Heinrich isn't just praising Platner on Twitter. He also sent him a $5,000 check via his "Lobo PAC" leadership PAC in mid-September, per Platner's FEC filing just now.

I'm not trying to pick on him, it's just sorta wild to go from winning the most expensive House primary in American history to putting up like, pre-retirement numbers for 3 quarters in a row.

Police allowed people into the Capitol on January 6. 300 people were permitted to enter through the Upper West Terrace doors. Watch the whole way as it gets better and better. I'm the guy with the US flag bandana that the officer opens the door for at 1:02. Follow me for more

Rep. George Latimer continues to be a rather lackluster fundraiser, bringing in $54,190 in Q3. He raised $94,955 in Q2 and $72,456 in Q1. That's just over $220,000 for the whole year.

Here's an interesting FEC spot: Tom Daschle, the Senate Democratic Leader from 1995-2005, gave $1,000 to Sen. Susan Collins in September.

Musk indicated on July 1 that he would donate to Rep. Thomas Massie, who later said he was "extremely thankful to have Elon Musk's financial assistance." Massie's campaign filed its Q3 FEC report this morning, which covers July - Sept. There's no Musk contribution in there.

Rep. Rob Bresnahan's (R-PA) stock trading habits look a lot different these days, following public scrutiny. He hasn't made an individual stock trade since June, per his filing. Today, he filed a PTR showing ETF purchases, which aren't controversial.

(Not my opinion, just my read on the situation) Sorta reminds me of George Latimer. The whole point of him running was to kick Jamaal Bowman out of office — he pretty directly told me that he didn't have major ambitions for his own tenure in office. https://t.co/pB8uEveCW6

I think the theory of the case for Mills is that her #1 task is to just beat Collins, who’s historically been really hard to beat. Once that’s accomplished, you can run whoever else in 6 years and it won’t be as hard.
