As Trump backs Miguez for Congress, other Republicans aren't backing down

WAFB is an established local television newsroom with an identified reporter and analyst, and the article attributes its claims and quotations. The brief report offers limited original sourcing beyond candidates and an analyst, but no clear credibility warning appears.
