Virginia’s far-left governor approves gerrymandered congressional map giving Dems 10 of 11 seats– gellerreport.com

Watch Virginia closely. The far-left Gov. Abigail Spanberger is setting out on a path that other Democrats will follow, and that the party will roll out nationally if it wins in 2028. It is a path to authoritarian leftist control and the destruction of our freedoms. Besides the gerrymandered congressional map, she has also allowed for mail-in ballots that will allow enough fraud to keep the Democrats in power forever. Meanwhile she is lightening penalties for violent crime and forbidding local police to cooperate with ICE. This will ensure a terrorized native population and the flooding of Virginia with migrants who will further ensure the left’s total control of the state. And for the left, Virginia is just the beginning.

“5 VIRGINIA CONGRESSMEN: Democrats are rejecting voters to gerrymander our state,” by Rep. Rob Wittman, Fox News, March 2, 2026:

Virginia voters settled the redistricting question in 2020. Nearly two-thirds of Virginians amended our Constitution to create an independent redistricting commission and take map-drawing power away from politicians. The message was unmistakable: stop the gerrymander. Stop letting politicians choose their voters.

Democrats applauded that reform. House of Delegates Speaker Don Scott praised fairness and transparency. Senate President pro tempore L. Louise Lucas declared it would ensure “an equitable, transparent and bipartisan process to ensure our electoral maps are drawn fairly.” Rep. Don Beyer said plainly, “Gerrymandering is cheating. It allows politicians to select their voters, when it should be the other way around.” They were right.

In 2019, Abigail Spanberger said, “Gerrymandering is detrimental to our democracy. Opposing gerrymandering should be a bipartisan priority.” While running for governor, she added, “Short answer is no. I have no plans to redistrict Virginia.”

That was before she took office.

As of late Sunday, at least three U.S. military members will be coming home in caskets — among the first casualties of the Trump administration’s “regime change” campaign in Iran. There will “likely be more” to come in the days ahead, President Donald Trump warned. He said U.S. operations in Iran will continue until all of the administration’s objectives are met. The details of those objectives remained foggy Sunday.

While the days-old military operation is far from Mission Accomplished, it did check off a significant box: taking out Iran’s evil-as-poison supreme leader, or the “avuncular and magnanimous” religious scholar as the inexhaustible clown car that is the New York Times described a guy who legitimately could be likened to Adolf Hitler. Old Uncle Khamenei is dead now, and presumably checking into hotel hell (You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave).

For now, the Iranian regime’s military is fighting back hard, firing missiles and launching drones in at least 11 countries, including Israel and Kuwait. Tony Dokoupil and Matt Gutman have the latest.

Iran’s Tyrants Draw Media Goo and Soft Questions– www.newsbusters.org

President Trump ordered a new offensive in Iran over the weekend, taking out top Iranian tyrants like Ayatollah Khamenei. Bizarrely, our media composed puffy obituaries for the Ayatollah and gave Iran’s foreign minister a softball platform when they all pressure each other to be ever more hostile in questioning our elected president.

MRC President David Bozell and NewsBusters Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro joined the show. Nick pointed out that over the weekend, The Washington Post ran an obituary titled: “Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader, is dead at 86.” The paper warmly remembered the brutal Islamic dictator as a “avuncular figure” with an “easy smile” and a love for “Persian poetry.” Why must American press outlets swoon over our enemies like that?

The Astara Border Crossing between Iran and Azerbaijan has seen increased traffic over the last few days by foreign nations, as many continue to seek an exit from Tehran amid continued US and Israeli attacks.

The increased crossing traffic comes after the Azerbaijani government announced on Saturday that it would open the crossing to enable its nationals trapped in Iran to safely evacuate, as well as allow foreign nations to transit through.

As many as 500 Russian citizens are rumoured to have crossed into Azerbaijan as part of the new initiative, with eyewitnesses reporting seeing large groups passing security checkpoints.

Iranian exiles in London are singing the Israeli national anthem, Hatikvah. And in Iran, Iranians are chanting support of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Incredible.

When the Iranian people are finally free from the barbaric butchers who stole their country, Iran and Israel will do wondrous things together. That day, however, has not yet come. The Iranian Islamic regime is still in power, albeit drastically weakened. There is a great deal more that must be done. The celebration in London is a hint of how much could be accomplished by a partnership between Israel and a free Iran.

US President Donald Trump has dismissed polls indicating that a majority of Americans disapprove of his decision to attack Iran.

“I think that the polling is very good, but I don’t care about polling. I have to do the right thing. I have to do the right thing. This should have been done a long time ago,” Trump told the New York Post in an interview published on Monday.

Mamdani Says Quiet Part Out Loud About Dems’ Tax-Hike Agenda– thefederalist.com

Believe it or not, Zohran Mamdani just did conservatives a great favor. Within weeks of taking office, he has exposed one of Democrats’ great deceptions over the past three-plus decades: that middle-class families can receive myriad government benefits and programs without having to pay more in taxes for them.

By conceding that his costly agenda may require raising taxes not only on “the rich” but the middle class, New York’s novice mayor broke one of the major taboos of left-wing politics. His proposal for a nearly 10 percent property tax hike on hard-working families epitomizes the “Kinsley gaffe,” in which a politician inadvertently speaks the truth — in this case, that the Democrat agenda necessitates massive tax increases on the middle class.

The Mirage of ‘Pro-Worker AI’ via Public Policy | American Enterprise Institute– www.aei.org

Blurb:

Calls for governments to push “pro-worker AI” sound appealing. The idea is simple: If policymakers deftly guide how the technology develops, they can make sure it helps workers instead of replacing them. What’s not to like?

Here’s your trouble: Technology almost never works that neatly. Its effects on jobs are usually messy, unpredictable, and shaped by millions of decisions from businesses and entrepreneurs—not by a policy plan designed in Washington.

That’s a core point in a recent critique by economist Joshua Gans of a proposal from Daron Acemoglu, David Autor, and Simon Johnson to steer AI toward worker-friendly uses. Gans says the idea runs into a basic contradiction. The proposal defines “pro-worker” technology as something that makes human capabilities and expertise more valuable. But those things are valuable partly because not everyone has them. If a new technology spreads skills more widely, it may help more workers overall—while at the same time reducing the pay advantage of those who once had rare skills.

English rock band Radiohead told ICE to “go f— yourselves” on Friday after one of their songs had been used in a video mourning the victims of illegal immigrant crime.

Radiohead issued a public statement to multiple news outlets condemning the use of their song “Let Down” in a pro-ICE video, one of multiple recent incidents of artists objecting to their music being used in pro-ICE videos.

“We demand that the amateurs in control of the ICE social media account take it down. It ain’t funny, this song means a lot to us and other people, and you don’t get to appropriate it without a fight. Also, go f— yourselves… Radiohead,” the band said, according to NBC News and other news outlets.

Much has been in the news of late regarding fake daycares, fake autism therapy centers, and fake hospices. The scale of the alleged fraud is almost unbelievable, on the order of tens of billions. Since none of these businesses produces legitimate goods in a voluntary transaction with a customer, the money they collect serves to bid up the cost of goods and services for everyone, while contributing nothing to total economic output.

The idea of building actual things people value, like a Ford or Toyota, seems almost quaint, and it’s hard to say if those who do so are heroic or pitiable. Serving actual customers and making a profit is hard, and there’s certainly the temptation, in a general decline, to “if I can’t beat them, join them, and get what’s mine.”

While you may have heard of crack houses, have you heard of “crack tents?” This is the latest phenomenon in the drug community, and it comes at a cost for these addicts. While you may have also assumed living in squalor on a public street is free, some encampments charge rent, with gangs being the landlords.

This is what the left calls compassion, as they allow these people to continue living out their degeneracy for the world to witness. In reality, though, it’s anything but.

In Los Angeles, gangs have taken over many tent communities where they collect rent and deal drugs.

WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump on Monday (Mar 2) said he is not ruling out sending US troops into Iran, while threatening a new, “big wave” of attacks.

The 79-year-old Republican has long campaigned against decades of US military entanglements in the Middle East, but ordered a large-scale war against Iran starting Saturday.

While so far the assault has focused entirely on aerial attacks by missiles and bombs, Trump refused to rule out sending ground troops – something far riskier in terms of possible casualties.
