It will be interesting to see how the Youngkin experience works out for Virginia voters. Not a fan of executive orders but we have thrown any sense of comprise out for the state and US congressional bodies.

The sun rose in the east today... and a Republican took credit at home for something they called "socialist" in Washington.

Don’t think someone should take credit for something they didn’t vote for, but I also don’t think someone should lie and say Republicans believe infrastructure spending is “socialism”.

The release came three days after Hinson voted “no” and delivered a floor speech in the US House criticizing the bill. Hinson also compared the infrastructure bill to Marxism in her Nov. 8 press release.

“It’s the biggest leap toward socialism this nation has ever seen—it takes the Marxist ideology that once only existed in textbooks and makes it law in the United States of America,” she said.

 

:dunno

By the way, this was in response to the reconciliation bill, NOT a straight infrastructure bill.  Comparing apples to apples helps a little.
