Tomorrow, on October 1, the biggest transfer of wealth from the working class to the wealthy hits a critical milestone. Many of the provisions from the Big Ugly Bill will go into effect, harming hundreds of thousands of Michiganders in order to create tax cuts for the richest people in America.

Trump is going to try to normalize the deployment of armed federal agents at and around the polls. Let us be clear: this is completely abnormal. “The risk here is that they are going to try to wage a campaign of fear,” Marc Elias says. This isn’t over. Stay close: demdock.com/3T3Owjg

These tariffs aren’t about the American people, they’re about President Trump. The result? A $2,800 tax on every family. Inflation is up, grocery costs are up, and while Trump pushes his personal agenda, American families are the roadkill.

Reinforcing my friend @radiofreetom.bsky.social. We’re required to refused to obey illegal orders. The military is trained on that, starting in basic. It’s also unfair to National Guard and active Marines to even put them in that circumstance against fellow citizens if not a true emergency.
