Top Democratic Leader in Redistricting Fight Arrested

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/53467442

In a 45-page indictment filed in the Eastern District of Virginia, Lucas and six co-defendants were charged with conspiring to distribute and possess marijuana, conspiring to launder money, laundering money, and committing bribery by distributing large quantities of illegal marijuana under the auspices of her legal medical cannabis business.

Lucas, an 82-year-old great-grandmother, has served in the Virginia Senate since 1992. She faces five of the eight charges included in the indictment. These charges arrive five months after the FBI raided Lucas’s office in Portsmouth, Virginia, and the neighboring cannabis dispensary she co-owns.

There is no such thing as a "good conservative". Kash Patel drummed up fake marijuana charges against an 83 year old lady because she is leading a redistricting effort in a conservative gerrymandered area.

Conservatives are pure evil. Every single one of them is a traitor and should be dealt with as such.

You don't have to coordinate with others to combat conservatism. Be discrete. Be merciless. Be prolific.
