Alex Vindman, who became a key player along with his twin brother in President Donald Trump’s first impeachment, announced on Tuesday that he is running for the U.S. Senate as a Democrat in Florida.
Vindman, an Army veteran, was serving on the National Security Council in 2019 when the Republican president pressured Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to investigate Joe Biden, then a Democratic candidate. He and his brother, Eugene, a lawyer on the National Security Council, reported their concerns and sparked investigations.
Eugene Vindman now serves as a congressman from Virginia. If Alex Vindman clinches the Democratic nomination, he’ll challenge Republican Sen. Ashley Moody, a former state attorney general who was appointed to fill the seat vacated by Marco Rubio as he became secretary of state.

Vindman was forced out of the National Security Council and later retired from the Army after testifying against Trump during impeachment hearings. He said “this president unleashed a reign of terror and retribution, not just against me and my family but against all of us.”
He urged voters to “stand with me now to put a check on Donald Trump and the corrupt politicians who think your tax dollars are their personal piggybank.”
Vindman becomes the most prominent Democrat in the Florida Senate contest as the party tries to reclaim the Senate majority in this fall’s midterm elections.
Their task in Florida will not be easy. The onetime swing state, which is Trump’s legal residence, has swung decidedly red in recent years. A Democrat has not won a Senate seat there since 2012.
Still, Democrats are hopeful that Vindman’s fundraising prowess and the national political environment — including the backlash against Trump’s immigration crackdown and his lack of focus on the economy — gives them a chance.

Ping-A-Ling!
What a doughy looking putz.
Alex (Poidexter) Vindman has got some nerve running for senate, considering the un-American ways he long term lied about Trump.
Perfect description. Doughy.
Round Boy hasn’t run for anything in years, except the chow line.
Go back to Ukraine Flounder.
Who is funding that fat tu©d?
He and his brother should be fighting on the front lines in Ukraine.
I’m sure that he is going to run on the Traitor ticket. Note how he and his brother have not gone back to the Ukraine to give them their military expertise. The talk the talk but don’t walk the walk.
Why isn’t he overseas fighting in Ukraine? I thought it was important to him?
I can’t find any info about where in Florida Vindman calls home, and how long he has been a resident of the Sunshine State.
“Little Mr.Sunshine”
Him and his brother have been in Fairfax County. The brother got elected in 2024......puke.
When we eventually get to the 2 hoax impeachments topic of the war against Trump, Vindmans hanging out in Gitmo would be a sign of America starting to be Great Again.
Vindman has a punchable face and he’s an arrogant individual.
He also was a key part of trying to take out Trump during the first impeachment farce.
“I hate him.”
“Vindman”... It is almost like all the Florida septic tanks hiccupped at the same time...
I found a reference describing Vindman is a Broward County resident. Recall Broward County, of hanging/dangling/pregnant chad fame in the chaotic 2000 re-re-recount election.
I find Peter Strozk, more likeable than that Vindman Twat, and that certainly ain’t saying much. They both deserve to be smelling of Walmart as greeters.
