#VA01's Rob Wittman spreads disinformation, refuses to meet anyone but donors, and hands regular Virginians’ $$$ to billionaires. Enough! We can replace him in Nov 2026. Follow us to learn the truth behind his lies and cowardice. linktr.ee/wittmanwatch

Last year Wittman wrote this to a #VA01 constituent.

Now Trump has lifted sanctions and is allowing Russia to sell oil to funnel billions to its attacks on Ukraine.

What is Wittman's response? 🦗🦗🦗

His silence means he's complicit.

Is Wittman still in Congress? A mass murderer faces a firing squad; Hegseth wants a live stream to awaken the extremists. Trump asks Putin for help with problems he created. The Iran war wages on with no end in sight. The GOP is fiddling while America burns. Rob just can’t quit MAGA.

Well well!

@wittmanwatch.bsky.socialOct 10, 2026, 11:11 AM

Last year Wittman said he stood behind Ukraine 100% and that Putin was a threat to global peace.

But now Trump is funneling billions to Russia because of the disastrous Iran War, Rob is silent.

Treachery comes in all forms, and one of them is complicit silence.

#VA01 must not re-elect Wittman.

Ah yes, Jim Spencer writes about Wittman from a position of authority! His columns often appear on his Substack some days later. Let's hope this one does!

Yes, Stuart Hanckel of Hanover! YES!! 💪💪💪👏👏👏

Let's recap

Trump is:

❌Lifting sanctions against Russia
❌To fund its aggression
❌Against our ally Ukraine
❌To drive down sky-high diesel
❌Caused by a stupid war
❌That Trump started...

❌...And Rob Wittman 💯 supports

He says he's "fighting for families, veterans, farmers, and watermen": that's 🐂💩 and we can prove it: www.wittmanwatch.com/wtf.

We're paying attention, Rob. You're fired.

@wittmanwatch.bsky.socialOct 10, 2026, 10:16 AM

A new Wittman fundraising blather says "Democrats want the same agenda running Virginia from the Governor’s Mansion all the way to Washington." VA Dems are actually improving our lives but Rob would prefer that we fight each rather than pay attention to the GOP's failures and corruption.

Another week, another set of @rva-indivisible.bsky.social protests! We love seeing this energy. 💪💪💪

“Don’t Believe the Lies”: Henrico Father Defends Shannon Taylor in New Ad, Calls Out Rob Wittman for Exploiting His Family’s Pain; Father of NICU abuse victim to Wittman: “take these ads down immediately” bluevirginia.us/2026/10/vide... cc: @wittmanwatch.bsky.social @henricodems.bsky.social

“Don’t Believe the Lies”: Henrico Father Defends Shannon Taylor in New Ad, Calls Out Rob Wittman for Exploiting His Family’s Pain
Father of NICU abuse victim to Wittman: “take these ads down immediately”

HENRICO, Va. — Henrico’s top prosecutor Shannon Taylor released a new ad, “Justice,” in her campaign for Congress in Virginia’s 1st District. In it, Dom, the father of one of the newborns abused in a Henrico NICU, responds to Rob Wittman’s false attacks on Shannon’s record.

In addition to appearing in the ad, Dom’s family provided the following statement: 

“As parents, we cannot express what it meant to have Shannon on our side during this case. From our very first conversation, she assured us that if they caught the person who hurt our son, she would make sure he had justice. She kept that promise, fighting for our son every single day. Our family will always be deeply grateful to Shannon for bringing the abuser of our child to justice.

It is shameful and deeply painful to see what happened to our child now being used for politics. Our family’s trauma is not a game or a tool to be used by a politician. I demand that Representative Wittman take these ads down immediately. We will always be deeply grateful to Shannon for standing with our family and fighting to bring justice to our child.”

WATCH “Justice” HERE:

Transcript:

DOM: It was abuse — our newborn’s broken bone.

My wife and I felt completely helpless. We didn’t know where to turn.

Then Shannon Taylor stepped in and got our baby justice.

Shannon convicted that abusing nurse, with a sentence six times tougher than the state law recommends.

Then went to the Capitol to change the law, so that this never happens again.

Don’t believe the lies. Shame on you, Rob Wittman. Using my family’s pain to smear Shannon.

SHANNON TAYLOR: I’m Shannon Taylor, and I approve this message.

Facts of the case:

Polls keep moving in @shannontaylorva.com's direction and away from Rob Wittman. Almost all polls now have #VA01 as a "toss up" or "Lean Democratic" race.

DO NOT GET COMPLACENT, FOLKS!

Get out the vote!

@wittmanwatch.bsky.socialOct 9, 2026, 1:26 PM

Voters aren't stupid - especially about their wallets. Wittman is betting he can hoodwink voters into ignoring his/Trump's epic failures by throwing red meat about "socialism" and culture wars that change nothing for the better.

It's not working for him. Just like he's never worked for us in #VA01.

Taylor touts ‘anti-corruption’ platform in 1st District race against Wittman: https://mrf.lu/2f7Jv

“Shame on you Rob Wittman” is right. For more detail on just how cynically Wittman has weaponized these families’ pain, see our piece from earlier this year.

@wittmanwatch.bsky.socialOct 8, 2026, 7:44 PM

This is a HECK of a profile of Taylor’s work as a prosecutor. She didn’t just hold criminals accountable. She improved the system to capture more of those committing crimes, and to take on corruption.
