Unity. There's a belief that when all appears lost and our backs are truly against the wall, our huge differences dissipate like a phantom. Our nation overcomes in the end, through the power of unity. We unite and, in our unity, we beat down all enemies. It is the quintessential American way of beating the odds and finding a way to win. But this time, in order to win, we are being asked to separate, to disengage from one another, [...]

Over the past several years, we have witnessed the proliferation of left wing groups in Virginia. With growing alarm, we watched the escalation of their aggressive intimidation tactics, and through it all, tracked the seemingly bottomless stream of money coming in from leftist billionaires, leftist organizations and even foreign governments (i.e. the Chinese).
