FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va.—At the annual Independence Day parade in Fairfax, Virginia, thousands of participants and spectators enjoyed the event though the weight of inflation was in the air, something different than in 2021. Many politicians, including Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, also joined the parade.
When asked about speculation regarding his potential White House bid in 2024, Youngkin said that he was focusing on Virginia for now. “I’m always honored when people are suggesting that. I’ve got my eyes on Virginia right now,” he told The Epoch Times. “We’ve got a lot to do. Inflation is running away from us.”
