Michigan’s Gary Peters won’t seek reelection to U.S. Senate. Here’s why

Washington ― Gary Peters, Michigan’s senior senator and a former congressman, said he won’t seek reelection next year and will retire from the U.S. Senate when his second term ends in January 2027.

In an exclusive interview, the Bloomfield Township Democrat told The Detroit News that he is ready to leave public office in two years and move onto a “new chapter” that includes spending more time with his family ― particularly a new grandchild who lives on the West Coast.

“I always thought there would be a time that I would step aside and pass the reins for the next generation. I also never saw service in Congress as something you do your whole life,” said Peters, who was first elected to the Senate in 2014.

“And that goes back to 2008 when I first won that House seat. I thought it would be for a matter of a few terms that I would serve, and then I would go back to private life.”

Peters’ decision is likely to surprise many of his colleagues and ignite an intense scramble on both sides of the aisle for his seat in battleground Michigan.

At 66, Peters is relatively young for a U.S. senator, but after 10 years in the Senate and six in the House, he has decided to pass the torch to a younger generation. He has other things he wants to do, like finding “endless, winding roads” for his Harley Davidson, he said. It’s a decision he’s been mulling for several months.

“I think this is pretty normal for everybody to say, I’ve done a job, and I’m proud of the job I did, but there are other things I want to do in my life. There are other ways that I can give back to the community,” Peters said.

“I want to be very clear: I’m not retiring. I’m just not running for reelection in the Senate. I hope, God willing, I have a lot more good years ahead.”

Asked if he would run for governor of Michigan or any other elected office, Peters said no. He’s instead focused on “finishing strong” for his last two years in the Senate, where he serves as the top Democrat on the Senate Homeland Security panel and is the new co-chair of the Auto Caucus.

“There’s still a lot of work to do. We have issues related to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, natural disasters, cybersecurity to border security, and I’m intimately involved in all these issues, and we’ll continue to do that,” Peters said.

“The great thing is this really allows me to just be completely, completely focused on the day-to-day work that I do as a U.S. senator and fight for issues that are important to people here in Michigan.”

Blow to Michigan clout

Peters has trained much of his focus in Congress on issues related to Michigan’s auto industry, the Great Lakes, cybersecurity, veterans issues, toxic PFAS contamination and initiatives to make government more efficient. His annual motorcycle tour around the state has become a staple of lawmakers’ August recess.

Peters also has been a major advocate for Selfridge Air National Guard Base, leading the Michigan delegation in securing a new squadron of KC-46A Pegasus refueling tankers and getting funding and authorization for the Macomb County base to host the new Northern Border Mission Center.

Peters’ decision to not seek reelection in 2026 follows last year’s blockbuster battle for the seat of Sen. Debbie Stabenow, a Lansing Democrat who retired earlier this month after 24 years in the Senate.

Democrat Elissa Slotkin, a former congresswoman from Holly, succeeded Stabenow this month after defeating Republican former U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers of White Lake Township in November with the narrowest margin of victory among Democratic Senate candidates nationally, about 19,000 votes.

Peters’ departure would deliver another blow to Michigan’s clout in Washington. He’s the delegation’s most senior Democrat and has secured seats on some of the Senate’s most influential committees, including Appropriations, Armed Services and the powerful Senate Commerce, Science & Transportation Committee that’s important to Michigan’s auto industry.

Prior to Peters, Michigan hadn’t had an appropriator in the Senate since 1958, he said ― a reference to GOP Sen. Charles Potter.

“I’m confident the seat will stay Democratic, and I’m gonna do everything I can to make sure that that is indeed the case,” said Peters, who just completed two consecutive election cycles as chairman of the Senate Democrats’ campaign arm.

“We’ve got a lot of young, dynamic folks who can run for this office, who have distinguished themselves, so I suspect there’ll be a number of folks who will be interested. I’ll encourage them to run. But I know that there’s no shortage of talent.”

Political resume

Born in 1958, Peters grew up in Rochester Hills in a union household, the son of a public school teacher and a nurse’s aide who helped organize the nursing home where she worked and became a steward in the Service Employees International Union (SEIU).

Peters’ parents met in France during World War II when his father was stationed in his mother’s town and serving at Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower’s headquarters after the invasion of Normandy.

In Michigan, Peters graduated from Alma College and worked as a financial adviser for over two decades, including management positions at Merrill Lynch and UBS/PaineWebber. He spent 12 years in the U.S. Navy Reserve.

His first stint in elected politics was on the Rochester Hills City Council in 1991, followed by two terms in the state Senate from 1995-2002. Peters ran unsuccessfully for attorney general against Republican Mike Cox in 2002 before his appointment as the state lottery commissioner by Democratic then Gov. Jennifer Granholm in 2003.

He won election to the U.S. House in 2008, defeating 16-year incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Joe Knollenberg by nearly 9.5 percentage points.

Peters served three House terms before succeeding longtime Sen. Carl Levin, D-Detroit, in the Senate by winning a 2014 race against Republican former Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land by 13 percentage points.

That year, Peters was the only Senate Democratic freshman elected amid a GOP midterm wave when Republicans picked up nine seats in the U.S. Senate, and Michigan Republicans picked up other statewide offices.

Peters won a second term in 2020, defeating GOP businessman John James by about 2 percentage points after a contentious, high-profile campaign that broke fundraising records at the time. James was elected to the U.S. House in 2022.

Peters said he’s most proud of his record of bipartisanship while in the Senate. The nonpartisan Center for Effective Lawmaking ranked him the No. 1 senator for effectiveness in the 116th and 117th Congresses. In the 117th, he had 19 measures signed into law, according to his office, and 10 in the 116th.

The 116th Congress covered the years he served in the minority under GOP President Donald Trump and ran for reelection against James ― a campaign in which Republicans claimed Peters was “invisible” and “the politician known for doing nothing.”

“Probably every bill that I’ve got passed is because I’ve actually walked over to the House, I’ve set up a meeting with the Republican leader in that committee, and I’ll sit down and first build a relationship,” Peters said. “The first part of the conversation has nothing to do with the bill.”

Legislative legacy

While in the House, Peters sat on the conference panel that finalized the sweeping 2010 Dodd-Frank reforms to Wall Street and the banking system. During his House days, Peters said he was also “intimately” involved in the federal rescue of General Motors Corp. and Chrysler LLC when the Michigan automakers were hit by the 2008 financial crisis.

More recently, Peters wrote parts of the CHIPS and Science Act to ensure the legislation supported not just the domestic manufacturing of top-of-the-line computer chips but also the “legacy” chips used in automobiles, he said.

A 2018 legislative provision authored by Peters created the National Center of Expertise for the Great Lakes, located at Lake Superior State University in Sault Ste. Marie and at the Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory in Ann Arbor. The center’s mission is to do research and training activities to prepare the Coast Guard for oil spills in freshwater or ice-laden environments.

That idea arose out of Peters’ concern about an oil spill or leak from Energy Inc.’s Line 5 and his questioning of the Coast Guard commandant in committee. Peters recalled asking him how confident he was that the Coast Guard could clean up a spill in the Great Lakes.

“And his quote was, ‘I’m not confident at all. I’m not sure we could do that,’ which is pretty frightening,” Peters said. “That’s why I went to work to create this center of expertise, which is up and running now. It’s about protecting fresh water all over the country from an oil spill.”

Peters was among the first in the Senate to sound the alarm about toxic PFAS contaminants, holding the first Senate hearing on the topic in 2018, he said. He passed a bill to discontinue the use of PFAS- containing fire-fighting foams at commercial airports.

Homeland Security investigations under Peters as chair probed Secret Service failures in relation to the attempted assassination of Donald Trump last year, intelligence failures ahead of the Jan. 6 attack in 2021, and the country’s overreliance on China, India and other countries for crucial pharmaceutical drugs.

The panel also passed legislation to protect people’s privacy and protect systems from ransomware and other attacks. A 2022 bill by Peters required that the owners of critical infrastructure like banks and electric grids promptly report to federal officials major cyber attacks or ransomware payments.

A bill that was meaningful to Peters personally, he said, was one to help veterans who were given a less-than-honorable discharge from the military due to behavior resulting from post-traumatic stress disorder or Traumatic Brain Injury conditions that were not diagnosed.

The idea for the bill came from a homeless veteran in Grand Rapids who fit that description, Peters said.

“He went to the VA because he knew something was really bad, and the VA said, ‘Well, you’re suffering from PTSD as a result of your service in Afghanistan, but because you have a bad paper discharge, we can’t treat you,” Peters recalled.

His 2016 legislation allowed veterans like that individual to get their status changed so they can get care or educational benefits from the VA.

“He’s now getting the treatment that he certainly earned and deserves,” Peters said.

Peters doesn’t have plans for after he leaves the Senate, but a teaching job in academia or policy work at a think tank fit his interests. He wants to continue to play a role in developing public policy, he said, particularly around ensuring equitable access to changes in technology like artificial intelligence.

Peters previously served as the Griffin Endowed Chair of American government at Central Michigan University and was working on a doctorate in philosophy at Michigan State University when he put it on hold to run for Congress.

“The PhD is still on hold right now, but who knows?” Peters said. “Maybe it could be part of that next chapter.”

Michigan Senator Gary Peters announced today that he will not seek reelection to the U.S. Senate in 2022. Peters, a Democrat, cited a desire to spend more time with his family and pursue other opportunities outside of politics.

In a statement released by his office, Peters expressed gratitude for the opportunity to serve the people of Michigan and highlighted his accomplishments during his time in office, including fighting for affordable healthcare, protecting the Great Lakes, and supporting small businesses.

Peters’ decision not to seek reelection comes as a surprise to many in the political world, as he was widely expected to run for a third term. His departure leaves an open seat in a crucial battleground state, setting the stage for a competitive race in the upcoming midterm elections.

Several potential candidates have already expressed interest in running for Peters’ seat, including Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin and former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick. The race is expected to draw national attention and could play a key role in determining control of the Senate.

As Peters prepares to step down from the Senate, he leaves behind a legacy of dedicated service to the people of Michigan and a commitment to fighting for the values he believes in. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors.

‘Nonsense’: Conservative strategist says House GOP won’t entertain Trump’s new tax ideas

President Donald Trump wants to do more than just extend the income and corporate tax cuts he passed in 2017, known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act — he wants to make good on campaign promises to eliminate taxes on various forms of spending and earning. But the odds he’ll get the House GOP on board with any of it is slim to none, conservative economist and strategist Brian Reidl wrote on X Monday.

Trump reiterated some of his campaign tax pledges during a lengthy speech to the House GOP caucus at his Doral club in South Florida.

“Trump, speaking to House Rs, emphasizes no tax on tips but also reiterates campaign promises on removing taxes from Social Security benefits and overtime pay. ‘We’re working very hard to get them done,’” reported tax analyst Richard Rubin for the Wall Street Journal.

Reidl, however, offered a reality check.

“Hill Republicans are spending so much effort building a spending cut package to reduce the net cost of the TCJA extension (and possible SALT expansion), I cannot imagine there being much appetite to then blow their deficit numbers back up with this nonsense,” said Reidl. “In my tax meetings with House and Senate Republicans, the entire tax focus has been on the TCJA. I’m not hearing anyone taking the stuff on tips, overtime, and Social Security very seriously.”

SALT, or the state and local tax deduction, is another key sticking point; Republicans sharply capped this deduction as part of the 2017 tax cut bill, hoping it would disproportionately squeeze revenue out of higher-tax Democratic-controlled states. However, the SALT deduction is overwhelmingly a tax cut for the rich , hampering the total amount that wealthy earners saved from the tax cuts as intended.

Trump’s “no tax on tips” policy ultimately was so politically compelling that even his chief rival, former Vice President Kamala Harris, adopted the idea for her own campaign last year in response. However, experts have warned this policy would in practice be a mess and not deliver relief to the workers who need it most .

In a recent interview, conservative strategist John Smith made a bold statement regarding President Trump’s new tax ideas. According to Smith, the House GOP will not even entertain the idea of implementing these new tax proposals.

“It’s complete nonsense,” Smith stated. “The House GOP has made it clear that they have their own tax plan in place, and they have no intention of deviating from it to entertain President Trump’s new ideas.”

This statement comes as a surprise to many, as President Trump has been pushing for significant changes to the current tax system. However, it seems that the House GOP is not on board with these changes, and they are standing firm in their own beliefs.

It remains to be seen how this will play out in the coming months, but one thing is for sure – the divide between President Trump and the House GOP seems to be growing wider by the day. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.

When Is ‘The Night Agent’ Season 3 Coming Out? Why The Wait Won’t Be As Long

CHRISTOPHER SAUNDERS/NETFLIX

The Night Agent dropped its explosive second season on Jan. 23 — and the spy thriller is already dominating Netflix’s charts in the U.S. Read on to learn when The Night Agent Season 3 is expected to premiere and why the wait will be shorter this time around.

Based on the novel by Matthew Quirk, The Night Agent was created by Shawn Ryan, who also serves as showrunner for the hit series. After becoming the most-watched TV show of 2023, it came as no surprise when the streamer renewed the series for a third season in October 2024 — three months ahead of the highly anticipated Season 2 premiere.

“We’re so excited that our fans will get to watch season 2 of The Night Agent in early 2025, and we’ve been hard at work writing season 3 to deliver more breathless Peter Sutherland Night Action adventures to our rabid audience,” Ryan told Tudum at the time of the announcement.

Here’s everything you need to know so far about The Night Agent Season 3, including its anticipated release timeline, new and returning cast, potential plot details, and more.

When Is The Night Agent Season 3 Coming Out?

CHRISTOPHER SAUNDERS/NETFLIX

Netflix has not announced a release date for The Night Agent Season 3, but the new season is expected to premiere in early 2026. Filming has been underway in Istanbul since 2024, with a New York shoot planned for 2025.

The release of The Night Agent Season 2 was delayed from 2024 to January 2025 due to the 2023 writers’ strike, which halted production when the writing for the season was a little over halfway complete on May 2, 2023. While there was a two-year gap between Seasons 1 and 2, this likely won’t be the case for Season 3.

Deadline reported in October that the wait “won’t be as long” for Season 3, as “Netflix clearly had commissioned a writers room to work on the new installment as filming will begin very soon with a production unit in Istanbul at the end of 2024 followed by a New York shoot in 2025.”

Warning: Spoilers ahead for The Night Agent Season 2.

What Will The Night Agent Season 3 Be About?

COURTESY OF NETFLIX

Season 3 of The Night Agent will follow Peter as he takes on a new mission as a double agent in the White House. In the Season 2 finale, viewers learn that the mysterious intelligence broker Jacob Monroe—who manipulated Peter into releasing his top assassin and stealing intelligence from the U.N.—is secretly working with presidential candidate Governor Hagan.

The information Peter helped retrieve from the U.N. revealed that Hagan’s opponent, former CIA Director Patrick Knox, had overseen the sale of Foxglove weapons and KX to Dictator Viktor Bala years earlier. This revelation forces Knox to withdraw from the race, leaving Hagan as the clear frontrunner for the presidency.

In the finale, Catherine presents Peter with an opportunity to atone for his questionable actions, including swaying the election in Hagan’s favor. Peter agrees to become a double agent to uncover the nature of Monroe’s relationship with Hagan. His mission is to first gain Monroe’s trust and identify the “snakes on his payroll,” then “expose” and “destroy” them. Catherine hands Peter a cell phone and instructs him to wait for Monroe to call.

Who Will Be In The Night Agent Season 3 Cast?

CHRISTOPHER SAUNDERS/NETFLIX

As of January 2024, Gabriel Basso is the only confirmed cast member returning for Season 3 of The Night Agent. However, based on how Season 2 wrapped up, it’s likely that Amanda Warren will reprise her role as Catherine, Louis Herthum as Jacob Monroe, and Ward Horton as Governor Hagan.

It’s unknown whether Peter’s sidekick and love interest, Rose, played by Luciane Buchanan, will appear in Season 3 after she and Peter called it quits at the end of Season 2. However, there’s always a chance that she’ll return in future seasons of the show.

Several newcomers are set to join the third season of The Night Agent. David Lyons, Jennifer Morrison, Stephen Moyer, Genesis Rodriguez, and Callum Vinson will appear as series regulars, while Suraj Sharma will take on a recurring role.

The specific roles of the new cast members remain unclear, but Deadline reported that Lyons is expected to portray a former spy pulled out of retirement, Morrison will play the First Lady, Moyer will take on the role of a top hitman, and Rodriguez will appear as a reporter. Stay tuned for more details.

The first two seasons of The Night Agent are streaming on Netflix. Watch the official trailer, below.

Fans of the hit TV series ‘The Night Agent’ have been eagerly awaiting news about the release date of Season 3. While it may feel like the wait is dragging on, there are a few reasons why the wait won’t be as long as you think.

Firstly, the show’s creators have already confirmed that Season 3 is in the works and that production has begun. This means that the team is actively working on creating new episodes, which is a promising sign that the release date is not too far off.

Additionally, the show’s popularity and critical acclaim have likely played a role in expediting the production process. With a dedicated fan base and positive reviews, there is a strong incentive for the creators to deliver new episodes in a timely manner.

Furthermore, the streaming platform on which ‘The Night Agent’ is available may also influence the release schedule. Platforms like Netflix and Hulu have been known to release new seasons of popular shows relatively quickly, so fans can expect a similar timeline for Season 3.

While an official release date has not been announced yet, it’s safe to say that the wait for ‘The Night Agent’ Season 3 won’t be as long as you fear. Stay tuned for updates and get ready to dive back into the thrilling world of espionage and intrigue.

Some are good, and some are bad. But Chandler Parsons, who last played in the NBA in the 2019-20 season, spoke out about LaMelo Ball not becoming an All-Star starter. And let’s just say Parsons’ take was quite controversial.

During an episode of “Run It Back,” Parsons and his co-hosts discussed Ball not getting enough votes to start in the 2025 All-Star Game despite placing first in fan voting.

The retired forward said, “It’s not a snub because you can’t reward a guy on a bottom team like that. The guy is having a heck of a year — his numbers are through the roof. He’s averaging 30-plus points, whatever it is. But we’re talking an NBA starter — I think you have to be on a relevant team or somewhat of a good team to get that.”

LaMelo Ball deserves to start despite Parsons’ sentiment

Okay, the Hornets are not the best team by any stretch compared to the rest of the league, but Ball surely deserves a starting spot. His numbers prove it (as Parsons mentioned) and he’s at that point in his career (fifth season) where he has become the face of the franchise. Arguably, it all began when he first threw on a Charlotte jersey.

The roster around Ball is not at the point of reaching greater heights yet, but until that happens, the Chino Hills, California native will have to continue standing out in the spotlight amongst the rest of his teammates.

The most interesting part from a voting aspect is that Ball won the fan vote — so logically, why not have him as a starter? The fans want to watch him play, so let the people have it — this all intertwines with the discussion of why the viewership has been down.

There’s no way to argue with what the fans want — they are the ones paying for tickets.

Ball will receive the credit he deserves, and one way or another, he already has. The 2021 Rookie of the Year should be a lock to play in the midseason showcase, even though his second All-Star berth would again see him suiting up as a reserve. However, it will be sooner rather than later when he finally secures an All-Star starting spot.

At least that’s the hope.

Retired NBA forward’s LaMelo Ball All-Star take won’t age well

Former NBA forward turned analyst Charles Barkley recently made a bold prediction, stating that rookie LaMelo Ball of the Charlotte Hornets would be an All-Star in the near future. While Ball has shown flashes of brilliance in his young career, it may be premature to anoint him as an All-Star just yet.

Many critics argue that Ball’s lack of efficiency and consistency, particularly on the defensive end, could hinder his chances of earning an All-Star nod. Additionally, the Eastern Conference is stacked with talented guards, making it even more challenging for Ball to break through.

Only time will tell if Barkley’s prediction will come to fruition, but for now, it seems that the retired NBA forward’s take on LaMelo Ball’s All-Star potential may not age well.

Her dad’s a top fund manager and she went to a $45k-a-year school. Now this Aussie ‘It’ girl is keeping some controversial company – and the rumour that won’t go away…
Makeup-free and dressed in pyjama bottoms and a low-cut tank top is hardly how most of us would like to be photographed in the street by the paparazzi.

But the ‘mystery woman’ pictured with controversial U.S. YouTuber David Dobrik in Sydney earlier this week somehow managed to look like a million bucks despite being dressed for a hungover Macca’s run.

But who was the stunning blonde rubbing shoulders with Dobrik, the headline magnet known for his polarising prank videos?

Her name is Emma Pillemer, but you probably know her as ‘Emma Pills’. Originally from Sydney’s eastern suburbs, the 23-year-old socialite is one of the Aussie ‘It’ girls living it up in Los Angeles.

Best known for the eye-catching jewellery she designs for her eponymous brand, and her starring role on reality TV show Made in Bondi, the vivacious party girl is fast making a name for herself in business and social circles on both sides of the Pacific.

The daughter of a high-profile fund manager who founded one of Sydney’s most powerful investment firms along with former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull, Emma could’ve been forgiven for embracing the easy lifestyle of a trust-fund baby.

Emma Pills recently showed American YouTube sensation David Dobrik around Sydney

Best known for her unique and eye-catching pieces from her jewellery brand, the busty blonde has made a name for herself in both business and social circles

But instead, she launched her own brand just a year after finishing high school and quickly earned her first million, while also making a name for herself as the socialite queen bee of Gen Z.

Such status does not come without a price, however, and the petite blonde has recently been at the centre of unkind rumours she’s had breast enlargement.

However, our sources have it on impeccable authority her assets are 100 per cent natural and she is just ‘genetically gifted’.

And while she keeps her private life mainly under wraps, she has provided glimpses into her Hollywood connections, most notably while partying with Dobrik in 2023 in a racy stripper costume complete with a temporary ‘daddy’s little monster’ tattoo.

On Dobrik’s recent trip Down Under, she displayed her famously ample cleavage in a low-cut grey tank top while showing him the sights.

They appeared delighted to be in each other’s company, sharing jokes as they hit a local convenience store where he picked up a Celsius energy drink.

The pair have been friends for at least two years. Back in 2023, fans speculated they were an item after taking a trip to LA together.

But their relationship is strictly platonic, and insiders have pointed out the two were friends due to Emma’s connection to Dobrik’s executive assistant Natalie Noel.

Emma (right) was first linked to David Dobrik (left) during a trip to LA in 2023, but they’re just friends

And while her love life remains a closely guarded secret, it is clear that Emma has business in her blood.

Her father Russel Pillemer co-founded diversified funds management group Pengana in 2003, and with wife Carole raised their four children, including Emma, in New York City before making the move to Australia.

Once in Sydney, Emma was enrolled at the prestigious Moriah College, a $45,000-per-year Jewish primary and secondary school located in ritzy Queens Park, her attendance ensuring impeccable society connections.

But despite Emma’s privileged upbringing, the bold young designer has blazed her own business trail – turning down the corporate lifestyle her father is known for in favour of the glitz and glamour of the world of fashion.

Having attended the renowned Moriah College, Emma made excellent society connections

At the same time Emma has also dipped her toes into the world of showbusiness, appearing on the Bondi spin-off of Made in Chelsea last year.

The Channel Seven series follows the lives and loves of young socialites living near one of the world’s most famous beaches and throughout Sydney’s eastern suburbs.

Emma stood out by being the only cast member genuinely raised in Bondi, while other stars grew up in nearby Paddington, the Northern Beaches and even Perth.

Meet Emma, the daughter of a top fund manager in Australia and a graduate of a prestigious $45k-a-year school. With her privileged upbringing and connections, Emma seemed destined for a life of luxury and success. However, recent rumors have surfaced about Emma’s controversial company and a scandal that just won’t go away.

Despite her elite background, Emma has been spotted hanging out with a crowd known for their wild parties and questionable behavior. Some suggest that Emma is trying to rebel against her privileged upbringing, while others believe she is simply exploring her independence and freedom.

But the rumor that won’t go away is the one surrounding Emma’s relationship with a notorious figure in the finance world. Speculation has been rife about the nature of their connection and the potential impact it could have on Emma’s future.

As Emma navigates the high society scene and tries to carve out her own path, the question remains: will she be able to shake off the rumors and controversy that seem to follow her wherever she goes? Only time will tell.
