We have spent the past three years covering President Trump, the White House and investigations connected to the administration. We were both part of a team that won a Pulitzer Prize in 2018 for coverage of President Trump and his campaign's ties to Russia. ( You can read the winning stories here. )
In April 2017, Michael and another Times reporter, Emily Steel, disclosed a series of sexual harassment allegations against Bill O'Reilly, the Fox News host, and he was forced out less than three weeks later. This coverage also won a Pulitzer in 2018 as part of a package of stories that led to an international reckoning on workplace sexual harassment.
Most recently, on The Times's TV show "The Weekly," we explored how President Trump's legacy will last for decades in part thanks to his former White House counsel Don McGahn, who ushered a record number of judges to lifetime appointments. The appointments of more than 100 conservative judges, including the successful nominations of Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, helped reshape the federal judiciary for a generation.
Maggie joined The Times in 2015 as a campaign correspondent. Before that she worked as a political reporter at Politico, from 2010 to 2015. She previously worked at other publications, including The New York Post and The New York Daily News.
From 2012 to 2016, Michael covered the F.B.I., Department of Homeland Security and the Pentagon. He spent 2011 in Iraq chronicling the last year of the American occupation. From 2007 to 2010, he covered doping and off-the-field issues for the sports section. He started his career at the Times in 2005 as a clerk on the foreign desk.
