In a "Breaking News" opening for hour four on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, Charlie James reports that a Virginia Circuit Court has ruled the state's controversial new redistricting law unconstitutional. The court issued an immediate injunction, halting the General Assembly's attempt to redraw congressional maps that critics argued would have created a partisan 10-1 advantage for Democrats. James celebrates the ruling as a victory for the rule of law, noting that the judge found the move violated the state's constitutional guardrails against mid-decade gerrymandering, effectively throwing the state's 2026 election cycle into further chaos.
