Heard on Morning JoeScum this AM

That during the attempted Coup, Congresswoman Abigail Spanberger went around to members and instructed them to take off their Congressional pins so they would be more difficult to identify should they run into the terrorists storming the Capitol. Person who relayed the story was a former CIA agent.

When Virginia redistricted, we were moved into VA-7, which is Abigail's district. I'm happy to say that both Mrs Best and I will be voting for Abigail Spanberger this fall.

Several former service members, intel included, relied on their learned skills that day and were very helpful to their colleagues in that moment.
