  "account": "Michigan Democratic Senate primary nominee Rep. Haley Stevens released a video endorsing Republican Mike Rogers on November 1, 2026, in Detroit. Stevens, a pro-Israel advocate, had previously criticized Rogers as a \"rubber stamp for Donald Trump's dangerous agenda.\" Her endorsement follows accusations that Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed must do more to court pro-Israel voters. Stevens joins the ranks of establishment Democrats, including former Senators Joe Manchin and Krysten Sinema, who have left the party or voted against progressive policies. Reps. Nancy Pelosi and Hakeem Jeffries also opposed El-Sayed's campaign. Contemporary Democrats are more willing to see Republicans win than prevent criticism of Israel's policies, making Stevens's actions a political liability for the party.",
  "summary": "By endorsing Abdul El-Sayed’s opponent for Israel’s sake, Stevens shows how the real threat to progress comes from centrists. The post Radical Centrists Like Haley Stevens Are the Real Extremists in the Democratic Party appeared first on The Intercept .",
