediately. When common sense, science and experience converge, it becomes evident that only politics is standing in the way! https://t.co/OpExIxCef7

Every day free speech is under attack at colleges and universities and conservative on campuses across the country are at the mercy of the hecklers' vetoes. #rileygaines is incredibly brave for standing up for what is right. (1/3) https://t.co/3KGtpaYAPM

Had a great morning greeting folks who came from all around the Commonwealth to express their support of the Second Amendment. A particular thank you to residents of my district who came from Page, Warren, Rappahannock, Shenandoah, Rockingham Counties and Harrisonburg. 1/2 https://t.co/g7LthzftO0

Isn’t this rich… the Dems rail against what they say is the discriminatory impact of requiring an id to vote … YET Senate Dems themselves require not only a photo id, but ALSO, a gov’t vaccination card to attend their fundraising events. Hypocrisy at its finest. https://t.co/m6lXgIi3iF
