Check-out my talk with Michigan state senate candidate @kellivanginhoven.bsky.social, who's trying to flip the U.P. seat from red-to-blue by pushing a strong working class message. My takes on the U.S. Senate race & polls, and don't say "war" in the MAGA state House. audioboom.com/posts/891818...

This week's Monday Musing: Karen McDonald, like other establishment Democrats, refuse to understand they are the ones taking extreme positions by rejecting working class Democratic BASE voters. So much for Vote Blue No Matter Who." audioboom.com/posts/891412...

New Episode! @DiazForMichigan talks about his working class campaign for Michigan's Senate Seat 29. Plus, my take on the latest MI Democratic Senate Primary Race, high gas prices, ballrooms in a cratering economy, vanishing voting rights, and more! audioboom.com/posts/889754...

New Episode! William Lawrence, Michigan Progressive Democratic Congressional candidate for the 7th District. William opposes Trump's War on Iran, refuses AIPAC $$, says Abolish ICE, fights for Medicare For All, and fights for the working class. audioboom.com/posts/889066...

Friday Short. With rising inflation, soaring energy costs, weak job market, insane tariffs, and the unpopular Iran War, why in the world are MAGA Republicans considered the "fiscally responsible" party? audioboom.com/posts/888686...

New Episode! @KaseyHelton05 reports on the @AbdulElSayed & Hasan Piker UofM rally, and why D.C. Democratic Party leadership keeps misreading the party's base. Plus, how Trump's War on Iran is really a war on the working class, and where is John James? audioboom.com/posts/888540...

We need @michiganmop.bsky.social on the ballot to limit DTE's and Consumers' Energy's stranglehold in Lansing! But remember, Gov. Whitmer removed a clean energy advocate on the MPSC, and inserted a pro-utility industry person, who was also on the former Democratic House Speaker's staff.

Left of Lansing "Monday Musing" on how Trump's Easter "Message" Reveals MAGA True "Values." During my years of work in corporate right-wing radio, I heard about family values and the so-called degradation of our society. But that was all performative B.S. audioboom.com/posts/888390...

Immigrants weren’t just filling existing jobs; they were helping create them. That’s Econ 101: jobs are not a fixed pie. More people means more customers, more demand, more businesses expanding, and yes, more hiring.

Solar and wind farm in Gratiot County. I think I'd rather invest in more of these than Trump's (and Israel's right wing government's) War on Iran.

To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️ It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.

The "Friday Short" on MAGA Michigan Republican Congressman Tom Barrett, who's joined the MAGA Government Grifting Game. Barrett's campaign is spending money at places where his wife just happens to work. What were the odds of that happening? audioboom.com/posts/887974...

No Kings Protest in Mt. Pleasant today. Despite a chilly morning, many showed-up in solidarity for the overlooked working class. Anti-Iran War signs, anti-ICE signs, anti-Congressman John Moolenaar signs, pro-worker signs, and pro-democracy signs were all present. @indivcentralmi.bsky.social

Shout out to the @leftoflansing.bsky.social podcast for sitting down with our Comms Team Lead @leifkolt.bsky.social to discuss Bayou Bergman, the growth of Ti, and of course this weekends #NoKings3 march through downtown Traverse City. Listen wherever you consume podcasts! youtu.be/TInWSZULJGs?...

The State of Michigan and the city of Romulus have sued the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, challenging plans to convert a warehouse in Romulus into a detention center for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Michigan AG Dana Nessel announced on Tuesday. From @kdailey.bsky.social

As time has gone on I've realized there is a still quite small but now non-trivial chance that the entire Iran War is simply an insider trading operation, creating repeated black swan moments and relying on markets continued willingness to gyrate wildly in the face of absurd and predictably ...

Federal Medicaid cuts could exact a heavy toll on psychiatric units at hospitals across the country, many of which are already struggling to keep their doors open but provide essential mental health care to people who need it. michiganadvance.com/2026/03/23/r... From @stateline.org

Let me reiterate this. When reproductive rights are protected, medical decisions stay in the hands of patients and their doctors — not politicians who have their pockets lined by private insurance companies who have no idea what you or I truly need. Louder! 👏

Watching Michigan & MSU tourney basketball, and seeing campaign ads for Republicans John James & Aric Nesbit, and some for Mike Duggan. Haven't seen one ad for Jocelyn Benson yet. Seems like a missed opportunity for Democrats to reach voters if they want to keep Governor's seat.

Friday Short! Michigan MAGA House Speaker Matt Hall blocks Freedom of Information Act Reform bills from reaching the state House floor. Those bills give oversight and transparency powers to working class Michiganders. That's not who Matt Hall represents. audioboom.com/posts/887670...

This week's show w/ @KaseyHelton05! We talk ICE in MI, Dems & Indies souring on Israel's right-wing government, Iran War & gas prices, Senate Primary race, and more. Plus, Mike Rogers & The Bankers, and Democrats who call other Democrats "antisemites." audioboom.com/posts/887593...

Deeply honored and grateful to have the support of Rep. Ilhan Omar, a leader who has never been afraid to put justice, humanity, and the truth ahead of political convenience. Her courage has helped blaze the path for so many of us.

When you believe the purpose of politics is to get elected for the sake of doing so, it's confusing to witness a leader who believes the purpose of politics is to enact an agenda.

More Monday fun? MI 51st district Republican Representative is asking for text photos using this fun AI-generated photo. Are you feeling bored? Do you have some Photoshop skills? 🤡

Left of Lansing "Friday Short" time. Pro-Iran War, and pro-right wing Israeli genocidal government supporters will use the Michigan synagogue attack to shut down dissent. www.patreon.com/posts/373-fr...

Dark money groups are paying influencers to spread attacks about our campaign. Voters deserve to know who is trying to manipulate our election.

Allow people to pray and worship without fearing for their lives. Whether it's at a church in Wayne or a synagogue in West Bloomfield. Violence is never an answer, or a solution.

A key permit from state energy regulators approving Enbridge’s Line 5 tunnel project sat before the Michigan Supreme Court on Wednesday as the justices heard two cases arguing the permit should be sent back to the Michigan Public Service Commission for further review.

Exactly. Trump & MAGA didn’t happen in a vacuum. This has always been the Republican Party.

Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof. That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy. The dealer needs to keep you addicted.

Voters being misled about the cause of Michigan’s economic decline michiganadvance.com/2026/03/09/v... Commentary from Rick Haglund

The U.S. economy lost 92,000 jobs in February. A record number of Americans are withdrawing from their 401ks to cover expenses. Americans owe $18.5 trillion in debt — an historic high. Meanwhile, the wealth of America's 935 billionaires soared by $1.5 trillion in 2025. “Golden Age” for whom?

for the youths who werent around for the iraq installment - dont believe anything the govt says about progress - no the democrats dont have to say getting rid of the baddie was good and therefore they have to support the war - the war needs to be ended - the media is not your ally and they love war

Third Way et al have made a, to be fair, defensible fetish of courting "working class" voters. Trouble is, those voters are figuring out it's the brokeness not the wokeness that's fucking them over. Third Way is trapped on a dead end street.

At a Medal of Honor ceremony on Monday, Donald Trump spent more time talking about his new ballroom than the recent deaths of at least six US service members amid his attack on Iran.

There’s always money for war. War never needs to answer how it pays for itself.

So, Iran wasn’t an imminent threat, nor has it ever been an imminent threat, to the U.S. This is Israel telling America to start a war on its behalf. 6 Americans are dead for Israel & Saudi Arabia. I thought MAGA was America First?

Agreed, and also understand how it's the Epstein Class's way of declaring war on the working class. The Epstein Class doesn't expect to be held accountable, and not only expects the working class to fight its wars for profit, but believes there's nothing we'll do to stop them.

But they said he was “The peace president.” 🥴

I will never get used to the disdain our country holds for brown and Black children. From Palestine to Iran to Sudan, we normalize the destruction of schools and hospitals and daycares. We reduce children to death tolls and their futures to rubble with no consequence or second thought.
