What we feel happened today was that the judge acted as a 13th juror, one that we did not choose, and that he second guessed the jury's verdict.

Shocking texts from the Democratic nominee for attorney general of Virginia, Jay Jones, surfacing in which he wishes former Republican Virginia House Speaker Todd Gilbert would, quote, get two bullets to the head. The texts, first reported by National Review's Audrey Fallberg Jones sending the texts on August 8, 2022 to Republican House delegate Kerry Coiner. Jones, who at the time had recently resigned from his post in the state House, was mad that Gilbert and other Republican lawmakers were paying tribute to former state legislator Joe Johnson Jr. Who had just passed away. Jones apparently irritated that Johnson was too much of a Democratic centrist. He didn't like the bipartisan mourning. The texts not even meant for Coiner. Jones writing at one point, damn, that was for Mark. Jones nonetheless kept texting and what he sent got even more disturbing. Jones writing, quote, if those guys die before me, I will go to their funerals to piss on their graves. As if that weren't enough, Jones then writing of Speaker Gilbert, quote, three people, two bullets. Gilbert, Hitler and Pol Pot. Gilbert gets two bullets to the head. Spoiler put Gilbert in the crew with the two worst people, you know, and he receives both bullets every time. According to National Review, Jones then telephones Coiner and doubles down on his disturbing views from NR's report, quote. Then at one point he suggested he wished Gilbert's wife could watch her own child die in her arms so that Gilbert might reconsider his political views, prompting Coiner to hang up the phone in disgust. Jones then resuming the texting, writing, quote, I mean, do I think Todd and his wife Jennifer are evil and that they're breeding little fascists? Yes. Jones's initial approach to dealing with this scandal? To attack Donald Trump, putting out a statement accusing President Trump and Jones's Republican opponent, current Virginia Attorney General Jason Mieres, of dropping smears through Trump controlled media to assault my character. National Review is Trump controlled media. That'll be news to Trump later. Jones putting out a second statement saying, I take full responsibility for my actions and I want to issue my deepest apology to Speaker Gilbert and his family. Reading back those words made me sick to my stomach. I'm embarrassed, ashamed and sorry. I've reached out to Speaker Gilbert to apologize directly to him, his wife Jennifer and their children. I cannot take back what I said. I can only take full accountability and offer my sincere apology. Miharas responding on X writing in part, quote, my job is to stop violence, to protect innocent lives and keep people safe. I cannot imagine someone running for this job who advocates for violence. So far, Democrats sticking by Jones with Democrat gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger condemning the texts but stopping short of calling for Jones to exit the race. Virginia Lieutenant governor and Republican gubernatorial nominee Winsome Earl Sears reacting Saturday night.
