Pro-life Congresswoman Kat Cammack says she asked me only to delay publication of our interview about her pregnancy emergency that required an abortion. My contemporaneous notes do not reflect that.
She’s my representative. She’s a hypocrite. Her first vote was to overturn the election she won. 2nd vote to cut SNAP and WIC. She votes against women. Not every woman in Florida has the governor’s phone number. She just voted against the War Powers resolution and was one of the 38 who voted against the bipartisan Fair Housing bill. She’s on her “Sympathy for the Devil” tour because she is up for reelection or could be in line for Byron Donalds’ Lt. Governor. She did not appear at a Town Hall in Gainesville, her place of residence.
Note the proud display of her MAGA hat. She makes me sick.
This Congresswoman did not have to come on your show and recount her story that was already out in the public. You have every right to air the show in its entirety. Thank you for being an intrepid reporter and not backing down.
You did the right thing, and all your critics can stick it. Your star will rise as a result. They should keep drawing more attention because the perception is not what they think it is.
Thank you for your work! Hearing the difficult and careful deliberations of humanity and then making difficult and careful decisions for humanity, is not easy. Blessings!
As Queen Elizabeth ll famously remarked, "Recollections may vary". I totally believe the notes you took. I don't know anything about her but her memory appears to be wonky.
I agree with all the previous comments about your professionalism. I would also never refer to anybody like her as pro life. I think that term is absolutely meaningless. It’s more accurate to say that she opposes reproductive healthcare for women or in the short version is anti-choice.
Thank you! Why do we keep these terms?! Pro life means we're anti life if we don't align with you. Why do women allow this terminology? I swear Florida is filled with crazy people.
Anti-choice. I hope that term catches on. Its perfect.
Reading different views of pro-lifers, they make it seem like we have abortion parties where we toast each other with glassfuls of fetus blood. Of course they couldn't be further from the truth. I will say, Republicans are the MASTERS of propagandizing the most asinine of messages. These days, I wouldn't doubt if Salem-type witch trials made a comeback. Too many Americans have become easily susceptible to their brainwashing.
Well…glad you have the receipts. Did she really feel that she was talking off the record or something? The problem is that she showed real courage…followed by a tremendous lack of courage. I think she comes out worse and will have no allies on the issue now.
This story encapsulates why a pay my annual membership gladly to support.
You did the right thing, Tara. Publishing an on-the-record interview at its conclusion is appropriate. You do amazing and important work. Don't let the threats silence you. Stay safe but KEEP SPEAKING.

Thank you for those important details, Susan.
“Under His Eye…”
Tara, you NEVER have to apologize to anyone for doing your “civic” responsibility in accurate reporting for public interest.
Fuck the critics.
This wasn't an apology but a way to correct the record. But thank you!
The facts and the truth must be told, regardless of the outcome.
No one has ever been told, nor has ever said, that doing so would be easy or painless.
agreed, thanks Rock
You didn't do anything wrong. You’re a good reporter and she came to you. So never apologize for someone getting cold feet.
Thank you
You’re so welcome

100% you did the right thing
Thank you
You are courageous and thoughtful and I’m grateful for you.

I believe deep down she wanted it published. She wanted to tell the world what happened to her.
