Virginia Democrats thought they had this one in the bag — until the Supreme Court of Virginia hit the brakes. In a stunning one-sentence order, SCOVA refused to let Attorney General Jay Jones rush forward with certifying Virginia’s controversial redistricting referendum, dealing a major blow to the Left’s gerrymander power grab. And while the ruling was short, the message was loud: you don’t get to break the rules, ignore the Constitution, and then demand the courts clean it up on your timeline.

An illegal from El Salvador has been arrested for groping nine teen girls at a Fairfax County, Virginia, high school. The man is a 19-year-old junior at the school.
