After the state Supreme Court's order today, Virginia Democrats are now one referendum vote away from a 10-1 congressional map. I suspect the GOP is trying to figure out how to file a new lawsuit or concoct a theory for SCOTUS. Both will fail.

Rearmament would be a lot cheaper with such a union and would actually give Europe the capacity for autonomous defence, which the current NATO spending plans do not.
