Democratic Senator Ben Ray Lujan snubbed Gateway Pundit reporter Myles Morell on Capitol Hill when Morell attempted to speak with him.

Lujan’s attitude came off as arrogant and pretentious, which is a common theme for Senate Democrats on the Hill.

Morell and independent journalist Anthony Pellegrino caught up with Lujan near an elevator, and the public servant immediately weasels his way out of any potential conversation by asking, “Who are you with?”

Senators asking you who you’re with is a common cop out tactic Senators will use as an excuse to avoid talking to reporters.

Morell told Lujan he is with TGP, and Lujan ignores Morell. He then turns over to Pellegrino and accuses him of being a “tracker.”

A tracker is a political operative that is deployed into the field to ask politicians inflammatory questions in an attempt to make them look bad.

Both Democrats and Republicans deploy trackers across the country.

Lujan then turns to Morell and once again asks him who he is with. Morell once again tells Lujan he’s with the Gateway Pundit.

Lujan then sarcastically said, “Thanks for being here,” and slightly moved Morell’s phone before having another conversation with Pellegrino about media credentials on the Hill.

As Lujan went into the elevator, Morell told him it was nice to meet him as a gesture of professionalism.

Lujan said it was great to meet Morell as well and then gave him a cold, dismissive look.

Lujan is running for reelection unopposed in 2026, so he will get at least another six years in office. Senators often get insane job security, as most of them run in non-competitive states.

His tone of voice and body language suggest that once he heard Morell was with the Gateway Pundit and not a legacy media outlet, he immediately shut down the conversation.

If it was CNN, MS, CBS, or Fox News, then he would’ve been more than happy to talk to them.

Legacy media outlets are much easier for Senators to talk to since they never cover things that actually matter.

The lack of effort to talk to a non-legacy media outlet is typical of a Democratic Senator who thinks he’s better than everyone and forgets that he serves the American people.
