'This was 100% the biggest scoop that I probably will ever get.'
That it came from a journalist running a hyperlocal politics blog was one thing; the seemingly self-deprecating kicker in his tweet was another. Political journalists aren't typically known for public humility, especially when reporting a career-defining scoop.
But Schorsch said determining what the warrant was about was beyond what he was capable of in the frantic moments between confirming the news and tweeting it. "This was too important of a situation to not put up the bat signal for more help [from other reporters]," he said. "You know, my job is to make payroll. I talk with a lot of people, I do podcasts, I lay out, you know, snarky tweets and things like that. I know my place in the world," he said."There's just people that are better at what this requires.
Schorsch's tweet sparked a frenzy among reporters across the country trying to confirm the news. Minutes later, Trump issued a statement railing against the raid and confirming Schorsch's scoop.
