🦐 I've been in Washington long enough to know that not everybody thinks the way we do back home. So I put together a little quiz. Nothing fancy. Just five questions to find out if we'd get along at a crawfish boil — or if I'd have to politely ask you to leave. Take the Official John Kennedy Friendship Quiz right here. Fair warning: there are no trick questions. But there is a right answer.

Each name opens the page’s Vipima page, with its own figures and its link to Meta’s Ad Library.
Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
