Rob Wittman's next email: "Friend, If you give up your health care now, I'll stop starving people. Maybe I'll fix your health care later. If there's time. Rob" 💯 HIS fault @wittmanwatch.bsky.social @hanovervadems.bsky.social @wjccindivisible.bsky.social @newkentvadems.bsky.social

Wittman is Vice Chair of the House Armed Services Committee and has spent more time fishing than holding the Trump admin to account for murdering unknown people in Venezuela in the name of war. Why is he complicit in these extrajudicial murders? How do you feel about his silence?

This Republican shutdown isn’t about responsible governance. It’s about cruelty and control — and a president who treats hunger as a weapon against his own people.

🚨BREAKING: Democrat Marisa Sweeney has won her race for State Assembly in the 25th district in New Jersey, flipping the Morris County-based seat for the first time since 1977.

Important lesson Post 2024 polls show Harris campaigning with Cheney decreased enthusiasm by 7% Post 2025 polls show Mamdani running as unapologetic progressive earned him 9% of MAGA 2024 voters Corporate Dems: You dont flip votes by compromising your values—but by unapologetically embracing them

Listen up, Dems 👇

I hope it’s someone at the White House’s job to watch South Park. #Rectoplasm

BTW, Trump got 2,075,085 in Virginia in 2024; Spanberger got 1,921,044 in Virginia in 2025 (in a much-lower turnout year) bluevirginia.us/2025/11/poli...

Dems won 6 of the “Leans Republican” districts!!!! Stressing importance of RUNNING EVERYWHERE! Leave no seat uncontested! Blue Dots in Red Districts: organize & knock on doors! Dem leadership: don’t just support low hanging fruit, there’s seats to pick off everywhere—even in “leans red” places!

"Spanberger won the boundaries of Virginia’s 1st Congressional District. Outperforming Harris in 2024 and McAuliffe in 2021 is just the latest sign that the district continues to shift in Democrats’ direction." - @shannontaylorva.com bluevirginia.us/2025/11/thur...

"Jessica Anderson declared victory at approximately 10:00 pm on Election Night...Anderson, who was narrowly defeated in 2023 by just under 700 votes, won by more than 2,400 votes in a race considered one of the most competitive in [Virginia] this year." bluevirginia.us/2025/11/poli...

Federal judge to Trump admin: “This is on you. Stop putzing around playing political games and making stuff up. Get people money to feed themselves, as is required, and do it right now.” Wittman, probably: “Dems made me do it.”

Will Wittman pressure Johnson to open the House to get this compromise done? What do you all think?

Rep. @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social Grijalva: “What Speaker Johnson has done by not seating me is highlight how corrupt Trump is and allow me to connect with people across the country.” #TrumpEpsteinCoverUp

BREAKING: Federal Judge McConnell orders the Trump administration to provide full SNAP payments to states for November, finding that the administration did not comply with his order. Judge raises Trump's Truth social post as evidence that he intended to defy the order.

And Leslie Mehta in District 73!

#Acqitted #SandwichGuy My next question: will Subway find a way to market this? www.cnbc.com/2025/11/06/s...

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

Well done #WilliamsburgVA We don’t like seeing our neighbors kidnapped/unlawfully brutalized and/or detained by ICE. Thanks to all who turned out on Wednesday. www.wavy.com/news/local-n...

DEMS WILL INVEST IN #VA01 FOR THE FIRST TIME IN DECADES! VA01 Dems, our hard work is finally paying off! We owe a lot to the inspiring campaigns that our new District 71 Delegate-elect @jess4va.com ran! (And thanks to past VA01 challengers like Leslie Mehta, Herb Jones and Qasim Rashid)

It’s the usual from Wittman: claim to help families while stomping on their futures. Clinics have closed in VA because of HR1; fewer people have Medicaid; insurance costs are way up; cost of living rising. And Wittman keeps rewarming this sour stew and telling us we should be grateful.

Small business owners (traditionally Republican leaning) should be ticked off too. The expensing changes actually benefit large businesses the most, while business owners and individuals in distressed areas receive almost nothing. 3/

Families need help NOW. But unlike billionaires who walk away with $1,000s, most American families will TEMPORARILY get just $600/year in savings. Tax breaks on overtime and tips are temporary and start in 2026. The Trump Newborn Accounts benefit higher-income families in practice. 2/

Despite the massive rebuke of Tues night, Wittman is turning the propaganda up to 11. It’s simple: he voted to rip healthcare and food away from Virginians so billionaires got permanent tax breaks. All this other stuff? Window dressing. 🧵 @henricodems.bsky.social @wjccindivisible.bsky.social

My Short answer: no Long answer: no, but #RobWittman WILL probably find a way to get an above the fold headline in regional press that makes him appear to be doing something But ya know, who knows, maybe Rob will prove me wrong this time. #VA01 deserves better representation.

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative electrek.co/2025/11/04/a...

👀 ❄️ is that a snowflake in my #WilliamsburgVA forecast this week? I mean, sure, this town looks splendid covered in fresh fallen #snow… but couldn’t the frozen precipitation wait at least until they hang up all the fruity wreathes and stuff?

Big flags Big cars Big hair Big mouths Big boobs Big lies BIG BIG BIG Gawdy Cheesy Corny Ugly Over the top Ridiculous Plastic Outrageous Fake Loud It’s how they take up SPACE to obscure they are the minority. They are master manipulators. Don’t get gaslit. WE ARE WAY BIGGER. WE are the majority.

Dear #RobWittman, Please encourage your colleagues in the Senate to nuke their filibuster and reopen the government. These things Mike Johnson fears are actually pretty popular ideas (see 2025 election results for proof of how Virginians feel). Thanks, Your Constituents @wittmanwatch.bsky.social

This! Rare instance of publicly visible karma in action.

Dick Cheney did more than anyone else to build up expansive and destructive executive branch powers in the wake of 9/11; he lived to see another president turn those same powers against his own daughter. He should be a warning sign to the GOP today but too many of them are in the cult.

BLUESKY ELDER ELECTED NYC MAYOR

it’s like Dick Cheney dying was the civic version of when your ears finally pop

Now is the time to organize food drives in our neighborhoods. It’s also a great way to build relationships with local businesses. Here’s one in Williamsburg.

I'd missed this: Democratic-endorsed candidates *swept* the 6 school board races in Mecklenburg County, one of North Carolina's largest counties (home to Charlotte). This means there won't be a Republican on the board anymore; the sole GOP incumbent was ousted.

Dang, it's gonna be kind of neat that on the 250th anniversary next year, "Thomas Jefferson" after the ceremonial reading of the Declaration of Independence at Colonial Williamsburg, will hand off to an address by Virginia's first female governor.

We almost missed this one 😆

This is how you know ending the filibuster is a good idea and would ultimately lead to positive, tangible change for the country

Excessive force. PERIOD! They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor. 📌 Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.
