Wexton will defend our democracy

Dear Editor:

The voters of the 10th Congressional District, which encompasses all of Loudoun County, have a clear choice this year between our incumbent Congresswoman Jennifer Wexton and her Republican opponent, Hung Cao.

Wexton will continue to defend a women’s right to make decisions over her own medical care.  Cao supports a total abortion ban, with no exceptions for rape or incest.

Wexton will continue to defend our democracy and has supported efforts to bring the January 6 insurrectionists to justice. Cao welcomes support from those that continue to deny the legitimacy of the 2020 Presidential election along with those that fomented and participated in the assault on our Capitol.

Wexton will continue to fight for commonsense gun safety legislation to keep weapons of war out of the hands of those who present a danger to themselves and others. Cao opposes simple background checks for assault weapons purchases.

Jennifer Wexton’s positions on the issues are consistent with the mainstream values that have made Loudoun County the prosperous, diverse, and beautiful place that we love. Cao’s Republican outlook has no place representing the voters of the 10th Congressional District.

    Mr Fechter,

    You’re right that we have a very clear choice this election. Actually, the differences are stark.

    Let’s take the points that you brought up and talk about them in a little more detail.

    Democrats like Wexton are way outside the mainstream on the abortion issue. They’re uber far-left radicals who align themselves with North Korea and China who permit abortion for any reason, at any time during pregnancy, up to the moment of birth and even after. If the baby survives a botched abortion, Wexton supports allowing the baby to die on a cold metal tray.

    Did you know that 7 in 10 Americans, including Gen Z and Millennials support restrictions on abortion? Like restricting abortion once the baby can feel pain or has a heartbeat. Only 2 in 10 Americans support unrestricted abortion, but interestingly enough, 100% of elected democrats do.

    Cao supports life at every stage. More than that he wants to make sure that every woman walking into an abortion clinic knows that there are options out there. That they don’t have to choose that. There are families that would love to adopt a baby. Right now, when they go in there is only one option. They don’t know that there are other options out there. He wants to help our women. He wants to give them health care.

    Did you watch the debate between Wexton and Cao? Captain Cao was specifically asked if Joe Biden was the duly elected president. Did you hear his answer? “Yes, he is. Just go to the gas station and the grocery store and look at the prices!”

    Democrats might have a little more credibility about January 6th if they actually cared about what happened in 2016. You remember, right? How right after the election Hillary Clinton went on national TV time and time again and said that the election was stolen from her? That Russia hacked our elections, that our election was not on the level. How democrat senators and members of congress and practically the whole legacy news media parroted the same message and said that Trump was an illegitimate president.

    Democrat operatives said it would not be a peaceful change of power and it wasn’t. For 3 days following the 2016 election, rioters threw burning trash cans, tossed flash bombs, smashed windows of streetside stores and cars, launched fireworks at police, and called on electors to ignore the votes of their states and make Hillary Clinton president.

    Funny, I never saw any stories of those violent 2016 rioters getting arrested, thrown in jail, or prosecuted.

    Did you see any burning trash cans being thrown at people, flash bombs, smashed windows, or destruction of the Capitol on January 6th? I haven’t. All I’ve seen is a bunch of people getting shoved and otherwise walking around the Capitol taking selfies. (To be honest, I do understand that a door window was broken.)

    Insurrection. What a joke. An insurrection without any destruction and the only person who died was an unarmed female veteran who was not a threat to anyone. Shot by an overly aggressive Capitol Hill police officer.

    Democrats in power aren’t anything if not hypocrites. Democrats love power and will do anything to keep it. Even running a sham January 6th political hearing that barely drew flies for viewership because the people knew the truth.

    Regarding gun legislation. The real issue is not about restricting gun ownership. The real issue is answering the question why is our society becoming more violent.

    Here are some reasons. Democrats have removed God from school. Democrats de-value life in the womb. Democrats proclaim fathers aren’t necessary and facilitate fatherless families. Democrats wanted police out of schools and called to defund the police and set criminals free. Democrats supported the destruction of communities, including $100Ms in damages to public and private property, the killing of civilians, and the many attacks on the police by BLM. Democrats want to legalize more harmful drugs and make them easily accessible. Democrats are unwilling to secure our borders to prevent all sorts of criminals and violent people from entering our country.

    Democrat policies have fostered a more violent society. Their policies and actions demonstrate that they don’t value a safe and secure community. Then on top of that, democrats want to restrict the ability of law-abiding citizens from protecting themselves.

    Democrats like Wexton are well outside the mainstream.

    But these issues are not even the most important issues in Loudoun County, Mr Fechter.

    The number one issue in Loudoun County is the economy. The number two issue is education.

    Under Biden-Wexton, our economy is in a shambles. Inflation is at a 40-year record high, businesses are closing, US manufacturing is down. Sitting on some of the world’s richest natural resources, we have to beg other countries to produce more oil.

    Under Biden-Wexton, our children are being taught to judge one another by the color of their skin, our children are being sexualized by exposure to inappropriate sexually explicit, even pornographic material, and those born male are allowed to use the same restrooms, locker rooms, and play on the same sports teams, as girls.

    And then to top it off, democrats like Wexton feel it’s okay to exclude parents from issues regarding their children.

    Far from being consistent with mainstream values, Jennifer Wexton, who loudly and proudly said, “I’m on Team Joe” is so far to the left that it’s hard to keep her in sight.

    Vote for someone who actually shares our values, someone who will actually represent us.

    Vote for Captain Hung Cao.

    Vote Republican.
