This is the big news in one of the most overlooked districts in the country. My opponent, Ann Wagner, TRIPLED her net worth in office. And hasn’t held a single town hall or voted once to stop Trump. I’m a veteran, dad, and social entrepreneur running to defeat her in this must-win swing district.

Katie generously offered to donate proceeds from the evening to the campaign and it was an honor to talk to everyone about why we need hope in this moment and how we turn it into action. We’re not done yet! @wellmanformo.bsky.social

Tonight’s all new ‘On Democracy with FPWellman’ features Washington Post writer @joshrogin.bsky.social on the Iran War and the deeply corrupt and suspicious oil futures trades occurring before major Trump announcements. It isn’t an Army soldier moving $760M in trades.

All new On Democracy podcast tonight with @krisgoldsmith85.bsky.social on the outrageous failures of leadership of Pete Hegseth and the Trump Administration as they send our sons and daughters to war with no thought of the consequences. Catch us live at 7pm ET on @meidastouch.com

Missouri’s own President Harry Truman famously said “I don’t give ‘em hell. I tell the truth on them and it feels like hell!” I was thinking about the leaders I served under and the failed ones we have today. We deserve better. Join me. We’re not done yet! @wellmanformo.bsky.social #TeamWellman

Great conversation with Texas AG candidate Tony Box for ‘On Democracy.’ He’s a fellow former Army officer and combat veteran as well as an FBI Agent, Congressional investigator and prosecutor. He knows what right looks like and this isn’t it. Watch it now on @meidastouch.com

It’s time for a new rep in Washington DC and I’m ready to go. There is so much that needs to be done for MO-2 and I’m going to work hard on day one. More from my great conversation with Sarah Fenske on STL Magazine’s 314 Podcast. Check it out now! @wellmanformo.bsky.social @stlmag.bsky.social

What a week for Team Wellman. From Jefferson City to Creve Coeur including our first town hall, the State of the State address, and 3 meet and greet events across the 2nd district. Back at it tomorrow! Join us and be part of #TeamWellman. We’re not done yet! #missouri @wellmanformo.bsky.social

This week Ann Wagner voted against extending subsidies for ACA subscribers. She hasn’t explained why she doesn’t care about her constituents struggling to make ends meet. Perhaps because in her 13 years of public “service” her stock portfolio has increased by nearly $20 million? (1/2)

You don’t just grab the leader of a nation twice the size of Texas and declare victory. Have we learned nothing in the last 25 years? How does any of this improve the lives of Americans? Congress must act immediately! Do your jobs! @wellmanformo.bsky.social #teamwellman #venezuela #missouri #mo2

While Missourians are worried about paying for Christmas and their skyrocketing energy and health insurance costs, Ann Wagner is working hard to help corporations avoid outside watchdogs and advisors for investors. She can’t be bothered to help the people that elected her. @wellmanformo.bsky.social

The affordability crisis isn’t a “con job” or the price of eggs. It’s a whole of economy disaster for working Americans. Ann Wagner has ignored it for 13 years while increasing her own wealth to over $26 million. We need leaders willing to do hard things. wellmanformo.bsky.social #TeamWellman

I spent the last day of the holiday weekend wandering the southwestern part of the 2nd District along Route 66. Got a chance to talk to working folks and small business owners and learned even more about this beautiful portion of Missouri. So much to fight for! @wellmanformo.bsky.social #TeamWellman

It’s Small Business Saturday! Get out there and shop local today! The snow and rain are moving out and there is plenty of time to shop our many local small businesses that need your support! @wellmanformo #TeamWellman #maplewood #Missouri #smallbusinesssaturday

Calling on our service members to remember their training isn’t controversial. Using “trust me bro” as justification for killing in international waters should be. Where is the Republican Doormat Congress? @wellmanformo.bsky.social #teamwellman #Missouri #military #veteran #StLouis #Congress

We are off to a great start! I’d be honored to have your support as we take back this seat and flip the House. #TeamWellman #Missoruri @wellmanformo.bsky.social

Democrats have learned that the Republicans won’t keep any deals they make and Trump will do whatever he wants. They aren’t falling for the lies anymore. Delaware Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester joined me for this week’s On Democracy on @meidastouch.com

They dismantled the one agency that was focused exclusively on helping average Americans being abused by banks and fraudulent lenders. It was their first priority. I had a great chat with former director of CFPB Director @choprausa.bsky.social on On Democracy on @MeidasTouch this week. (1/2)

It’s the silence of the Republican House you need to hear. They aren’t doing anything. No oversight. No work. Trying to blame Democrats for their incompetence. We have voices. Use them peacefully and patriotically to protest your government. They want violence. Don’t give it to them.

Congress has walked away from their Article I Constitutional duty. They're no longer a coequal branch of government. They've prostrated themselves to Trump. Rep. Jason Crow and I discussed how the Republicans have walked away from their duty. This isn't both sides. Catch it all on @meidastouch.com

I had a great chat today with Rep. Jason Crow about the insanity on Capitol Hill. We are both former Army officers and the cowardice of the silent is as bad as those on the front line. The cynical cowardice like my opponent Ann Wagner who hide from the spotlight but compliantly go along with it all.

My opponent thinks we are suckers. She thinks we don’t see through her smoke and mirrors on the shutdown. It’s easy to skip a paycheck when you’re a multimillionaire like she is. She’s out of touch and out of gas. Let’s replace her with someone who wants to do the work. @wellmanformo.bsky.social

It has been a whirlwind two days. From our launch yesterday to four media interviews today. Nearly 2,000 folks have stepped up to donate to our grassroots campaign. It’s humbling. We are working to come out swinging and take back MO-2 and help working Missourians. ICMYI our kick off video.

All new ‘On Democracy with FPWellman’ coming up at 7pm ET exclusively on @meidastouch.com with Texas Rep. Gina Hinojosa on the outrageous district rigging by the states Republicans for Donald Trump. Splitting her city into 5 pieces! Catch it tonight! @ginaforaustin.bsky.social
