Have solidarity this Labor Day!
![FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: [9/1/2025] Email: campaign@JeramyOlmack.com Labor Day Statement from Jeramy Olmack [Arlington, VA] In 2025, we are watching in real time the regression of public policy. The regime is dismantling all the progress we have achieved. Our institutions are being undermined. Our citizens are being misrepresented. Our world is on fire. Today is not a celebration of the Labor Movement but a day to examine and reflect on how we got here. Regulations were created because corporations and leaders continuously prove that they do not give any regard to life. From the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory to the Googleplex, we all are workers who must fight for our rights. The monarchs, oligarchs and their suits have been pulling the strings of our day to day for eons.

Have solidarity this Labor Day!
That is insane and wholly unnecessary. No fire house should be sending the any crew member on grocery trips in the most expensive and largest vehicles they have. I will be investigating and raising this concern. Thank you for bringing this to my attention!
Wait theyāre taking the truck to get lunch at HT? What??
I hear you! The resources being used does seem excessive for routine calls. If elected I will take a vested interest in ensuring the right resources are allocated for routine calls!
Nope! š Enter through the flower shop (during normal business hours) to proceed to the Black Heritage Museum of Arlington! I found this out myself a few weeks back when I was trying to ask the flower shop āhow to get into the museum?ā! I never thought to go through the flower shop!
So I asked about it and itās listed that way because thatās when then Curator is typically there. Otherwise you enter through the flower shop during regular business hours.
Our Capital is being occupied by the heavily armed US National Guard! The Regime is using the federal police force to kidnap our neighbors! Our Electeds keep capitulating and compromising on every issue! OFC āCrimeā is down in DC- the only ones committing crimes in DC are our politicians.
P.S.- Given the publisher of the original article, we should also assume that snoops quote was taken out of context to create malicious clickbait.
Iāll endorse this message. Iāll agree that Snoop of all people should not have been so ignorant, we should accept his apology at face value and assume the apology was made in good faith. We must do better and that includes picking up those that stumble.
1000x this!
You are literally funded by the same organizations that fund the Regime. Fuck you and fuck your AIPAC buddies. Try representing your constituents for once instead of posting memes. INSTEAD OF SITTING ON YOUR HANDS, YOU HAVE THE POWER TO DO SOMETHING, DO MORE!
Have you said the words "Ranked Choice Voting" or "Universal Basic Income" today?
hello shark, iāve got some debt to offer you for purchase
Thank you for all of the work! I appreciate that youāre willing to speak up and share your experiences! We face some fucking horrible news every waking moment and it can get overwhelming, it is frustrating. Keep taking it day by day and we will persist!
Mark, donāt come for Martha, you only spent $11,000,000 ($11M) for the factory. You and your buddies spent 38 times more to build the Mavericks a stadium. You have a networth of over $6,000,000,000 ($6B) STOP trying to push vanity projects like theyāre saving the planet and instead spread the wealth
Remember when Democrats told all of us to let the courts handle everything? Yeah that was a load of bullshit said to stall because they have no desire to use the power they hold.
Remember kids itās totally normal for a Despot.. I mean World Leader to have an empty calendar during a major holiday weekend.
Iām excited to announce that starting Wednesday I will be holding Community Conversations at various parks around Arlington! Check out the image for more information!

Got my campaign signs! Rank me this November!
This is why no one actually trusts you Mark. Youāre too worried about the image of being liberal that you miss actually being progressive. You have the money to address the big picture but instead youāre posting on Bluesky simping for admiration.
You are 67 years old with an estimated $6,000,000,000 ($6B) making you the 620th richest person. Can you not do something better with your time? You could be bankrolling progressive campaigns. YOU HAVE THE MONEY TO SUPPORT THOSE PUSHING THE CHANGE YOU ARE POSTING ABOUT! HELP US OR SHUT UP.

Reader: THEY FIXED IT Flexposts on WV NE now 8-10" further out, lane now safe & usable To Mike Goodno & @ddotdc.bsky.social: At this moment I can think of nothing more moving & inspiring than city gov simply going abt everyday labor of making us actually safer in real life. Thank you. #bikedc
fuck it, maybe we should start actually doing leftist purity testing š¹ BECOME INSUFFERABLE š¹
Fuck Jeff Bezos! (Can you spot me in this video?)
Find us starting at 4 PM at Dupont Circle itself, on the south side of the circle.
A friendās brother is facing some legal trouble- if you got $5 to spare please send it their way! www.gofundme.com/f/stand-with...
Back to school should never mean back to school shootings. This is the devastating reality of Americaās gun violence crisisāand it will not end until lawmakers take meaningful action. Text READY to 644-33 to join us in demanding they do just that.
We can not allow more children to be killed by lunatics with an assault weapon. It is time to stop playing to peopleās need to feel safe and start making sure people are safe from being killed by a gun.
Over 300 million people in our country of 330 millions peopleā¦ you mean over 90% of the whole population?!?!
@jeramyolmack.com If elected. Will you fight for more dog poo dispensers?
Yes! I fully support and will push for a cohesive public amenity system consisting of more dog poo dispensers, trashcans, and benches!
Welcome!
Must be nice to have no oligarchs on your supreme court.
Member* in Congress- this is not partisan when Democrats in Congress are also sitting on their hands claiming they donāt hold any power.
The government getting 10% of Intel isn't socialism, that's just capitalist business as usual. Socialism would be if the WORKERS of Intel owned the company. This has been a Public Service Announcement, funded by socialism.
Why am I not surprised? Arlingtonās construction monopoly laying in bed with the regime is just the icing on Trumps Birthday Cake This is why not all business is good business for Arlington.
Who cares if itās āhardā- they were elected to do the hard work. They need to start doing something instead of throwing up hands every time they want to make a show that they donāt have the power to do anything.
Getting money out of politics is only half the battle- we must fight to make sure our representative democracy is actually proportionally representative of its population. Itās time to uncap the house! Itās time we have 1 house member for every 180,000-215,000 people!

Uncap the House NOW!!!
This part
Beyond comprehension? No itās isolationist rhetoric coming from the same people who defend billionaires- coming from the same people who are supposed to regulate everything. This is what evil looks like.
AI canāt even have a conversation with people but they want us to turn to their AI Creative Slop? Maybe itās the tech industry who want the AI cake and eat it too.
And this is why we are in this mess- Dems refuse to acknowledge they are the ones only giving us two choices because if they were to acknowledge the other choices- they would have to accept less power. Dems donāt represent anyone in their thinly veiled attempt to control everyone.
Of course! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! I know it was a bit long-winded but itās a very complex topic that must be evaluated within its context.
To āBlueā-sky: Virginia School Boards are actually resisting the fascist regime and protecting transgender and nonbinary students. Governor Newsom of California is posting tweets and throwing transgender and nonbinary people under the bus. Find the good before choosing evil.
Youāre telling me this guy is not a more desirable guy to promote than Gavin Newsom
I didnāt speak at the @apsvaschoolbd.bsky.social today but I did send them a public statement of support! Fuck the separate but equal arguments that the Lieutenant Governor tried to make!
![APS Board Statement 8/21/25 Send the comment to school.board@apsva.us [Arlington, VA] Good Evening, Esteemed School Board Members. My name is Jeramy Olmack, They Them pronouns, and Iām speaking in support of APSā renewed support of the policies concerning transgender and non-binary students. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to our school board for standing up against the Regime's blatant abuse of power. Trump and his traitorous cronies want to intimidate our communities and your resolve, and the resolve of the whole Northern Virginia School Board Coalition is absolutely inspiring! Tonight, the Lieutenant Governor, using the rights and platform she gained from our ancestors, is here to admonish you for standing firm with your commitment to the children of our community. The Lieutenant Governor is not only wrong to use hate to further her ambitions, but she stands here despite everything that has allowed her this platform in the first place. She stands against all the values she represents and is traitorously colluding with an authoritarian regime to harm our community. I am not here to campaign, but know if elected to the county board, you will have a staunch ally in this fight against harm, and I will work with this school board and the whole coalition to stand firm in the commitment to providing a safe environment for all, not just those who fit the mold. Our students deserve to be talked about like people, not pawns, and our queer students shouldn't be thrown under the bus to appease dictators. I am excited that this school board is maintaining its student-first approach and will be watching closely to make sure it continues. Thank you for your support, and hope you have a great school year!

A representative democracy should be just that! Representative!
There is a large category of letters from Union soldiers who first encountered slavery aristocracy that could easily be summed up as āwe should kill all these fuckersā
This part!
RE: Newsom- Heās the governor of California, if he canāt go toe to toe with the dictator of the United States then he wouldnāt be governor of California. That doesnāt mean he should become the next dictator just because heās (now) flexing powers every elected should be using.
Say this a bit LOUDER FOR THOSE IN THE BACK!
So the moment someone doesnāt agree with you over idolizing Newsom- weāre fraud accounts run by Russian bots? š¤¦ FFS and Dems wonder why some voters donāt feel like participating in this insanity.
Ignoring identity ignores the harm being done to people because of their identity- Queer, Black, Native, Women, Children, Disabled- We all have felt harm and continue to do so because instead of acknowledging the harm being done. Stop trying to put a one size āfitsā all band-aid over bullet wounds.
šš»šš»šš»
JFC š« š¤¦ and Democrats wonder why they donāt win elections. Aside from the election manipulation- Democrats just want to tell us who to vote for instead of listen to our screams. Wasnāt Newsom just applauded for emulating the Turds Posts? Oh well, folks this is why political parties are a cult.
THE QUEERS WILL START THROWING BRICKS IF YOU DONāT STOP THROWING TRANSGENDERED PEOPLE UNDER THE BUS! ALIENATE THE QUEER COMMUNITY AT YOUR OWN PERIL!

You better not, Gavin is still a scumbag that hates homeless and trans people. He would throw us under the bus to fascism for appeasementā¦ Maybe do some research before blindly following a candidate: Donāt play the maga game and let your brain rot just like them.
WE ALREADY DID THAT WITH BIDEN! NOW 5 YEARS LATER WE ARE NOW DEALING WITH FULL BLOWN FASCISM. INSTEAD OF TELLING US TO PLUG OUR NOSES, NOMINATE A CANDIDATE THAT IS ACTUALLY A GOOD PERSON. OR IS THAT JUST TOO HARD FOR YOU?

I agree but the EC is only a bruise showing the internal bleeding. The EC argument misses the bigger picture- so long as we are misrepresented by Congress, every single other system of governance will misrepresent us. We need to attack the root of the problem, not react to only part of the problem.
Itās time to catch up and mount our defenses. That means electing people and not a party. That means dismantling their grip on our institutions. That means building sustainable infrastructure to resist from. 9/9
The progressive democratic movement is up against ancient systems of oppression that have gained control over the centuries. These systems think democracy and liberation is something they believe they can crush if they just keep trying. They have been waging war against us since the beginning. 8/9
We are in this mess because people are afraid to let go of power to transform society into something better for all people and itās kinda despairing. Iām genuinely sad that I may not live to witness true democracy but we also should not give up and let these corrupted people win. 7/9
Thatās not to say that white cis people wouldnāt still get elected but repealing PAA29 would greatly increase the opportunity for non white cis communities to be represented. It would allow debates to be a debate instead of theatre to stall and keep stalling until itās all destroyed. 6/9
The people making these arguments are white men upset they loosing their right to oppress and control others. The reason we only have a handful of non white cis males in our congress is because those groups have been systematically excluded from our congressional delegation through the PAA29 5/9
A representative democracy of the people should do just that! REPRESENT OUR PEOPLE! If people arenāt agreeing then thatās for the voters to decide not the bureaucrats we elected. Also letās not forget to mention the racist, sexist, and xenophobic reasons these arguments stemmed from! 4/ 9
Representation does not need streamlined since itās only streamlined for authoritarian reasons. Any argument about how too many representatives creates too much bureaucracy or too many districts on top of each other misses the entire point. 3/9
There are many misguided arguments as to why PAA29 is āgoodā but there is no good reason why to limit representative democracy except to limit it. People need representatives and a government they can touch, representatives and government should serve people not the party or industry. 2/9
Itās why the House of Representatives is stuck at 435 members. According to the constitution, & the point of the census, US House seats are supposed to be apportioned to a proportional ratio to the electorate but the PAA29 put a cap on the US House. Check out @uncapthehouse.bsky.social 1/9
Itās not really funny how āthe victims are lyingā is the excuse for genocide but the moment we tell you western leaders are lying to you, itās āno, I āelectedā them, they could never lie to meā
Last night a lawmaker in Texas was locked into a room because she refused to sign agree to the GOPās demands. She slept there.
The Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929 is the biggest piece of legislation to disenfranchise US citizens of their representative rights.
ICE and MPD have set up a checkpoint at 17 and Benning NE, by the Ross.
Letās also not forget the TRILLIONS transferred to the wealthy during COVID. 1% of the global population holds over 40% of the globes wealthā¦ www.oxfam.org/en/press-rel...
āBy the people*ā with moneyā¦ thatās how itās always worked and you seem to be forgetting that democracy is new while autocracy is ancient. When those with money keep telling us these are youāre two options now choose, maybe just maybe the party is not āby the peopleā
Wow thatās oppressive as fuck and just wrong. š we can and should have more than 2 people to choose from in our elections. Anything less is direct oppression from the highest echelons of society. Seriously look beyond yourself.
Thank you! šš» This is what Iāve been saying for years! We need to be electing people not a party ideology. Like we all plugged our nose to vote for Biden & the Democrats to stop this mess and instead they choose to run the country on a weak infrastructure bill and enable genocide.

šÆšÆšÆ Well said, Chris. By espousing #VoteBlueNoMatterWho, Dems confirm they'll accept/embrace any crappy Dem Pol No Matter What. No matter how Crappy Dem Pol policies are, Dem voters will Blindly Vote Blue No Matter Who. Dems are such Loyal True Blue Soldiers. #DemExit #Sheep #BlindLoyalty
Shouting this from the rooftops!
I thought this was AIā¦ until it wasnātā¦ this mans created a high quality transit inspired cat house š« DC barely even has a quality transit system š
Boo! No Ads on Bsky! #noadsonBsky
Booo! No ads on Bsky! #noadsonBsky
Shit is still fucked, and weāre still here for you. š We have some updates on regional hotlines: the Virginia hotline is no longer operational but donāt worry if you see ICE or know someone who is detained, you can call the MSMA or @casaforall.bsky.socialās hotlines instead. No one fights alone! šŖš½
Letās stop āvoting party no matter whoā and start critically thinking about who we are actually voting for. People matter- Party Rhetoric does not.
Democracy is not freedom, it is a tool, and its virtue depends on who wields it. It can defend or destroy, uplift or oppress; it carries no guarantee of liberty or equality. It is up to us not only to uphold a just democracy, but to fight for it and defend it against corruption and injustice.
Bike protest this Saturday (August 16th). Come ride for your Rights!!! #savedemocracy #ride4rights #washingtondc #cycling
At the fair!
Rank me and DC this November!
80 yearsā¦ thatās all itās been since World War Two and people want to act like it was centuries agoā¦ it should be no wonder why fascists feel emboldenedā¦ we defeated them YESTERDAY!
The issue here isnāt housingā¦ itās apportionment or more like the lack there of. The only solution to reapportionment is to repeal the permanent apportionment act of 1929 not more housing in āblueā states.
