My state rep is all-in on bringing state workers back to Lansing. Because they want to spend tax money on buildings? And because there is a “growing number of complaints about lack of assistance”.

This is nonsense, false, and makes me furious.

I called MiRep Barrett about the Save act. And he responded by email telling me that one ballot was cast by an immigrant in 2024 in Michigan. So we need a law to protect our elections.

Complete idiocy.

So let’s disenfranchise millions to stop one instance of voter fraud? Smart, Barrett.

Love this photo from above the Lansing, Mi #handsoff protest! It’s from this Lansing State Journal article. Can’t wait to hear some final numbers from around the country. It was great to gather today. Next time I’m going to have a better sign.

There was a great turn out today at @standupforscience.bsky.social in Lansing, MI. I took this pic before the crowds got even bigger.

(And I had to leave because after 2 hours my toes and fingers were frozen. Yay MI winter!)

Free speech. But only for MAGA.

Also, the EndDEI DOE form. And the Heritage Foundation DOGE survey sent me into a rage last night.

Gee, I wonder what answer they are fishing for with this question. 🤬

Did my part to flood the responses. Links below.

Made my calls today about the budget and mass firings.

First time that MI Representative Barrett’s office did not answer. Also requested a town hall, again.

@peters.senate.gov voicemail was full.

Left a message for @slotkin.senate.gov

Pretty sure I solved the Case of the Missing Fort Knox Gold when I was a young gumshoe playing this game…or something equally as silly.

“If no lawyer within earshot of the President is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

Love this! Hoping we can all be this brave if it came down to it!

Just me and my beautiful one-eyed, Caribbean beach dog getting in on this BlueSky nonsense.
