Powerful Dem’s jabs at Trump come back to haunt her after office raided by FBI: ‘Aged well’
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A powerful Virginia Democratic lawmaker’s online jab at President Donald Trump that «no one is above the law» is coming back to haunt her after her office and a business she co-owns were raided by the FBI Wednesday.
State Sen. L. Louise Lucas, a major power broker in Virginia politics and ally of Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger, is known for hot takes, often laced with vulgar language, that she frequently posts on social media. In 2023, she posted that then-former President «Donald Trump just learned no is above the law!»
Now, her post is garnering new attention following the news of the FBI raids, with X users pointing the finger back at her.
Popular conservative account Libs of TikTok posted, «Louise Lucas just learned no one is above the law!»

Caroline Wren, a political operative and former Trump fundraiser, referenced another post of Lucas’ from 2022, in which the Democrat wrote, «I want to see voters showing the kind of overwhelming numbers at the polls that the FBI showed today at Mar a Lago!» Wren wrote, «This aged well.»
Lucas’ office and weed dispensary business were raided Wednesday as part of a court-authorized federal corruption and illegal marijuana sale probe, federal law enforcement sources told Fox News. In total, 10 locations associated with Lucas were raided by the FBI.
This, too, drew mockery from Lucas’ critics, who pointed to her «Ten f—– one» slogan, referring to Virginia’s recently passed redistricting map that favors Democrats in 10 of the state’s congressional districts, likely leaving only one Republican district.
Former Virginia legislator Nick Freitas posted, «@SenLouiseLucas: ‘10 to f-ing 1’ FBI: ‘How about 10 to f-ing life.’»
Arlington County GOP Chair Matthew Hurtt posted on X, «Louise Lucas asked [a] Fox News reporter where else the FBI was raiding. Apparently, 10 locations. There’s a TEN F*CKIN’ ONE joke in there somewhere.»
Talk radio host Erick Erickson, meanwhile, predicted that «no wagons will be circled for Louise Lucas because the VA Dems have known for a while.»

Lucas was not universally reviled in response to the raids. Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas, who bears no relation to the Virginia Democrat, posted on his personal X account, «They need to leave Louise Lucas alone.»
Virginia House Speaker Don Scott, a Democrat, also released a statement on Wednesday in which he said he is «deeply concerned by today’s FBI raid.»
«Given the politicization of this administration — an FBI led by Kash Patel and a Justice Department run by President Donald Trump’s former personal attorney — I think people should take this with a grain of salt and allow the facts to come out before jumping to a conclusion,» he wrote.
Notably, a federal law enforcement source familiar with the case clarified that the corruption probe was opened by the FBI during the Biden administration.
Virginia Republican Delegate Tim Anderson, who was previously sued by Lucas for defamation in a case that was ultimately thrown out, also responded. Anderson wrote, «What they have or don’t have on Senator Lucas will be something for the courts to work through if the DOJ initiates criminal charges.»

Virginia Democratic Attorney General Jay Jones, who has faced his own share of controversy over violent text messages he previously sent, also weighed in. Jones said in a statement that «we simply do not have sufficient information about the reported FBI activity in Portsmouth. However, several previous actions of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia have undermined public confidence in that office.»

La Premier League vive una revolución en los bancos: quiénes resisten en medio del recambio
La Premier League cierra el mercado de técnicos con una plantilla de banquillos completamente renovada. Mikel Arteta es el único superviviente de una era que ya parece lejana: el entrenador del Arsenal acumula más de seis años al frente de su club, una cifra que en el contexto actual resulta casi inverosímil.
Según informó Sports Illustrated, durante la temporada 2025-26 se registraron 11 cambios de técnico en la máxima categoría inglesa, con Nottingham Forest, Chelsea y Tottenham Hotspur entre los clubes que recurrieron a más de un reemplazante a lo largo del mismo curso.
La agitación no se detuvo con el pitido final. El verano de 2026 trajo consigo una nueva oleada de movimientos que transformó por completo el paisaje de los banquillos. Más de la mitad de los 20 clubes de la Premier League afrontarán la temporada 2026-27 con un técnico que lleva menos de dos meses en el cargo.
De acuerdo con Sports Illustrated, nueve entrenadores debutarán oficialmente con sus respectivos clubes en la primera jornada del campeonato, un récord absoluto en la historia de la competición.
El caso más llamativo entre los recién llegados es el de Xabi Alonso, quien asumió la dirección técnica de Chelsea el 1 de julio de 2026 tras su exitoso paso por el Bayer Leverkusen. En esa misma semana, Andoni Iraola —hasta entonces técnico del Bournemouth— firmó con Liverpool, mientras que Enzo Maresca dejó Chelsea para ocupar el banco del Manchester City, vacante tras la salida de Pep Guardiola después de una década en el club. Oliver Glasner tomó el mando en Nottingham Forest y Álvaro Arbeloa, exdefensa del Real Madrid y técnico sin fortuna en la misma institución madrileña, aterrizó en el Fulham el 7 de julio, la incorporación más reciente del mercado.
Otros nombramientos relevantes incluyen a Marco Rose en el Bournemouth (1 de junio), a Pierre Sage en el Crystal Palace (15 de junio) y a Gary O’Neil en el Ipswich Town (23 de junio). La única plaza vacante al cierre de este listado es la del Newcastle United, que todavía no anunció al sucesor de Eddie Howe. El medio especializado apuntó que Matthias Jaissle aparece como el candidato favorito para ocupar ese puesto.
En el tramo opuesto de la tabla figuran técnicos con mayor recorrido, pero incluso ellos representan la excepción. Michael Carrick, designado interino en el Manchester United en enero de 2026 y ratificado de forma permanente en mayo, ya figura en el top 10 con apenas 198 días en el cargo. Roberto De Zerbi, contratado por el Tottenham Hotspur en marzo, acumula 121 días. Sports Illustrated describió el dato de Carrick como “sorprendente” dentro de un panorama técnico que cambia a un ritmo sin pausa.
A continuación, el listado completo de los técnicos en activo de la Premier League, ordenados según su antigüedad al frente de cada club:
Contratado el 22 de diciembre de 2019, el técnico español es el más longevo de la división. También el más veterano de las cuatro categorías del fútbol profesional inglés. Bajo su gestión, el Arsenal conquistó la Premier League 2025-26, el primer título liguero del club en 22 años.
El técnico vasco asumió el banquillo del Aston Villa el 1 de noviembre de 2022. Con él, el club de Birmingham consolidó su regreso a la élite europea. Curiosamente, Emery ya había dirigido al Arsenal antes de que Arteta lo relevara en el cargo.
El técnico alemán llegó a Leeds United el 4 de julio de 2023. Su permanencia al frente del equipo incluyó el ascenso del club a la Premier League, donde ahora afronta una nueva temporada.
Régis Le Bris — Sunderland — 2 años y 1 mes
Incorporado el 1 de julio de 2024, el técnico francés condujo al Sunderland hasta la primera división inglesa y mantiene el cargo para la campaña 2026-27.
Fabian Hürzeler — Brighton & Hove Albion — 2 años y 1 mes
Nombrado el 2 de julio de 2024, el joven entrenador alemán continúa al frente del proyecto del Brighton, uno de los clubes más activos en el desarrollo de perfiles técnicos sin experiencia previa en la élite.

O’Neil llegó al Ipswich Town el 23 de junio de 2026 para dirigir al club en su segunda temporada consecutiva en la máxima categoría del fútbol inglés.
El italiano, extécnico del Chelsea, fue anunciado como nuevo entrenador del Manchester City el 29 de junio de 2026, con la misión de reconstruir al equipo tras la salida de Pep Guardiola.
El excentrocampista español asumió el banco del Chelsea el 1 de julio de 2026, su segundo cargo como entrenador tras su etapa en el Bayer Leverkusen.
El austríaco tomó las riendas del Nottingham Forest el 6 de julio de 2026, en la tercera contratación del club en lo que va de temporada.
El exdefensa del Real Madrid fue presentado como técnico del Fulham el 7 de julio de 2026, la última incorporación confirmada antes del inicio de la temporada.

Top Trump ally warns super PAC bankrolled by Dem billionaire is meddling in his GOP primary
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A clean energy super PAC bankrolled by a left-wing billionaire is pouring millions into an effort to unseat Rep. Andy Ogles, R-Tenn., as he wages a bid for re-election in Tennessee’s 5th Congressional District.
The Invest in Tomorrow Coalition super PAC had spent roughly $1.3 million on opposing Ogles and supporting his Republican challenger, Charlie Hatcher, Tennessee’s former commissioner of agriculture, and recently bought another $700,000 worth of ads.
The group has raised $6.7 million this year, making Ogles a sizable portion of their spending this cycle. A Fox News Digital review of FEC filings discovered that the super PAC is bankrolled by Chris Larsen, the California-based billionaire chairman of Ripple, which is described on its website as the «leading financial technology company that offers crypto solutions for businesses.»
Larsen has donated $6 million to the super PAC since Feb. 2026. His latest $5 million donation to Invest in Tomorrow Coalition PAC is his second-largest single donation after donating $5,444,975 to Future Forward PAC in 2024 to support Kamala Harris’s failed presidential campaign.

Larsen has also donated over $1 million to the Jane Fonda Climate PAC, over $1 million between the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) and Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) and over $300,000 supporting Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., among other six-figure donations to top Democratic campaigns and PACs.
The way that Ogles sees it, it’s an attempt to show Republicans what happens when lawmakers attempt to scale back government investments in renewable energy sources.
«When you have a group spending roughly $2 million in a Republican primary, that tells you how much money they’re making off of government subsidies, and they’re upset that the government welfare has been taken away from them,» Ogles told Fox News Digital in an interview.
Larsen, who is an angel investor and climate philanthropist, is making «climate change his top priority,» according to an online bio.
«He founded the Larsen Lam Climate Change Foundation (since renamed as the Clean Break Fund) in 2021 to guide his climate philanthropy, and is an active early investor in numerous climate tech companies, as well as several prominent climate funds,» the bio continues. «His philanthropic priorities include the climate-driven home insurance crisis, making climate change a bipartisan issue once again, and carbon dioxide removal, among many other projects.»
Ogles, a member of the fiscally minded House Freedom Caucus, has been one of the most outspoken Republicans calling for a reversal of energy initiatives passed under President Joe Biden. Among them, Ogles has argued against clean energy subsidies in Biden’s Infrastructure and Jobs Act and the Inflation Reduction Act.
But more than that, Ogles thinks it’s his proximity to Trump that has made him a target.
«It’s because I’m close to the president. It is because I am outspoken. And quite frankly, it is because I speak plainly on these issues,» Ogles said.
Trump, who has endorsed Ogles, reaffirmed his support for the conservative firebrand ahead of the primary.
«Andy will be really enshrined as one of the best congressmen that you’ll ever see. He’s just fantastic,» Trump said. «Andy has always been there when we needed him and when I needed him. He’s been a great help. He’s been a source of inspiration to a lot of people in Congress.»
Figures who have donated to Invest in Tomorrow framed energy policy as an issue with electoral consequences, hinting that Ogles is on the wrong side of the issue.

«Our campaign is here to show that politicians who oppose clean energy do so at their own political peril. Andy Ogles is next,» Tom Matzzie, the PAC’s executive chairman, said in a statement to Axios.
Matzzie is also CEO of a solar energy company, CleanChoice Energy.
When asked about the comment, Ogles said he doesn’t think his views are at odds with the way voters see energy and has characterized the opposition spending as an attempt to buy a seat energy groups can control.
«If trying to build an energy sector that is self-reliant, because it’s a national security issue, makes me an extremist, then so be it.»
Ogles said he stands by his all-of-the-above energy stance. In his view, it’s not the government’s job to pick winners and losers in the energy market — especially in light of the country’s overspending challenges.
«I’m not against solar. We have a farm. I’ve got a big shop. You know, I’ve contemplated putting solar on my shop to help to run my farm. But I don’t want a government subsidy to make it work. I don’t need a government subsidy to pay for it,» Ogles said.

«Look, at the end of the day, you know, I voted for conservative policies and that’s what America wants right now. We’re barreling towards $40 trillion in debt,» he added.
The Tennessee primary will take place on Thursday, Aug. 6.
