“Abigail Spanberger’s war on guns [is] a clear and present danger to Virginia’s Second Amendment rights,” AmmoLand Correspondent Tred Law declared. “Despite her carefully polished image as a moderate, Spanberger’s actions—and promises—reveal her to be one of the most extreme anti-gun candidates ever to seek Virginia’s highest office.
“From public rallies with Moms Demand Action to her enthusiastic support of California-style gun bans, Spanberger has made it clear: if elected governor, she will sign into law a sweeping slate of gun control measures that would strip law-abiding Virginians of their constitutional rights,” Law noted.
Now a new article by Fox News says the former congresswoman and CIA operations officer has been accused of ethics violations for failing to list her home, worth $1M, being transferred to a trust benefiting her children on financial disclosure reports to Congress:
“The campaign for Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears, who is aiming to replace incumbent GOP Gov. Glenn Youngkin, is calling the incomplete disclosures ‘a calculated lie,’ not an ‘accident.’ But, according to Spanberger’s campaign, the only asset contained in the trust is Spanberger’s personal residence, which is not required to be disclosed.”
As scandals go, that’s pretty weak tea, and anyone counting on it to be a showstopper and derail her campaign will be disappointed. And that’s too bad, because Marine veteran Earle-Sears promises to be as good on guns as Spanberger is bad.
“Marines know how to use guns, and I won’t ever support a red flag law!” she pledges on X.com. “The 2nd Amendment says, ‘shall not be infringed!’ #SemperFi.”
Spanberger, on the other hand, never saw a gun she didn’t want to grab. I’ve not made a point of following all the infringements she demands in detail because there are so many prohibitionist Democrat politicians out there, and I just don’t have the time, but here are a few items that have come across my desk over the years.
She bragged about her oath to the Constitution “put[ting] country first before party” while simultaneously bragging about all the ways she was undermining “the security of a free State.”From the original War on Guns site comes this demonstrable lie:
“Spanberger cited her background. A former officer in both law enforcement and the CIA, Spanberger said she grew up in a house filled with guns among a family of sportsmen. ‘I fully support the Second Amendment,’ she said. ‘It is a fundamental constitutional right, and I affirm that.’”
That must be why Moms Demand Action named her a “Gun Sense Candidate.”
And who is satisfied that all questions concerning the “14,000 votes [Spanberger found] for herself on a flash drive when she was behind in her race” have been completely answered?
For someone with her access to government power circles, inquiring minds want to know more about her stint teaching at “the Islamic Saudi Academy, which later fended off controversy after a valedictorian was charged with aiding al-Qaida.” The biggest concern her campaign, the Democrats, and the media (but I repeat myself) had about that and other irregularities was the Post Office screwed up, and the PAC that found out shouldn’t have.
If elected governor, Spanberger threatens to enact every infringement that comes across her desk, whereas Earle-Sears will serve as a veto bulwark against Democrat excesses. Every Virginia gun owner who cares about the Second Amendment needs to involve themself in this campaign and do more than post occasional internet comments.
First, don’t listen to apologists for gun trainers who support Democrats.
Then, inform yourself about what’s going on politically in Old Dominion, and there’s no better way to do that by becoming a member of the Virginia Citizens Defense League. These folks do a remarkable job promoting good legislation and mobilizing against bad, and they do it under the constraints of limited manpower and resources. They need you to help carry the burden, and if you think of what they do for you, it’s not that big an ask. Join them.
