SCOOP: GOP TN congressional candidate Brent Taylor bashes China on the campaign trail – but he’s now delivering a mea culpa. He’s selling stock in two companies the Pentagon said were “Chinese military companies” after I asked him about his stakes in them. politico.com/newsletters/pl…

Engagement
18 posts held, back to 28 March 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 18 posts for this entry, the most recent from 25 July 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
Recent posts
NEW: Trump called his former CISA Director Chris Krebs “a significant bad-faith actor” in his executive action targeting him last year. But Trump initially couldn’t even remember the name of Krebs when plotting the revenge, per the new Haberman/Swan book. politico.com/newsletters/pl…
SCOOP: President Trump privately called Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick a “pussy” after Lutnick pushed back on Trump’s obsession with tariffs at the height of the “Liberation Day” chaos, per the upcoming Maggie Haberman/Jonathan Swan book I obtained. politico.com/newsletters/pl…
Fun nugget: When Jerome Powell walks around the Fed, he often stops at the portrait of fmr. Fed Chair Arthur Burns to say that he sees him as a cautionary tale since he gave in to Nixon's pressure to keep rates low, 2 ppl familiar w/ the comments told me. https://t.co/OV06Zr1hVO
SCOOP: Some members of DC’s elite Metropolitan Club have a message for acting Attorney General Todd Blanche: We don’t want you. At least six have written to its board to oppose his bid to join the club, saying he’s too polarizing and has politicized DOJ. https://t.co/NutaCIMx67
“He is targeting a lot of people, and the Justice Department is targeting a lot of the members of the club, like judges, nonprofit organizations and universities,” said one. Another said his support of Trump’s use of the DOJ to go after his opponents was “pretty startling.”
NEW: Trump COS Susie Wiles has tightened control over Cabinet officials’ foreign travel, directing them to limit trips abroad and instead focus on promoting the administration’s agenda domestically ahead of a challenging midterm cycle. (W/ @SophiaCai99)https://t.co/shFp6qRNhU
NEWS: Jeff Miller’s Miller Strategies deregistered as a lobbyist for AI energy company Fermi America 2 weeks after Fermi’s then-CEO Toby Neugabauer got in a spat with Commerce Sec’y Howard Lutnick that @zcolman and I recently revealed. (W/ @jacob_wendler) politico.com/newsletters/po…
SCOOP: Tucker Carlson, the close ally (and sometimes critic) of Trump, took his anti-war message to an elite Washington audience on Friday: the Metropolitan Club, whose selective ranks include top lobbyists, ambassadors and business leaders. politico.com/newsletters/pl…
SCOOP: Manny Rutinel, who’s running a progressive populist congressional campaign in Colorado and has said that “billionaires” are not “powering this campaign,” has received a number of donations from billionaires and their relatives, per FEC records. politico.com/newsletters/po…
In a texted statement, Dale said: “It was the financially responsible thing to do considering the Center will be shutting down shortly. I’m looking forward to attending Chicago next week and even more excited about the re-opening in a couple of years! It’s going to be amazing!”
SCOOP: Lisa Dale, the Kennedy Center’s embattled head of development, was laid off on Thursday, three people familiar with the matter told me. The center laid off a number of staffers yesterday as it prepares to shut down for a planned two-year renovation. politico.com/newsletters/we…
Showing the 12 most recent of 18 posts we hold for @dlippman. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Mentions
Named by 1 registered channel — every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched — that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting today’s namer to yesterday’s owner would misattribute it.
Named by
Channels on the register whose posts name this channel's handle.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
Handles this channel named that no longer answer
- Dead references

- Evidenced gone

@dlippman named 3 handles that resolve to nothing today. That is a fact about the reference, not necessarily a fact about the handle’s history — see the two groups below.
Most of these may never have existed as a live channel at all. A handle a channel names can be a typo, an aspirational name nobody registered, or a channel that was already gone before this one ever mentioned it. Unless a row below is marked evidenced, all we know is that it references a handle that is not a live channel today — not that anything “died”. How this is measured.
Never seen alive
References a handle that is not a live channel — we have no record it ever was one.
