Over 1100 Michigan Citizens Petition President Trump to Reconsider, Rescind Endorsement of Mike Rogers for U.S. Senate
The Coalition to Rescue Michigan, a grassroots leadership organization dedicated to restoring freedom and prosperity in Michigan, today delivered a letter to the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, urging he reconsider and rescind his endorsement of Mike Rogers, candidate for U.S. Senate in Michigan and former Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI).
The text of the petition, reproduced in full below, highlighted the role Mike Rogers played as congressman in supporting the draconian surveillance program used by various federal agencies against the American public in general and the Trump campaign, transition team, and administration in particular. In conjunction with Rogers’ repeated disparagement of President Trump in the major media, the petition noted that it is “reasonable to conclude that Rogers would sabotage a future Trump administration if given the opportunity.”
“The eleven hundred-plus Michigan patriots who signed this petition did so out of genuine, sincere concern that the President’s endorsement is a strategic mistake, both for his re-election campaign and for the prospects of the future Trump administration,” Rescue Michigan President Adam de Angeli noted. “This is an extraordinary outpouring of support for the President to correct course and endorse a candidate who will be a genuine ally to him on the ticket and in the U.S. Senate.”
The petition noted that while two other candidates – Justin Amash and Peter Meijer – both voted for the false impeachments of the former President, there were additional candidates in the race, some financially competitive.
“It’s not too late for President Trump to revisit this issue, and the fact that over 1,100 Michiganders signed this petition urging he do so shows how many people are alarmed by this.”
The petition was delivered by direct mail and email to multiple key advisors to the Trump campaign.

Dear President Trump:
We, the more than 1,100 undersigned Michigan patriots, write to you with sincere concern regarding your recent endorsement of former House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Mike Rogers for U.S. Senate in Michigan.
Mike Rogers is the very embodiment of the Deep State that sabotaged your first administration, and nothing Rogers has said or done since leaving office in 2015 suggests he would be anything other than an opponent of the second Trump administration. On the contrary, as a Fake News pundit on CNN, he disparaged you many times.
In fact, Rogers interviewed for the FBI Director position in your administration and was passed over. In all likelihood he hoped to lead the effort to overthrow your presidency himself.
We are well aware that two other candidates in this race, Justin Amash and Peter Meijer, voted for your impeachment and are intolerable. Nevertheless, there are multiple other candidates in this race, including at least one who is financially competitive.
The undersigned Michigan residents are grassroots leaders, officeholders, business owners, and Michigan citizens who voted for Donald Trump in 2016 to drain the Swamp of people like Mike Rogers. We look forward to mobilizing voters for a fraud-proof majority of votes for Donald J. Trump in 2024.
How we do that with a Trump-hating RINO adjacent to you on the ticket without confusing voters is a difficult task.
Although the situation is not ideal, there is still time to rescind your endorsement based on new facts having come to light on Mike Rogers. We strongly encourage you do so.
The text of the petition below is what these 1,148 Michigan patriots signed.
For a Great America,
Adam de Angeli
President

WHEREAS: Rogers was instrumental in setting up the warrantless mass surveillance program, Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, which was weaponized against the 2016 Trump campaign, transition team, and administration – not to mention used against law-abiding Americans hundreds of thousands of times; and
WHEREAS: Based on his history as Chair of the House Intelligence Committee as a servant of the surveillance state and one who repeatedly disparaged President Trump in national media, it's reasonable to conclude that Rogers would sabotage a future Trump administration if given the opportunity; and
WHEREAS: While nobody expects President Trump to endorse a candidate who voted to overthrow him, such as Peter Meijer or Justin Amash, he has multiple choices among candidates who support him and his agenda; and
WHEREAS: This decision will be devastating to the Trump campaign in Michigan. It is difficult to mobilize to support a candidate who not only endorses against the liberty interests of the American people, but against his very own political interest; and
WHEREAS: With the FBI on one side of the U.S. Senate race and CIA stooge Elissa Slotkin on the other, Michiganders may have no meaningful choice but a Deep State operative for their next U.S. Senator – an odious, intolerable proposition; and
WHEREAS: Mike Rogers would be a stain on the November Republican ballot in Michigan;
THEREFORE: We call upon President Trump to reconsider and rescind his endorsement of Mike Rogers, and fire whoever made the recommendation.
