Family member sounds alarm over Trump's latest "chilling" move against Democrat - LGBTQ Nation
"Mary Trump, Donald Trump's lesbian niece and a clinical psychologist, is trying to get people to pay attention to federal agents raiding the office of Virginia state Sen. Louise Lucas (D), the person who led Virginia's effort to change its congressional district map."
"Last week, FBI agents raided her office in Portsmouth, even though there is no public record of criminal charges against her. Fox News aired live footage of the raid, while acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said it was part of "a criminal investigation" without specifying the allegations."
""Just two weeks ago, Virginians sent a powerful message when they voted to stop Trump's scheme to manipulate the 2026 midterm elections," Lucas said after the raid. "I was proud to help lead that effort and I have never been afraid to stand up to Donald Trump or anyone else that has tried to undermine our democracy.""
""We cannot let anybody tell us that these events are unrelated," Mary Trump wrote on her Substack, referring to the court decision to overturn the redistricting effort and to the raid on Lucas' office. "This is how democratic erosion works in real time.""
Mary Trump, a clinical psychologist and Donald Trump’s niece, is urging attention to federal agents raiding Virginia state Sen. Louise Lucas’s office in Portsmouth. Lucas led Virginia’s effort to change congressional district maps, which voters approved earlier this year to give Democrats more seats. The redistricting effort was later overturned by the state supreme court. Federal agents raided Lucas’s office last week, and no public record of criminal charges against her was reported. Fox News aired live footage of the raid, while acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said it was part of a criminal investigation without detailing allegations. Lucas said voters sent a message against Trump’s efforts to manipulate the 2026 midterm elections, and she vowed to keep fighting.
