Making Lobbying Great Again at Heather Podesta’s RNC Breakfast

July 19, 2016 By Rachel Greenberg

One of the most famous names in democratic politics, lobbyist Heather Podesta, hosted a busy breakfast this morning at Mabel’s BBQ. As this convention proves comparatively bleak, the red stickers which read “MAKE LOBBYING GREAT AGAIN” were an exceptionally amusing accessory. Invitees resembled traditional Washington, D.C. demographics: lobbyists, legislators, and off duty press. Including Congressman John Ratcliffe, Indian Ambassador Arun K. Singh, Dede Lea, Andi Fisher, Betsy Fischer Martin, Rachel Pearson. HBO Film Executives Len Amato, Tara Grace and reporters Ruth Marcus, Daniel Lippman and Megan Wilson.

Purple Strategies’ Alex Castilianos has put up his own mustache if CURE can get 500 more donors between now and January 1st. From the Ann Hand CURE pins to the red, white and blue jelly beans, the Key to the Cure was a great success.

How big? The Reliable Source got this from Connie Milstein?:

“Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous. He looks 10 years younger.”
