Not sure why this otherwise excellent piece pulls its punches. These are decisions made by the “MAGA-lite” Youngkin administration. How Virginia reacts to the Trump administration’s devastating attacks on social services programs (including the VA health system) is inextricably linked to the outcome of the November elections. I can assure the author and my fellow readers that should “full MAGA” Earle-Sears be elected, this is just the start. So, it’s not really how “the state” reacts, it’s how the Virginia electorate reacts.

Thank you for writing sir. Valid questions and points, all.

Seems like worthwhile questions for some journalists to ask Youngkin, Sears, Reid, and Miyares instead of continually printing puff pieces and photo ops...... just a thought.
