BREAKING: I asked Speaker Mike Johnson if he’ll try to repeal the CHIPS Act if Trump wins and they have control of Congress. “I expect that we probably will.” Brandon Williams responds: “I will remind him night and day how important the CHIPS Act is.” #NY22 CitrusTV News 🚨

WATCH: I asked Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick why Trump should get credit for the jobs coming to CNY when he opposed the CHIPS Act. Chuck Schumer interjected: “We’re not looking for one side or the other.” Lutnick: “We took a good start, and made it great working together.”

“If you can’t admire Joe Biden as a person, there’s probably— you’ve got a problem. You need to do some self-evaluation ‘cause what’s not to like? … He’s as good a man as God ever created.” — Lindsey Graham (2015)

EXCLUSIVE: I followed up 1-on-1 with Chuck Schumer after my exchange with Howard Lutnick on the CHIPS Act. He said he stepped in because “today’s a day for bipartisanship.” Minutes later, Lutnick said the bill Schumer wrote was full of “DEI crap” and “we cut out the bullsh*t.”

EXCLUSIVE: I asked Hunter Biden if there should be reforms to the presidential pardon system. “I’m completely biased as it relates to what my dad did for me,” he said, adding “I don’t think that the founders ever imagined Donald Trump.” MeidasTouch

This is what Mallory McMorrow told Scott MacFarlane just 9 days ago about her future in the race and the other two candidates running for Senate in MI:

Question from Scott MacFarlane: “You hear these concerns in your party that you’re the least electable in a general election. Why do people say that?” Dr. Dr. Abdul El-Sayed (D-MI): “I think my party doesn’t really know what electability is any more.” MeidasTouch

ICYMI: Here’s why I asked the question. Donald Trump told Joe Rogan last week “that CHIPS deal is so bad.”

At the University of Michigan, former Syracuse University Chancellor Kent Syverud received an honorary degree and delivered pretaped remarks. “I’ve spent the past two weeks fighting a ferocious brain tumor and brain cancer.”

Starting today, I’m hosting a new show for MeidasTouch! Talking about the news and politics on the internet is hardly new for me. In fact, this week marks nine years since I started my own YouTube channel when I was just 13 years old. Here’s what’s next:

ONE-ON-ONE: Hunter Biden tells me he’s “disappointed in much of the Democratic Party and the leadership in Congress and the United States Senate.” Plus, he says he’s keeping an eye on Gavin Newsom, Andy Beshear, and Josh Shapiro as possible contenders in 2028. MeidasTouch

In August of 2022, Brandon Williams criticized the CHIPS Act as “corporate welfare.” Two months later, the Micron project was announced. #NY22 Here’s more context from my report tonight on CitrusTV News:

“Why can’t you say that the president was wrong?” My question to Former Federal Transit Admn Administrator Marc Molinaro on Donald J. Trump’s use of the r-word. (Marc and I both have a special connection to those with disabilities so I found this exchange to be telling…)

My CNN debut! (Kind of.) Thanks for the kind words, Kaitlan Collins. h/t @jeffstorobinsky

BREAKING: Donald J. Trump endorses Bruce Blakeman Bruce Blakeman just 24 hours after Elise Stefanik ended her run for governor. Kathy Hochul’s spox. Sarafina Chitika reacts to the news. Plus, Blakeman tells WKTV how he plans to boost his name ID here in Upstate New York.

A few kind words for KeithatSU at Newhouse School convocation:

On the Trump administration: “I don’t believe, as a matter of principle and policy, that institutions of higher education should insert themselves institutionally in political debate.” This exchange with Syracuse University Chancellor-elect Mike Haynie is worth your time…

When I asked Blake for the North Country, the Democrat running to represent #NY21, about comments he made in a 2013 interview about local workers in the North Country, a consultant for his campaign interrupted the interview. Here’s my exchange with the man challenging Elise Stefanik on WKTV:

WATCH: I asked Pete Buttigieg about recent moves by Syracuse University to conform to the Trump administration, including the decision to close their Office of Diversity and Inclusion. It’s now a unit for “People and Culture.” “There is a slippery slope here,” he said. MeidasTouch
