Loved formally reintroducing myself to so many friends at @stldems.bsky.social as the Democratic candidate for Missouri's 2nd Congressional District. We deserve representation in Congress that actually shows up for us & is proud to call #MO02 home.

I had a great time visiting @smart-union.bsky.social Local36. They have an incredible facility with a record number of apprentices. In Congress, it will be an honor to fight for their rights, healthcare & opportunities. Together, we will #PassTheProAct & build a strong Missouri for working families.

Ann Wagner has demonstrated that in her mind, the Epstein scandal is about Donald Trump, about herself & about her re-election campaign. She's wrong. This is about standing up & saying that nothing, absolutely nothing, is worth compromising the well-being of America's children.

The Senate snuck in multimillion dollar payouts to 8 Senators including Missouri's own Josh Hawley! They are getting paid for a legal investigation while the GOP pretends they are helping working people. Our taxes are just a piggy bank for the Republican Doormat Congress.

Ann Wagner has spent years polishing the boots of a regime that keeps selling Missouri out. Now a $197 million investment and more than a hundred good jobs are gone because she refuses to stand up for this state. www.stltoday.com/news/local/g...

Don Looney kicked off his run for Missouri House District 63 in Wentzville in the way only he can: a packed bar in downtown with friends, family, UAW members, elected representatives, candidates and more, including Heather Fleming, Mark Osmack & Crystal Quade.

We need a Missouri that is built by those who live here, not by the powerful few in Washington. Last night, 250 people joined us on a cold Tuesday night in November to spread our message. Together, we will take back Missouri.

Rep. Ann Wagner built her career claiming to fight human trafficking. But when it comes time to shine light on one of the darkest child sex trafficking scandals in modern history, she chooses to embrace the alleged perpetrators rather than stand with survivors.

I am furious at what Washington has become. The Republican Party’s sold out working families to billionaires & special interests. D.C. Democrats are out of touch & unwilling to confront the scale of the suffering people are enduring. Read my full statement on the shutdown:

November 11th. Veterans Day. Kirkwood Performing Arts Center. Let’s take Missouri back tr.ee/ZJ7g8h

One month running for Congress: $225,000+ Raised. $27.92 Average donation. 6,426 Unique donors. 264 Volunteers registered. This is what grassroots support looks like. And I'm so thankful for all of you.

It’s Election Day across the country, with important races in NYC, New Jersey, Virginia, major votes in California & local elections nationwide, including right here in Missouri. Check whether there’s an election in your community & make a plan to vote: www.vote411.org

I never thought I'd see the President partying like Gatsby & using taxpayer $$$ to install a new toilet instead of funding SNAP benefits. But here we are. So we’re doing what leaders — what Congress — should do; showing up for our neighbors & taking care of our community.

This morning, Team Wellman stepped up to serve our community. We hosted a food drive for families who are supposed to be receiving SNAP benefits, & organized: 18 orgs, elected officials & candidates 300+ boxes packed for families 4,368 lbs of food collected

Join us tomorrow for an Emergency Food Drive from 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM at the UFCW Local 655 Union Hall in Ballwin! Stop by, say hello, and drop off pasta sauce, dry cereal, canned foods & other pantry staples. Want to lend a hand? Volunteer here 👇

🚨Emergency Food Drive-Thru this Saturday, Nov 1, 10–12 pm at UFCW Local 655, 300 Weidman Rd, Ballwin. Drive up and we will unload your shelf-stable goods. Volunteers needed. Sign up: tr.ee/CQqGTZ #FoodDrive #Ballwin #STL

I had a great time yesterday at the West County Smokin’ for Veterans BBQ Bash Competition at Clancy’s Irish Pub in Ellisville sponsored by AMVETS and St. Louis BBQ Society. Great food, helicopters, antique equipment, and fellow veterans is a perfect way to spend a Saturday.

Republicans are bragging about “doing their job” because they passed a continuing resolution. But their job wasn’t to pass a CR. It was to pass a budget. They failed. Then they went home.

ICE murdered a family’s dog & lied about it. Agents raided a home on a bad tip, shot a dog named Chop, & let him bleed out while they hid. DHS covered it up. Congress stayed silent. This is what happens when no one’s watching the watchers. I’m done with the silence. youtu.be/paYRtlE5e_I?...

Sometimes accessibility is as easy as setting up a place to build a fort and being patient if the laughter gets a bit loud #moleg #mo2 Nice set up, @chesterfielddems.bsky.social Did you know their President is only 32?! Had a blast with in Manchester tonight, thanks for having me 🇺🇸🦾🎃 #moleg #mo2

When Congress abandons its duty of oversight the foundations of democracy crumble with the walls. That’s why I’m running to defeat Ann Wagner. Join our campaign today. #Fred2026

A bigger ballroom = more people = more expense for the taxpayers. They want to cut food benefits for poor people while also wanting the ability to host larger, more frequent fancy dinners at the White House.

NO KINGS. NO MASTERS. NO DICTATORS. On Saturday, 7 million Americans marched for democracy while Trump mocked them, Putin grinned and Kavanaugh sharpened his pen. This isn’t left vs. right. It’s freedom vs. fascism. The people are done kneeling. NEW SUBSTACK 👇

No Kings protests are today & this movement illustrates that we the people do not want to be “ruled,” we want fair representation in a government made up of the people. It’s so important that we take back this seat from someone who is only in it for her rich friends. Be safe out there! #TeamWellman

A resident of my district said something to me yesterday at an event in St. Charles that struck me. She’s about to lose her healthcare and she’s been trying to reach my opponent but she never answers constituents. She’s famous for that. We deserve Reps that want the job! @wellmanformo.bsky.social

It’s time for Missouri’s 2nd Congressional District to be represented by someone who understands and listens to all constituents. Ann Wagner is only here to serve her rich friends and does not care that so many are struggling to make ends meet. It’s time for change! #teamwellman #congress #mo2

Day 16 of the Trump shutdown, where every day feels like a year for American citizens. #TrumpShutdownBadForUS

War, loss, and hardship didn’t break me—they made me fight harder. Now I'm fighting for you. I'm running for Congress to take back Missouri’s 2nd District from Ann Wagner, who’s tripled her net worth while selling us out. Stand with me: secure.actblue.com/donate/fw26_...

Team Wellman has been all over District 2 this week, from Mehlville, to Washington, to last night in Wildwood. @fpwellman.bsky.social has been out listening to constituents who are ready for a change. Tonight we'll be at Do Something St. Charles. Come join us! #Fred2026

My opponent Ann Wagner is busily posting away on her social media about the "far left radical agenda"...of wanting affordable healthcare. At least 21,500 citizens of MO-2 are going to lose their healthcare and probably more from lack of affordable options. She doesn't care. #TeamWellman

Great evening in Wildwood supporting Claire Heinrich as she kicked off her campaign for Missouri’s 110th District. Claire’s exactly the kind of leader we need—smart, grounded, and ready to fight for Missouri families. #NotDoneYet

They are terrified. They are losing. We have a fundamental right to gather. That’s as American as it gets.

We deserve someone who will actually work for us.

Speaker Johnson, you ready to swear me in?

Thrilled to see one of the cities within Missouri’s 2nd Congressional District get such recognition. This is a fantastic district made up of many great towns & cities. It’s time to win it back! #TeamWellman #MO2 #Missouri #Congress #MOLeg

So proud The Democratic Women's Caucus marching to Speaker Johnson's office demanding Adelita Grijalva gets sworn in

ICE targeted an apartment building near my home. Masked agents in unmarked cars. I've said this before. Democratic Governors & Mayors need to order their local police depts to arrest any & all unidentified & masked alleged ICE agents. This anonymous denial of due process is deadly. 1/2

The is literally nothing more American and patriotic than declaring: No Kings.

This is the face of the health care crisis in America.    It’s what I’m fighting to change.

Two weeks in to the Republican Shutdown and Ann Wagner is pretending to care about food aid after voting to cut millions off of it to give tax breaks to her rich friends. Missouri’s 2nd Congressional District deserves better. We’re not done yet! #TeamWellman #MO2 #Missouri #Congress #MOLeg

I had the opportunity to sit down with Wildwood mayor Joe Garritano & discuss the challenges & needs of this sprawling city in west St. Louis county from continued need for high speed internet to worries about flooding and erosion control. Appreciate his time to help me understand the needs of CD2.

Stay strong, stay beautiful, Chicago. c

A mother pulled from her car in a school pickup line by masked ICE agents, in front of her child. What are we doing? We can’t look away. We can’t let this become normal. This campaign isn’t just about politics — it’s about who we are. #NotDoneYet #MO02 #WellmanForCongress youtu.be/nkplNzb3hvw

Enjoying the beauty of Washington, MO during today’s walk and talk. There is so much to see and do in this district! We are heading into this fight to take back the 2nd Congressional District. #TeamWellman #MO2 #Missouri #Congress #MOLeg

Had a great walk with my friend & former Mehlville School Board President Kevin Schartner in Cliff Cave Park discussing issues facing South St. Louis County residents. Then I swung by the brand new Tous de Jours bakery in Manchester for their grand opening. Be sure to check it out soon!

Only a government run by billionaires would berate its employees for not wanting to work without pay.
