There are bills pending to dissolve the governing Board of Visitors, move the school under the control of some HBCU, and launch a witch hunt to determine if enough has been done to eradicate "lost cause" ideology.  If these are passed it will destroy VMI.  The Dept. of War is looking into this as VMI is a senior military college.

So they want to destroy the school that produced the only professional soldier to win the Nobel Peace Prize!

What they don't understand is what happens if VMI loses the designation as a Senior Military College.

Northern Virginia should just merge with MD as a state. Outside of NOVA and Charlottesville, Virginia is just as red as KY and TN.

Here in Louisiana, we just want to get rid of some actually failing institutions, and in Virginia they are try to kill off a successful one.

Graduation rates:

VMI 76 percent
Grambling: 32 percent
Southern - New Orleans 19 percent
Virginia State (an HBCU who they want to put in charge of VMI): 41 percent

look how much and how quickly Democrats get shite done when they have power

Republicans are worthless, have a mandate and have legislation that will benefit everyone in this country

This is a great case study on what the Future Left will do if they get the presidency again.

It will make the Biden Presidency look like the Reagan one in comparison. They will go full communist.

I don’t see how rural Virginia will stay aligned with Nova or Richmond. I really think we could eventually see a push towards secession then merging to other states. I live about an hour from Lee County, VA. Southwest VA is deep red as it gets. There is zero commonality between that area of the state and somewhere like Fairfax County.

The War Department will Federalise VMI as essential to National Security before that ever happens.

there should, be a law that all Virginians have to stay in their state. They cannot move away.

They already destroyed Washington and Lee University. No one stopped them. No one will stop them now, unfortunately.

Actual Virginians are not the problem



Yankee interlopers.

The current gov is a NJ born c word.

Tim Kaine? Minnesota. And on and on and on.

No quite. Richmond and Hampton Roads areas are plenty blue as well.
