And yet the Dems all still support him. VERY revealing.

Democratic candidate for Virginia Attorney General Jay Jones is facing scrutiny after text messages from 2022 surfaced in which he allegedly made violent threats against Republican colleagues, including former Virginia House Speaker Todd Gilbert.
The texts were reported Friday by National Review, which said it obtained the messages from Jones’ former colleague, Republican Delegate Carrie Coyner.

According to the report, Jones sent multiple messages to Coyner in August 2022, months after leaving the Virginia House of Delegates, in which he expressed violent intentions toward Gilbert.
“I will go to their funerals to piss on their graves … [to] send them out awash in something,” Jones wrote, according to National Review.

Jones reportedly went further, writing that if he were faced with Gilbert and two dictators along with a gun containing two bullets, “Gilbert gets two bullets to the head.”

In another message, he told Coyner, “Spoiler: put Gilbert in the crew with the two worst people you know and he receives both bullets every time.”

That's an old joke, and Republicans have even been known to use it on each other (when Newt Gingrich's relationship with the majority he built in Congress began to suffer, other GOP congressmen would say "Shoot Newt twice").

But more to the point, not all Dems are still supporting Jones. There has been a lot of talk in progressive communities I frequent about whether or not we really want him to win at this point. If you were half as informed about us as you are opinionated about us...
