| 0:00.0 | All righty, folks. So I want to review with you today. What's going on in the Virginia |
| 0:04.3 | gubernatorial race and how we got here? Because it is a demonstration that investigative |
| 0:08.1 | reporting really, really, really matters. I'm going to make an open appeal right at the top. |
| 0:12.8 | Our investigative reporter, Luke Roziak, has been one of the key factors in shifting this |
| 0:16.6 | Virginia gubernatorial race away from Terry McHawough, the former Virginia governor and former DNC head, |
| 0:22.0 | and toward Glenn Yonkin. Luke has done unbelievable work on the ground in Loudoun County, |
| 0:27.2 | and you can see it in the polls. So let me just go through the timeline of what has happened |
| 0:31.5 | in Loudoun County with you, so you actually know what is happening leading up to the election |
| 0:36.4 | that is supposed to happen on Tuesday. So if you go all the back to the beginning of this race, McCullough was leading by double digits. And he was up really, really big. And then in March 2021, Luke Roziak, our investigative reporter over at Daily Wire, we vowed to you that we were going to bring you investigative reporting. That stuff is super expensive.

| 1:18.1 | Well, the Loudoun County teachers have been getting blowback from parents who are saying, why are you teaching the stuff in the schools? |
| 1:23.2 | So a group of parents and teachers started compiling a secret list of parents who disagreed with |
| 1:27.9 | the school system's actions on critical race theory. It is a report from Luke back in March of |
| 1:33.8 | 2021, in which she reported, a group of current and former teachers and others in Loudoun County |
| 1:38.3 | compiled a lengthy list of parents suspected of disagreeing with school system actions, including |
| 1:43.0 | its teaching of controversial racial |
| 1:44.4 | concepts, with a stated purpose in part to infiltrate, use hackers to silence parents' communications, |
| 1:49.4 | and expose these people publicly. Members of a 624-member private Facebook group called |
| 1:53.9 | anti-racist parents of Loudoun County named parents and plotted fundraising and other offline work. |
