Career

Bade closely followed the House Republican investigation of the IRS’s treatment of conservative tax-exempt groups and was the only reporter to interview Lois Lerner, the IRS leader at the heart of the scandal who asserted her Fifth Amendment right on Capitol Hill, refusing to answer investigators’ questions.

She later covered the Republican Party’s investigation of the 2012 Benghazi terrorist attack and the party’s subsequent probe of Hillary Clinton’s private email use. She was promoted to Politico’s Congress team in early 2016, where she wrote about Speaker Paul Ryan’s leadership, winning an award for a magazine profile that first reported on Ryan’s decision to step down from Congress.

Rachael Bade joined The Washington Post as a congressional reporter in 2019 to cover House Democrats’ oversight of the Trump administration. She helped lead the publication’s coverage of the Trump impeachment inquiry.

She later wrote a book with reporter Karoun Demirjian about the impeachment titled Unchecked: The Untold Story Behind Congress’s Botched Impeachments of Donald Trump. Bade left The Washington Post in December 2020 and rejoined Politico in early 2021.
