Who at DOJ decided to break the law by making illegal redactions to the Epstein files and withholding documents?
Pam Bondi knows the answer.

Dad. Husband. VA-11 Congressman. Rep. Connolly’s longtime Chief of Staff. Personal account.
- As I promised, I arrived at the U.S. Capitol at 9:00 am. My hope is that Speaker Johnson follows the precedent he set and that I’m sworn in right away to begin serving Fairfax families in Congress.
00:00 - Honored to be sworn in today to represent VA-11 in Congress. Fairfax families will always come first. Grateful to my wife Yvette and our son Mateo for their love and support every step of the way.
- Trump and Vought are “punishing” Democrats by cutting opioid addiction treatment and prevention that is most desperately needed in rural communities.Absolute savage damage done by RIFs this weekend to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, where staffing levels appear to be near 1/3 where they were at the beginning of the year.
- I am humbled by the confidence that Fairfax voters have placed in me. On Day One, I am ready to stand up for Fairfax. From taking on DOGE to defending our democracy, I will fight every single day to deliver results for the people of the 11th District. Read my full statement ⬇️
- Also a backlash to @GlennYoungkin craven decision to cheerlead as Virginians lost their jobs by the thousands. I’ve never seen anything like it, and it will define his term as Governor.In hindsight, James Walkinshaw’s 50 point win in the VA-11 special was foreshadowing Everyone waved it off as just another Dem special over performance But NOVA results show a huge backlash to changes in DC GOP gains here after 2020 wiped out
- The Chairman of the FCC, Brendan Carr, bullied ABC into cancelling Jimmy Kimmel. Censorship is un-American and an attack on freedom speech, the foundation of our democracy. The FCC Chairman must resign and the Trump Administration’s efforts to stifle free speech must end.
00:00 - Today is Election Day! I want to go to Congress to be your ally, but I need your help. Polls are open from 6:00 am to 7:00 pm — make your voice heard and remind a friend to vote! Find everything you need here: jameswalkinshaw.org/vote
00:00 - I’m honored & humbled to have earned the Democratic nomination for the district I’ve spent my career serving. This victory was powered by neighbors, volunteers, and supporters who believe in protecting our democracy, defending our freedoms, and delivering for working families. ⬇️
- 🧵1/7 Today, I’m proud to announce that I’m running for Congress in Virginia’s 11th District — to stop Trump’s dangerous agenda and build a government that works for all of us.
00:00 - I’m disgusted and horrified to see the news that Charlie Kirk has been shot in Utah. Political violence has no place in our nation and should be universally condemned. My thoughts are with him and his family.
- My first few days in Congress have been jam-packed! ✅ Introduced my 1st bill to protect federal workers from unjust DOGE cuts. ✅ Signed the Epstein discharge petition. ✅ Gave my 1st floor speech calling out Trump’s harmful policies. It’s an honor to serve Fairfax families.
00:00 - Gerry Connolly was a mentor, a friend, and one of the most formative figures in my life.
- At the polls this morning with Gerry’s wife Smitty & daughter Caitlin, I heard voters share how he touched their lives throughout his service. His legacy lives on in Fairfax. If elected today, I’ll continue his work fighting for our values. Make your voice heard before 7 pm!
