I wish this VA race would lead to serious soul searching and self-reflection by mainstream media who referred to Youngkin’s race-baiting lies on CRT as clever strategy. But it won’t.

If you don't think the astroturf-funded "CRT Panic" was about scaring suburban white voters who had defected during the Trump years back into the fold, you haven't been paying attention.
It's classic southern strategy that focuses on drawing out white people's worst instincts.
