In response to the news that Dr. Oz will be revealing Donald Trump‘s medical records on his talk show, Kurt Eichenwald posted a series of tweets today that really got political and journalism nerds buzzing.

WHY ARE WE TAKING THIS SERIOUSLY??? A reality TV star running for prez is having his medical condition reviewed by a daytime talk show host! — Kurt Eichenwald (@kurteichenwald) September 13, 2016

Dr Oz conflict: “I will appear on your show but I decide what questions u ask. If Im on, your ratings will be HUUGE and you’ll make more $.” — Kurt Eichenwald (@kurteichenwald) September 13, 2016

Trump ppl STILL saying Hillary has to release more medical records from a real internist while Trump will only let a talk show host see his. — Kurt Eichenwald (@kurteichenwald) September 13, 2016

I’d be more interested in seeing what Dr. Phil, the psychiatrist, has to say about Trump. — Kurt Eichenwald (@kurteichenwald) September 13, 2016

Dr. Oz says won’t ask Trump “questions he doesn’t want to have answered.” If Trump doesn’t release medical records, he must be hammered. — Kurt Eichenwald (@kurteichenwald) September 13, 2016

If u KNOW info on Trump’s med condition or taxes, email junk email addres, [email protected] I must know who u are, but I wont tell. — Kurt Eichenwald (@kurteichenwald) September 13, 2016

After that rant, he suddenly switched gears:

My big cover story in @Newsweek that could change the dialogue about this election season will be published online tomorrow. — Kurt Eichenwald (@kurteichenwald) September 13, 2016

He tweeted this, then deleted it:

Later, he clarified that the two topics were unrelated:

Folks: I don’t have story coming out tomorrow that Trump had a breakdown. Order of tweets confused ppl I believe. Topic is other major thing — Kurt Eichenwald (@kurteichenwald) September 13, 2016

It was too little, too late, though. He’d already gotten a lot of his contemporaries wondering what on earth he is planning for tomorrow and whether he knows for a fact that Trump had a breakdown of some sort:

Kurt Eichenwald found out that Donald Trump does steroids — Gary Tasteman (@ByYourLogic) September 13, 2016

[because that’s the kind of claim that deserves way more than a tweet] — Matt Pearce (@mattdpearce) September 13, 2016

that silence you hear online is probably an editor yelling at someone on the phone — Matt Pearce (@mattdpearce) September 13, 2016

@morninggloria Eichenwald Day has become too commercial for me. We’re losing sight of its true meaning. — T. Becket Adams (@BecketAdams) September 13, 2016

tfw you’re waiting for the kurt eichenwald scoop that’s going to change the election forever pic.twitter.com/gXIN6gQYuz — chris hooks (@cd_hooks) September 13, 2016

I’m interested to hear what Eichenwald has, but count me as skeptical. — Josh Barro (@jbarro) September 13, 2016

And remember @kurteichenwald is a journalist you can’t trust. Always remember that. https://t.co/Kyfadvl7Wm — Patrick Nonwhite (@NonWhiteHat) September 13, 2016

Whatever tomorrow’s big scoop is, it better have been worth this.
