Good to see this from @knappforcongress.bsky.social: "Shannon Taylor is our nominee, and she has my full support and endorsement. I got into this race to unseat Rob Wittman. That goal has not wavered and it has not diminished." bluevirginia.us/2026/08/nate...
"🎉ENDORSEMENT ALERT🎉
Shannon Taylor is our nominee, and she has my full support and endorsement.
I got into this race to unseat Rob Wittman. That goal has not wavered and it has not diminished. Nearly 50,000 Virginians voted in this primary.
That is real change, and more change is coming." - Jason Knapp

Americas First District, I hope you give me a chance to represent you against Rob Wittman for VA-01's Congressional seat.

Because since 2007 Rob Wittman has done nothing but enrich himself and not deliver on promises made to those who need help the most in one of the most rural and veteran-heavy districts in the country.

The choice you make in the election tomorrow hopefully reflects who you think has the best chance of changing the status quo, of getting money out of politics and back in our pockets where it belongs. #virginia #VA01 #congress2026 #August4th #veterans

But in this contested primary of 7 candidates, I believe I have the best record, experience, policies, and heart to take Rob Wittman on in November. I hope I’ve earned your vote this August 4th.

This race encapsulates what Americans are feeling across the nation across both parties—the establishment telling the people who to support, money in politics and not in the pockets of the people, and a never-ending cycle of hypocritical “rules for thee and not for me."

I took an oath to the Constitution and this country, just like Rob Wittman. Unlike him, though, I won’t rest until the cycle of corruption is broken. www.instagram.com/reel/Dbjat1gDEI7/… #VA01 #Virginia #RobWittman #Congress #veteran

One candidate leads. One follows the money. We don’t need another corporate-backed establishment candidate. We need a proven leader who answers only to the people of VA-01. 🗳️ Vote Jason Knapp in the primary on August 4th.

❌ National Security Experience: To stand up to Rob Wittman and address today’s complex global challenges, experience matters. As a veteran with a national security background, I have the real-world experience needed to lead on day one.

Jason Knapp for Virginia @knappforvirginia.bsky.social · 31/07/2026
❌ Establishment Half-Measures: My opponent won’t commit to universal healthcare or fundamental systemic reform. Protecting the corporate status quo leaves millions of Americans one diagnosis away from financial ruin.

Jason Knapp for Virginia @knappforvirginia.bsky.social · 31/07/2026
❌ Corporate PAC & Dominion Money: Shannon Taylor takes money from special interests and Monopoly Utilities. I reject every single dime of corporate PAC money—because my accountability is to you, not deep-pocketed donors.

Comments close tonight on Google's Project Skye in Chesterfield. 887 acres. About 18 acres of wetland and a mile and a half of stream are filled permanently. The impacts table was never published. The state paused its own review five days ago because the application was incomplete.

The data center “water issue” is not one thing. It is three. NoVa’s problem is how much gets taken out. RVA’s is what gets destroyed. Ours on the Northern Neck is that we cannot get it back. Want to understand? I wrote it up: jasonknappforcongress.substack.com/p/same-indus...

Hardworking Americans all over are starting to reject the elected officials (at all levels of government) who work behind closed doors and greedily take these big corporations' money for their campaigns. Let's change the status quo on our fast-approaching primary on August 4th.

Regulations, transparency, and accountability. The engineering that goes into data centers and AI is incredibly complicated, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see through the deception going on across the country and the detriment it is and will have for our and future generations. #Virginia

You don’t need to be running for office or a sitting representative to be the difference you want to be in your community. There’s a proposed data center in Chesterfield County, Virginia, that threatens to pave over our precious wetlands. #Virginia #DataCenters #VA01 #Chesterfield

House Democrats keep saying they don’t have the power. That’s not true. They already have discharge petitions, shadow hearings, GAO requests, IG referrals, and privileged resolutions. One of those tools just forced the Epstein files into the open.

Standards without having the public be able to speak their mind about them doesn't spark the confidence and trust it should in that our local boards and commissions have our best interests in mind. That cycle ends with us.

One of my biggest gripes with these data center companies is how often these deals have us foot the bill–while our rates go up and the environment gets abused. #DataCenters #RateHikes #Transparency #Virginia #VA01

When elected, I won't allow the copper wiring of the housing industry to continue to be stripped for profit at the cost of you and your family. When the foundation begins to show cracks, how can we expect every other part of the economy to withstand the shockwaves of growing housing instability?

Foundations are meant to be reliable, stable, and built to last. Our current representatives actively voted to diminish our country's foundation and make your agency in obtaining a home more difficult.
