The “Prior Authorization Accountability Act” Wittman is touting requires… insurers to post denial rates on a website. No caps, no penalties, no faster care. It’s a transparency bill with zero teeth, and he’s acting like he cured healthcare. Maybe start with the healthcare promises YOU broke, Rob.

Yes please. Anything to stop you sucking down more of our money while you kneecap the republic.

Tuberville: "If we don't straighten out this country's voting and immigration system, we're not gonna make it. It's gonna be over. I'm gonna go back to Alabama and hey, we might build a 30-foot wall around our state."

Regardless of anything else about AIPAC, the fact that they support anti-democracy/pro-fascism MAGA Republicans -- including John McGuire, Ben Cline, Morgan Griffith, Jen Kiggans and Rob Wittman here in Virginia -- should be completely unacceptable. bluevirginia.us/2026/08/wedn...

Great comment that reflects how a LOT of former Wittman voters feel about this election. Rob Wittman has failed them and failed #VA01. And they’re not gonna let him continue failing. @shannontaylorva.com for Congress!

Taking a moment in appreciation of ALL the candidates who stepped up to take on Worthless Rob Wittman! 👏👏👏👏 Same team & goal--> Flip VA-01!

This is getting silly. Wittman says he's been a strong advocate for the Chesapeake Bay, "an environmental treasure and an economic engine for VA." 💩 It's less healthy than when he started. 🥸 He has obtained $0 in Bay health funding. 😡 He voted against the bills that DID help. 1/2

Excellent advice for voters, reposted by a friend:

Congratulations to our Democratic nominee in CD-01, Shannon Taylor! As a Commonwealth’s Attorney, Shannon has been a strong fighter for our communities, making them safer and stronger. In Congress, she’ll do the same.

"And this November, we will make history. By voting YES on Questions 1, 2, & 3, Virginians will protect reproductive freedom, repeal our outdated ban on same-sex marriage & restore voting rights to those who have completed their sentences." - @donscott757.bsky.social bluevirginia.us/2026/08/live...

Congratulations to @shannontaylorva.com! Let's GO! Flip the 1st!

OK! Now let's get this thing DONE in November!

Michael Popok on Todd Blanche's tax relief scheme for the Trump family: "How can you settle a case and have a super pardon for Donald Trump when the underlying case was illegitimate?"

Wittman is vice chair of House Armed Services while CENTCOM emails staff begging for "creative ideas" because the Iran bombing campaign isn't working (CIA, DIA, Chair of the Joint Chiefs). Sounds less like a strategy and more like a group project nobody wants to own. Where's the oversight, Rob?

GTFO with this. You're a US Senator, not a passenger in someone else's plane.

Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"

Trump says oil companies making excess profits from his war in Iran should hand money to the public. A question for our more committed MAGA commenters: is Donald Trump a socialist, Marxist, or Communist? Your definitions of these words confuse us. Help! www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Our average of polls at FiftyPlusOne gives Trump a roughly 36% approval rating and 61% disapproval rating — a net -25 — among all adults, and he’s rapidly losing ground. The president set a new record low six days in a row just in the last week: www.gelliottmorris.com/p/2026-08-04...

What does Rob Wittman (#VA01), Vice Chair of the House Armed Services Committee, think about his votes alienating America’s allies and making us geopolitically and economically weaker? We’ll never know because he’ll never say, like every Trump patsy in Congress. What do YOU think about it?

Rob Wittman in #VA01 voted for this. He also knows that it’s only going to get worse, and he’s doing nothing to protect our most vulnerable friends and neighbors. We HAVE to replace him in November! #NoWittman

SNAP, also known as food stamps, has seen a rapid and consistent participation decline since last July. The drop comes as the program faces historic cuts and changes.

For the first time in 19 years, #VA01 is a real toss-up race. Today's primary decides who carries that opportunity forward, and the work we start tomorrow will enhance their chances to send Wittman packing. Vote today, and unite to beat Rob Wittman! #NoWittman

Today we vote; tomorrow we unite to beat Wittman

You can unwrap your gift tonight: it’s a Democratic nominee for VA-01!

How tacos became Norway's national comfort food

An oil boom, a supermarket opportunity and decades of adaptation transformed the taco from a Tex-Mex import into one of Norway's most beloved traditions.

WTF? We can blow up schools in Iran but we can't fund students whose work will help our communities thrive? You know who wins in business? CEOs who invest in the foundations of their businesses. You know who goes bankrupt? Businesses whose CEOs are dumbasses. Guess which one America is now.

President Trump is banning students majoring in degrees that don’t make enough money from taking out college loans. Degrees for social work, art, religious studies, teaching aides, and music will be hit the hardest. trib.al/aaAEu6v

Oh fuck this ALL the way to hell! Every incumbent and House/Senate candidate Dem MUST commit to rescinding this “agreement” once in power. If this “agreement” holds, why should I or anyone else continue to faithfully pay their taxes? It’s another Trump-based existential threat to the republic.

The New York Times@nytimes.com · 3d ago

Breaking News: Senators John Cornyn of Texas and Thom Tillis of North Carolina, the two Republican senators who threatened to block Todd Blanche’s confirmation as attorney general, now say they support it.

FYI: Blanche rescinded the ORDER establishing the slush fund, not the underlying “settlement.” The settlement says any changes must be agreed to by ALL parties, not just Todd. This “rescission” isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on.

#VA01 needs more clean, affordable energy. Rob Wittman supports Trump 100%. Trump *illegally* increased the cost of our new energy project, and we regular Virginians will probably pay for it. We can’t afford Rob Wittman. He increases costs, fails to produce new jobs, and defends Trump. #NoWittman

Amen. Never, EVER, forget the enablers. Looking directly at my congressman, Rob Wittman, in Virginia's 1st Congressional District. His fundamental failure to defend The Constitution during this moment will cement his legacy.

Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · 3d ago

Most of the corruption perpetrated by the Trump admin would not be possible without the complicit enabling of the Republican majorities in the House and Senate. The only way to put any check and balance on this out of control regime is to vote them out in November.

Low-information Republican voters need to be asked this question a lot.

Jacquelyn Gill@jacquelyngill.bsky.social · 3d ago

The whole "let's treat government like a business" is such a con. You mean, the businesses that pay CEOs record bonuses for going under? That have extravagant spending with no oversight for the c-suite? That rigorously enshittify and hike prices while posting record profits? Those businesses?

YUMMY! Let’s f’ing do this, #VA01. Share www.robsrecord.com with everyone - they need to know how Rob Wittman has really served this district.
