I wonder if Sen. Slotkin ever had a Michigan accent. I had to work at losing mine. Not hard to do but it didn't happen automatically.

All I'm hearing in today's Trump/Putin news, is Trump successfully distracting from the Epstein files.

This! Don't let up on the #PedoRapist or his vile enablers, the hordes of #MAGAtTrash and #FuckedUpEvangelicals who approve of that monster. How ironic that the #PedoRapist claims to be so determined to get rid of criminals in the US! That vile ogre is the worst American ever! #EpsteinFiles

When I was setting up these signs at the DOJ in DC in 2018, a Capitol police officer was running towards me shouting, "No! Sir! No!' #GoodTrouble

In Stephen King's "On Writing" he discusses the problem with ambiguous antecedents and pronouns in general. We can reduce pronoun usage. For example, Debra came back and gave David a kiss. Versus she came back and gave him a kiss.

Lake Orion, Michigan is an example of a shibboleth If you don't pronounce it the way people in the Detroit area pronounce it, that clues in the locals that you're not from the area.

The US Supreme Court just became the judicial branch of the Fourth Reich by allowing the Trump regime to put individuals away in concentration camps in foreign countries without due process. EXACTLY AS THE NAZIS DID DURING WWII. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/03/u...

Massive, Republican-engineered destitution is coming. There is only one option— get out ahead of it, organize at the local level, so that people have communities to go to when all else is lost. Millions upon millions are going to be left with nothing. Capture and organize the anger for social good!

So let’s break down concretely. Will Trump help the people? No. The Republican Congress? No. Republican Senate? No. Republican Department of Justice? No. Republican DHS? No. All we can do is ORGANIZE LOCALLY and then EXPAND THE LOCAL INTO THE NATIONAL. Local organizing is the way.

One way out of this mess is to help elect Democratic state governors. It's not just by electing them. It's because the actions of Democratic governors will demonstrate what good government can accomplish to help everyone.

If there was ever a symbol of why we need to get big money out of politics, reform campaign financing, stop conflicts of interest, and tax great wealth, Elon Musk is it. Kudos to Susan Crawford on this big victory for democracy, labor rights, and reproductive freedom in Wisconsin.

There used to be a lot of daily commuters between Detroit and Windsor via the Ambassador Bridge or Detroit-Windsor Tunnel. If there still is, I imagine the new DOGE restrictions will crush that commerce with a heavy hand.

During my corporate career, a high-performing employee might earn a promotion. And then they were technically "on probation" for six months or a year. On probation is an unfortunate label for a top-notch employee, but on probation is the phrase they use in the HR manuals at many organizations.
