Carpetbagger Spanberger wages war against bipartisan fairness in Virginia

The National Security Hour on America Out Loud Podcast features a fiery discussion with Virginia Republican strategist Sean Kenyon, who lambasts Governor Abigail Spanberger and the Democratic-led redistricting effort in Virginia as a brazen act of political gerrymandering that undermines constitutional fairness. Kenyon argues that after a $80 million campaign, Democrats passed a constitutional amendment to overhaul Virginia’s nonpartisan redistricting process, resulting in a 10-1 Democratic advantage in the U.S. House delegation—despite the state being nearly evenly divided. He frames this as a betrayal of rural and conservative Virginians, calling Spanberger a 'carpetbagger' from New Jersey with no roots in the state, and highlights her role in pushing divisive policies like expanded collective bargaining and increased hotel taxes. The episode also critiques broader cultural trends, including the erosion of historical memory through monument removals, the decline of critical thinking in education, and the left’s alleged tolerance of political violence. The hosts warn that such actions threaten the rule of law and democratic norms, urging conservatives to double down on truth, virtue, and education instead of retaliatory extremism.
