US Senate candidate Mark Moran bragged last night on Twitter about being banned from r/Virginia. He cropped out of his ban message the reason that he was banned (the antisemitic tweet he posted yesterday, shown in the second screenshot of this post)

Journalist seeking sources on data centers and water
Hi r/Virgina! I'm a student journalist writing a story about the conflict between data centers and neighboring communities they're moving into, specifically around water consumption.
I'm looking to speak with anyone who has:
- Been approached by a developer to buy or lease land for a data center
- Experienced water supply problems near an existing data center
- Worked inside a data center and can speak to how cooling/water systems actually operate
- Organized against (or in favor of) a data center proposal in their community
You can comment here, DM me, or reach me at david.pinto@columbia.edu
Thanks in advance!

Urge Governor Spanberger to Sign Five Pro-Housing Bills
The Commonwealth Housing Coalition— a coalition of pro-housing organizations led by YIMBY Action—successfully passed five housing supply bills through the General Assembly this session. All are awaiting the Governor’s signature with a deadline of April 13.
Local governments and Civic associations fought all of these bills throughout the General Assembly session on the grounds of “preserving local control” (to block affordable housing) and are now lobbying the Governor to veto them. Spanberger has been mum on housing supply bills that pre-empt local land use authority, so her support is not assured.
Tell the Governor you support legislation to improve housing affordability by removing barriers to creating more affordable homes!
