The Wheeling Alternative
Let the pandering begin: the leaders of the WV Trump Party get out their dog whistles to defend their party’s namesake
It’s all there: Soros-backed prosecutors, Stalin’s secret police, third world banana republic stuff, violent thugs roaming the streets, weaponizing the criminal code for political purposes, anarchy and corruption, political prosecution, a leftist Manhattan DA, and obviously, a gross miscarriage of justice

Forget taxes, critical race theory, and destroying public education, what West Virginia’s Republican Party most cares about are guns
You probably saw this article in today’s Wheeling Intelligencer:
An unsuccessful bill that caused infighting among Republican lawmakers four years ago to allow college students to carry concealed weapons on campus is back, this time being considered by the West Virginia Senate. https://t.co/94OG76g5me pic.twitter.com/4ON6sjisJz
