Elissa Blair Slotkin (born July 10, 1976) is an American politician and former intelligence analyst serving since 2025 as the junior United States senator from Michigan. A member of the Democratic Party, she served in the United States House of Representatives from 2019 to 2025.

Slotkin was a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) analyst and Department of Defense official, ending her career there as the acting Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs. In 2018, she was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives, representing Michigan's 8th congressional district.

Slotkin was elected to the Senate in 2024, defeating Republican nominee Mike Rogers in a close race.[2] She became the second female senator from Michigan after Debbie Stabenow. She is expected to become Michigan's senior senator when Gary Peters retires in 2027.

Obama popularized "evolved" as a useful lie on contentious issues. Of course - he was talking over the course of years. Maybe Senator CIA is actually going to try to pull that bullshit over the course of days.

"On Sunday I was against the bill. But it's Tuesday now and my position has evolved. I am for it and here's why..." And laughable nonsense about getting "assurances" and "commitments" follows.
