Michigan Jewish Dems circulate letter endorsing Republican Mike Rogers for Senate
9 hours ago by Florencia (she/her) to c/politics
Jewish leaders in Michigan are circulating an open letter urging Jewish Democrats and independents in the battleground state to sign their names in support of former Rep. Mike Rogers (R-MI) as he faces Abdul El-Sayed, the far-left Democratic nominee for Senate whose hostile positions on Israel have alarmed many Jewish voters.
The letter, which was obtained by Jewish Insider on Wednesday and has not yet been publicized, is led by Eric Bronstein, a Detroit businessman, among others identifying as Democrats and independents.
It came to light after a fundraiser for Rogers on Tuesday night hosted by three prominent Jewish Democratic bundlers in Michigan who are likewise alarmed by El-Sayed’s candidacy. The growing efforts among Jewish Democrats to rally support for Rogers in the key Senate race illustrate the degree to which El-Sayed has alienated a sizable and politically active swing voting bloc in what is expected to be a close election.
No pretending going on here. For a lot of establishment Democrats this has been standard operating procedure. We absolutely need to change what a Democrat is and make it not include people like them though. And the fact they're reacting like this. Indicates that they know just how painfully vulnerable they are now that the DSA is directly targeting them and not just running third party.
Even more accurate would be Michigan Zionists. Don't let them get away with pretending this is about Judaism. Its about denying the liberation of the Palestinian people and continuing the ongoing oppression and genocide.
No, the title is accurate. There are a bunch of people that I've run into that flat out said if the DSA candidate for governor on my state won, they'd vote Republican.
Some people here in the Midwest have IQs that rival the average temp, it fucking sucks to hear that they'd rather support the people murdering people in the street over a DSA candidate.
Well, being disingenuous with literally ever fucking word they speak has worked wonders for Republicans. Turns out to be an effective technique for Corporate and Zionist Democrats too. It's almost like a class war or something.
Well, not THAT blue.
Dumbasses. Mike Rogers would run the gas chambers if Trump wanted him to.
Israel....El-Sayed isn't supporting Israel.... that's why these Zionist are wanting to have their followers vote for the GOP...
You lost me at "far-left".
I like (not really) how Mike Rogers is described in the mildest manner but Sayed is described in boogeyman terms.
And he "alienated" the genocide lovers. Mild criticism that's fully in line with the mainstream Democratic voter alienated these special babies that must be coddled by the rest of the party.
There was never any doubt, the moderates will try to sabotage progressives in the general election.
Their main purpose is not to beat republicans and keep them out of office, it's to keep control of the party.
As always, the "moderates" are weaponizing jewish people to keep control. Fuck you Starmer by the way you fucking cunt.
Traitors
It's pretty crazy how the verbiage for the article clearly has a bias. Well I guess not crazy, but it's obvious.
Stop Reading Jewish Insider as Straight News
From J-Street, itself a pro-Israel organization (albeit a less genocidal Israel).
... as he faces Abdul El-Sayed, the far-left Democratic nominee...
P.S. It seems this GIF is large portion of my replies lately yet is perfectly appropriate each time.
It's giving me a headache, unfortunately.
“Dems” don’t back fascism. Clearly they’re cunts
edit: sorry, autocorrect - republicans
I think the people of Michigan REALLY need to not underestimate the power of influence Israel, racism, the new Red Scare and Islamophobia have in this race.
Countless old fucks and Zionist Dem voters, as well as simply racist Dems are gonna jump ship, or at least refuse to turn out.
Don't get too comfortable in this race, nor others. Remember, even a close race that ends in victory is ripe for Trump and his goons to steal.
I’m proud to say that my son and I are doing our part. I will not relent in my continued condemnation of the apartheid state of Israel. We both voted in the primary, and almost all of my picks got through. I asked him a few days after the results were announced how he voted, stressing to him that he does NOT have to reveal that to anyone, even me, but that I was just curious. Without skipping a beat, he mentioned how our man destroyed Haley and the $30 million dollar infusion by a foreign state.
None of them should ever be involved in anything with a "D" in its name without someone standing up and reminding them about the time they endorsed MAGA.
This shit is bananas because I never hear the left say anything anti-Semitic.
But, i just saw a Trump supporter who was mad about Flock blame Jews for Flock.
Soooooooo yeah. The call is coming from inside the house.
Netanyahu, is that you?
Yes, it seems Jews are worried about antisemitism permeating leftism.
What will the response of leftists be?
It will likely involve hating Jews.
Sorry killing kids and medics is bad, mmkay
Aren’t you tired of that old chestnut?
These sure sound like Zionists to me. Zionists and those trying to push Zionists love to describe them as just Jewish while policing the Jewishness of Antizionists. It's a propaganda tool, not reality.
The main parties across the west use the jewish community as tools to attack upstarts in their parties and opponents. Not all Jewish people are their tools, Jewish Voices for Peace and the like and all. Bernie Sanders is Jewish too.
The party, and their media, are going to frame it as Jewish because tarring everyone not falling in line with their best fascist friends is an effective tactic because some people (in this case you,) are too, let's say misguided, to not be manipulated by the polits and their media.

I guess this guy is all Jews now, folks.
Pretty fucking gross, dude. Even if it was every Jew, the response should be how did we alienate them, and can the relationship be rehabilitated without compromising our morals? not Welp, Jews bad.
