Three developments unfolded in Ukraine this week that appear separate yet are closely related: Trump announced a truce that resembles one which we’ve already seen fail, a Russian drone struck a train near the Polish border… open.substack.com/pub/alexande...

Last night Ellie was cheering at her high school football game and I found myself standing at the rail so I could get a better view. Rachel took this picture without me knowing. I love this photo for a lot of reasons, including that spectacular Florida sky. open.substack.com/pub/alexande...

“I don’t know exactly what comes next. But I’ve had to change course before, and wishing the terrain were different doesn’t change the terrain in front of you. So I’m going to take some advice I gave myself years ago. Start over. And keep starting over.” open.substack.com/pub/alexande...

Who would've ever thought that a Jewish refugee would make it to the U.S. Army, to the White House, and to becoming a candidate for the U.S. Senate. Only in America is that possible, and it would not have been possible without you, Florida.

Election Day is tomorrow, and I couldn't be more proud of the grassroots movement we have built across the state of Florida.  Everywhere I turn, one thing is clear: Floridians are ready for the change, and I’m ready to deliver.

Ashley Moody has traded millions in stocks based on insider information only Congress gets. As your Senator, I’ll make that illegal.

Thank you, Rev. Father Jean-Mary and Pastor Jackson, and the congregations of Notre-Dame d’Haiti Catholic Church and New Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church, for opening your doors and welcoming me into this morning’s services. I’m running to fight for a better Florida for all of us.

Career politicians like Ashley Moody have looked the other way while corporations jack up prices and pad their profits.  As Senator, I’ll be laser-focused on cutting your costs, and I’ll always put you first.

I can’t believe my daughter Ellie started 10th grade this week — this pic feels like it was taken just yesterday.  I hope everyone had a great first week back to school. I’m fighting for all of our kids to be able to access a good education and afford to chase their dreams in Florida.

We need to take care of all of America’s seniors, and that starts with making sure the wealthiest pay their fair share.

My dad's union job made our American Dream possible. Today, I’m honored to receive the endorsements of CWA Florida and the American Federation of Government Employees. As Senator, I will always fight to protect workers and strengthen unions.

Millions of Floridians rely on Social Security to survive, yet Ashley Moody voted for a bill to fast-track it towards insolvency. As Senator, I'll fight to protect the program — starting with my plan to ensure the wealthiest pay their fair share.

The reports coming out about conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln are beyond unacceptable. I am keeping the sailors and their families in my thoughts. I'm a 21-year combat veteran. Making sure our service members are treated with dignity and respect is non-negotiable.

We’ve held hundreds of events across the state, talking with supporters and hearing about the type of leader they want in the Senate. Floridians are done with career politicians — they want someone who will actually get things done.

Ran into this kiddo at the polls! We talked about what it means to be a U.S. Senator and his pretty awesome shoes. The shirt doesn’t quite fit, but I’m sure he’ll grow into it.

Health care costs are out of control in Florida, and corrupt career politicians like Ashley Moody have failed to rein them in. Folks shouldn’t have to break the bank to get the care they need — I’m running to ensure health care is affordable for all Floridians.

Alexander S. Vindman @avindman.bsky.social · 13/08/2026
Floridians want a Senator who will deliver for them, but Ashley Moody only delivers for special interests. She approved the transfer of $10 million away from a children’s Medicaid fund, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

My dad is the reason I am able to be here today, running to represent the state we both call home. Today, I joined him to cast our ballots.

My dad brought us here to pursue the American Dream. Now, it’s getting further and further out of reach for too many young people. I’m running to cut costs, crush corruption, and bring back opportunities for all Floridians.

Ashley Moody’s office authorized the transfer of funds away from Medicaid for kids in Florida. As a nurse, Gus has seen firsthand what happens when children can’t access the health care they need.

As we learn more about the earthquake that rocked Colombia this morning, my heart is with people close to those we have already lost. I will be keeping the people of Colombia and their loved ones living in Florida in my thoughts as they face this devastating tragedy.

My thoughts are with the people of Puerto Rico who have gone days rationing water, and the Floridians who are worried about loved ones on the island. As Senator, I’ll fight for the necessary investments to ensure Puerto Rico has reliable access to water and other resources.

Early voting is now open across the state! I’m not a career politician — in fact, I’m the only candidate in this race who has never run for office before. If you want a new voice who’s ready to disrupt the status quo, I’m your guy. I’d be honored to be that voice in the Senate.

The hard-working people of Florida believe in my vision for an affordable future.  That’s why the average donation to my campaign is less than $40 — Floridians are chipping in to show their support however they can, and I couldn’t be more grateful.

More than a million Puerto Ricans have made Florida their home. I visited San Juan this week to meet with veterans who bravely served our country and hear about the issues they and their families are facing.

I was in a convoy in Fallujah when an IED exploded directly into my Humvee. I was hit with shrapnel in the leg and shoulder, shrapnel I still carry with me to this day. I earned a Purple Heart that day. But more importantly, I learned a lot about service and sacrifice.

Ashley Moody is absent and people are starting to notice. Her office signed off on the transfer of $10 million away from children’s health care. That money ended up funding political campaigns. Floridians deserve answers.

Small businesses like Fishweir Brewing Company in Jacksonville are struggling because of tariffs imposed by this administration. As your Senator, I’ll fight to put money back in the pockets of Floridians, and for policies that support our small businesses.

I’m not taking a dime of corporate PAC money.  Meanwhile, Ashley Moody is being bankrolled by the utility companies jacking up your prices. One of us is fighting for you, and the other is bowing down to billionaires.
