Be sure to share this on social media, send it to reporters, make sure folks in Michigan see this! Let's get the word out! Thank you!

You know what I find so interesting? When Democrats accuse someone of doing something not on the up and up, they always bring receipts to show the proof of their accusations. When republican accuse someone of the same thing, they expect you to just believe it because they said so. Yes, I do believe Mike Rogers should give the money back. Will he? No, because republicans don't see anything wrong with that.

Michigander here. No Mike Rogers will not give the money back. His ads are a bunch of lies. He claims the tarrifs are wrong and that he will stand up to trump. Abdul is getting hit hard here. If folks can please donate. abdulforsenate.com Also is there some way I don't have to get a code everytime I want to comment?

Can you provide links to media in Michigan? It would just make it a little easier. Thanks!

I'm sure others can add more.

I'll send this to my contact in the Michigan Dems Voter Protection team. I don't know anyone on the campaign side this year.

Would a Republican candidate actually do something morally and ethically right??? Sadly, not under the current administration. Giving the money back is of course the moral and ethical thing to do, if someone has good character. But BIG MONEY is paying for corruption!

I expect nothing less from Rogers.

Sure, just to make certain the even more people know about his cupidity.

We never know what will stick. So we throw everything!

I don't know how you do it. How you go through all the pages. Thank you for everything you do. Yes he needs to give back the money just like all the evil oligarchs and Trump need to give the money back they have stolen from this country. Will they do it? Nope.

The republican corruption is unbelievable & being done almost out loud! I feel like many are just thumbing their noses at all Americans, feeling gleeful I'm sure. And there is utterly NO attempt to compromise on anything. You can see them spitting hate & distrust to divide us. Its part of the plan of conservative nationalist republicans. People are at each other's throats, many relationships destroyed. If we don't get the old croney money lovers out of office, those difficult personal relationships in our individual households will split into the streets & real blood could spill. I hope I'm wrong. ✌️💙🕊

Of course he should give the $ back. Probably will find an excuse not to though.

Great reporting and investigative work! Rogers is nothing but another gop rubber stamp for a fascist dictatorship.

Mike Rogers will never "give" back money. Therefore, he must fully, publicly prosecuted, sentenced to prison, and not the Ghislaine Maxwell type prison, and fined for every damn penny he has or very hoped to have. These people and their money fetish. Amoral beyond concept.

Go Blue Poem

A person elected to be a president doesn't mean he owns the country

Deals that enrich Trump's family and benefit Putin is blasphemy

America doesn't normalize tyrants, and we don't betray Allies

The betrayal of Ukraine and Afghanistan is hidden behind the Trump's lies

Our Constitution protects free speech and the rights of every citizen

Our laws are not subjective to the fragile ego of a president, and his pen

Citizens elected to the government should uphold the Constitution

Loyalty to a political party and a crooked president is corruption

The DOJ should protect citizens' rights, not a lawless president

The FBI investigates crimes, not because of a resentment

A Defense Secretary gives voice to the Generals of the Military

He doesn't commit war crimes, promote steroid use, or dictates strategy

The right to vote is protected by the Constitution, Period.

It can not be taken away by a president who is an idiot

The Supreme Court should protect the rule of law

Protecting the law to rule and not us, sticks in our craw

A Congress doesn't remain silent when a president abuses his oath of office

Fear of his retribution is no excuse for Congress to remain cautious

Democracy doesn't work when our representatives refuse to do their jobs

We pay their salaries to represent us not to be childish, impudent slobs

Trump's doomsday clock is ticking and election day is near

No amount of interference will stop us from voting, which we hold dear

The more Trump whines about election fraud, the more he shows his fear

Donald Trump and the Republican party are on the ballot this year

The reign of corruption has not gone unnoticed from the public

We see and hear everything because we love our Constitutional Republic

Good detective work, Scott! I am believing in my heart that my fellow Michiganders will come through for the common good and elect Dr. Abdul. Rogers is just too sketch in a lot of ways and I think people know it.
