To understand Virginia politically, you have to go back to the system that shaped it long before modern party labels took hold.

WARNING: A Mini Playbook for Strategic Activism, by Jill S. McDaniel, aka Mom-At-Arms... who knows how to read and research, has a background in marketing and business psychology, and has been in activism longer than most of these influencers you see on IG and TikyTok. Not to mention, if many of you in the 2A World recall, I also helped YOU become "noticed." Please refer back to your DMs before you read further. Cause this one might have ya tucking your tail. Here's a hard tr

Clout chasing dressed up as advocacy does not strengthen a cause. It dilutes it. It confuses people and redirects energy away from where it actually needs to go and gives folks a false sense that they have done something when all they have done is engage with content.

When Pro Second Amendment commentary begins portraying women as constant victims within their own community, it risks reinforcing that same narrative as Gun Control proponents.

...Laura was always more than the hardest chapter of her life.

I hope Virginians are paying attention, because this pattern isn’t new. Lawmakers like Dan Helmer and Abigail Spanberger fully expect to be sued; that’s part of the political machinery that keeps money and momentum flowing on their side.

Spoiler alert: thanks to the Supreme Court’s Bruen decision, these bills are walking into a legal buzzsaw.

HB21 threatens jobs, small businesses, and constitutional rights—all under the guise of “responsible conduct.”

HB 24 is a misguided attempt to restrict reciprocity and complicate lawful concealed carry. Virginians should contact their legislators, voice opposition, and stand for policies that respect constitutional rights, promote clarity, and prioritize real safety measures over political theater.

(I've tried to steer away from posting "All things Mom" articles on this site, but after something I witnessed yesterday while out grabbing some goods, I can't help but take the opportunity to share the lesson. And honestly, since the Mom-At-Arms brand has successfully expanded into instruction over the last few years, I may start posting more articles of the like in the near future so that I can better help my students. Don't fret, though! The snarky exposes and legislative

Virginia Senator Jennifer Carroll Foy (D) has prefiled a bill for the 2026 Legislative Session that claims to establish “standards of responsible conduct” for firearm industry members. On the surface, it sounds like common‑sense regulation. In reality, it’s a sweeping attempt to impose vague, unworkable mandates on manufacturers, dealers, and distributors - opening the door to endless lawsuits, selective enforcement, and back‑door gun control. Let's take this mess she's propo

Values can be manipulated. Morals must be defended.

“We recognize today’s historic selection of Winsome Sears. The Virginia NAACP does not support a political party. However, we recognize the overwhelming significance of this moment.”

And he sure as hell wouldn’t have voted for a CIA operative!

Hi-Point would’ve never done this to us!

What are Universal Background Checks (UBCs)? UBCs are laws that require a criminal background check for every firearm transfer—whether it’s a sale, gift, or loan—between any individuals, not just through licensed dealers. That means even handing a rifle to your cousin for hunting or gifting a handgun to your adult child would require government approval. Sounds harmless? It’s not. UBCs are the gateway to surveillance, criminalization, and unconstitutional overreach. The E

While Abigail Spanberger has positioned herself as a moderate Democrat, her campaign has benefited from Bloomberg-aligned groups like Everytown for Gun Safety, which advocate for expanded surveillance, red flag laws, and predictive policing, all under the banner of gun control. These policies, critics argue, mirror the logic of Jim Crow-era laws: using public safety as a pretext to monitor, disarm, and disenfranchise.

Cordoza didn’t just deny the claims, he brought receipts.

As Earle-Sears put it: “Jay Jones fantasizes about murdered little children… and my opponent Abigail Spanberger urges her supporters to fill their hearts with violent hate. ‘Let your rage fuel you,’ she says. Words have meaning.”
