@hartzell.bsky.social on with Hasan, great interview and it's so nice that even if the DNC has written off Missouri since 2016 (despite being a purple state with blue governor and 50% Dems my entire life til then) we still have people willing to fight for us here in MO like these two guys

Lot of hope for @hartzell.bsky.social to bring change to Missouri politics I hope the DNC invests into the state to help him win and I hope groups like @votersoftomorrow.org and @santiagomayer.com give him a look to help him out We need more like him to turn this ship around

President Trump is unwell and unfit to serve as Commander-In-Chief. War is not a game, and working class people are not pawns for the Epstein class. Congressman Mark Alford, do your job. Stop this madness.

Hartzell @hartzell.bsky.social · 05/03/2026
Congressman Mark Alford will gleefully send your sons and daughters to war on behalf of a foreign country, but won’t volunteer his own. Alford’s complicity should be prosecuted just as much as human rights abuser, Kristi Noem.

I will ALWAYS stand alongside our trans community. Period. You will be protected and respected, and when we pass universal healtcare, I will make it my personal mission to guarantee gender affirming care in included. No elected bigot in any state house has the right to tell you who are you.

Simply put, Reverend Jesse Jackson was one of the greatest figures of our time. A Radical rooted in love, liberation, and solidarity. As I run for Congress, I do so standing on the foundation that leaders like Reverend Jackson laid. Rest now, Reverend. You are, forever and always, somebody.

I am angry, disgusted, and mark my words, on DAY 1, as your congressperson, I will introduce Articles of Impeachment against Secretary Pam Bondi, and this entire pedophile-enabling-predator-protecting administration. Shame on you Mark Alford for turning a blind eye to these barbaric atrocities.

Hartzell @hartzell.bsky.social · 10/02/2026
Just so we’re clear. Rep. Mark Alford would rather distract you with this sort of nonsense than call for an investigation into the Epstein files. Far more dangerous and concerning than a performance grounded in unity and love that he definitely did not watch.

The oligarchs will tell us it’s “left vs. right,” but we know the real fight is the rich vs. the rest of us. Our campaign will always be on side or the working class. We’re going to tax billionaires out of existence and empower organized labor, not C-suite execs. We got us. hartzellforcongress.com

🚨 Endorsement Alert 🚨 India Walton (@indiawaltonforbuffalo), former Buffalo mayoral candidate and Democratic nominee, has officially endorsed Hartzell for justice-driven leadership.
Today, Walton proudly announced her support for our campaign and for Hartzell—a leader who understands that real justice doesn’t come from protecting broken systems; it comes from demanding change.

In her endorsement, Walton said, “Power concedes nothing without a demand. Justice is earned by building power. Justice was demanded by the truthtellers who unapologetically refused to stay quiet, refuse to settle, and refuse to be erased. If you’re comfortable, you’re probably not fighting hard enough. That’s why I support Hartzell—because I firmly believe that achieving justice isn’t about protecting broken systems. It’s about choosing people over power and demanding change. What we need less of are polite speeches. We need leaders who are ready to disrupt, organize, and deliver.”

We are honored and proud to have Walton’s support and look forward to organizing alongside a powerful community leader as we continue this fight for justice together.

If your electeds, from city hall to Washington D.C, don’t have the stones to say, Abolish Ice and defund the imperial war machine, they don’t deserve be an elected anymore. In Congress, I will use the fullest extent of my bully pulpit at every level of government.

My great-grandmother, Mama Cilla, always said: “You’ve got to love everybody.” In a nation built on the backs of black and brown folks—our immigrant communities, we the people demand that ICE be dismantled & ABOLISHED. Contact us if you have any questions or concerns, and know that we’ve got us!

This is what happens when a federal agency is allowed to operate like a gang — masked, armed, unaccountable, and terrorizing our neighborhoods. This is not enforcement. This is not normal. This is murder dressed up as “policy.” We demand accountability and prosecution. Abolish ICE.

The plan is to bring a $100 BILLION hyperscale data center campus to the Northland will also bring massive energy use, more strain on the power grid, millions of gallons of water used every day, and possible rate increases for Kansas City residents. We need a data center moratorium, now.

My earlier statement on Trump’s unprovoked and illegal bombing of Venezuela, as reported by @kctv5.com We stand firmly and unequivocally in calling for Trump’s impeachment, and we call on Congress to take immediate action to reinstate the War Powers Act. Bombing our way to peace is not the answer.

This is what tenant power looks like. Collectivism in action. My heart goes out to those throughout MO-04 who have not been taken care of by the landlords. I am running to ensure tenants reclaim their undeniable power. Co-governance means building with people, and organizing gets the goods.
