I'm Oliver Larkin, a Democratic Socialist, union organizer, and Bernie 2016 staffer, running for Congress in FL-23 to abolish ICE, win Medicare for All, and build a working-class democracy. I'm running because an affordable South Florida is worth the fight.

Today , we hosted a conversation on building careers in political data with Andrew Blythe (F'05, MS'13), Tom Bonier, Fall 2022 Fellow Alex Lundry (MPP'04), and Liam O'Rourke at the Capitol Campus. Thank you for joining us and sharing your experiences! Stay tuned for more career chats this semester!

Yes! Kill the Ring camera. Kill it dead.

10 years ago today, I was working in @BernieSanders' field office in Portsmouth on the day of the NH primary. I quit my job as a line cook and drove up from FL in July 2015 to help organize when Bernie was down 75%-15% in the polls. Grassroots organizing can change the country.

My name is Oliver Larkin and I am the Democrat primarying Jared Moskowitz. I’m a Bernie 2016 staffer, union organizer, and DSA member. I am running for Congress because South Florida deserves a representative who will oppose genocide, not one who enables it.

Yesterday, we held a two-part conversation with former Fellows who worked in the Obama, Biden, and first Trump administrations on the first year of Trump's second term and what the outlook is for the next three. Stay tuned for more pop-up discussion groups with former Fellows!

Before Dr. King’s “I Have A Dream” speech in Washington, DC at the March On Washington For Jobs & Freedom, he came to South Florida, and spoke at the historic Hampton House. Happy MLK Day.

Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now. If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.

I want to talk about a dystopian world we are entering - where every moment, event, and crisis just become commodities. Life stops being something we live, but something we sell and trade. It will breed both corruption & emptiness. 1/ A 🧵on why our politics can't ignore this.

On the real tho, you’d be stupid to not want to attend this. Any student is lucky to get Mehdi in their classroom 🤘🏻 I don’t just say this as a friend and now employee; he spoke to one of my UC classes I think by now years ago, he was fantastic. freebeacon.com/campus/georg...

Most Americans think the system is broken and that Democrats overpromise and underdeliver. So 2028 won’t be a rerun of the 2020 ideas primary. It’ll be about your theory of power: the Senate, gerrymandering, and the media ecosystem we have to govern in. www.waleed-shahid.com/p/the-2028-i...

We’re so grateful for such a great semester with our 10th anniversary class of Fellows! We asked some of the students who worked on their student strategy teams and attended their discussion groups about their experience 💙 thanks to all students who made this semester possible!

We're so thankful for a wonderful Fall 2025 semester with our 10th anniversary Fellows class and all of the amazing students who lead and participate in our programming. We wish everyone a warm and restful Thanksgiving!

Big day at U.S. District Court in D.C. where Sean Dunn, the D.C. Sandwich Guy, is on trial for misdemeanor assault of a federal officer. Border Patrol agent Gregory Lairmore is on the stand narrating surveillance video of the sammie toss. 'Now he’s struck me with the sandwich,' Lairmore says.

Inside Uncommitted: A year after the DNC, I reflect on what it meant for Democrats to bar Palestinian Americans from the convention stage and what the campaign revealed about fractures, power, and the future of the anti-war movement and the Democratic Party. www.waleed-shahid.com/p/inside-unc...

Rep. Clark is right. We start by primarying AIPAC Dems who cover up Israel’s genocide in Gaza. I’m running in FL23 against Jared Moskowitz—who authored the House amendment barring the State Dept from citing Gaza Health Ministry death tolls. Help us win: OliverForCongress.com

Jared Moskowitz paved the way for Trump's DC takeover when he voted with Republicans to attack DC autonomy. South Floridians deserve a Democrat who actually fights for our democracy, not the dictator in the White House. I will fight for DC statehood. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Our daughter Nusayba has officially graduated to long-term follow-up care, marking 5.5 years cancer-free. Georgetown Health Magazine recently featured her story, which captures some of the challenges and hope that defined these years for us. today.advancement.georgetown.edu/health-magaz...

Jared Moskowitz has taken $320k from AIPAC, his top donor. He authored the House amendment censoring Gaza Health Ministry death tolls. He joined the GOP censure of Rep. Tlaib. He told Fox he’s to the right of Trump’s admin on Iran. Help me primary him: secure.actblue.com/donate/ofc_s...

The far right is already attacking me for standing with our immigrant community in protest at Alligator Alcatraz on Day 1 of our FL23 campaign. I will ALWAYS stand with oppressed people against unjust far-right persecution. Donate $23 to help fight back: secure.actblue.com/donate/ofc_s...

I was born on the 4th of July — I’m running for Congress in FL-23. I’ve spent my life working to achieve America’s founding promise. We’re declaring independence from corporate Democrats like Rep. Moskowitz. Happy Independence Day 🇺🇸 Join our campaign: secure.actblue.com/donate/ofc_s...

Trump and Republicans’ Big, Ugly Bill is a monstrosity.
