Haley Stevens thrown out of the Michigan Democratic Party, state chair says: ‘You don’t abandon all your values!’ 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.”

    What makes this all especially delicious is that there was SUPPOSED to be an event today for “Party Unity” with Representative Jim Clyburn (D-SC). El-Sayed said Stevens shouldn’t be there because she would be “a distraction.” One of Clyburn’s people issued a statement saying: “Abdul can’t uninvite her because it’s not his event”. Then she went full on nuts, getting kicked out of the party. She uninvited herself. LOL. mynorthwest.com/national/…/4293027

    I guess the “Big Tent” party isn’t so big now, is it? That’s textbook cult behavior on full display.

    Honestly, I’m not sure if she’s trying to grift to the right (and is really bad at it) or is having an honest mental breakdown. Maybe the mental breakdown is the reason for the sloppy grift.

  • Dude the Hasbara bots are all over the social media posts about this, it’s actually insane once you become aware of it. Just a whole lotta pfps with hats and glasses in cabs of unspecified blue collar worker vehicles with some variation of “She’s standing up for America!!” Fortunately they also seem to have very low likes and might be getting suppressed by the Meta/Grok/Oracle anti-spam algorithms. It’s very weird.

    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.

    I’ve seen too many people acting confused. There’s no breakdown. She’s a hollow bell tolling for money and AIPAC must have dumped cash in her lap. Incoming Fox News correspondent seat, I bet.
