Trump may be backing down, but not before blowing more than $10 million in taxpayer funds on political ads. Every day, this president finds a new way to waste Americans’ money while making life more expensive for working families.

Trump is doing everything he can to sow doubt in our free and fair elections. Every week, I’m fighting to protect the integrity of our elections and make sure that we’re ready to push back on whatever scheme this administration throws at the wall next.

Under a month until the election. Let’s stay vigilant to ALL interference — domestic or foreign.

Instead of doing literally anything to put any amount of safety in place around AI, Trump has a way dumber solution: let’s just give it a new name!

AI is already able to take over the backend of a bank, hospital, or water system. Standing by is not an option. (1/2)

And if Donald Trump’s cost-spiking war wasn’t enough… he’s now also lighting your tax dollars on fire with taxpayer-funded political ads to bolster his failing record.

This administration’s failed war of choice makes your housing, gas, and groceries more expensive.

Completely heartbreaking. We owe our servicemembers so much more than these forever wars.

I just fought on the Senate floor to try and overturn Trump’s union-busting executive orders that targeted hard-working federal employees. Republicans blocked it.

This administration has a clear pattern – skim funds, cut programs, and raise costs for everyday Americans… while they get everything they need and more.

Half of Virginia families with kids are food insecure. Why does Donald Trump care more about his ballroom?

As election day gets closer, Trump is trying to hide his failures from the press. The networks are refusing to go along with it. The president is scared because he knows the American people are going to hold him accountable for his skyrocketing costs and forever war.

Trump is withholding the $257 million Congress allocated to renovate the Kennedy Center. Instead, he’s shutting it down because he can’t put his name on the building. Why is the president more focused on naming monuments after his own ego than he is on governing?

From a @nytimes.com story today on disturbing new patterns of behavior from AI models. Let’s pass regulation NOW.

Make America Healthy Again…. Unless you want to breathe air, eat vegetables without getting explosive illnesses, or avoid measles.

For months, we’ve been warning about threats to our elections so we could lay the groundwork for moments like this. Glad to see the Supreme Court make the wise decision to throw out this bogus attempt at interference. We will keep fighting whatever scheme comes next.

Donald Trump claims we don’t need AI regulation… just a “high IQ” president. The bad news is we don’t have either. And we really need that AI regulation now.

Let me get this straight: Trump and his cronies are threatening to close the Kennedy Center unless his name is slapped on the building?

Yesterday, I cut the ribbon on a brand new VA outpatient clinic in Hampton Roads. It’s great news for Virginia’s vibrant veteran population, but we need to make sure this administration stops shrinking the VA workforce.

When I’m on the road across Virginia, I’m always on the hunt for a great peanut noodle, so I had to stop at Vang Go Bistro in Norfolk today — the noodles & dumplings were delicious! Virginia has the BEST small businesses with the kindest teams. Stop by if you’re in HRVA!

It was wonderful to cut the ribbon on a new outpatient VA clinic in Chesapeake this morning! I’ve fought for years to open more VA facilities across the Commonwealth, and I’ll always keep up my fight to make VA care stronger and easier to access.

I will not stop until we get Virginia to universal broadband coverage. It was wonderful to be in beautiful Giles County last week talking about the road to get there.

Trump’s chaos at the Postal Service is putting Americans’ votes at risk. No voter should have their ballot thrown out because the mail didn’t arrive on time. Every American deserves to have their voice heard and their vote counted.

Our military leaders agree that prolonging this war of choice with Iran risks the U.S.’s ability to fight threats at home and abroad. The president’s war is making no one safer.

Once again, Trump is lashing out at the free press – showing contempt for the Constitution, an utter disregard for facts, and a willingness to deceive the American people when the truth doesn’t serve his own fragile ego.

Blessed to end my day today in Craig County hearing from local leaders and seeing the New Castle Volunteer Fire Department! Every single county — from our biggest to some of our least populous — is important to me. What a privilege to meet as many Virginians as possible.

Took in the beauty of Giles County this afternoon while I convened a group of local leaders to discuss broadband expansion! I’m not leaving any county behind as I continue my fight for universal broadband coverage across the Commonwealth.

We’re 6 months into Trump’s war of choice with Iran, and the president has nothing to show for it. Rather than focusing on ending this war and bringing down costs for Americans, Trump is busy renaming Lake Ontario to Lake America.

I was deeply humbled to drop off federal funding for Washington County Public Schools for two new accessible playgrounds. Hearing from kids who will finally be able to play together in school was a reminder of why we do this – I will never, ever stop fighting for these projects.

Spent this afternoon touring the Bland Ministry Center Dental Clinic and meeting with local leaders… then congratulated the girls’ tennis team on winning Bland County High School’s first-ever team state championship! It’s always great to be celebrating the successes of Southwest Virginia.

Ready for Trump’s latest effort to sow doubt in our elections? He’s pulling ICE officers responsible for screening immigration applications for security threats and tasking them with screening voter data for noncitizens — despite no evidence of widespread noncitizen voting.

Great afternoon in Richlands delivering federal funding for public safety & rescue equipment. Southwest Virginia has seen some really severe flooding these past couple years — I’m determined to make sure they have the best technology available to save lives.

Had the best morning in Abingdon dropping off $750,000 for new playgrounds at the local public schools! It was wonderful to hear from the parents of disabled children about how these new sets will allow their kids to play with everyone else for the very first time.

More reports are highlighting what we’ve been hearing for weeks: Trump’s war of choice with Iran is draining critical weapons stockpiles and weakening our military readiness.

One of the best parts of my job? Stopping at the best small businesses across Virginia — today for a cheeseburger & ice cream cone at Hob-Nob in Gate City. We led the whole restaurant in a big happy birthday song for a 104-year-old resident. I love the warmth and spirit of SWVA.

Spent my afternoon in Bristol honoring the life-saving efforts of first responders during severe flooding and dropping off big federal money for new municipal vehicles! I’ll always keep working to bring tons of funding to communities in every corner of the Commonwealth.

Now is not the time to roll back oversight of data centers. Americans deserve to know how these facilities will impact their communities. That’s why I’ve introduced legislation that would require data centers to be transparent about their energy and water use, emissions, and other key impacts.

Great to be in Pennington Gap talking about the $26.5 million we secured to expand a critical local sewer project. From local hospitals to wastewater concerns, I’ll never stop fighting for the needs of Lee County and all of Southwest Virginia.

For years, I’ve been pushing legislation to hold social media companies accountable for designing platforms that intentionally addict young people.

I look forward to seeing the details of this settlement. My DETOUR Act would directly halt some of the deceptive practices that led to this settlement, and not just from Meta but across all social media platforms.

Our country lost a true American original yesterday. Dolly Parton embodied the best of the American spirit — overcoming adversity, bringing people together with kindness, and carrying an unapologetic love for her country throughout her remarkable life and career.

Last year, DOGE gutted the federal workforce. Now farmers across the country are paying the price.

This administration is making Americans sicker with historic cyclospora and measles outbreaks… while making it harder and harder to afford basic health care.

Under Trump’s leadership, the only thing worse than being America’s enemy is being our ally.

Holy crap. Donald Trump is turning his back on our allies to stand with North Korea.

Again, I would urge the president to actually sit down with the crew that just came back on the new-design USS Ford. If he did, he wouldn’t be wasting his time and your money talking about changing the "look."

I also had the opportunity to sit down with local leaders to discuss the bipartisan ROAD to Housing Act and other efforts to tackle the current housing crisis facing Virginians.

We saw it with the USS Ford, and now we’re seeing it with the USS Lincoln. These carriers’ extended deployments put the health and well-being of our sailors at risk. President Trump needs to end his war of choice and stop straining our military and servicemembers.

Senator Mark Warner @markwarner.bsky.social · 14/08/2026
The president wants to spend your money to go back to a 60-year old design. I’ll take the view of the sailors and engineers on what works.
