Jeff TimmerHOST
With the Dems poised to flip the open John James congressional seat and oust incumbents Tom Barrett and Bill Huizenga in other parts of Michigan, Democrats are eyeing a possible fourth congressional flip, with an aggressive challenge to First District Congressman Jack Bergman.
Jeff TimmerHOST
That's northern Michigan and Upper Peninsula, where Calibar just buried the GOP incumbent, who happens to live in Louisiana and not Michigan's Upper Peninsula, in third quarter fundraising.
Jeff TimmerHOST
It's hard for me, quite honestly, to see this district flip, regardless of how shitty an incumbent Bergman is.
Ashley HayekGUEST
And it was coming, I'm like, there's no way these students are that coordinated across the country, you know, pushing this agenda.
Ashley HayekGUEST
And what we started to find is, There are groups like the Sunrise Movement, whose co-founder is actually running for Congress in Michigan, Congressional District 7, that's currently Tom Barrett's seat.

John YobGUEST
But they made it a statewide campaign, a district-by-district campaign that changed the rest of the ticket.
Kyle MelinnMODERATOR
So comparing that to 2026, then the fact that Rogers is essentially the top of the ticket for Republicans, is that going to be good enough to save Bill Huizenga, to save Tom Barrett and to save Matt Hall as being the Speaker of the House?
John YobGUEST
Well, I think the Democrats already pulled out of Matt Hall.
John YobGUEST
So Matt Hall is maybe different.
Kyle MelinnMODERATOR

Jason RoeGUEST
Um, you know, and I, you know, doing the, as I mentioned, the Tom Barrett race, and Lansing has a significant Black community.
