The Republican Party is in the full time business of endorsing and incentivizing political violence. So scary.

I'm Jason Reynolds and I plan to run in the Virginia primary for the US Senate seat held by @markwarner.bsky.social next year. I don't really have anything against Senator Warner, I've even voted for him (and will again if he beats me next year). I just like the idea of giving people a choice.
