Michigan Democratic Party chair Curtis Hertel made it crystal clear on Sunday that Rep. Haley Stevens (D-MI) was no longer welcome in the state’s Democratic party.

Hertel posted to X after Stevens yanked her support from Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed (D) and gave it to his Republican challenger, “Congresswoman Stevens is not a current member of the Michigan Democratic Party, nor will she be in the future.”

    Mike Rodgers has made it clear he’s against Trans rights, he’s against equal pay for women, he’s against minimum wage increases, and he’s very proud of his ‘‘100% anti abortion voting record’’ in the past he’s said he would respect Michigan’s right to abortion laws, but shifted further right this cycle saying he’ll support federal bans on abortion. So in a fight between “won’t disavow a commercial that says the US funding Isreal and joining Israel in attacking Iran has led to high gas prices” or “will do everything in his power to harm women’s equality and human rights” she prefers harming women.

      Don’t forget that Rogers is also in favor of adding even more hurdles to disability benefits and her partner is a disability attorney. Those billable hours must be worth more than people’s survival.

      He’s also a trumpist piece of shit.

      He claims hes not. He claims he was out before Trump came in. and that his time in the military and FBI make him better.

      But when he’s asked difficult questions, like is Trump corrupt, he hems and haws and spends 5 minutes talking around the topic without addressing, much less answering the topic… and if he cant immediately offer a “Yes, hes corrupt, and an embarassment”, then you know hes got orange spraytan on his lips.
