Our Whistle Stop Bus Tour kicks off TOMORROW, and we're doing something this district hasn't seen in decades. With Will Westmoreland, country artist Bryan Andrews, and down ballot candidates joining us along the way.

Great work to Gov. Mike Kehoe for campaigning with my radio DJ opponent! After the redistricting disaster and getting absolutely steamrolled 80-20 on Amendments 4 & 5, I’m glad Mike has chosen Chris as his next political project. They must really think Chris needs the help!

Things are busy on the campaign trail! I sat down with KCHI in Chillicothe and attended the Kirksville Chamber candidate forum last night. To nobody’s surprise, Chris Stigall was a no-show. I have incredible control over Chris’ schedule these days: if I show up, he makes himself scarce!

Chris Stigall has had plenty of chances to make his case to north Missouri. So far, he hasn't. Tomorrow at 5:30pm, come out to the Kirksville Chamber of Commerce forum, ask your questions, and hear directly from the candidates. I'll be there. Chris, will you?

Thank you to everyone who came out and knocked doors today.

Every conversation matters, and we’re going to keep putting in the miles all the way to Election Day.

I got to see my friend Lauren Reinhold who is running in Kansas' 1st Congressional District on the steps of the U.S. Capitol. We were both there with Take BAC Congress, and it was a great opportunity to connect with fellow candidates running for Congress from around the country.

I hope you can join us on the upcoming North Missouri Whistle Stop Tour!

This is what I’m fighting for, and I want every corner of north Missouri to hear it. Tonight is our end of quarter deadline. Help us put this ad in front of as many people as possible. We’ve got a race to win. Let’s go

Chris Stigall, this seat isn’t yours. I’m out here talking to folks, listening to them, answering their questions, and I’ve accepted every debate invitation I’ve received. If you want to represent these people in Congress, show up and make your case to them. I’m ready to debate. Are you?

A special thank you to Hannibal Indivisible for hosting last night's Town Hall about the upcoming ballot measures at Willow Street Christian Church. I appreciated getting to speak with everyone about what is on the ballot, and it is important to remember 'Yes on 6, the rest are tricks!'

Thank you to UAW Region 4 for your endorsement and for standing with our campaign. I’ll fight for good union jobs, fair wages, and a government where working families have a real voice at the table. I’m proud to have UAW Region 4 with us in this fight.

I caught up with US Congressional candidate for MO3, Bethany Mann while in Troy. Bethany is an awesome candidate who is going to unseat do-nothing Bob Onder. Bethany knows the challenges of running with these changing district maps, but as she says, she is the best 'Mann' for the job!

Here we go again! 33 or 39 counties, I am campaigning in all of north Missouri to win. My opponent thought St. Louis was part of the 6th District, so I imagine he must be in shambles.

Incredible turnout at the Jesse James Day Parade! Always a fantastic morning talking to voters and our wonderful volunteers. Special Thanks to Amy Minich for organizing an incredible group of folks and to the UAW for standing together in solidarity with us.

@joshsmead.bsky.socialSep 17, 2026, 10:32 PM

We need to crack down on corruption. Paying money to someone who pulls strings and gets a favor from a Congressman in my opinion is textbook corruption. Sam Graves is more concerned with helping his friends than helping the people of north Missouri.

Don't worry guys, MAGA radio DJ Chris Stigall thinks gas/diesel prices like these are ok

@joshsmead.bsky.socialSep 16, 2026, 10:10 PM

This morning I had the privilege of speaking to a large gathering at UAW Local 249. I appreciate Rob, Jay, and UAW leadership for giving me the opportunity to speak, and I look forward to being a champion of working class people in Congress.

Happy anniversary to my soulmate Carly! It is hard to believe we have been married 9 years already. Here is to many many more!
