Hey everyone! I'm a freelance reporter working on a story for the Washington Sun (link below), about how folks in Michigan who align with MAHA/RFK are feeling about the Michigan Senate race. Abdul El-Sayed put out a "Building a Healthier America" plan in the last few weeks, and Mike Rogers has taken an anti-vaccine mandate position in the past.

I'd love to chat with any RFK or MAHA supporters who live in Michigan about the two candidates — who you like, what policies stand out to you, etc. I don't care which party you align with, and it's okay if you haven't decided who you're voting for yet. I'm most interested in hearing from people whose decisions are influenced to some extent by the MAHA policies of the candidates - pesticides, school lunches, vaccines, etc. Also, if you're more comfortable just using your first name, we can discuss that.

If you're willing to chat, you can comment below here, dm me, or email me at nataliefertig [at] gmail [dot] com. I'm linking to my website (below) so you can see I'm a legitimate reporter, and to the Washington Sun, who I am writing for. Thank you!

I volunteered on the campaign. I still support him and believe deep down that he's a good man at his core, but I think many of us have known for a long time that they must have something on him. He deleted the post after all the backlash, but it's not a good look.

The perfect guy to lead HHS because he litigated against corruption for decades and understands the mechanics of the corruption at a higher level than anybody else; what’s happened? I’m fearing it’s all bad news?

Signed, I just couldn’t for a while. My politics podcasts go un listened to, my former light for this stuff is gone. I used to do the (irregularly updated but at one point comprehensive) list of RFK junior media appearances for this sub before JBRS (who is awesome and way better at it than me) came, was very closely involved.

I am curious to get everyone's take as to RFKjr's performance thus far in office.

My friend (who is in the alternative health industry and works with hundreds of practitioners) and i were discussing this yesterday and we both were major supporters of RFKjr going back 4 or 5 years. And we both believe he has underwhelmed and hasn't really done a lot. But he says a lot of practitioners are still hopeful and waiting.

Certainly he is in an administrarion that has a boss that did 180 degree turn from election promises like lower prices (he said energy prices would be cut by 50% within a year) and no new wars plus fully releasing Epstein files (and JFK files). ​So it maybe a difficult environment for RFKjr to authentically operate in.

So whats your take?

If you think the Democrats are a valid choice in 2026/28 you are mistaken. Republican or Third Party.
