There is no excuse for inflating your experiences or overstating what you've done, even in a tough campaign. New reporting shows that @MikeRogersForMIโ€™s claim that he "built the Chrysler Lebaron on the assembly line" is not true. Michigan's auto workers are the best in the world, and stretching the truth to associate yourself with their experience is exactly why Michiganders can't stand politicians. But this is now part of a repeated trend. Last month, Mike claimed that he โ€œsaw Osama bin Laden's dead body.โ€ That is easily disprovable. He has further claimed that he "hunted terrorists." That is just straight false. Mike served in the FBI from 1989-1994, where he worked on domestic crime. He was in Congress on 9/11 and any hunting of terrorists he did during the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq were from the safety of his Capitol Hill office. Any insinuation otherwise is an insult to the men and women in the military and intelligence community who carried out dangerous missions and risked their lives to go after terrorists. michiganadvance.com/2026/09/โ€ฆ

Protestors, including veterans in Tom Barrettโ€™s district, are rallying right now over brutal gas prices and blaming the policies his party backed. In MI-07, the affordability debate hasnโ€™t been abstract for a while. And itโ€™s staring voters in the face at the pump.

Hereโ€™s video of Mike Rogers claiming to have built Chrysler Sebrings. The model did not exist until after he was already a state senator. Furthermore, he claimed to have built LeBarons. The LeBaron was built in the Jefferson Avenue Assembly plant, where he also never worked. Mike Rogers is a fraud.
For the record, I worked at Cars and Concepts in 1981 and 1982โ€“which Michigan Advance reports. @UAW leadership is so scared that they endorsed the wrong guy that now they are telling every Michigan factory worker who didnโ€™t work for the Big 3: YOU didnโ€™t work in the auto industry. Never mind the fact that Abdul has never worked a manufacturing job in his life. I will be a Senator for Michigan. Abdul would be a Senator for Palestine. @UAW leadership should be ashamed of themselves.

So John James not only is voting formal the illegal war six times but heโ€™s cozy up to Flock CEOs and taking their money. This man has no situational awareness. ๐Ÿ‘‡
NEW: As Michigan communities move to disable or dump Flock cameras, John James raised money at a Washington fundraiser hosted entirely by senior figures at BGR Group, which has been paid $590,000 to lobby for Flock Safety. James won't comment. metrotimes.com/news/john-jamโ€ฆ
