There’s really not much to say about this other than, “f⁕⚠︎ that b⁕tch.”

And apparently that’s what her entire staff said too.

Stevens, who served on former President Barack #Obama's auto task force & flipped what had been a #Republican district in 2018, may have all but ended her political career in the process, regardless of who wins the #USSenate seat.

US Rep #DebbieDingell, D-Ann Arbor, said Stevens was engaged in "continued efforts to get attention," & several members of Stevens' staff, including her chief of staff, resigned in protest. State #Democratic Party Chairman Curtis Hertel Jr. said Stevens' act constituted a betrayal of the party & her constituents & that he would move to have her removed from the party altogether.

"As #HaleyStevens' chief of staff for 8 years, I speak on behalf of our team in wholeheartedly supporting #AbdulElSayed for #Senate ... We are shocked & heartbroken by Congresswoman Stevens' decision to support Mike Rogers," Justin German said in a prepared statement. "As of this morning, many members of our team have resigned, including myself. We encourage everyone to exercise their civic duty, vote for Abdul & #Democrats up & down the ballot, & stand up for the America we all believe in."

Keep in mind that this all could be a political pantomime, both Stevens' endorsement and the resignations.

The endorsement this close to the election won't have as much impact, especially considering votes already cast. So why do it? With the upsides attenuated, the costs weigh heavily.

It's reasonable to think Stevens has already chosen to end that phase of her career and wanted the headlines, while her staffers, instead of just being unemployed, would get this feather in their caps as they stayed in the business.
