NEW VIDEO: “We’re All Trying to Find the Guy Who Did This!”
Hint: It Was Mike Rogers
MICHIGAN – Today, the Abdul for Senate campaign released a new video highlighting the role that Mike Rogers played in creating the very problems he now claims to campaign against.
WHO GAVE US OUR HIGH PRESCRIPTION DRUG COSTS? MIKE ROGERS.
In an advertisement released by the Rogers’ campaign earlier this month, Rogers appeared puzzled by the fact that prescription drugs cost less in Canada than they do in the United States. Hey Mike, you might want to check your own voting record!
During his years in Congress, Rogers repeatedly sided with the pharmaceutical industry against efforts aimed at lowering American’s prescription drug costs:
- Rogers voted against legislation that would have allowed prescription drugs to be reimported from foreign countries like Canada, lowering costs for Americans.
- Rogers repeatedly voted against allowing Medicare to negotiate lower prescription drug prices. Rogers has said he is “passionately against” the policy and dismissed it as “sugar high politics.”
- While Rogers opposed those efforts, the pharmaceutical and health products industry poured mountains of cash into his political operation. According to the Michigan Independent, Rogers’ campaigns and political action committee have received more than $1 million from the industry since 1999.
WHO GOT US INTO THE WAR WITH IRAN? MIKE ROGERS.
Mike Rogers has recently claimed to be against his puppet master Donald Trump’s illegal war with Iran. Hey Mike, who wanted us to go to war with Iran in the first place?
Mike Rogers spent over two decades advocating for forever wars in the Middle East and has spent his entire campaign as a vocal advocate for Trump’s war in Iran:
- Mike Rogers referred to the war with Iran as a “win-win-win.”
- In the weeks and months after the war began, Mike Rogers spoke in favor of Trump’s decision and called the war “long overdue.”
- After Trump’s first illegal attack on Iran, Rogers stated that he “was for all of this when it wasn’t very cool to be for all of this.”
WHO STANDS TO PROFIT OFF OF UNREGULATED AI EXPANSION? MIKE ROGERS.
A seven-figure advertising campaign boosting Mike Rogers states that he will make “AI safety a top priority.” Hey Mike, who has millions invested in companies that stand to cash in on the AI boom and massive data center expansion?
Mike Rogers holds up to millions of dollars in AI-related investments and companies that stand to profit off of data center expansion.
- Mike Rogers dismissed Michiganders’ concerns about AI as “fearmongering.”
- When asked about data centers, Mike Rogers stated that “the choice is simple: lead the charge or fall behind,” and pushed to fast-track their permitting.
High prescription drug costs, an illegal war with Iran, AI taking Michiganders’ jobs… We’re all trying to find the guy who did this!
