Soooo, in case you haven't heard Virginia has a new governor. Only 11 days in and he's been horrific and awful and trying to "rule" by EO's. The new Lt Gov and AG are both awful too btw.

But trying to stop them and holding the Blue Wall in Virginia is Madame President Pro Tempore Senator Louise Lucas. She is a bad ass rockstar who, as she puts it, "is a 78 yo grandma who helped legalize pot and now has her own cannibis store". She will also proudly tell everyone (with a chuckle) that its on High Street in Portsmouth. She also channels ninja style legislative skills, Gen Z, and humor to get the job done.

How did I not know of this woman before now?!!! If you don't follow her on twitter - think about it, you won't be sorry - Madame President (Louise Lucas).

My name is Lillie Louise Lucas and I own the Cannabis Outlet in Portsmouth, run the Lucas Lodge that provides services to the disabled and work with charities that have named me one of the leading black philanthropists in the Hampton Roads region! (1/3)
