Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears delivered sharp criticism Monday against her gubernatorial opponent, former Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA), accusing her of lacking leadership and refusing to directly denounce a campaign supporter who appeared to justify the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

During an appearance on Fox News Channel with host Martha MacCallum, Earle-Sears called out Spanberger for her prior endorsement of Dorothy Heffron, a Chesterfield County School Board member who posted on Instagram: “Call me old-fashioned, but I remember when we used to be okay with shooting Nazis.”
