At one point she appears to express shock at the officer's refusal to let her off: 'My whole life has been an official. I'm a minister's daughter and an elected official. Like, everything in my life has been an official, but OK.'

'You don't understand, I'm elected. I'm a senator. People will be, like, 'The senator got arrested',' Warren is heard telling the officers while sitting handcuffed in the back of the police car. 'That'll be, like, [expletive bleeped]. This is going to be the most famous arrest you've ever made.

If she were a Republican the headline would be:

‘Super drunk’ REPUBLICAN Michigan rep tells cops ‘this is going to be the most famous arrest you’ve ever made’ after the REPUBLICAN is caught driving erratically on the highway while the REPUBLICAN was THREE TIMES over the limit...Did We Mention that She’s a REPUBLICAN?

Note they use the short form of Representative “Rep”.

They know some people will see that it think it stands for “Republican”, it’s an old trick.

This is up there with the New Jersey lady who laid into the traffic cops for pulling over her daughter. She was so sure she was a big-shot Port Authority official because someone gave her a shiny badge. That viral video went around for weeks.

She is a Dem state Senator, not a member of her House of Representatives yet the article identifies her as “rep.” The propaganda media is in full protection mode.

Auburn Hills — State Rep. Rebekah Warren, D-Ann Arbor, who was arrested Thursday night for suspected drunken driving, said she “made a stupid mistake” after other motorists complained and a police officer watched her bounce off a guardrail.

All tits and no brains.

I mean really. If she had a clue she would be supported by a State Senatorial infrastructure where she would have a designated driver when she is impaired.But instead she is a kickass fem who will do it all on her own? Buahahahahahahaha!

If she can’t organize her personal life, how in old hell could she ever organize her political life to effectively represent her constituents?

Game over Senator Rebekah Lynn Warren. Start looking for a day job.

DUI arrest

Late on the evening of December 26, 2019, Warren was arrested in Auburn Hills, MI, after her vehicle was observed weaving in and out of lanes on northbound I-75 and striking a guardrail. Police had received several calls in relation to an apparently impaired driver at approximately 11 p.m. The police report noted several vehicles following Warren with their hazard lights engaged when they finally located her. Police dashcam footage shows Warren’s Jeep swerving into the right lane, narrowly missing another vehicle, and then colliding with the right wall of northbound I-75 before continuing on. She would later tell police she was unaware that she had hit the wall. Police activated emergency lights and siren but Warren failed to stop for several minutes. As she eventually tried to pull over, Warren swerved into the right lane at varying speeds between 55 and 70 mph and told officers she hadn’t noticed their lights and sirens. Warren told police she was on her way home to Ann Arbor, though the I-75 does not lead to Ann Arbor. She also told the arresting officer that she had consumed 2-3 glasses of wine at the Renaissance Center in Detroit “just a minute ago” and subsequently failed a field sobriety test administered at the scene. Warren refused to take a breathalyzer test and was taken by police to McLaren Hospital in Pontiac where testing showed her blood alcohol level was .21, almost triple the legal limit. Police dashcam footage shows Warren telling police at the scene “You understand there’s going to be a moment where we’re both going to be on TV”, adding “I’m elected. I’m a senator. This is going to be the most famous arrest you’ve ever made.” According to the sheriff’s website, Warren was taken to Oakland County Jail and booked just after 3 a.m. on December 27 and released at 2:14 p.m. the same day. Warren was subsequently released on a $500 personal recognizance bond and was scheduled to return to court for a hearing on February 19, 2020.[10][11][12]
