IN THE NEWS:

Our first story: The VA House Democrats have a new leader: Del. Don Scott from Portsmouth was elected by his peers to get the party out of the wilderness and take back the majority for Democrats.

Our second story: After months of secret negotiations, the House and Senate cut a deal on the state budget. One of those items re-criminalizes marijuana possession. Now, Gov. Glenn Youngkin will consider signing a measure that creates a new felony for possessing more than 4oz of cannabis. The Family Foundation says that's a good thing, but advocates for legal weed call it a step backward.

Our third story: Republican candidate for the 8th District Karina Lipsman first said that Fauci should be jailed. However, she's shaking her etch-a-sketch and walking back that statement now that she's the nominee. However, when asked about it, she refused to answer reporter's questions. Why would a candidate do that?

GUEST: Brian Moran is the former Sec. of Public Safety & Homeland Security for Gov. Ralph Northam and also a former delegate who was part of a successful leadership coup to remove fmr. Del. Frank Hall in favor of Ward Armstrong in 2007. He explains the expectations and responsibilities of a caucus leader, what distinguishes a good leader from a bad leader, and takes you behind the scenes into his conspiracy to overthrow a former leader.
