The radical left isn't wasting any time plotting their comeback. Just days after President Trump was sworn in for his historic second term, Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy is already working behind the scenes to stack the Senate with far-left progressives, throwing his weight behind Michigan state senator Mallory McMorrow for the Senate seat being vacated by retiring Democrat Gary Peters.
What makes Murphy's move particularly telling is that he's deliberately snubbing Rep. Haley Stevens, a sitting House member who represents a more moderate wing of the Democratic Party. Instead, Murphy is backing McMorrow, a state-level politician whose progressive credentials apparently outweigh any concerns about experience or electability.
"Right now we need fighters in the U.S. Senate," Murphy reportedly said, using the typical Democrat code words that really mean "we need more radical leftists willing to obstruct the America First agenda."
The Progressive Power Play
This endorsement reveals the Democrats' true strategy moving forward. Rather than learning from their devastating 2024 losses and moderating their positions, they're doubling down on the same failed progressive policies that drove millions of Americans to vote for Trump.
McMorrow has built her reputation as a darling of the progressive movement, frequently appearing on liberal media outlets and pushing the kind of woke policies that Michigan families have repeatedly rejected. Her rise from state politics directly into a Senate race, backed by establishment Democrats like Murphy, shows just how desperate the party has become.
"This is exactly what we warned about during the campaign - the radical left never stops, never learns, and never changes course," said one Trump administration source.
Meanwhile, Michigan voters are watching as out-of-state Democrats try to handpick their next senator. Will they allow Connecticut liberals like Murphy to dictate who represents them in Washington, or will they send another America First conservative to support President Trump's agenda?
The 2026 midterms are still nearly two years away, but the battle lines are already being drawn. Patriots in Michigan and across the country need to stay vigilant - the swamp creatures are already plotting their return.
