His eyes were a striking blue, like blue Gatorade, and his cheeks were flushed, like red Gatorade. His demeanor was mysterious, yet refreshing, like yellow Gatorade. And his shirt was the hue of orange Gatorade

Sherrod Brown has either been in elected office or running for office in every campaign cycle for the last 52 years. So, yeah. Sorta makes sense.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but a quarter of Ohio voters think Sherrod Brown is the incumbent Senator source: scholarworks.bgsu.edu/depo/2…

I get that it's very likely you'll end up working for a total psycho if you're a Hill staffer but it's absolutely worth reporting that a major Senate candidate is using gay slurs, the r word, and wishing death from a "botched abortion" on a Planned Parenthood board member
Guys I’ve been yelled at by members of Congress who I don’t even work for

Was trying to determine whether this race is fool’s gold or not but *Roger Marshall* criticizing *ICE* makes me think there’s quite the panic here
When ICE operates in Kansas, it needs to coordinate with our local law enforcement. Our sheriffs and police know these communities better than anyone, and working together keeps officers and residents safe. I’m closely following what’s happening in SW Kansas and have been in direct contact with Secretary Mullin and local law enforcement as ICE executes warrants in order to keep Kansans safe.

When I considered going from journalism to comms/consulting, I met with many flacks to ask for advice, both Ds and Rs. It was helpful. I then went and did that for a couple years! Then I went back to reporting.
