You know what, if you give me a traffic ticket, that’s fine. I’m the one that prosecutes it, OK? Just go ahead and do it. Go ahead. Go...

Since 2022, at least 15 far-left district attorneys backed by liberal megadonor George Soros have resigned, retired, been recalled, or lost re-election, according to a recent report from the watchdog group “Virginians for Safe Communities.” With fewer Soros prosecutors taking office in that time, it seems conservatives may be turning the tide against the radical criminal justice “reform” movement.

Like other Marxist prosecutors, Chisholm pursued an agenda of ending cash bail, releasing as many prisoners as...
