Michigan Democratic Attorney General Dana Nessel skipped her party’s convention Saturday after saying she feared being booed, harassed and chased over her support for Israel — amid warnings of tense clashes over the Middle East.
“I don’t feel safe going,” Nessel, who is Jewish, warned late last month.
“I feel like my presence is not going to be welcomed. I don’t want to get chased around. I don’t want to get harassed. I don’t want to get yelled and screamed at. I don’t want to get booed off the stage, irrespective of what I’m saying. And I believe that if I go, that is what will happen because it’s been happening to me.”
Nessel cited a rise in antisemitism on the left and growth of far-right elements in advance of the party gathering.
Her decision came as Michigan Democrats took extraordinary security precautions for the convention following a rowdy April gathering and growing tensions over Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.
A slate of party leaders signed a letter this week warning delegates against “disruptive behavior,” while a party email sent Aug. 26 threatened “zero tolerance and immediate ejection” for anyone violating its code of conduct.
Among the signers was US Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed, who campaigned in part by slamming Israel.
The party also beefed up security, including law enforcement officers, entrance screening and security personnel throughout the venue, the Detroit News reported.
“Our Democratic ticket stands united on this — the rules will be enforced, without exception,” party leaders said.

Courageous woman coward. Hear her roar.

America needs to arise and vote every damn NWO commie into the dust bin of history.
Look at what the leftist baftards are doing to Canada, which has 1.4 million newly immigrated Muslims in a population of 41 million with only 330,000 Jews left.A disaster.
Its time we cashiered the whole lot of them in America.
I have known two Orthodox Jews that said the same thing. Both said You are not a Jew if you vote Democrat
Yes, its been a well known fact that the Jewish People have a cadre of Jews who rebel against YHWH, the ones who insisted on casting a golden calf idol while Moses was on the mount , receiving the 10 commandments. The modern Bolshevik Jews like Schumer are their descendants.
The manifestation of these non Jews varies from one epoch to another. These days they play the Bolshevik game.Their common theme is to go against the command of YHWH. Any one of them who votes democrat these days is doing what they always have done. Criticize them publicly and you will be branded as an antisemitic Hitler Nazi. IN fact it is they who are the totalitarians , who decry the free will of man kind.
This is a truth that has been known to the world since the Jewish Nation was liberated from Egypt, but few dare say it publicly.
May these "Jews" finally see the truth and give up their nonsense.

Yes. We need to repair elections because the communist fix is in. A few corrupt districts. A few corrupt counties. A few corrupt States. Equals a corrupt country.
