As bad as most of us thought Jason Miyares would be as Attorney General – both in absolute terms and, even more so, relative to the superb Mark Herring – did anyone think he’s be THIS atrociously awful? Here’s the latest:
- Deputy Virginia Attorney General Resigns Over Posts Praising Capitol Rioters (“‘The deep state has awoken the sleeping giant,’ Miles reportedly wrote on Facebook. ‘We are awake, ready and will fight for our rights by any means necessary.’”)
- Deputy Va. attorney general resigns after revelation of Facebook posts praising Jan. 6 rioters, claiming Trump won election
And before this…how about these stories?
- VA Senate Majority Leader Says “one must question Miyares’s motives” in Heaphy Firing, Appointment of “Koch brothers’ major fundraiser”; Rips “Dynamic Duo” of Glenn Youngkin and Jim Justice
- EDITORIAL: Back down, Mr. Miyares
- Miyares drops wrongful conviction case that Herring was championing
- Va. attorney general files motion to dismiss lawsuit against order ending mask mandate
Was the election of Miyares as Attorney General of Virginia the worst mistake Virginia voters have ever made in the history of the Commonwealth? If anyone can think of a worse mistake, please let us all know…
