We must remain fiercely independent

A note of appreciation as we enter a new phase of our work.   John,   You are incredible. From me and my team, please accept our profoundest gratitude.   We work hard to fulfill a unique and necessary role in our political system — holding some of Americ…

Welcome to our lawsuit, Fox News

Today, we are taking action against Fox News, Sean Hannity, and others for enabling Boebert’s defamation.   John,   You are one of the first people to hear: this morning, American Muckrakers took legal action to add Fox News and other media outlets and s…

Buckle up

Things are about to get wild…   John,   A wholly unscrupulous person like Lauren Boebert can’t be relied on for much, but there’s one thing you can absolutely take to the bank: when she feels threatened, she will fight like hell to cling to power and infl…

“Do you like apples???”

We brought receipts. How do you like THEM apples?!   John,   Last year we released some information about Lauren Boebert’s alleged use of illegal drugs — and at the time, Boebert and her swarm of MAGA trolls readily accused us of not providing enough supp…

We’ve requested an investigation of Lauren Boebert

Her conduct at Buell Theatre may have violated federal law.   John,   This is a fast-developing story, so I need to be quick: American Muckrakers has sent a letter to Cole Finegan, United States Attorney for the District of Colorado, officially requesting…

Boebert gets kicked out of ‘Beetlejuice’ in Denver

This is literally impossible to make up.   John,   Once in my early thirties, during a lull in my career and at a moment of creative inspiration, I attempted to pen a piece of fiction, largely for my own entertainment and definitely not to write the Grea…

Mark Robinson is arrogant, weak, and undemocratic

Politicians should respect the voters enough to simply show up.   John,   This evening, GOP candidates for Governor of North Carolina will gather to discuss and debate their differing approaches to leadership in Wake County, the state’s most populous cou…

Lauren Boebert is hurting financially

Our work holding her accountable is having an impact.   John,   Lauren Boebert has been feeling the heat lately. But don’t take it from me — this is the message coming directly from her campaign, and the gaggle of goofballs and treasonous nutjobs in her …

Opposition research

We release facts not hyperbole because it is stuff that voters care about.   John,   If you’ve ever wondered about one of the less-publicized, sometimes not-so-glamorous, but still essential parts of American politics — opposition research — then you are…

We won’t get another chance

Urgently asking for your help as we kick into high gear to take on Boebert next month.   John,   I will keep this brief and be as plain as possible: the first test of our defamation case against Boebert is set for mid-September, and we need to go into thi…

Y’all are fired up!

The fervor we all share in our desire to see Boebert exit stage-left is intense.   John,   Last week we asked for support to help fund voter outreach and investigate more tips about Lauren Boebert’s shady past, and wow — let’s just say y’all are eager to …

Muckrakers vs. Boebert: lawsuit update

Boebert’s disingenuous reply to our defamation suit is full of falsehoods.   John,   This week, Lauren Boebert’s legal team finally submitted their response to our defamation lawsuit filed in Colorado, and it’s exactly what you’d expect from Boebert: full…

Where things stand re: Boebert

It’s a no-brainer: World’s Dumbest Politician

You can’t shoot your way out of this one, Lauren

Lying under oath can’t be fixed with guns or grenade launchers.   John,   Lauren Boebert loves her guns.   She regularly cosplays her under-18 minor children with assault rifle and handgun paraphernalia, poses the kids holding AR-15 semiautomatic weapons …

This guy is dangerous and must be stopped

This is bad news for Lauren...

Extreme right pumping $50m to save Boebert

Boebert’s election

Boebert Weaker than Ever: Doubling down on Billboards against her

Taking on Fox News AND Boebert

Something needs to be done, or bullies will always get their way.   John,   You may know that Fox News is, again, facing some very serious legal headwinds due to their careless disregard for truth, honesty, and facts. The Dominion Voting Systems case was …

Frisch stays clean while we fight in the muck

Fox’s lawyers say we are “harassing” them

Liars gonna lie (but now there are consequences)

Always quick to lie when faced with an accusation, Boebert initially attempted to explain away her missed debt ceiling vote saying that she didn’t vote as a protest because of her disdain for the debt ceiling bill. However, we now know this isn’t true.   …
