 Mallory McMorrow dropped out of the Democratic Senate primary in Michigan on Sunday, narrowing the field to two as the party faces a crucial choice next month in picking a nominee to defend a must-win seat.

That leaves Rep. Haley Stevens facing Abdul El-Sayed, a candidate running from the Bernie Sanders wing of the party who is trying to extend the momentum progressives have seen in recent primaries across the country.

McMorrow’s exit ahead of the early August primary doesn’t just reflect her own struggles, but also an emphasis among many Democrats to stop El-Sayed, out of fear he would be a weaker general election candidate against former Rep. Mike Rogers, a Republican.

 Speaker Johnson says House will pass Trump’s voter ID bill through arduous process after GOP revolt

He wants to pass it through budget reconciliation but that may not work in Senate. Didn't before.

many Senate Republicans are skeptical that they could muscle the legislation through under their strict rules around the budget reconciliation process.


During the last reconciliation push earlier this year, Senate parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough ruled that Trump’s expansive voter ID bill did not comply with the chamber’s rules dictating which legislation is eligible to be in a budget framework.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune has long resisted calls by Trump to fire MacDonough, as well as demands to eliminate the filibuster rule.

Though many GOP senators warn against blowing up the filibuster and empowering a potential future Democratic-led Senate from more easily pushing through their priorities, others, like Trump ally Sen. Ron Johnson, argue that Democrats would nuke the filibuster on their own.

Bash then asked the former North Dakota governor if he condemned Patriot Front's actions and values.

"What they stand for is nothing that I could possibly agree with," Burgum replied. "But one of the foundational principles of the United States which makes democracy messy is free speech."


"There are plenty of things that I see that I might personally find offensive, [reprehensible,] but in America, free speech is allowed and this is by the whole spectrum of things," Burgum told Bash.

He then noted that America is a country where people who support communism can be elected, even though "this is what our nation has stood against and fought for because we're about life and liberty. We're not about death and tyranny."

Bash asked if he would recommend that his boss condemn Patriot Front.

Burgum told Bash that "part of my response to that is there are protests on the [National] Mall that people say things that I think are [reprehensible] about President Trump, and yet they're allowed to go on because of free speech in our country."

In videos that circulated online, hundreds of members of Patriot Front were seen carrying its flag, Confederate flags and variations of the U.S. flag, at times chanting "Reclaim America." The group posted on social media confirming that members gathered in the nation's capital on July 4, but they were not seen at major Independence Day festivities.
