NEW EXCLUSIVE: Third time the charm? Another poll shows Democratic US Senate candidate up in Texas WASHINGTON — The third poll in a row shows Democratic state Rep. James Talarico ahead of Republican Attorney General Attorney General Ken Paxton in Texas’ U.S. Senate race. “What do you make of all these polls coming out showing Paxton down?” I asked outgoing Sen. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) of the latest Texas Southern University poll that has Talarico up by two points. “Umm, well, I suspected that would be the case,” Cornyn — who lost the GOP primary to Paxton — replied. “But we made our case and didn’t prevail.” “Do Democrats have a chance?” I pressed. “Yes,” Cornyn replied. “Really?” “Yeah,” Cornyn said. “Are you going to be helping Paxton at all?” I asked as Cornyn boarded an elevator in the Capitol’s basement. “Ummm,” Cornyn said as the elevator doors shut. “I wasn’t thinking of it.” Full (unpaywalled) transcript at AskaPol politics on Substack.

This week is my 20th anniversary covering Washington politics. It’s also the first week I haven’t been allowed in the US Capitol in 2 decades because the nation’s TV networks are angry I credentialed Scott MacFarlane after he left CBS & before he signed with MeidasTouch.

I’m publicly asking Nathaniel Reed to review my shuttered bureau live on CSPAN. He’s cost us tens of thousands now. He’s using his perch as RTCA Capitol Hill Chair to sabotage my news operation. Why? Cause I collaborated with Scott MacFarlane & Migrant Insider (ie, MeidasTouch)

NEWS: This week I officially asked Speaker Mike Johnson, US Senate Leaders and the 17 members of the Senate Rules Committee to investigate RTCA Capitol Hill -- the TV networks who control press access to the Capitol led by Nathaniel Reed Allison Pecorin - Suspending entire LCB team without reporting a single violation and without warning. - Falsifying Congressional Directory. - Credentialing CNN anchors as NBC (see Kasie Hunt), CBS credentialed ABC, etc. - Credentialing press secretaries, a talent agent, marketers, etc. (see doc B) - Seemingly, taking money from corporate entities not eligible for RTCA membership, like Disney, Warner Bros & Artemis Strategies. (see doc C) - Some 15 people credentialed LCB aren’t listed in any Congressional Directory. - What happened to the $600 we paid for those credentials? (see doc D) - Double standards for small and independent journalists. - Onerous reporting restrictions for independent journalists but not the Networks. - Refusing — for 5 years — to address Gallery safety concerns raised. (see doc E) - In 2025, LCB reported RTCA to Reporters Committee for Freedom of Press. Below find a copy of each letter I sent to congressional leaders.

“Let the kids eat again, @reedreports. Please.” We’re not accused of a single violation by the Radio-TV Correspondents’ Association, yet my Capitol bureau, The LCB, has been shuttered since May 1. So far, it’s cost upwards of $20,000.
