Democrat Senate Hopeful Rushes To Delete Old Posts Trashing Her Own State, But ‘The Internet Is Forever’


One prospective Democratic US senator from Michigan might be watching her political career implode thanks to some resurfaced social media posts.

But in this case, the target of those offensive posts isn’t a person or group … but the very state she’s campaigning to represent on Capitol Hill.

The Daily Caller provided this report:

McMorrow also took shots at the state she is aiming to represent, at one point rooting for Notre Dame over the University of Michigan in a post, according to the New York Post. Another post, since deleted, featured McMorrow expressing a dislike of snow and using the hashtag #NYCtoLA.

McMorrow vaulted to national prominence in 2022 when she gave a speech on the floor of the Michigan Senate attacking Republicans for their opposition to child sex changes, opposition to abortion and other social conservative positions. The speech went viral and was praised by longtime Democratic strategist James Carville.

Naturally, the developing controversy played out in real time on social media:

Fox News also covered the development:

In addition to appearing to bash the part of the country she seeks to represent, McMorrow’s deleted tweets covered a variety of other topics, including Trump, whose governing style she compared to Nazi Germany and Adolf Hitler, according to a review of the now-archived posts.

A spokesperson for McMorrow’s campaign, Hannah Lindow, suggested the social media posts exposed in K-File’s report Wednesday were light-hearted and often jokes. One post included McMorrow complaining about the cold Michigan weather, while another quipped that she was “pushing for a future without cars” in response to a thread about Uber drivers.

“These are normal tweets by a normal person,” Lindow told Fox News Digital. “Normal people complain about the weather. The Michigan sky does in fact sometimes ‘s— ice.’ She stands by that.”

Meanwhile, Lindow pointed to a Democratic strategist who argued “every adult decision Mallory has made” says that she loves Michigan.
