As Twitchy readers know, State Senator Louise Lucas (incidentally, the highest ranking state senator and President of the Senate) was arrested on Thursday facing charges of drug trafficking, money laundering, and a laundry list of other really bad stuff.

Welp, if you have been asking yourselves how this could be, and how others couldn't have known ... you'd be onto something. Sounds like plenty of people knew and some legislators in Virginia (likely all Democrats) were happy to help her hide her illegal activities.

No wonder Spanberger and Warner are both whining about the timing. This is big.

They are CURRENTLY serving, you guys.

Oh yeah, did we mention that Don Scott is himself a former criminal who was pardoned by Joe Biden? Yeah, really upstanding and good people in office here in Virginia.

Wow.

But wait, there's more!

She wrote a freaking check. She thought she was above the law. Clearly.

Oh FFS.

And they're all DEMOCRATS.

We told you, Virginia Democrats are the worst.

Wonder how long it will take for Lucas to give others up to save her own hide.

How deep does this corruption and rot really go?

Stay tuned.
