Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! This month, we celebrate the culture, contributions, and leadership of Hispanic and Latino Virginians who have helped build our Commonwealth (1/2).

Nothing beats great company and delicious barbecue. Loved catching up with leaders and activists from across Virginia who are fired up for this election season. Thanks to Senator Mark Warner and Lisa Collis for bringing us together!

The annual Collis Warner Pig Roast lived up to the hype—despite the rain! Thank you to @markwarnerva.bsky.social and Lisa Collis for hosting, and to @iamwesmoore.bsky.social for crossing the Potomac to help Virginia Democrats finish strong.

Spoke in Fredericksburg this morning with the Democratic Party of Virginia’s State Central Committee. These are the folks who keep our party running in every corner of Virginia, from organizing volunteers to registering voters.

One month out from Election Day, Virginians are fired up to vote. Beyond Fairfax is organizing across Virginia to help flip seats and take back the House majority. This morning, we knocked doors for Shannon Taylor in VA-01. Join us at fairfaxdemocrats.org/beyond.

A little rain didn’t stop us from showing up for Shannon Taylor in Henrico this morning! Shannon has spent 14 years as Henrico's top prosecutor, holding people accountable and keeping families safe. That's exactly what we need more of in Congress right now.

It’s too bad Mike Johnson sent the House home — because I was ready to vote to impeach Pete Hegseth. Our service members are being killed and wounded in an illegal war with Iran, and Hegseth is busy fighting culture wars. He needs to go.

Trump is trying to sow fear and chaos in advance of an election he knows he’s on track to lose. While Americans are worried about casting their ballots, Democrats are preparing for every scenario to protect every American’s right to vote.

James Walkinshaw @jameswalkinshaw.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

A TV ad for "the spirit of our country" that happens to star Donald Trump with footage from his campaign ads. Sure. Once again taxpayers are bankrolling the President’s ego.

Virginia, reproductive freedom is on the ballot. I’m voting YES on Question #1 and should too—on or before November 3rd. Want to help spread the word? Get involved at jameswalkinshaw.org/contact.

“Our policies are hurting Americans, but let’s keep going” is the entire Republican agenda this year. Vote them out this November.

Always great to start off the week with the Dulles Area Dems at Jimmy’s Old Town Tavern in Herndon! Thank you for the great conversation about the work ahead and all that’s at stake this November.

Woodleigh Chase is already showing up. So many folks in the room today had already cast their ballots, and it showed in the energy. Thank you for the thoughtful conversation, and thank you to @markwarnerva.bsky.social for being a part of it. Let’s finish strong.

James Walkinshaw @jameswalkinshaw.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Great afternoon at Greenspring with @markwarnerva.bsky.social. Thanks to everyone who came out with sharp questions for us. Senator Warner and I are both on the ballot, and conversations like these are how we win. Make your plan to vote and bring a neighbor.

Great to meet with folks at Greenspring Senior Living Community today. @jameswalkinshaw.bsky.social and I will keep fighting to lower costs, uphold the rule of law, and stand up for Virginia’s seniors. Thanks to all of you who have already cast your vote!

It's a very different economy if your last name is Trump. Regular hardworking Americans are facing rising grocery and gas costs. But if your last name is Trump, you get your wedding bankrolled by Russian oligarchs, and taxpayers are funding your tungsten mining investments in Kazakhstan.

Virginia, early voting begins today! Get out and cast your ballot. 🗳️

I’m officially back on the ballot today as early voting begins in Virginia! Virginians will also see Mark Warner for U.S. Senate and three state constitutional amendments on their ballot. ✅ Vote YES on Reproductive Freedom. ✅ Vote YES on Marriage Equality. ✅ Vote YES on Voting Rights.

From attacks on mail-in voting to his $5,000 attempted bribery, it’s obvious that Trump is desperate and knows he’s going to lose in November.

James Walkinshaw @jameswalkinshaw.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Trump tried to weaponize the U.S. Postal Service against voters just weeks before the start of the midterm elections. Tonight’s SCOTUS decision is a win for democracy and the millions of Americans who vote securely by mail every year. apnews.com/article/trum...

Thank you Fairfax Young Dems and Team Central Braddock for a great canvass launch this weekend! I’m grateful for our volunteers who are stepping up ahead of this year’s midterm elections.

James Walkinshaw @jameswalkinshaw.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

Trump wants to be the main character in every room and wants Virginia voters to act like he’s on the ballot this year. I agree. He’s on the ballot because Virginia Republicans are with him 100%. They chose loyalty to Trump over Virginia jobs.

Twenty-five years ago today, I was a freshman at NYU. I still remember the smoke and the smell that engulfed Lower Manhattan, the fear and confusion, and watching first responders run toward unimaginable danger (1/4).

Thanks to the Harrisonburg and Rockingham Dems for an amazing Labor Day celebration and tribute to working people last night! We’re ready to re-elect Sen. Warner, elect Beth Macy, and re-elect the incredible Democrats on the Harrisonburg City Council.

Trump’s tariffs—including a trade war with our ally Canada—are costing the average American family $2,500 a year. Trump is playing games while you pay the price.

James Walkinshaw @jameswalkinshaw.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

Trump’s ongoing trade war with Canada is driving up the cost of groceries, cars, and lumber. His priority today? Claiming to rename a lake.

Donald Trump voted by mail. But he wants to stop you from voting by mail. The Supreme Court’s preliminary decision allowing Trump to restrict mail-in voting is a direct attack on our rights just weeks before the midterms. apnews.com/article/trum...

What a great way to celebrate 10 years of Network NOVA’s Women’s Summit. For a decade, this community has shown what’s possible when women organize, build coalitions, and refuse to sit on the sidelines. As we head into the fights ahead, that work matters more than ever.

Virginia is on the front lines of the fight to flip the House this November and bring down costs for working families. Yesterday I brought together Democrats from across the region to support Shannon Taylor (VA-01), Elaine Luria (VA-02), and Tom Perriello (VA-05) in their campaigns for Congress.

You have to hand it to Karoline Leavitt. She was an effective spokesperson for Donald Trump.

“Whatever” seems to be Trump’s governing philosophy lately. Less than 100 days from the midterm elections, voters will render their verdict.

Last week’s bombshell report revealed that Elon Musk’s DOGE committed fraud against the American people, so I called on the DOGE Subcommittee to subpoena him. I’m not letting him off the hook. The question is whether House Republicans will.

Senate Republicans on the Judiciary Committee just told on themselves. They admit they won’t check Trump—then vote to hand his personal lawyer, Todd Blanche, total control of the DOJ.

6 deaths. Thousands of violent encounters. 22,000 ICE officers. Only ONE officer has faced discipline. When the message from the Oval Office is “no consequences,” this is what you get. A federal agency operating with total impunity.

Let me get this straight. Trump said that China pulled off “the largest compromise of election data in history.” Now he shrugs it off. But American election officials who won’t comply with his demands? His administration is threatening them with prison (1/2).
