That same man used a chain in a bike lock to attach himself to the unscalable fence outside the high court earlier this month. It's ten O four.

The 7 members of MS 13 were convicted in a federal court in Virginia Friday that 13 year old ran away from a youth home in fairfax in 2018. She then met these gang members who told her they would protect her and her family if she joined. For the next two months she was sold to numerous gang members and others for cash and drugs in both Maryland and Virginia. The 6 men and one woman also beat the young girl with a baseball bat over 50 times during that period. Those gang members will face a minimum of 15 years in prison after a sentencing hearing in November, they could also receive a life sentence. It appears the nationwide trend of stripping the names of confederate generals from buildings and roadways may be happening in our area. Acacia James has more on what fairfax county drivers are feeling about possibly changing names to numbers. The survey which had a small sample size found that the public prefers to just go with the road's numbers, so the new name for Lee highway named after Robert E. Lee would be route 29 and for Lee Jackson memorial highway named after Thomas Stonewall Jackson, the name would be route 50. I mean, I know this is a small sample set, but frankly people already refer to these by their route numbers today. So it would be a less dramatic change in terms of lifestyle marketing, the daily lives of people who live and work in these two corridors.

"News. Meanwhile, the federal government warning the threats of political violence will likely intensify against state leaders and judges following the Supreme Court decision. This is something they were prepared for. There was a meeting. And all of the stakeholders had something to say about it, but I'm pretty sure that they were all talking about the same thing. And that was whether or not there would be significant violence. We saw the president call for people to stay calm and for there not to be violence, but we are reminded that DHS sort of suggested that they knew something was coming. They said, on June 7th, in a national terrorism advisory bulletin quote in the coming months, we expect the threat environment to become more dynamic as several high profile events could be exploited to justify acts of violence against a range of possible targets and this decision being announced was one of those events.
