They say Virginia is for lovers, but the Commonwealth is developing into a state of political chaos. Poll: Northam has majority African American support amid blackface scandal and Lt. Governor is denying sexual assault allegations.
Meanwhile, there is one Virginia I am sending my love 😍 to as we approach Valentines and also prepare to celebrate her birthday.
90+-year-old Ginger or Ginny as I like to call her may no longer be a dear neighbor, but she has not been forgotten by #MusselSuckers and #ClamDiggers alike, who will continue to admire Virginia albeit from a distance.

Since President Trump was sworn into office, his party has turned its back on their oversight responsibilities protect him. Congressional Democrats are working for #WeThePeople to help bring accountability back to Washington, DC.
Everyone knows the Republican mascot is an elephant, but can anyone decipher what the head of that party is saying, or thinking and does @realdonaldtrump have a leg to stand on? Things may not be as they initially appear and perhaps even looking grim.
POTUS is expected to call for unity in his attempt at reset after two years of partisanship deep divide and personal attacks. #SOTU will come with a large serving of partisan divide which could lead to another government shutdown or to an emergency declaration over the #Mexico border, but what about the #Canada northern border?
