MI-SEN: U.S. Senate candidate Rogers taps students who defended Hitler group chat and spread misogynistic comments
U.S. Senate candidate Mike Rogers’s newly announced student outreach team includes a member who complained about women in politics and another who defended a leaked Young Republicans group chat filled with praise for Hitler, gas chamber jokes, racial slurs, and rape comments.
This comes on top of the Republican’s earlier decision to surround himself with pastors and advisers who have long opposed LGBTQ+ rights and promoted false claims about election fraud.
Rogers, a former congressman and FBI agent, announced “Students for Mike Rogers” earlier this month. The campaign post listed Cameron Dundas of Northwestern Michigan College and Alexander Richmond, a University of Michigan student whose LinkedIn profile identified him as Rogers’s campus coordinator.
On X on Feb. 25, Dundas, who promoted his involvement with the group on Facebook the same day Rogers announced it, wrote, “Send them to North Korea?” in response to a post asking what should be done about “these people,” a comment that appeared to refer to Jews.
