The Hollywood Reporter asked me to write a piece what it was like consulting behind-the-scenes for Succession and the show's intersection with real life political mischief. Special thanks to @tylercoates for the opportunity and smart edits! twitter.com/THR/status/169…

“Arson Won Out”: The Democratic Political Consultant on Mapping Out the ‘Succession’ Election Night Episode hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-features…



In 2008, I worked on the Franken campaign. We went into the official recount down in the count. When all legitimate ballots were counted, we won by 312 votes and Al was sworn in as a US Senator.

After what Alex Jones did to the Sandy Hook families, it's poetic justice that @Everytown has joined forces with @TheOnion to write Infowars' next chapter.

Today @TheOnion won its bid to acquire Infowars, the notorious harbinger of disinformation, misinformation, and hate speech helmed by its founder, professional Internet troll, Alex Jones. Alex Jones has profited off the pain of Sandy Hook families, and his brand of hateful…



David is as smart, thoughtful, and sincere as anyone you’ll find in Washington.

New: CNN’s David Chalian has been promoted to Senior Vice President and Washington, DC Bureau Chief.



a brilliant coup by @Everytown

scoop: in an insane twist, The Onion has acquired Infowars in a bankruptcy auction. They’re planning to relaunch the site next year with a new sponsor: Everytown for Gun Safety nytimes.com/2024/11/14/bus…

This is disgusting antisemitism intended to intimidate Jews: Hundreds of posters depicting Jewish faculty members as “wanted” were plastered across the University of Rochester campus on Sunday night cnn.com/2024/11/12/us/…


shouldn’t be controversial that in close races we count all the votes before determining the winner

Across our Commonwealth, close to 7 million people cast their votes in a free and fair election. The American democratic process was born in Pennsylvania and that process will play out.

Interested in working in our brand new Senate office? We’re hiring!  We need conscientious, hardworking folks who are ready to serve the people of Michigan. We have job openings in both Michigan and Washington D.C. that will start after January 3rd, 2025. Take a look at our job…


a lot of voices weighing in on Tuesday's results and what they mean. not surprisingly, Jen is being super smart and thoughtful in how to digest all of this.

.@jrpsaki: "I think there might be an instinct to assign blame to this demographic or that demographic. But despite how hard this moment is and how challenging the years ahead will be, we have to resist that urge. Because that's just not how democracy works."

It’s horrific enough when powerful men exploit their position to abuse and sexually harass women. It’s even worse when those same men intimidate the women they have already harmed. Stand against sexual harassment.

In PA, @GovernorShapiro and House Democrats have focused on creating jobs and opportunity, putting money back in people’s pockets, and investing in education and public safety. Amid all of Tuesday’s results, PA returned a House Democratic majority to keep getting stuff done.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Democrats maintain control of Pennsylvania House of Representatives with a one-seat margin.



it is not a sustainable position for a candidate to argue votes should not be counted. just ask Norm Coleman.

"Remember that during the first Trump term, mass mobilization—including some of the largest peaceful protests in world history—was the battery that charged the resistance. There is power in solidarity, and we can’t win if we don’t get in the fight." time.com/collection/tim…


In November 2008, AP called the Minnesota Senate race for Norm Coleman. Several months later, Al Franken was certified the winner and sworn into the U.S. Senate.

In Montgomery County alone, we still have 6,500 provisionals and approx 2,500 military/overseas or other ballots. That’s 9,000 ballots outstanding in just one county—100K in the whole state makes sense. It’s quite possible PA’s U.S. Senate race could be won w these final votes

PA Dems and @DLCC went into this election with a single seat majority in the PA House and we defended it 💪💪 A big blue bright spot in this dark week.

BREAKING: Democrats just WON the Pennsylvania House! Democrats flipped this chamber blue in 2022, and we’ve fiercely defended our one-seat majority ever since, winning all eight majority-deciding special elections. This win is a major victory for freedom and democracy.
