Oregon Democrats Hold Protest Outside of MAGA Drazan/DeSantis Fundraiser
Sep 26, 2026
Hillsboro, OR -- Today, the Democratic Party of Oregon joined with other grassroots activists to protest the extreme policies of Ron DeSantis and Christine Drazan during their joint fundraising event in Hillsboro.
Drazan, who has been attempting to hide her conservative record, joined MAGA extremist Ron DeSantis for a fundraiser in Hillsboro. The Democratic Party of Oregon was joined by grassroots organizations includingrepresentatives from Latino Network, We The People Tigard, and the Washington County chapter of Indivisible.
Speakers highlighted Drazan and DeSantis's alignment with Trump's MAGA agenda on issues that included immigration and vote-by-mail.
"As Governor, [Ron DeSantis] rolled out the red carpet for ICE in Florida, fast-tracking the construction of 'Alligator Alcatraz,' essentially a concentration camp for ICE victims," said Democratic Party of Oregon Chair Nathan Soltz. "This is who Christine Drazan brought to Oregon to stand by her side on the campaign trail this week. And let's not forget, Christine Drazan called the people standing up to Trump's attacks on our immigrant friends, family and neighbors 'violent mobs and domestic terrorists.'"
"When Christine Drazan was in the legislature, she introduced a bill that would have completely overwritten Oregon's vote-by-mail system, and made in-person voting the new default method," said Oregon State Representative Travis Nelson. "Oregon has had safe, reliable vote-by-mail for nearly three decades. The system has been audited by Republican and Democratic Secretaries of State, with no evidence of widespread voter fraud."

Democrat Candidate Caught Lying About Opponent OverTax Hikes
Townhall
Jeff Charles
September 24, 2026
Democrat Rep. Laura Gillen (NY-4) is hoping to win reelection by brazenly lying about her Republican opponent, Town of Hempstead Receiver of Taxes Jeanine Driscoll.
Gillen released an attack ad against Driscoll last week in which she falsely claimed her opponent raised taxes in her town.
[...]
This isn't the first time Gillen made this fallacious claim. Back in August, her campaign sent out mailers blaming Driscoll for higher taxes. But she was quickly debunked when others pointed out that Driscoll's position does not give her control over tax rates in the town.
[...]
Driscoll slammed Gillen over the lie, noting that "trying to blame me for tax hikes is like demanding a tax cut from the IRS administrator -- I collect the bills, I don't set the rates."
The candidate added, "If voters want to hold someone accountable for higher taxes, they should look at the only person in this race who actually voted to hike them: Laura Gillen."
And this is the crux of the matter.
Gillen's record provides an idea of why she is falsely claiming her opponent raised taxes. The reality is that Gillen voted twice against a bill that would reduce New Yorkers' tax burdens.
[...]
National Republican Congressional Committee spokeswoman slammed Gillen for lying about her opponent. "News flash for Laura Gillen: Repeating the same debunked lie doesn't make it true! Gillen knows her record of voting to hike taxes and against increasing the SALT deduction is damning, but no desperate spin can change the facts," she told Townhall. "Long Islanders will vote this pathological liar out in November."

Would Ron Schutz Defend Minnesota Gun Laws from Trump's DOJ?

-
ST. PAUL -- Yesterday afternoon, Trump's Department of Justice (DOJ) sued Minnesota, challenging the state's 30-day waiting period to purchase a firearm for those without a permit to carry. Attorney General Ellison has committed to defending Minnesota's gun safety laws, and voters should know: would RonSchutz do the same?
The Attorney General is responsible for defending state laws, but can refuse to do so if they believe the law is unconstitutional. With nobody to actually defend Minnesota's gun safety laws, it would be far easier for courts to strike them down.
Thus far, Schutz has refused to weigh in on any lawsuits the state of Minnesota has been forced to file against the Trump administration. Schutz's recent dodge on the question is one for the record books. Schutz has also criticized other common-sense gun safety laws in Minnesota. Voters deserve to know whether Schutz is too scared of Trump to take a stand in defense of gun safety laws.
Minnesota's waiting period is important because it gives police chiefs and sheriffs time to determine whether the purchaser poses a danger to themselves or others, whether they are prohibited from owning a gun, or whether they're in the state's gang investigative database.
"Minnesotans are deeply concerned about gun violence, especially now that Trump's federal government is attacking our gun safety laws," said DFL Party Chair Richard Carlbom. "Voters deserve to know whether Schutz would actually step up to defend state gun safety laws, or whether he would roll over for Trump and make our state less safe. Time after time, Schutz has refused to answer even the most basic questions about what he'd actually do as attorney general, and enough is enough. Fortunately, Minnesotans know that Keith Ellison will continue to do everything in his power to protect us from gun violence."

NEW: Mike Rogers "Praised The Iran War" From The Start, But "Now Campaigns Against The Pain It Caused" [CNN / KFILE]
LANSING -- Breaking reporting from CNN's KFILE exposes how Mike Rogers has given his full-throated support for the Iran War from the beginning. But now, in an eleventh-hour election pivot, Rogers is trying to "campaign against the pain it caused."
CNN reports that Rogers "consistently supported President Donald Trump's decision to attack Iran" from the verystart of the war, calling it "long overdue," "the best opportunity for peace in the Middle East I think I've ever seen in my lifetime," and "the right thing to do," while repeatedly predicting over the course of months that the war would be over "soon."
According to KFILE's investigation, Rogers argued in March that "Americans should unite behind the military operation against Iran and 'get it done right' before debating whether the intervention was wise," saying there "shouldn't be a date" when the war should definitively end.
In July, while Michigan gas prices were still skyrocketing, Rogers "supported giving Trump more time on the war," saying "I don't mind giving the president authority to continue [the Iran war]. You can't stop in mid-negotiation. I think that would not be good for America."

CNN / KFILE: Michigan GOP Senate candidate who praised the Iran war now campaigns against the pain it caused
* In 2024, then-Michigan Senate candidate Mike Rogers stood on camera in a zippered vest in a large grocery store.
* "This is your grocery cart under a Trump economy," Rogers said in the 13-second video, pointing to a normal-sized grocery cart. Rogers then pulled out a toddler-sized cart next to it: "This is your grocery cart under a Biden-Harris economy. Take note, in November."
* Two years later, Rogers is again running for Senate in Michigan as a Republican, and again running ads from grocery stores. Clad in a near identical outfit, in what appears to be the same grocery store chain, Rogers opens a new campaign ad by saying bluntly, "Groceries cost too much. We have to bring prices down."
* The ad underscores the trouble Republicans face as they campaign to fix the affordability crisis worsened by the war. It also marks a notable shift in tone for Rogers, who has consistently supported President Donald Trump's decision to attack Iran and whose national security background and hawkish foreign policy views have long been a central part of his political identity.
* In the weeks and months after the war began on February 28, Rogers spoke in favor of Trump's decision and called the war "long overdue." In April, he said the war had left Iran "absolutely a toothless wonder" and called it "the best opportunity for peace in the Middle East I think I've ever seen in my lifetime" during an appearance on CNN contributor Scott Jennings' radio show.
* And in continued interviews on conservative talk radio in March through July, Rogers consistently defended the war and argued the United States should continue its effort against Iran, according to a CNN KFile review of his statements.
* Rogers's new ad comes just six weeks before he faces Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed, who has strongly condemned the war. Recent polling also indicates the war has become deeply unpopular with Americans. A new CNN poll conducted by SSRS found that nearly two-thirds of respondents said the US is not winning the conflict, and more than three-quarters said the war is not worth it.
* [...] Rogers was quick to come out in support of Trump's decision to attack Iran in February.
* He publicly backed the military action on the day it began, calling Iran an "imminent threat to our country" that "must not have a nuclear weapon" in a post on X.
* A month later on a podcast from March, Rogers argued Americans should unite behind the military operation against Iran and "get it done right" before debating whether the intervention was wise.
* "People say, well, 'what date is it going to end?' It shouldn't be a date. It should be conditional," Rogers said on the Joe Pags Show podcast. "When can they no longer mine the Straits of Hormuz? When can they no longer send drones into the side of commercial ships, which they have been doing, threatened to do and did before? ...This is why Americans need to stop for a minute, come together and say, 'let's get this done, get it done right.'"
* By April, Rogers suggested the war would be over soon.
* "We're not going to do this forever. I think this is the right thing to do. I do think it will be over quickly because the military piece of this, they're getting down to the last targets," he said on The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show in April.
* In May, Rogers acknowledged the war's economic costs, saying on a conservative podcast that the "Iran issue has caused gas prices go up" and that "hurts everybody." But he also maintained his support for the war's rationale, saying, "I also support the fact that Iran should not have a nuclear weapon."
* In July, Rogers emphasized that he wanted the war to wrap up, telling the Fox News Rundown podcast, "I want it over as fast as possible. I want the president to do the kind of actions he needs to do to get it done as soon as possible so we can get those prices coming back down."
* By the end of that month, however, Rogers said that he supported giving Trump more time on the war to finish negotiations: "I don't mind giving the president authority to continue. You can't stop in mid-negotiation. I think that would not be good for America," Rogers told CBS Detroit in a TV interview.

BREAKING: "Mike Rogers Claims He Was An Assembly Line Worker. The UAW Said That Is Stretching The Truth." [Michigan Advance]
LANSING -- According to damning new reporting from Michigan Advance, Mike Rogers stretched the truth when he repeatedly claimed he worked on a car assembly line. The truth is that he did not build cars or work on an assembly line - prompting the UAW to draw comparisons to "stolen valor."
While running for Senate, Rogers has consistently claimed he"worked in an automotive factory," where he "built" vehicles on an "assembly line." But the UAW and Michigan Advance's investigation found Rogers is "greatly inflating his experience" to mislead Michiganders: The facility where Rogers claims he worked did not build cars, nor did it have an assembly line; and the Chrysler Sebring he claims to have built wasn't manufactured until 1995 - more than a decade after Rogers allegedly worked there.
The assembly line claim represents a new addition to Rogers' biography. As Art Reyes II, former president of UAW Local 651, put it: "If you did not do time in the plant, that's fine, but don't act as if you had, and don't talk to Michiganders about something which millions of us over the generations have experienced, have made careers of, have raised families on because of the collective bargaining power of the UAW."

Michigan Advance: Mike Rogers claims he was an assembly line worker. The UAW said that is stretching the truth.
* As Republican Mike Rogers makes his case to voters in Michigan's high-stakes U.S. Senate race against Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed, he's relied on his record as a federal law enforcement agent, his national intelligence expertise and his image as an every-day working man turned lawmaker.
* But one claim he's made on the campaign doesn't appear to hold water for the United Auto Workers -- his insistence that he worked in an automotive factory during his stint at Adrian College between 1981 and 1982. The UAW formally endorsed El-Sayed in June.
* In advertisements, campaign interviews and in messaging to voters, Rogers claimed several times that he either worked in a factory, an automotive shop or an assembly line where he built Chrysler LeBarons.
* Research done by Michigan Advance and interviews with a member of the United Auto Workers shows that while Rogers never worked for one of the Big Three automakers during his college years, and that he never worked on an automotive assembly line building one of Chrysler's most well known vehicles -- the LeBaron -- Rogers did work at Cars & Concepts in Brighton, Michigan, between 1981 and 1982.
* The Cars & Concepts facility, a large company in Brighton founded by former U.S. Rep. Dick Chrysler, did custom work on vehicles after they were already built on a Chrysler assembly line and shipped to Brighton for additional, after-market parts.
* The campaign also said that he worked for a period of time at Thermofil, in Fowlerville, where he was a line mixer. The campaign said he made materials that were used for dashboards, but did not indicate when he worked at Thermofil.
* Although Cars & Concepts was not an assembly line owned by one of the Big Three automakers, it was known in the auto industry as a speciality engineering, design and aftermarket parts facility. According to historical photos and museum entries, Cars & Concepts was more akin to a mechanic or body shop, but Rogers' team insisted, when asked by Michigan Advance, that the facility did have an assembly line type facility.
* Cars & Concepts is no longer in operation.
* The facility was not building the LeBaron, either, but rather modifying already-assembled vehicles into convertibles with removable sunroofs -- a part that Cars & Concepts was known for and well suited to produce and add on.
* In that way, the UAW said that Rogers was greatly inflating his experience as an assembly line worker on the campaign trail.
* "He never claimed that he worked in an automotive factory when we were lobbying him at the beginning of the early 2000s," said Art Reyes II, former president of UAW Local 651, serving Delphi plants in Flint, who was provided to the Advance for an interview when it asked UAW for a comment on this story. "He has tried to campaign as a champion of the auto worker when, in fact, he has no concept nor respect for the work that we do." Reyes is president of the UAW Region 1-D Greater Flint Community Action Program (CAP) Council and also serves as a trustee for Mott Community College.
* The UAW, in a separate statement, also told the Advance that "the record for Mike Rogers that we are familiar with is his record in Congress, where he supported bad trade deals that cost Michigan autoworkers good union jobs."
* Rogers' claim that he "built" LeBarons at the facility is further refuted by the fact that the LeBaron, when it was being built in Michigan, was built at Detroit's former Jefferson Avenue Assembly facility up until 1975, when the Imperial LeBaron was discontinued, and at the Hamtramck plant up until 1981, said a historian with Stellantis when the Advance asked about the LeBaron's production history. Stellantis is now the parent company of Chrysler.
* Later year LeBaron production occurred in Delaware, Missouri, and other nations like Mexico and Venezuela, but the LeBaron GTS was produced at Sterling Heights Assembly in 1984.
* Adrian College is in Lenawee County, and the UAW has no record of a Chrysler assembly plant building the vehicles in the county. Cars & Concepts is located in Livingston County, where Rogers' campaign said he worked and grew up.
* While what Cars & Concepts did was an important step toward creating the LeBaron convertible product for customers, Reyes told the Advance that it was a far cry from an assembly line, an auto-parts factory or a parts supplier that the Big Three work with to produce vehicles along the designated supply chain -- nor would the companies be shipping partially-produced vehicles to those shops for vehicle completion.
* "In an original equipment manufacturing sense, no," Reyes said. "The likelihood is that would not have been the case. Aftermarket stuff, there were a lot of specialty shops that General Motors or any of the American Three would do, but they were not partially building the LeBaron in the plant, then sending it out to be finished."
* When Rogers was endorsed by "Autoworkers For Trump," he mentioned in a news release that he had worked in two different auto factory facilities and understood the "blood, sweat and tears" of Michigan's auto workers.
* That appears to be a new aspect of his campaign pitch, starting during his 2024 U.S. Senate campaign against current U.S. Sen. Elissa Slotkin.
* At a Michigan rally featuring President Donald Trump in September 2024, Rogers told the audience that he worked in a car factory -- his first mention of the claim. But instead of building LeBarons, Rogers said he was building the Sebring Convertible, another Chrysler vehicle.
* Of note, the Sebring replaced the LeBaron in the Chrysler manufacturer lineup -- but not until 1995, according to J.D. Power. By then, Rogers was already a Michigan state Senator, well out of college and past his time as both a member of the U.S. Army and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
* While it's possible that Rogers confused the two vehicles, the LeBaron wasn't being built in any facility in Michigan when Rogers worked at Cars & Concepts.
* That same month, speaking to Republicans voters and donors, Rogers again said he worked in a car factory.
* "We always had to work," Rogers said. "Obviously I worked in a car factory, put myself through school. That was a deal, as well. They'd helped where they could, but with five boys, they're not being able to write a check, but it was the best thing they ever gave me. So I worked in that car factory."
* His claim became a fixture in that campaign across a few more Trump rallies and interviews, like one Rogers did with The Tony Conley Show in July 2024. It also started appearing in campaign ads.
* "I'm Mike Rogers. Slotkin's for EV mandates," Rogers said in an ad released in September 2024. "I'm for Michigan. I worked in a car factory. These jobs are important to our families."
* Rogers maintained that he was an automotive assembly line worker even into 2025, well after losing his race to Slotkin the year prior.
* In an interview with Breitbart News in 2025, Rogers again claimed that he worked on an auto factory floor making Sebring convertibles -- which would have been impossible considering the Sebring wasn't manufactured until well after Rogers had attended Adrian College, joined the military, worked in law enforcement and was a sitting member of the state Legislature.
* Rogers again spoke of his "factory" experience during a September 2025 rally in Howell featuring Vice President JD Vance. Rogers told the audience that he specifically worked on an auto assembly line, and that those vehicles were Sebrings, not LeBarons.
* "And when you think about my time on the assembly line, I worked in two different assembly lines, one that built Chrysler, Sebring, convertibles," Rogers told the crowd. "Those are great cars. And if you got one that wasn't, I didn't build that one. I worked in a plant that made the materials to go that went into dashboards and parts. They were phenomenal jobs."
* Cars & Concepts did manufacture trim and additional fixtures, like shifters, to create more luxury looking vehicles, but that work in 1981 and 1982 was for the LeBaron.
* The claim resurfaced during the 2026 campaign Rogers is currently waging.
* Rogers said in an interview with Albanian TV of America that he "started out working on a car assembly line. I built Chrysler convertibles, the LeBaron."
* In July 2026, Rogers' wife, Kristi, who has become a trusted campaign surrogate, said in a campaign ad that, "Mike worked in a factory. I worked at Burger King. Both our parents were teachers. It's the middle class."
* When the Advance had asked Rogers what his experience was in the auto industry, the campaign at first said it was at Cars & Concepts. When fact checking this story, the campaign then said that he worked at a second facility. Before Michigan Advance published this piece, the Rogers campaign said he also worked at Thermofil, but did not provide dates for when he worked with the company, when asked a third time.
* When asked, Rogers' team asserted that his autowork experience came solely from Cars & Concepts and Thermofil. The assertion does not square up with what Reyes told the Advance he and other fellow autoworkers would consider actual automotive assembly line or parts manufacturing experience.
* Reyes, who also served in the military, said he doesn't doubt that Rogers served in the military because he speaks about his experience in the U.S. Army in a way that only someone who served can. That was not the case in terms of automotive experience, Reyes added, and likened Rogers' claims as "stolen valor" from the auto industry.
* "It's insulting to my brethren who have spent their lives chasing the chain, whether it's an assembly plant or a parts plant, sequencing, packaging, whatever it is; the supply chain of the automotive industry," he said. "If you did not do time in the plant, that's fine, but don't act as if you had, and don't talk to Michiganders about something which millions of us over the generations have experienced, have made careers of, have raised families on because of the collective bargaining power of the UAW."

BREAKING: SCOTUS Allows Trump Administration to Access Sensitive Voter Data, Opening the Door to More Voter Intimidation and Suppression
Today, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling to allow the Trump administration to move forward with an error-ridden online system that would allow them to combine data across the federal government and make last-ditch attempts to intimidate and purge eligible voters.
In response, DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:
"Today'sSupreme Court ruling is an outright attack on the sacred right to vote, undermines critical privacy protections, and will lead to demands to purge eligible voters from the rolls. It is clear that Donald Trump and Republicans are in panic mode as the American people head to the ballot box to hold them accountable for their reckless agenda, which has made life unaffordable for working families. That is why Trump and his lackeys are doing everything they can to suppress the vote -- from redrawing district lines and attacking voting rights to purging eligible voters and spreading debunked conspiracy theories.
"With less than 40 days until the midterm elections, Democrats remain committed to our tireless work of protecting voting rights across the country, fighting back against Republicans' desperate attacks on free and fair elections, and ensuring every voter can make their voice heard this November and beyond."
