Virginia’s Democratic Party might better be described as the Bolsheviks. After all, their approach to governance seems to be Lenin’s revolutionary practice of “the ends justify the means.” 

A prime example is the Democrats’ bid to redraw the commonwealth’s congressional districts. First, they created a constitutional amendment whose language was corruptly misleading and unlawfully adopted contributing to its narrow approval last month.

That outcome was immediately stayed by one judge and then rejected by the Virginia Supreme Court. The Bolsheviks reportedly want to retaliate by lowering its mandatory retirement age to 53 and restock the court with sympathetic jurists. 

Failing that, the Bolsheviks want the U.S. Supreme Court to endorse their shenanigans. Let us pray that they are repudiated again and the wellspring of America’s pro-freedom revolution 250 years ago will cease to be threatened by a Leninist one.
