Mike Rogers Called Trump’s Iran War a ‘Win’ — Michigan Families Are Paying the Bill

I have spent my adult life in uniform. Again and again, I have watched men die for decisions by people who never carried a rifle. So when I see Mike Rogers preening about a war he championed, I feel cold disgust. Rogers is the Republican nominee for the Senate from Michigan. He is also a shameless enabler of Trump’s Iran war. In April 2026, Rogers called that war a historic chance for peace. He called it “the best opportunity for peace in the Middle East I’ve ever seen” and described Iran as “absolutely a toothless wonder.” He called the war…

Mike Rogers Faces Questions Over Personal Attacks in Michigan Senate Race

Republican candidate Mike Rogers is facing growing scrutiny over his campaign rhetoric after denying that he has engaged in personal attacks against his Democratic opponent, Abdul El-Sayed. He delivered his remarks amid an increasingly hostile Michigan Senate race, and those remarks have raised questions about the consistency between his public criticism of political divisiveness and his own approach to the race. Rogers addressed the controversy on October 16 during a luncheon that the Chaldean American Chamber of Commerce hosted at Detroit’s MotorCity Casino. His comments came one day after Vice President JD Vance, speaking at a rally in Monroe, Michigan,…

Scandal: Mike Rogers Mocked Michigan Voters for Worrying About Coffee While Backing Illegal War on Iran

I spent my career in the FBI. There I learned to sit across from a man. The eyes move before the mouth. The details harden where they should soften. Meanwhile, the timeline bends to fit whichever room the subject stands in. I have interrogated men who lied with more discipline than Mike Rogers. Indeed, Rogers has shown that lack of discipline across seven months of this campaign. Most of them kept one version straight for an afternoon. Rogers, however, cannot keep one straight for a news cycle. Yet he wants Michigan to hand him a Senate seat. That seat would…

Hinson’s Iran War U-Turn Draws Criticism as Senate Race Tightens

Growing questions confront Republican Rep. Ashley Hinson of Iowa about her position on the war with Iran after she called for an “immediate end” to the conflict despite repeatedly voting against congressional efforts to halt U.S. hostilities. Hinson, who is running for the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate, made the call last Monday as she highlighted the economic consequences of the war for Iowa residents. In a post on X, she argued that Iowans should not have to absorb the rising costs of the conflict through higher prices at gas stations and grocery stores. Hinson proposed several measures that…

Mike Rogers Breaks with Trump as War Against Iran Drives Up Costs for Michigan Voters

Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers is increasingly trying to distance himself from Donald Trump’s handling of the war in Iran, as rising fuel prices put growing pressure on Republican candidates heading into the November midterm elections. Rogers’ latest call for a rapid end to the war against Iran marks a notable shift from his earlier willingness to give Trump broad authority to continue the conflict. “The war with Iran needs to end, and end quickly,” Rogers said in a campaign video posted on September 21, adding that “Michigan families can’t afford to wait.” He also argued that ending the war…
