On this Independence Day, I would like to remind Charles and the @RoyalFamily that my 5th great-grandfather beat his 5th great-grandfather's butt.

I hope she steps on a Lego.
The sheer arrogance of certain Loudoun School Board members who told educators who have been waiting over 500 days for the board to pass collective bargaining to wait even longer (all summer long, in fact) is just astounding. Students, families, and educators deserve better.

I fight white supremacy because I won't let my 6th grade Black students be the next Tamir Rice. He was 12. He was in 6th grade.

Congratulations to @SuhasforVA. I do want to give a shoutout to @AtifQarni and @MichelleforVA10. Their passion for people and justice inspires me. It was an honor to meet both of you. #VA10

Yes, the bit about the teacher is sweet, but... allowing a child to manipulate the placement of other children is not an acceptable accommodation.
As part of my son's accommodations, he submits a list of 5 people from his grade that he'd like to have in his class next year, for social comfort. They ensure he gets 2+ of them as classmates. He just gave me his list. He put his teacher's name on the list. 😭 Teachers!❤️

Loudoun County's largest labor union is on the verge of getting collective bargaining. How many #CD10 candidates will show? @AtifQarni @DavidReidVA @SuhasforVA @MichelleforVA10

In fact, if you don't show up for teachers, don't have the nerve to ask for our endorsement. @DavidReidVA @SuhasforVA - I'm looking at you because I know the LEA has endorsed you and knocked doors for you in the past.

All I want for Teacher Appreciation Week is collective bargaining.

Every #CD10 candidate talks a good game about supporting teachers, but only @DavidReidVA , @EFillerCorn, & @AtifQarni came to the 'teacher table' at the LCDC's Blue Gala. To be fair to the rest of the candidates, our table was in the back corner of the adjoining room.

Stoked to share that my daughter is a co-first author of a paper in @Nature!
Stoked to share that our story on the nuclear entry mechanism of the HIV capsid through the nuclear pore complex has now been published in @Nature ! nature.com/articles/s41586-0… 1/3

Loudoun County went blue in double digits over you(ngkin). Try running this by the General Assembly. I double dog dare you.
Virginia stands with Texas. @GregAbbott_TX is doing the job Joe Biden and his border czar refuse to do to secure our border. The Biden administration has turned every state into a border state. We must stop the flow of fentanyl, save lives, and secure our southern border.

It's almost cold enough for a middle school boy to wear pants.

Fair warning to LoCo Moms for Liberty - It's me. I'm the people. It's me.

Moms for Liberty would be happy to co-parent with a Christofascist government.

The best part of being blacklisted is that now I can do and say what I believe without fear of being blacklisted.

Parents are not an oppressed class. #protecttranskids #blm
As your Governor, I will always protect parental rights and stop bureaucrats, politicians and teachers unions from trying to raise our kids for us. I haven’t met a single parent who says I want to co-parent with the government. #ParentsMatter

If a VA teacher wants to display the VA flag in their classroom, do they need to give parents a 30-day notice under @GovernorVA's policy on sexually explicit material in the classroom? Asking for a friend.

On this Labor Day, SHOUT OUT to @LCPSjobs and @LCPSOfficial and the School Board for empowering supervisors to force employees to work beyond contract hours. Policy 7030 is an exploiter's dream! May the ghosts of my union brothers and sisters who have passed haunt you.
