About The Blue Nuke

Actions. Accountability.
Receipts.

An independent, Democratic-focused publication on the people elected, the promises they make, and the record they build.

Politics, with
a point.

Elections change who holds power. What happens next matters just as much.

The Blue Nuke connects election results to the decisions that follow: who won, what they stand for, and how their actions affect people’s lives.

Our perspective is openly Democratic. Our work is to make the record easier to understand and the evidence easier to find, so you can decide what to do with it.

We are independent of the Democratic National Committee, any party, and any campaign.

Our approach.

  • Follow the record.

    We link claims to reporting and public records so you can read the evidence for yourself.

  • Be clear about what happened.

    A promise, a proposal and a signed law are different things. So are a race call and a certified result. Those distinctions belong in the story.

  • Keep the context.

    Estimates are labeled. Claims are attributed. Photos carry their event, date and credit wherever that information is available.
