Michigan State Senator Mallory McMorrow, now running for U.S. Senate, scrubbed approximately 6,000 social media posts that reveal troubling questions about when she actually became a Michigan resident and expose her contempt for Middle America voters she seeks to represent.
California Residency Contradicts Official Timeline
McMorrow claims in her 2025 autobiography that she relocated permanently to Michigan in 2014. However, archived social media posts paint a different picture. The deleted tweets show McMorrow repeatedly referenced voting in California’s June 2016 Democratic primary and urged others to register for it. In July 2016, she described herself as a constituent of California Representative Ted Lieu and referenced voting in person in Los Angeles in November 2014. Public records confirm she did not register to vote in Michigan until August 2016, contradicting her official residency claims by two full years.
Disparaging Posts About Michigan and Middle America
The deleted tweets reveal McMorrow’s true feelings about the state and region she now campaigns to represent. On January 5, 2017, just before Congress certified Donald Trump’s victory, she wrote that the day made her miss California even more. Weeks before Trump’s inauguration, McMorrow posted about a dream where the United States amicably broke apart into coastal areas plus Canada and Mexico versus Middle America. Despite running in Michigan, a state built on the auto industry, she declared she was pushing for a future where people do not own cars and stated flatly that cars are dead.
Supreme Court Threats and Political Backlash
McMorrow’s controversial statements extend beyond her deleted tweets. In December, she made headlines when she openly admitted she would not be able to control herself if she encountered Supreme Court Justices Amy Coney Barrett and Brett Kavanaugh in public. She even joked about throwing beer cans in their faces, raising serious questions about her judgment and temperament for higher office.
What This Means
The mass deletion of 6,000 posts suggests McMorrow recognized these statements could damage her Senate campaign. The residency timeline discrepancies raise legal and ethical questions about her claims of being a longtime Michigan resident. Her disparaging remarks about Middle America and Michigan’s auto industry directly contradict her current campaign messaging. Voters will now decide whether a candidate who dreamed of splitting the country and expressed such disdain for their values deserves to represent them in Washington.
