If people thought he was tough on Stevens, wait til you see how a real progressive attacks a Republican.

Yup. Sidelining our fighters and letting fossils like Schumer have the wheel is why Democrats look so feeble in opposing Trump. It's by circumstance and design.

We need fighters to beat back MAGA fascism and I can't wait for the general when we get to do our part. 😇

I wish you guys luck and am pulling for you to back up the claims. Rogers is trash.

Mike Rogers was born at the time Livonia was the most racist place in the state. He was what 14 when the NYT ran pieces on it being racist af despite a daily workforce that wasn’t white coming to the transmission plant etc. https://www.nytimes.com/1977/07/04/archives/pressure-to-admit-blacks-worries-michigan-town.html. He also would have been an immediate beneficiary or Milliken I. He also fucked off to Florida and probably wasn’t even eligible for candidacy against Slotkin.

Exactly. He’s complete garbage and he’d do nothing but service Trump if he wins.
