Miami Fort Lauderdale, FL, June 22, 2026 —
Peter Schorsch, editor of Florida Politics, has issued an apology to his readers, not to Jacob Engels, but for the presence of what Schorsch describes as Engels’ AI-generated content within the news sphere his audience encounters. Schorsch expressed regret for underestimating Engels, drawing a comparison to a scenario in the film “Layer Cake” where a character is eliminated by someone they had previously dismissed.
Schorsch referenced past interactions with Engels, noting a period when Engels was linked to Roger Stone and the Proud Boys. He also mentioned a defamation lawsuit involving Engels that resulted in an arrest warrant. According to Schorsch, Engels is now employing AI for attack pieces.
Schorsch stated his regret stems from his readers being exposed to this type of content, which he believes detracts from coverage of Florida politics.
