Pelosi Called His Israel Views ‘Wrong,’ but Then Attacked Stevens for Rejecting Him

On November 1, 2026, Rep. Haley Stevens endorsed Republican Mike Rogers over Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed at a Detroit church, citing concerns about hate surrounding El-Sayed’s campaign. Nancy Pelosi, who had criticized El-Sayed’s views on Israel days earlier, condemned Stevens’s endorsement, and the dispute disrupted a planned Democratic unity event in Michigan.
