It has been months in the making, but today I launched the 2026 Midterms Candidate Due Diligence website.
midterms.theleahfiles.com
For far too long we have not had a comprehensive side-by-side picture of who is funding our candidates, who pays for them to get elected, their stance on issues we care about, and many more important factors.
So, I built what I could not find: a page for every single person on your ballot, showing exactly who is paying for them.
Pick your state and you get your voting rules, issues on your specific ballot this midterm, a map of your congressional districts, the measures on your ballot and what they actually do, and a profile on all 2,517 candidates for governor, Senate and House.
For each candidate it shows where their money came from and who wrote the checks, what outside groups spent for them and against them, the companies and nonprofits they own out of their own financial disclosure, and where they stand on the issues with the vote or the quote behind it.
Every number links back to the filing it came from. If something is missing or something is wrong, tell me and I will fix it.
Finalizing some of the smaller elections now, but it's 80% done.
It is free and the site doesn't ask for donations. But if you would like to support my work you can subscribe to my Substack (link in bio) or buy me a coffee at buymeacoffee.com/theleahfile…
I hope you enjoy!

Mushroom cloud and all. Why are they allowed to openly threaten the world with nukes they aren't even supposed to have?

We have given Israel at least $22 billion extra since the genocide began. They have used that money to murder over 75,000 Palestinians (and Lebanese, Syrians, etc.) and 22,000 kids. Now, they say if you don't continue to give us that money, Zionists in America "don't feel safe."

“A bitch that says she has no memory before 14 is a liar”. Wow. Must be nice to have that experience but it’s real and not something people brag about. You could have reached out to me. You may be surprised. I’d be happy to speak with you and you can ask me whatever you want. But for edification, not for views. Let me know. You know people who have my number. Text any time.

Here’s where I’m currently at on the saga with @RealCandaceO & @leahfiles
Everyone needs to remember that Shawn Ryan started all of this. He attacked Leah, posted the interview with seven minutes cut and never even denied his pre-recording redaction stipulations.
Candace and Baron both jumped in way too early missing that point entirely.
And their biggest gotcha is claiming Leah’s in depth substacks are just ai regurgitation?
What did Leah lie about? You have to go back to that. The answer is nothing.
So is it true that members of Ryan’s team left over the way he handled Leah? Not confirmed yet, but that’s a big question.
I don’t think enough people heard exactly what Leah told Stew Peters on exactly what she was censored on. It wasn’t just Peter Thiel.
So Leah has been dragged through this, Shawn was a dick, Baron was uncharacteristicly glitchy. And by time Leah started talking with Candace she was fed up with these smears lacking any substance.
I hope Candace has her on now, hopefully it’s not too late.
But this still looks horrible on Ryan, and it’s not a good look for Candace either.
She completely missed the fact that her buddy didn’t even deny restricting Leahs interview and he confirmed he invested in the enemy of the people.
If TPUSA did something like that she would be all over it.
I’m still giving Candace a pass for a variety of reasons, but people who read the Leah Files know she’s on the team.
Pride and blind loyalty muck things up. And it all starts with Shawn Ryan.
Hopefully Leah and Candace clear things up, but it’s going to have to go back to what really happened with Shawn Ryan, Sarah Adams and this producer who reportedly quit.
Also his drug experience in Mexico right before the Leah interview? It’s like he needs his friends to check in on him not just blindly defend him. There’s a lot of shadiness in this story and the spotlight needs to get off the spat between Candace and Leah and back on the core of this entire controversy.
Let me help you out, Candace. Those are tournament chips, and they aren't worth a dime outside of the tournament. Every player pays the same one-time buy-in and gets the same starting stack. There's no casino loan involved, and there never is for tournaments. I play maybe once a year because I love the game which I've talked about before. A little concerning how low you are going without doing your research.
Maybe your time would be better spent looking into Polymarket, your friend Shawn's sponsor? The literal betting app who's major investors include Don Jr, Founders Fund (Peter Thiel), and the Intercontinental Exchange, you know the NYSE's parent company. The one I had to do a sponsorship for while on his show, a few days before dropping a follow the money on them. Maybe that is where your time should be spent. Not by making up stories about someone who has contributed to good research for the Charlie Kirk case. This is beyond personal and I don't underst

I “followed the money” and look what I found? A high stakes professional poker player.
I’m noticing a distinct gambling trend amongst all of these chaos agents. Is it possible they have debts with casinos and are not operating in good faith?
Think we’re going to need a deep dive.

Forbidding a guest to mention Peter Thiel & Andreesen Horowitz during the show , then NOT releasing the episode until he was called out for NOT releasing it is NOT transparency. It’s censorship & then trying to save your reputation after being called out for censoring & NOT releasing the episode until.
He didn’t deny telling her she couldn’t mention Thiel/Andreessen/Horowitz, how is everyone ignoring that part?
When someone with very little talent comes out of nowhere & shoots to the top of YouTube you know he’s being pushed by the deep state algorithm.
Real adversaries of the establishment are put on the “borderline content” algorithm & suppressed like my show.
Wild to see people pretending this is actual transparency instead of censorship for the powerful & scrambling to save face after being called out.
Leah,
I chose not to release your episode because I personally had serious concerns about the truthfulness of your statements. I take what I put out on my platform seriously for myself and for my listeners. For the sake of transparency, here's the full interview so everyone can watch and draw their own conclusions.
As for my investments, I've intentionally made them public, as you see on my LinkedIn. I invest in Shield AI and Anduril for no other reason than I believe in their ability to develop technology that equips and protects the American warfighter. That's something deeply personal to me that I believe in.

Yeah the timing is just off. Her piece on Glacier goes up and a couple days later you’re running the ad for Shawn’s app, the one he actually co-owns. Then people notice, and suddenly you’re dumping the DMs, calling her research AI garbage and her background fake.
You had dinner with the guy. Your episode ran fine. Hers got shelved. Now you’re the one reading the ad while treating the criticism like it’s just drama. The ownership stake, the privacy policy flip, the Twilio logs, the no liability clause, that’s all sitting in public docs. Not some secret conspiracy that needed a year of work.
If follow the money only counts when it’s not your friend’s sponsor, just say that.

Why is everyone suddenly having amnesia about who runs the business side of Candace’s podcast, including the ads? She has repeatedly said it’s her husband, who stays off social media and is unlikely to know the ins and outs of this community.
Considering how often she says she doesn’t understand tech, the idea that she suddenly knows all about the Glacier app and how it works makes me wonder whether the people trying to cancel her over it have ever even watched her show.

Here’s the thing though: whether @leahfiles is a spook or not is 100% irrelevant to Candace, Shawn, and Baron destroying their own credibility by scrambling to protect Shawn’s reputation, his/their operation(s), and his investments, all at Leah’s expense with nothing but logical fallacies and ad hominem attacks. Leah could secretly be an axe murderer and this would remain the case.
Leah was a non-factor in this here clip wherein Shawn tells Anduril founder Palmer Luckey—whose company he’s heavily invested in, which produces drones killing kids in Gaza, and whose drones are compatible for use with the HADES jet that flew over UVU on 9/10—about a deal he’s taking similar to Luckey’s for $10 billion over ten years.
•Shawn called Leah a fraud.
•Candace said Leah’s research on Glacier app was full of big errors.
•Crazy Village Lady attacked Leah on Candace’s behalf claiming Leah lied about her private conversations with Candace.
Not ONE of these people has been willing to cite ANY examples or evidence of their defamatory accusations of fraudulence, errors, or lies.
Don’t let your desire for them to be trustworthy drive you to deceive yourself when they show you exactly who/what they are. Don’t suppress the inconsistencies you observe with your own eyes and ears between the image they portray (good Nashville Catholics) versus the character traits they demonstrate (scrambling and lashing out to protect the deep state).
Don’t forget that limited hangout, sheep dipping, controlled opposition, etc are all very real, very common practices. Don’t forget that the bigger the platform, the more skeptical you should ALWAYS be of their authenticity, especially when the algorithm boosts rather than suppresses or censors their content.
If you’re honest with yourself, I think you’ll find there are a lot of reasons to doubt their honesty, legitimacy, integrity, and independence that have absolutely nothing to do with what Leah’s exposed and/or triggered them to expose about themselves. They’re using Catholicism as a cloak, just like Erika Kirk and TPUSA wear evangelical Christianity as a mask. After all, a nice, religious, “heaven-focused” person would never deliberately deceive you.
It was the beginning of the end for me when Candace had nothing to say following the Tates’ Miami arrest. After weeks completely ignoring comments asking her to address it, she made a brief statement claiming she simply didn’t want to speak on it until she had a chance to read the legal filings. Obviously, she’s had a chance to read the filings, yet has remained curiously silent about her husband’s good friend’s arrest pertaining to sex trafficking and child rape out of the UK and ROMANIA. She’d previously had Andrew on for an interview in which she portrayed him as if he’s the real victim. She claimed his victims were all liars. You don’t (or shouldn’t) get to remain silent on your and your husband’s own links to sex trafficking, child rape, etc. out of Romania of all places when you’ve spent a year rightly calling attention to such links among many, many people affiliated with TPUSA. Not with your credibility and integrity intact anyway. I tried to make excuses for and look past it because I liked her. I shouldn’t have.
Please do tell me if you have any compelling arguments to the contrary. Otherwise, it appears you’re just sucking up to Candace for the clout she accused Leah of seeking for daring to tell the truth publicly. Or maybe you’re in one of those group chats for paid operatives like the Fight! Fight! Fight! MAGA astroturfing campaign, but for the controlled opposition. This seems pretty likely given the spate of bizarre posts praising Shawn’s “transparency” when it was anything but.
*I like to use em dashes and have never used AI to author a post, just for the record. To anyone wondering how you add one, you just hit the regular dash twice (on iPhone anyway). I’ve heard some say it’s not possible to type them yourself, but that’s not true.

Replying to @RealCandaceO @GenXGirl1994
Candace, for someone who prides herself on exposing other people’s bullshit, you seem awfully comfortable substituting character assassination for a substantive rebuttal.
Leah’s research is supposedly worthless, her background is supposedly manufactured, and she’s supposedly an AI-generated chaos agent. That’s a lot of accusations for someone who claims to have nothing to hide. If her work is as embarrassingly bad as you insist, dismantling it should be easy. So dismantle it. The personal insults aren’t evidence, and your confidence isn’t a credential.
And the ad read? Questioning someone’s endorsement doesn’t automatically make the person asking a question a shill. That’s a convenient way to turn scrutiny into a personal attack instead of addressing the actual criticism.
You say Leah is free to publish the correspondence. Great. Let people read it. Let them judge your words, her words, and the evidence for themselves. You don’t get to dictate the verdict just because you’ve delivered your side with enough dramatic flair.
And the irony of accusing someone else of manufacturing a background while attempting to discredit their entire body of work without addressing its specific claims is almost too rich.
Candace, being influential doesn’t make you infallible, and having an audience doesn’t make your interpretation the final word. You can be right about plenty of things and still be wrong about this one.
If Leah’s research is rubbish, prove it. If she lied, show exactly where. If her claims fall apart under scrutiny, expose the flaws.
But don’t confuse humiliating someone rhetorically with disproving them intellectually.
You don’t get to demand accountability from everyone else while expecting your own conclusions to be accepted on authority. The receipts can speak for themselves. Let’s see what they actually say.

I don’t like any of this. I respect @RealCandaceO and @leahfiles
I wish they would connect privately and resolve this.
AND I think there is NO justification for @ShawnRyan762’s behavior.
Shawn’s team invited Leah, Shawn treated her like shit. Then, he publicly slandered her on another huge show (diary of a CEO) which is why Leah posted about him. Then he posted a video directly calling her a liar and full of shit as he finally released the interview…confirming he was an asshole that day.
Shawn was in the wrong. He didn’t have to air her interview…true. But he slandered her. She defended herself.
What I still don’t understand:
1. Why is Candace defending Shawn (unsolicited…it was between Leah and Shawn) and running ads for an app that is not what it claims to be?
2. Why/how is Leah’s research wrong?
3. Does Candace believe Glacier is a good product?
Replying to @leahfiles @NihiloX
You have been going on for days but people can’t respond?
You did an x space at the crackhead hour of 3am to refer to me as a shill because I didn’t get on board with your technological illiteracy about Glacier.
Citing normal legal language, compliance with federal law, and Apple/Google Play store requirements as some grand conspiracy is complete and utter slop.
You’re not a victim. You were petty and rude to me, plus tried to chide someone on the side to record me without my knowledge. (Don’t think I’m not aware of that).
You published a vindictive hit piece because you were angry at Shawn Ryan for not taking you seriously and then tried to plant seeds of doubt in people’s minds about whether they could trust people because of non-existent connections and ad reads.
Absolutely wild and unnecessary.
theleahfiles retweeted
The people defending Shawn Ryan and Candacr Owens unconditionally should probably stop and consider the claims being mentioned.
You can like them and value their other work and still acknowledge that this is a genuine concern.
If they are honest, they will do the right thing in response, and there will be no further issues.
Yes, those documented points—policy changes after launch, Twilio LE handling, scrubbed history, missing audits, pricing, and Amazon analytics—are legitimate grounds for criticism of any product sold on privacy grounds. Users focused on anti-establishment skepticism will naturally flag them against the marketing claims and decide based on their own threat model.

This is inaccurate and spinning a narrative and you know that. It’s also very emotional. I get that you are friends with Candace but this attempt to discredit my work is pathetic. You even state in here that Signal collects that information if you send it money. But most don’t use Signal and pay so that’s a very manipulative argument. You have to pay to use Glacier, not Signal. And minimizing my graphics that help explain things to people visually is low brow. Guess the hit job went out on me.

During this 2025 interview with Shawn Ryan, Anduril Industries founder Palmer Luckey posed a hypothetical to Ryan:
Would he accept $10 billion over 10 years to continue his work while remaining independent?
Ryan said “yes,” adding that he was already having that discussion.📽️👇🏼
