Great Lakes Guide — "We Gotta Win Michigan Too"
IT'S BEEN A HELL OF A MONTH, THIS WEEK — And it's just getting started!
On Tuesday, Mike Rogers spoke at the Republican National Convention, with a speech focused on lowering costs for families, stopping the Biden-Slotkin EV mandates, and securing the southern border and our communities. Watch it here.
On Wednesday, Mike joined Fox & Friends live from the set at convention to discuss his speech and Secret Services' critical errors last weekend in Pennsylvania. Watch it here.
On Saturday, President Trump and Senator J.D. Vance will arrive in Grand Rapids for their first rally together, and the first rally since last Saturday's assassination attempt on President Trump.
Republicans are more united now than at any point in recent memory, while Democrats are eating each other alive.
ENDORSEMENT — The Detroit News Editorial Board endorsed Mike Rogers for U.S. Senate!
"Rogers was a very good representative for Michigan when he was in the House. The added experience and knowledge he’s gained from a decade working in the private sector will make him an even better senator.
Republican voters should nominate Mike Rogers for the U.S. Senate race."
IN HER OWN DISTRICT — New polling from Inside Elections shows that Mike Rogers is leading Elissa Slotkin in MI-07, despite Slotkin currently holding the seat. President Trump and House candidate Tom Barrett also lead in the poll, showing down ballot strength for Michigan Republicans.
"Slotkin 'Getting Into Bed' With China" — Elissa Slotkin's wholesale support of Joe Biden's job-killing EV mandates will lead to her defeat in November, but her coziness with Communist China will last forever.
China has become an issue in the Michigan Senate election, one of the most competitive races in the country. Republicans have criticized the planned Gotion battery factory, citing national security risks and concerns that EV mandates will undercut U.S. manufacturing jobs.
OUCH — Last night, The Detroit News opinion contributor called out Slotkin for "sitting on the fence" and hiding behind "carefully crafted press releases" instead of taking a stand on critical issues.

HIDIN' FROM BIDEN — And there's no end in sight until nap time at the White House.
Last weekend, Elissa Slotkin and Democrats like Gary Peters and Gretchen Whitmer SKIPPED Joe Biden's visit to Michigan, and now they're paying for it.
Asked about Slotkin skipping the Detroit rally, Vadlamudi said she’s “going to be skeptical of anyone” in down-ballot races who doesn’t stand by the president, saying such calls only weaken the party.
Today, the Michigan Democrat Party REMOVED Hillary Scholten from their coordinated campaign after she called for Biden to step down — Notably, it was the MDP that made the decision, not Biden!
