I have had most of tonight’s @msnbc #MichiganPrimary on mute especially during the interview with Dearborn’s Mayor. But this Detroiter has a message and gets tonight’s last word. “I understand “uncommitted” but this is too important of an election to be uncommitted”.

Update on the DeSantis Dummymander.
House Democrats have won all four of the Florida districts the extremists tried to steal by redrawing them.
Signed, Sealed, and Destroyed.

Make no mistake: There is only one choice in the Michigan U.S. Senate race, and it’s Abdul El-Sayed.
ALT A black graphic with white text reading, "Statement from DNC Chair Ken Martin: Haley Stevens’ disappointing decision to endorse Mike Rogers, a Trump ally who would join Republican efforts to sell out working families, is a betrayal of the values of the Democratic Party. At a moment when Democrats are united in fighting for Michigan families and standing up to Trump’s agenda, we reject these efforts to sow division within our party. We will not allow last-minute political stunts to derail our momentum and we will triple down on our efforts to elect Abdul El-Sayed on Tuesday."

The Republican Party is the party of Donald Trump.
A vote for Mike Rogers IS a vote for Trump.
I stand with Dr. @AbdulElSayed.

To my friend, this is not the way. You are damaging your reputation, your credibility, and your future.
Life will always bring disagreements, disappointments, setbacks, and anguish. But it is how we respond to those moments that reveals our character and defines our legacy.
Pain may explain our actions, but it does not excuse them. And disappointment should never become a license to destroy everything we’ve worked so hard to build.
Your actions have the potential to harm folks for generations. Sometimes you have to reflect and simply step back.
But I will tell you this: Trump, MAGA, and Mike Rogers are never the answer.

BREAKING: A member of Perfecting Church in Detroit is FURIOUS after Mike Rogers appeared alongside Haley Stevens.
“It’s UNCONSCIONABLE! This is CRAZY!”
He says he confronted Stevens after the service: “I’m completely disappointed in you.”
Her response? “I’m sorry.”

Let’s be clear about one thing.
Dr. Abdul El-Sayed will always put the American people first and fight hard to lower the high cost of living.
His election is critical to flipping control of the United States Senate.
Mike Rogers is a partisan hack who represents more of the same MAGA extremism.
Vote @AbdulElSayed in Michigan!
Mayra SGdT🇨🇺🇺🇸 retweeted
I supported Haley Stevens—she was my friend. I am shocked by her decision to support an anti-choice Trump Republican. Rogers attacks on Dr. El Sayed have been disgusting and his votes to take resources away from vulnerable people cruel. As a proud Arab American and Democrat I support a candidate who cares about everyone getting opportunities to have a good life. Shame on you Haley Shame Shame.
Mayra SGdT🇨🇺🇺🇸 retweeted
This is a despicable betrayal from Rep. Stevens.
Senate Democrats are united in our support for Abdul El-Sayed, because we know he will fight for the economic interests of working families in Michigan, unlike Mike Rogers, who is a tool of Donald Trump and billionaire donors.

DNC Black Caucus chair: “We are dismayed that Congresswoman Haley Stevens has revealed herself to be a sellout who used Black Michiganders for a political stunt. Congresswoman Stevens has lost her way, and Michiganders know that Mike Rogers is a shill for Trump”

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia.
I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.
Mayra SGdT🇨🇺🇺🇸 retweeted
On October 16, 2019, I told Donald Trump, “With you, Mr. President, all roads lead to Putin.”
On October 16, 2026, Trump signed an executive order waiving new sanctions on Russia passed by bipartisan majorities in Congress and signed into law just last month.
This decision insults America’s commitment to democracy and our brave men and women in uniform, as Russia helps Iran target American forces.
I join Republican senators in condemning this unconscionable capitulation to a Russian dictator who illegally invaded Ukraine and butchers innocent civilians.
As I have asked for years: What does Putin have on Trump that he would sell out America’s values?

This morning I examine the appeals court striking down the Hope Florida grand jury report, @GovRonDeSantis’s reaction, and why his admin’s decision to take $10 million that could have helped Floridians but instead ended up in his PAC, remains an issue

NEW: Taxpayers paid a 2nd law firm $111,387 to keep Hope Florida grand jury report sealed for a client DeSantis' office won't name. No one recalls who chose to divert $10M in taxpayer money. Plus, how @JeffAaronLaw steered a $5M grant that landed in @JamesUthmeierFL's PAC. floridatrident.org/governors…

Say whatever you need to say, however you need to say it, however long you need to say it.
But I’m going to say this slowly and stubbornly for the folks who still don’t get it:
When Democrats win the House majority in a few weeks, @RepJeffries who has kept his caucus remarkably unified and has been historically successful at controlling the House floor from the minority- WILL become the first Black Speaker of the House.
That’s not speculation. That’s how this will work because he has done the work from leading to recruiting to raising the necessary funds for the team to compete.
So argue, complain, handwring, write your think pieces, post your threads, curse me out. Hell, do what you need to do.
The vast majority of us are focused on winning the damn majority in both chambers and addressing the needs of the American people.
I have said it many times, if you’re too slow or too stubborn to understand, I’ll say it with one more time: meeting secretly with a person you need to be investigating to find common ground is not the same as meeting publicly with a person you have no power to hold to account. If you don’t understand the respective roles and powers of the mayor of New York and the Speaker of the House, I don’t know what else to say to you. Also, based on his past secret meetings, eg with Silicon Valley, it’s understandable a lot of people don’t trust him.

Join me at the South Dade Democrats meeting! I look forward to hearing your concerns, answering your questions, and discussing how we can build a better future for District 27. I hope to see you there!

A list of budget earmarks that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis did NOT veto:
- $725,000 to pay an education-and-propaganda company linked to U.S. Ambassador to Israel/ former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee to develop anti-communism curriculum materials for use in Florida public schools
