a mommy blogger gained a huge following by talking about Hollywood and pop culture now she's covering Donald Trump and Robert F Kenedy Jr on the campaign Trail and we are told she's making a fortune a great deal of money doing it well uh Jessica Jessica Reed Krauss joins us now Jessica as I just said we are told you're making a fortune are you prepared to tell us what you're making not quite but yes making good money and having a lot of fun along the way uh six figures um yes okay over 250 I'm I
'm I'm I'm a nasty kind of guy I'm very I'm I'm prying here but over 250,000 would you say I guess this is what you get when you um you know show up to Fox Business right um yes over over that well we love success on this program and congratulations and thank you for being honest about it we we appreciate that now how did it happen you went from momy blogger to a political person on the campaign Trail well I think it just goes back to my love of Storytelling you know I've used to you know write
about my family life lifestyle that kind of like evolved into celebrity you know content and then I just saw the election as sort of more entertaining than Hollywood at a certain point and I thought why not try to have fun with it you know get out on the campaign Trail as an independent reporter or Journal J whatever you want to call it and just see if we could kind of offer a different perspective than what is currently available so you write articles on the campaign Trail and and then you sell
them to Publications and that kind of thing that's how you do it no actually I I do I have two different um social channels so I cover in real time on Instagram stories wherever I'm at like right now I'm in Austin Texas for the Kennedy um with the Kennedy team to track his you know events here but I cover it in real time on Instagram and then I go home and I write long form campaign chapters on substack and people subscribe you know $7 a month to read the stories so it's really a subscription b
ased uh Arrangement so if I were to start writing a newsletter I could make some serious money is that what you're telling us you got to have some good gossip and exactly you could you've been a very good sport and we thank you very much for joining us and I hope you can come again and we'll get into more serious substantive stuff cuz I'd love to talk to you more thank you very much indeed Jessica well thank you for having me sure come on back anytime
