Transportation in DC is a great beat —>

[Heather Caygle @heatherscope]

Big news!! We're hiring a transportation reporter to join the best editorial team in DC! As a former transpo reporter, I can say this is one of the best beats in Washington. More details:

[Dave Clarke @davecclarke]

Great job opening at @PunchbowlNews - we're looking for a transportation reporter. You can reach out to me: [email protected]. Knowledge of transpo beat not a must, knowledge of the Hill is. https://t.co/jUkByIrYMT

One other thing our new Portal lobbying tool makes really easy: Tracking new client registrations in the defense space.

Republicans could be headed for another redistricting miss in Ohio.

@RepMarcyKaptur (D-Ohio), the longest-serving woman in Congress, is locked in a tight rematch with Republican Derek Merrin in a district the GOP made redder last year.

Congressional Reporter @LauraEWeiss16 has the latest on-the-ground reporting from Toledo, Ohio.

REDISTRICTING MISS?

Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-Ohio) is the longest-serving woman in Congress. After statewide redistricting, Republicans are looking to notch a win that's getting harder to reach.

JOHNSON'S MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR

I traveled to Chehalis, Wash., this week to spend some time with @SpeakerJohnson.

I dont think that Johnson has any idea what he will do if Republicans lose the majority.

He refuses to acknowledge that Republicans are in dire risk of a washout.

He said it's "hilarious" that Democrats think they can get 230 seats.

“I want you to record that I am laughing out loud about that,” he said. “That is nonsense.”

At this point, Johnson seems to be living in a world that few others are inhabiting. The speaker says he doesn’t believe any of the polls, even the mountain of data that the NRCC and the Congressional Leadership Fund give him.

[Punchbowl News @PunchbowlNews]

👀 There’s a real possibility that Republicans end up winning just one of Florida’s four newly redrawn districts next month. President Trump won all these new districts by nine points or more in 2024.

But only Democratic Rep. Darren Soto’s central Florida district appears locked up for the GOP right now.

Senior Congressional Reporter @allymutnick has the latest reporting from the Sunshine State.

Wow CLF made a $650K buy in #MO02 for GOP Rep Ann Wagner

This is a Trump +8 seat but has gotten little attention before now. Dem nominee Fred Wellman outraised Wagner last quarter
