Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

No governmental agency has conducted an independent review of the Line 5 tunnel project. A “trust us” pinky promise from a company like Enbridge isn’t good enough.
Demand @GovWhitmer and @MichiganEGLE conduct a comprehensive review of the proposed Great Lakes tunnel.

Republicans have tried to repeal the ACA over 70 times over the last 15 years. They've had 15 years to come up with a replacement plan.
15 years later? They have no plan.
And today they voted to spike healthcare premiums for over half a million Michiganders.

China was the largest export market for American farmers in 2024. They bought 27 metric tons of soybeans last year. They stopped buying in 2025 when Trump started his trade war. These are simple, obvious, basic facts. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Leavitt: "President Trump convinced President Xi to continue purchasing again American soybeans, which is something China wasn't doing under the last administration because they had no respect for President Biden or the country at the time."

They want to repeat lies to make them true in people's minds. Every time you hear these lies, remind people that Biden left Donald Trump an economy that The Economist called envy of the world. ZERO% chance of a recession. Donald's regime has dragged it down into a stagflation.
Karoline Leavitt lies with impunity on Fox & Friends: "Don't forget -- a year ago, President Trump inherited the worst inflation crisis in modern American history from the Biden administration."

This has largely been memory-holed but in Trump 1.0, he picked a big public trade fight with China. They retaliated by cutting off agriculture purchases, farmers got squeezed, Trump mailed them checks and had to go crawling back to Xi for a face-saving "deal".
Sound familiar?

I knew there had to be some unholy alliances being made at the top levels of both parties and DTE to explain how the wheels have been greased toward this data center debacle. Apparently the only people who want them are union members deluded by the jobs promises and politicians on the take from DTE.

The President is raising rates by thousands of dollars PER FAMILY for northern Michiganders.
He’s rejecting disaster aid out of spite, just because he feels like it. His decision will cost impacted residents tens of millions of dollars and threatens our rural utility providers’ future.
