Before she took office on January 17, Democrats controlled the state legislature, but there was a Republican governor to temper their ambitions. But now, with Spanberger in office, Democrats are unleashed to impose their will on Virginians, no matter how extreme, and they're wasting no time doing so.

On his "Special Report" Fox News Channel program, Host Bret Baier rifled through a list of the controversial bills that Virginia state Democrats have put forward in the past week, ranging from creating/raising a host of taxes and changing election rules to punishing Second Amendment supporters while going easier on criminals (except drivers).

"What a spectacular reminder that we no longer live in an era where there's an existence of a moderate Democrat," "Ruthless" podcast host Josh Holmes told Baier in the segment, noting that people who believed that Spanberger would govern as a moderate were duped by her party's lies:

"I think, for the last six months, to those of us who pointed out that the Mamdanis of the world have taken over the Democratic Party, were assured that 'No, no, no,' that's not the face of the new Democratic Party—it's people like moderate Abigail Spanberger.

"I mean, she's there for a cup of coffee—and all of a sudden we have a Communist Manifesto up in front of us. This is going fast and furious."

"But, it is how Democrats govern—regardless of what they say," Holmes warned.

Baier provided a graphic listing some of the objectives of the Democrats bills:

• New 4.3% sales tax on Uber Eats, Amazon, etc deliveries.
• New sales tax on admissions to a wide variety of businesses.
• Create two new higher tax brackets of 8% and 10% on people making over $600K.
