Going to miss my @NRCC 2024 crew, but I’m excited to be joining The Hereford Agency to continue the fight by making ads that win races. Let’s go! politico.com/newsletters/pla…

DC Super Lobbyist Jessica @killinforco loves filming social videos at one of her two mansions. But which one is it? Maryland or CO?
It’s go time. Please make sure to have your voice heard and vote before 7 p.m. tomorrow. If you are not yet registered to vote, it is NOT TOO LATE!! We can have accountable and engaged representation in El Paso County if we do our civic duty and VOTE!

Now let’s play a version with “lobbyist,” “two mansions,” stock trades,” and “Biden aide”
A key part of my morning routine is playing word games before checking the news, so here's a little puzzle made for CO-5 2026!

You wrote two earmarks for suspected fraudsters.
When Minnesota U.S. Attorney Andy Luger went after Feeding Our Future, I asked what he needed to take on the fraud. He said he needed more prosecutors, so I went to the top of the Justice Department and got it done. That’s how I’ll lead as Governor – when there’s a problem, I won’t wait. I’ll act.

And @amyklobuchar requested an earmark for his organization
The organization led by this man, Asad Aliweyd, who led Wednesday’s press conference regarding Somali youth gang violence, is currently paying back $1.1 million to Minnesota’s Edu Dept that was deemed in civil court to be fraudulently obtained in the pandemic meal fraud scheme.

The right endorsement at the right time for Minnesota
I am deeply honored to receive the endorsement of the Police Officers Federation of Minneapolis. As Governor, I’ll ensure that criminals are punished. Strengthening public safety will always be a top priority. I look forward to working with the federation to make Minnesota a better place to live, work and raise a family.

.@amyklobuchar won't debate, but she will show up to a room packed with lobbyists as long as its' behind closed doors. Tells you where her priorities are, and it's not the people of MN
Thank you to the Economic Club of Minnesota for hosting me today to discuss a growth agenda for our state. Minnesota is a state of innovators and we need a government that matches Minnesotans’ drive and ambition. That’s the growth agenda I’ll deliver as Governor. Faster. Better. Bring in and expand businesses and good paying jobs.

I didn't think customer service calls could get worse, then AI came along. Almost impossible to talk to a real person

Bad storm hit DC last night. The neighborhood looks like it was ambushed by a band of Ewoks

The GOAT of soccer coaches
Arsene Wenger was banned for three games and fined £40k after this confrontation with Mike Dean in 2017 👀: 🗣️ Wenger: "You're not honest" 🗣️ Dean: "So you're calling me a cheat?" 🗣️ Wenger: "I maintain what I say; you're not honest. You've done this to us many times before. You're supposed to be professional; you're a disgrace!"

Does @amyklobuchar have a base problem? Because this cast of characters looks like they do a land acknowledgement before walking into a Whole Foods.
Lisa Demuth couldn't name one thing she disagrees with Donald Trump on when asked multiple times. We're putting her own words on the air.

Haaland clearly unaware of what happened to Samson when he too cut off his long hair....
New hair. New manager. New season. Erling Haaland starting fresh after a summer to remember 😎

Last night’s results in MN are best case scenario for Republicans: Demuth and Tafoya are credible candidates with crossover appeal while the fear of Flanagan’s politics will drive up GOP turnout.
Biggest takeaways from the Minnesota primary; - Republicans primary voters really want to win, and picked their two most electable candidates. - People way underestimated Peggy Flanagan as a candidate: 411k votes isn’t just an ICE reaction or a progressive surge.

Deciding to endorse amnesty and not campaign while your opponent’s name is all over screens and in mailboxes was…a choice
Lindell will not concede. Claims there are anomalies in the numbers that his teams will be looking into overnight. @KSTP

Congrats to @LisaDemuthMN on winning the @mngop nomination for Governor. The Hereford Agency was proud to partner with the Restore Sanity PAC to run ads supporting Demuth in the primary
