> Ahead of the US midterm elections, Democratic Congresswoman Haley Stevens endorsed Republican Mike Rogers in Michigan’s Senate race, rejecting her party’s nominee, Abdul El-Sayed. Their relationship deteriorated after El-Sayed declined to condemn an ad criticizing US support for Israel’s war in Gaza. Donald Trump praised Stevens for crossing party lines while attacking El-Sayed.
