With all the talk about high levels of anxiety in Gen Z why is constant awareness of school shootings never mentioned? I was an anxious kid in the ‘50’s (nuclear war, kidnapping, the Lincoln tunnel collapsing) & I would be a basket case if I were a kid now. Gun violence wasn’t even on our radar then

As Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis stated in 1933; “We can have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we cannot have both.”

I saw a clip of Lindsay Halligan walking and my immediate thought was: Melania’s body double! Same model gait, same hair, maybe a bit taller?

I held a roundtable to discuss the need for a full contested case before the MPSC regarding DTE’s ex parte application to service a 1.4-gigawatt AI data center in Saline Township. Our state's ratepayers deserve protection and transparency.

Stephen Miller is scared because Democrats are calling on U.S. military service members and intelligence professionals to honor their oaths to the Constitution.
Miller knows they can’t do that and enforce Trump’s unconstitutional agenda - which Miller himself has shaped.
