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

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 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
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 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.
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 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.
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
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
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
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
When I told Trump to jump in the Gulf of Maine, I meant it. This case was never about election security. It was about trying to bully states into handing over voters' personal data to an administration that had no right to it.

1/2 www.instagram.com/reel/DYdGOqN... It feels surreal watching history repeat itself. It’s heartbreaking that we’re going through this again. I don’t understand how rights and laws can be reshaped this way when Congress is supposed to be the branch that creates legislation.
From start to finish, this shutdown — and all of the airport lines — is the fault of the Republicans. Senate Republicans agreed to end the shutdown but House Republicans rejected them. Fix your own damn mess.
Die Menschen in Ungarn haben die Hoffnung und eine neue Zukunft gewählt. Nun muss die Zeit genutzt werden für Reformen, wie z.B. das EU-Vetorecht. Die Bundesregierung muss den Schalter jetzt umlegen, für ein starkes und souveränes Europa.

Trump on the UFC cage on the White House lawn: I told yesterday the story of the Eiffel Tower, and it was 1889. It was going to be brought down right after the World's Fair ended, was up for a short while. Then they said, let's leave it a little longer. It never came down.
