Completely dumbfounded to learn from this incredible Ringer story that the Nets blog I've been reading for two decades is secretly run by an 81-year-old investigative journalist https://t.co/aKeoACRGOR

@JacobRubashkin Kind of an abnormal to announce right after the election, and even then -- Trump announced his third run on November 15, 2022!

I remind people that this is the funniest thing a politician (that I've covered, at least) has ever done https://t.co/13CqdrJwgU

2013 LePage: "Sen. Jackson claims to be for the people but he's the first one to give it to the people without providing Vaseline ... This man is a bad person. He doesn't only have no brains, he has a black heart."

Those Troy Jackson/Paul LePage flights into DC are going to be something...

Pro tip: AI detection software is bad at detecting AI. There is no software or program that is consistently accurate or good at doing so, according to AI experts.

It is why we need a version of watermarks and other verification layers.

👋 A new chapter in DC starts today, and @CNN will cover every development.

My work focuses on holding politicians to account and reporting sensitively on sexual misconduct in politics.

Staffers, members, consultants: pls reach out! Signal’s in bio, and I treasure source trust

“Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky, the famously anti-Trump GOP lawmaker, told CNN he plans to trigger a vote to impeach Hegseth when Congress returns next week — and multiple GOP sources said they expect it to pass.” https://t.co/04H4ADGWR2

Every single election denier running to govern a swing state lost last night, by the way.

Rogers was one of several canditates in our 2024 report on Republicans running from their past hardline anti-abortion views. He said abortion should be legal “only to prevent the death of the mother,” in 2010 and backed bans repeatedly.

Exclusive @KFILE reporting about the Texas Senate race. An Elon Musk-backed PAC now blanketing the state with robocalls that are using A.I. to attack Talarico on A.I.

NEW: KFILE travelled to PA to interview Congressman Rob Bresnahan about his past as a ghost hunter -- and how it all but vanished from one corner of the internet.

As always, though, we have the receipts, including a viral video...

SCOOP: Democrats have insisted they have nothing to do with the other Dan Sullivan on Alaska's Senate ballot.

But aides with the Mary Peltola campaign and DSCC were part of a monthslong secret plan to recruit him to run -- as well as other candidates.
