New York Times: Mike Rogers Prioritizes "Loyalty to Trump" After Trump Convinced Him To Run for Senate a Second Time
Rogers' shift towards total fealty to Trump over Michiganders clear as he pushes election denialism claims he used to condemn
-
Breaking reporting from The New York Times reveals that corrupt multimillionaire Mike Rogers is prioritizing "loyalty to Trump" after "Trump convinced him to get back on the campaign trail," including pushing false claims of stolen elections that heused to condemn.
According to The New York Times, Rogers said at a campaign event that he decided to run again only after "The president called and said, 'Mike, I need you to do this. I need you in the Senate.'" Since then, Rogers has done Trump's bidding at the expense of Michiganders, including suggesting that "further scrutiny of the 2020 election was warranted" and "voting irregularities sank his first Senate bid two years ago," while pledging to rubber stamp all of Trump's cost-raising policies.

New York Times: Michigan Senate Candidate, a Former Trump Critic, Shifts Toward Election Skepticism
* [A]s he aims to return to Washington, in a Senate race considered key to control of that chamber, Mr. Rogers has become an election skeptic. Minutes after the president's recent speech filled with outlandish accusations about voting fraud -- including a debunked claim about Michigan ballots -- Mr. Rogers weighed in, suggesting that further scrutiny of the election was warranted.
* "I am thankful for President Trump's commitment to transparency," Mr. Rogers said on his social media accounts. "The news coming out of the White House tonight is deeply troubling -- especially that of a voter fraud scheme right here in Michigan."
* Mr. Rogers has also suggested that voting irregularities sank his Senate bid two years ago -- based on an unproven claim about late-arriving Detroit ballots that Mr. Trump has amplified and that echoed accusations made by election deniers in 2020.
* [...] "Now he's toeing the MAGA line," said former Representative Fred Upton, a Michigan Republican who served with Mr. Rogers in the House and calls him a friend. "I don't want to speculate on his motives for talking about the 2020 election, but that election is over. The 2024 election is over."
* [...] Mr. Rogers's campaign did not provide any evidence to back up his claim about his 2024 defeat.
* Mr. Rogers now faces the newly minted Democratic nominee, Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, a former public health official from the left wing of his party, in the November election. Mr. Trump said earlier this week that Dr. El-Sayed had "a real shot" in a state he claimed was riddled with voter fraud. "Get ready for another Rigged Election," he said.
* [...] The editorial board of The Detroit Free Press reported in June 2024 that when it asked the Senate candidate whether Mr. Biden won the 2020 election, he refused to answer -- a sign of Mr. Rogers's newfound loyalty to Mr. Trump.
* Mr. Rogers won the primary two months later but narrowly lost to Elissa Slotkin, a Democrat, even as Mr. Trump carried the state. Weeks later, an aide to the president-elect quashed speculation that Mr. Rogers was under consideration for F.B.I. director amid a backlash from MAGA influencers, who saw the former intelligence official who had worked for CNN as part of the loathed "deep state."
* But after Senator Gary Peters, a Michigan Democrat, announced his retirement in January 2025, Mr. Rogers said Mr. Trump convinced him to get back on the campaign trail.
* "The president called and said, 'Mike, I need you to do this. I need you in the Senate, and here's the only thing I'm going to ask you: win,'" Mr. Rogers told a Republican group in Muskegon, Mich., in October 2025, according to video reviewed by The Times.
* At that same event, Mr. Rogers cast doubt on the legitimacy of Ms. Slotkin's victory, referring to a van carrying ballots that "showed up" in Detroit the morning after the election. He gave the same account at another event earlier that month and said those ballots had "swung the election." His comments about the van were previously reported by The Detroit News.
* "Mike Rogers knows better," said Christopher Thomas, who served as Michigan's elections director for more than three decades before becoming an adviser to voting officials in Detroit. "Mike Rogers knows no one stole the election from him in 2024, and he knows full well no one stole the election from Trump in 2020."
* This year, Mr. Rogers is running not just with the president's endorsement but also with the help of many of his closest associates. His current campaign team includes Chris LaCivita, a co-manager of Mr. Trump's 2024 campaign; Katie Walsh Shields, Mr. Trump's former deputy chief of staff; and Tony Fabrizio, a pollster and senior adviser to the president.
* [...] Linda Lee Tarver, a Republican activist in Michigan who backed Mr. Trump's attempt to overturn the 2020 election, said she did not blame Mr. Rogers for opposing those efforts six years ago. "He didn't have all the information," she said. Ms. Tarver also suggested that Mr. Rogers's view of that vote might have changed after his loss in the 2024 Senate race.
* "We know in our hearts that he won," said Ms. Tarver, who is serving on Mr. Rogers's campaign coalition of religious leaders. "Tell me, how would you feel about losing by 19,000 votes in a state with illegal voting? That had to have changed his view."
* [...] Mr. Trump remains fixated on voting fraud and has seized on Mr. Rogers's claim about his defeat in the 2024 Senate race. In a speech to the Detroit Economic Club in January, the president asserted Mr. Rogers "won" a Senate seat two years ago and said, "I think they took that away from you last time."
* "They rigged the election on you," he added.
* Mr. Rogers posted the president's remarks on X and featured them in a fund-raising appeal.
* When the two men campaigned together last month in Michigan, Mr. Trump said, "I happen to think he won last time."
* [...] Mr. Trump then called up John James, a Republican candidate for governor, to the stage. "Thank you Mr. President for coming back to Michigan, where you've won three times," Mr. James said. (Mr. Trump carried the state in 2016 and 2024 but lost in 2020.)
* Mr. Rogers stood to Mr. James's right, his hands clasped.

New Investigation Reveals Kansas Carpetbagger Zach Lahn's Lies About His Iowa Residency
New investigative reporting from The Daily Beast reveals that Zach Lahn has been living in a mansion in Kansas for years and has taken great lengths to hide his residency from voters. According to the report, Lahn transferred his Wichita property "to an LLC in what appeared to be a move meant to hide his ownership-and true residency-as he planned to run for governor" in Iowa, hundreds of miles away.
The Daily Beastalso found that Lahn has "never claimed any property in Iowa as his primary residence", noting that when Lahn refinanced his Iowa property in 2021, he "waived the Iowa Homestead Tax Credit, a sign that they do not consider the Iowa property to be their primary home."
Lahn's flight records reveal that "he regularly flies in and out of Wichita to attend [campaign events]" in Iowa, including a flight "to Des Moines to submit his paperwork for his nomination at the State Capitol."
This bombshell reporting comes after new polling in Iowa found that 76 percent of respondents believe that it is important for a gubernatorial candidate to have lived in Iowa for most of their adult life.
The Daily Beast (https://www.thedailybeast.com/maga-iowa-gov-candidate-zach-lahn-busted-living-in-luxury-out-of-state/): MAGA Gov Candidate Busted Living in Luxury Out of State
* A MAGA governor hopeful has secretly been living in a multimillion-dollar mansion hundreds of miles away from the state he wants to run, contradicting his humble farmer claims.
* Zach Lahn, the Trump-endorsed candidate in the Iowa gubernatorial race, has actually been living in Kansas for years, in a $2 million mansion, not in Iowa as he claims, a Daily Beast investigation can reveal.
* In 2024, Lahn and his wife Annie, the ex-daughter-in-law of billionaire donor Charles Koch, purchased their Wichita property, which he later transferred to an LLC in what appeared to be a move meant to hide his ownership--and true residency--as he planned to run for governor a few states over.
* Lahn also owns property in Iowa, having bought his great-grandmother's farm in his hometown of Belle Plaine, but there does not appear to be any indication that he treats this as a primary residence.
* Records reviewed by the Daily Beast indicate that he has never claimed any property in Iowa as his primary residence. When he refinanced the Iowa property in 2021, he and Annie waived the Iowa Homestead Tax Credit, a sign that they do not consider the Iowa property to be their primary home.
* Flight records also reveal that while Lahn, a licensed pilot who owns his own plane, travels to and from campaign events, he regularly flies in and out of Wichita to attend those events.
* These flights include his trip from Wichita to his "hometown" in June for a campaign event. He even flew from Wichita to Des Moines to submit his paperwork for his nomination at the State Capitol.
* Voting records also show that Lahn has voted in Kansas elections in the 2018, 2020 and 2022 cycles.
* Lahn, a graduate of the University of Colorado, worked for years in Republican politics in Colorado and Montana in his early adult life.
* Before getting married, [Lahn and his wife] co-founded and still sit on the board of the Wonder School, an unorthodox, for-profit K-12 school in Wichita that boasts that it "doesn't hire teachers." Tuition currently costs $10,000 a year, and after graduation, only about a third of students go on to attend a 4-year college.
* In addition to his luxury mansion in Kansas, Lahn sold his multimillion-dollar mansion in Whitefish, Montana in October. The house, which was valued just under $5 million dollars last year, was described online as a "ski-in, ski-out mansion" that came equipped with an outdoor spa and hot tub. He still owns a plot of land on the same road.
* But with his apparent strong roots in Kansas and Montana, it remains unclear why Lahn chose Iowa to launch his political career.
* As it relates to the carpetbagging accusations, a recent poll from Emerson College found that 76 percent of Iowa voters said it is important that a candidate has lived in the state for most of their adult life.

Ahead of the Midterms, Trump and Republicans Face Historically Low Approval Ratings on the Economy
FIRST: Donald Trump promised to "end inflation" and lower prices on "Day One."
Trump in 2024: "Starting on day one, we will end inflation and make America affordable again, to bring down the prices of all goods."
THEN: Trump started a reckless trade war and a deadly and costly war with Iran, driving up prices on everything from groceries to gas to housing.
Prices overall are up 3.7% comparedto last year, as Trump's war with Iran is projected to cost American taxpayers as much as $100 billion and consumers nearly $150 billion -- approximately $1,100 per household since the war started. Americans have already spent $60 billion more on gas since the start of the war. To top it off, Americans are struggling in a historically unaffordable housing market, as existing home prices are up 54% since 2020 and are nearly five times median incomes.
As prices continue to climb, Trump's job market is also in the gutter. The July jobs report revealed that the economy shed 23,000 jobs in July, and numbers for May and June were sharply revised down by a combined -103,000 jobs.
NOW: Trump and Republicans are facing historically low approval ratings as voters increasingly disapprove of their handling of the economy.
New reporting reveals that Republicans are losing their edge with voters on the economy, as Americans overwhelmingly disapprove of Trump's economic agenda. Multiple polls show that voters now trust Democrats more than Republicans on the economy, including one survey showing Democrats up nine points.
In response, DNC Rapid Response Director Kendall Witmer released the following statement:
"Donald Trump's tariffs and his war with Iran sent prices skyrocketing -- it's no wonder voters are fed up: Trump promised to lower prices on 'Day One,' and instead drove costs through the roof. Working families are pinching pennies as they struggle to keep up with high prices of gas, groceries, and medicine -- and Trump can't be bothered to lift a finger to help them. In Trump's economy, it's billionaires and big corporations who reap the rewards of Trump's presidency, while everyday Americans are left in the dust."
