NEW: With just days before the election, Mike Rogers' campaign is cashing checks from an extremist group that's lobbying for a national abortion ban with no exceptions. Michigan women can't trust Mike Rogers to have a seat in the Senate. www.commondreams.org/news/mike-ro...

A vote for a Republican on November 3 is a vote against your local public school…

"This week we’ve seen two red-state Democrats in close races calling out their opponents’ gross bigotry and making clear that fellow Americans’ gender identity shouldn’t be treated as a political football." open.substack.com/pub/wonkette...

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

President Teddy Roosevelt on "certain malefactors of great wealth," 1907. "I regard this contest as one to determine who shall rule this free country—the people through their governmental agents or a few ruthless and domineering men, whose wealth makes them peculiarly formidable..."

My God, it’s exhausting hearing Conservative people talk about “naked” Fritos and “Simply” Ketchup, but then pull the lever that stands opposed to even the most sensible gun control measures. As if gun violence isn’t the top cause of death for American children. I just can’t take it.

Jesse Welles: 🎶 Genius has it’s limits. Stupidity don’t. Restraint has its limits. Depravity don't. 🎶

I think the lessons from how both countries came out of authoritarian government, and the different ways they did it, were really important. There’s a playbook for these authoritarians, but there’s also a playbook to get out of it.

Mike Rogers pushed legislation that helped fuel the opioid crisis while his campaigns were being bankrolled by Big Pharma - and if he goes to the Senate, he'll keep putting his corporate donors over Michigan voters. michiganindependent.com/politics/mik...

The John James Tax is a tax on our small businesses, our groceries, and our gas. It’s a tax that Michiganders will remember at the ballot box this November. Learn more and see how it's impacting you here: WWW.JohnJamesTax.com

The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY_8...

Raw milk strikes again. Thirteen people across nine states have become sick with E. coli after consuming Sierra Nevada Graziers’ product, with 8 of them having been hospitalized.

Mike Rogers spent months backing Trump’s Iran war. Now, with energy prices soaring, he suddenly wants it to "end and end quickly." @timmiller.bsky.social and Alex Wagner tear into the Republican Senate candidate’s abrupt change in tune.

John James has had plenty of chances to stand up for Michiganders. Instead he's voted for Trump's cuts, Trump's tariffs and Trump's Iran war. www.ms.now/morning-joe/...

$40 Billion would have extended the ACA subsidies for an entire year. Instead, Trump's Congress pulled healthcare from millions of Americans to bomb little girls in Iran and kill 18 American soldiers. This isn't America First policy...

“When you see a candidate for lieutenant governor alongside John James for governor specifically stating that this is a tool that they would use to erode...our fundamental rights to reproductive freedom, that’s a bit of a wake-up call." - Winnie Brinks www.eupnews.com/2026/09/winn...

🚨 BREAKING: Epstein-associated donors gave nearly $4.7 million to Mike Rogers' campaign and political committees while he opposed releasing the Epstein files, arguing for more redactions to "protect somebody who got an airplane and rode with him." www.metrotimes.com/news/donors-...

Get in, folks: a new Russian disinfo campaign is targeting the midterms, specifically Democrats, in what seems to be the first attempt by the Kremlin-backed op to meddle in this year’s U.S. elections. They're faking celebrity videos attacking Dems and are...very stupid. www.ms.now/news/russia-...

Voter Fraud and Voter Suppression joycevance.substack.com/p/voter-frau...

Hasan Piker isn't part of the Abdul El-Sayed campaign. Lorenzo Sewell is a member of the Mike Rogers campaign. And he's a proper extremist and bigot who the media isn't covering. I brought receipts in the Guardian today: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I like that this design appears to show the birth date of liberty as 1776, and its death as 2026

Really hope Obama gets the chance to mock this on the campaign trail in MI.

Michiganders are struggling. Billionaires and DC insiders control the agenda, gutting healthcare and funding wars as our kids go hungry. We need leaders who aren't for sale. Will Lawrence is the real deal for MI07. Unbought. Unafraid. Chip in to help Will flip it blue! social.demcast.com/s/ShmxLHMT

It has been 15 days since I asked for a debate, so we decided to launch a debate tracker so South Carolinians can see for themselves how their "Senator" is hiding from them and from her opponent. What are you so afraid of, Darline? Visit debatemedarline.com to track for yourself.

So you can be mad about a guy who one time hung out with another guy who (maybe) said things you disagree with, or you can stay home and help the guy who’s funded by literal Nazis. michiganadvance.com/2025/08/05/p...

This is so bizarre. A politician telling you her vision for America is that you’ll have to work when you’re sick and die young, orphaning your kids. Please vote for @drannieandrews.com

ICYMI: Mike Rogers did the bidding of his telecom industry donors in Congress, advancing their priorities while threatening consumer and privacy protections—then he got rich advising the industry on the same issues he regulated. michiganadvance.com/2026/08/19/t...

Cyclospora is about more than Americans getting sick. It’s about the cost of grift and broken institutions. And it raises questions about why DOJ, which has jurisdiction, doesn’t seem to be doing anything. joycevance.substack.com/p/bad-food?r...

To all the people whining about any commentary on Natalie Harp: We’re paying her $150,000 salary. Trump isn’t. Perfectly legitimate to ask what job serving the public she’s doing.

This is the same person who shamed Kamala Harris for supposedly sleeping her way to success. She can take a seat and STFU.

Bravo! Michigan recognizes that the EO set to change the childhood vaccine schedule is BS. Essentially in 2026, it is wise to reject anything coming out the WH 🧪 www.abc12.com/news/health/...

Sharing my fundraiser for Diego one more time—here’s a clip from his valedictory address here in LA for those who would like to learn more about him.

NEW: In a win for Michigan voters, a judge dismissed an RNC lawsuit that sought to make it easier for partisan poll challengers to interrupt the state's ballot-counting process. The effort, coupled with the DOJ's move to send federal monitors, raises fears the GOP will work to disrupt vote counts.

💯 Love to see this

So Trump and Blanche and the Republican Senate own the Epstein coverup.

🚩🚩🚩 Mike Rogers is pledging to be "Trump's loyal soldier," even as his agenda guts education, destroys manufacturing jobs, and spikes costs in Michigan. Michiganders don't want a Trump sycophant like Mike Rogers representing them in the Senate. www.freep.com/story/opinio...

Hey there, Abdul’s campaign. Have we got an ad for you!

I encourage all of us to have the grace and focus shown in this going up within minutes of the race being called.

Former Army JAG and combat veteran Margaret Donovan on the damage Secretary of Defense Hegseth is doing to our military. He's threatening the core values, culture, and excellence of an institution of which Americans are rightly proud. Congress needs to hold him accountable. youtu.be/II7pGJkV5C8?...
