Rachel Vindman mocked a Black woman’s clothes and shoes. Alexander Vindman won’t debate her. The polling says Nixon wins the general. The choice is clear.
Thanks for reporting on these assholes and alerting me to donate to Nixon and Cole. The Vinds are clearly grotesque anti muslim bigots and pro perpetual war on terror police state but Rachel seems more like she is a classist, overly sensitive asshole w a stick up her ass than saying anything racist in either instance (not saying she isnt racist, prob is, those just dont seem like clear cut examples). Nixon and Cole are her families political opponent's (and in the case of Cole she was responding to a trash talking/internet parlance not thoughtful commentary on Vindiman's lack of ability to represent a district as a new resident. Her response that taking this pos. limits military families participation in politics is fair-even if said in an overly reactive, assholish and dramatic way that totally misrepresented Cole's intent. Maybe I'm missing more details or context but I also think talking shit about your opponents seems de rigeur now a days and is not necessarily an indication of racism and misogyny (like the BS charges against El Sayed when he was talking about Fetterman being an Ogre and Stevens shitty policies not her appearance but it got misconstrued as that or everytime someone criticizes Israel or Netanyahu people screaming antisemitism. Im grateful for the Vindmans service and whistle blowing on the president, which takes some courage (but also honestly it was his job and the min req so just because others are corrupt failure doesnt mean you get a parade when you do your job) but I wish they would just keep being republicans. Sick of all these republicans running as dems when their ideology and policy proposals are 2000s republican. Fix your own party, dont fuck up ours more.
I don’t like Vindman’s shade of blue. I voted for Angie Nixon last Sunday during our early voting period. Thanks for keeping the spotlight on both of the twins.
Rep. Eugene Vindman held a rare town hall in Virginia this week and ended up treating trans and Black constituents with disrespect. Voters deserve better.
This is the only time I have ever had any wish to live in the state of Florida - solely because I would love to have the opportunity to vote for Angie Nixon.
As far as Rachel Vindman goes, her comments were rude and inappropriate as were her husband’s all the way around. Also, I would rather have an honest politician who is for the people of this country who wears thrift store clothing any day over a designer clothing clad candidate who is in it for himself and/or big money.
#Florida, early voting started yesterday, Aug. 8-Aug. 15. #AngieNixon is one of us. Alex Vindman chooses to dismiss the humanitarian crisis in Gaza & refuses to say it's a genocide. Alex Vindman is yet another millionaire who has forgotten what it's like to be working class.
I don't know if you saw the poll that came out last week from the University of Florida, north est campus, but it had Angie already10 points ahead of Vindeman in the primary and only 8 points behind Moody and in the last 2 weeks Angie has been relentless in her contact with the voters , events and door-knocking all OVER the state and I wouldn't be surprised if she has already overtaken Moody. Viva Angie!!
I live in California but I can support senate candidates in any state. I cannot make any donations this month. I blame Trump's unplanned war on spiking gas prices, and Trump's tariff taxes on my increased grocery bills and inflated prices for everything. Plus Trump is a useless fuckwit.
Ergo Vindman is not a progressive democrat and seems to be a bigot alongside his wife. I will not support any democrat who doesn't recognize our complicity in genocide and ethnic cleansing by Israel.
Democrats should not support Alexander Vindman for senate when we have a much better candidate in Angela Nixon. The special senate primary is August 18th. When will voting begin?
I would like to know where the Vindman's are on ICE and mass deportation and mass detention without due process and persistent abuses of police power by ICE.
How incredibly disappointing to learn this about someone I have/had admired for his testimony against tRump. I might have supported him if I was still in FL based on that past admiration. I had no idea he held these vitriolic views on Muslims and Rachel's comments just floored me, good grief!

I donated based upon your recommendation. As a Working Families Party member, I was also happy to see that she is also endorsed by the WFP!
Hi Jane
I don't know if you saw the poll that came out last week from the University of Florida, north est campus, but it had Angie already10 points ahead of Vindeman in the primary and only 8 points behind Moody and in the last 2 weeks Angie has been relentless in her contact with the voters , events and door-knocking all OVER the state and I wouldn't be surprised if she has already overtaken Moody. Viva Angie!!
YIPPEE 🥳
I love your enthusiam!!
Eugene married a bitch, that's clear and he is either too ignorant, or too afraid, and under confident or both, to express himself.
No matter. Enough of the wrong kind of democrats and Eugene is the wrong kind of Democrat, simple.

Two dems
When is their primary?
Really valuable info here - thanks!
I don't live in FL so haven't been following closely, but those guys have always set off my ick sensors. You help to explain it, so thanks.
