“the Lanyap wrote a story that I think was just the latest in the series. They're not very happy with Tommy Tuberville. Their entity itself is not very happy with Tommy Tuberville. They've been big on the, you know, he's from Florida, that kind of stuff. Their latest story is Tommy Tuberville took money from Social Security.”
