Michigan Senate Candidate Mallory McMorrow Purges X After Insulting Midwest
Published
Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Mallory McMorrow has reportedly deleted thousands of tweets … including some complaining about Michigan, the state she’s running to represent.
The purge was reported Wednesday by CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski … notably one year after the New York Post shared several of her eyebrow-raising X tweets. McMorrow was born in New Jersey, then spent time as a California resident. In an alleged 2014 tweet, she crapped all over Michigan, writing … “Aaaand it’s snowing. Screw you, Michigan. #NYCtoLA.”
An alleged January 2017 tweet reads … “There are days like these that make me miss California even more” in reply to a user who suggested “California should have its own diplomats” to “make sure we don’t get nuked because of morons from the other side of the country.”
She also turned heads in 2016 when she allegedly tweeted about coastal U.S. states breaking off from Middle America and having Barack Obama as prime minister.
Kaczynski also called McMorrow out for writing in her 2025 autobiography that she “relocated permanently” to Michigan in 2014 … but kept voting in California until June 2016.
Hannah Lindow, a spokesperson for McMorrow, told Kaczynski her move to Michigan was “a process” that was not complete until 2016, hence her voting in California.
Lindow also said McMorrow deleted all her tweets prior to 2020, which she claimed is “pretty standard for candidates.”
TMZ has reached out to McMorrow … so far, no word back.
Coffee and energy drinks are popular sources of caffeine, but may have different health effects. Credit: Health / Getty Images
Both coffee and energy drinks can vary in caffeine content.
Moderate caffeine consumption is recommended for reducing the risk to your heart.
Energy drinks have been shown to cause heart problems, but more research is needed.
Coffee and energy drinks are popular options for a quick energy boost. Both caffeinated beverages can support physical endurance, alertness, and reaction time. However, they can also increase heart rate, reduce steadiness, and increase your added sugar intake.
Which One Will Give You More Energy?
Coffee and energy drinks can both range in caffeine content, which can affect their impact on energy levels. Coffee drinks vary in caffeine based on the brew method and bean type, but on average, a cup (8 ounces) of coffee contains about 113-247 milligrams of caffeine.
Standard 16-ounce energy drinks can contain anywhere from 70 to 240 milligrams of caffeine. Concentrated 2-2.5 ounce energy shots pack about 113-200 milligrams of caffeine in a much smaller volume.
It's important to be aware of how much caffeine you’re consuming and check nutrition labels. However, energy drink manufacturers aren’t required to disclose the caffeine content.
Which Has a Greater Impact on Heart Health?
Research shows consuming high levels of caffeine can raise your blood pressure and heart rate, as well as affect your heart’s rhythm. This risk is especially high for children since their cardiovascular and nervous systems aren’t fully developed.
Coffee's effect on heart health is more widely researched than that of energy drinks. Evidence suggests that moderate coffee drinking can support heart health, while heavy consumption increases heart disease risk. How you prepare your coffee also affects the way it impacts your heart. Boiled coffee, like the kind you can make with a French press, can increase your cholesterol levels. High amounts of caffeine can also have negative effects on the heart, so many people with existing heart conditions choose decaf coffee out of caution.
Some case studies show that energy drink consumption can harm heart health, even in young people, but more research is needed to understand the mechanisms behind this. Some of the more severe cases include sudden death from drinking an energy drink.
What Other Ingredients, Besides Caffeine, Can Affect My Health?
Coffee and energy drinks aren’t just pure caffeine. It’s important to consider their other ingredients when thinking about how they can impact your health. Early research suggests some of the cardiovascular effects of coffee and energy drinks may be more related to other ingredients than caffeine.
For example, energy drinks can contain a range of other ingredients, such as guarana (which contains additional caffeine), sugar, B vitamins, and other energy-boosting compounds. Both coffee drinks and energy drinks can contain high amounts of added sugar. Energy drinks can also interact with alcohol and prescription or illicit drugs, causing negative health effects.
Risks of Having Too Much Caffeine
Whether you choose coffee, an energy drink, or another caffeinated drink for your energy boost, it’s important to watch how much caffeine you’re consuming per day. Adults without underlying health conditions should limit their total caffeine intake per day to 400 milligrams. People who are pregnant or breastfeeding should stick to half of that limit, or about 200 milligrams. You can always check with your healthcare provider about your individual health status and their recommendations for your caffeine levels.
