Rep. Haley Stevens, who is running for a U.S. Senate seat in Michigan, got caught in an embarrassing situation. Stevens took to social media to boast about an endorsement from Berrien County Commissioner Chokwe Pitchford.

Stevens wrote on X, in a post that has since been deleted, “I am truly honored to be endorsed by Commissioner Pitchford. Your work in Berrien County is inspiring Thank you, Commissioner.”

The only problem? Pitchford did not, in fact, endorse Stevens.

Pitchford took to social media to say that he has not endorsed Stevens and has not spoken to her or anyone in her campaign.

Pitchford shared on social media, “I literally never endorsed her or heard a word from her team. I promise you, I have not talked to anyone, emailed anyone about endorsements, or even hinted that I would be open to endorsing her.”

During the pandemic, Stevens delivered a confusing, rambling screed on the floor of the House regarding the coronavirus bill while wearing purple latex medical gloves that will provide ample fodder for her opponents.

At one point, Stevens screamed while flailing her arms, “Servitude brings to the profession those who have not come before you. Similar times of medical need, wars, and flus will pass; you will see darkness. You will be pushed, and our society needs you to stay united.”

Presiding officer Rep Anthony Brown (D-MD) was forced to shut down Stevens and ruled her out of order.
