My office is being Censored. I am not being allowed to call the Iran War a war Donald Trump calls it a war. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth calls it a war. open.substack.com/pub/distills...

This weekend, volunteers knocked more than 800 doors (in the rain!) to talk to Ann Arborites about public power and collect signatures for the ballot initiative. We were joined by Yousef Rabhi, @davez4thepeople.bsky.social and @dylanwegela.bsky.social!

We do not want another war! Congress needs to take back their power and stop Trump's war.

No War with Iran. There is always endless funding for wars and corporations, but never for the American people. It is immoral to profit off of war, and should be illegal.

Thank you to @dylanwegela.bsky.social , @reprashida.govpeeps.us, Indivisible Downriver United 734, and countless others, for pushing back against the Trump regime's push to construct a new ICE concentration camp in Romulus. #AbolishICE michiganadvance.com/2026/02/19/l...

I will do everything within my power to oppose ICE, and I am committed to organizing with my community against ICE.

Even though corporate bosses try to convince us otherwise, it is the labor of working class people that creates all profits. The Sit-Down Strike serves as a reminder that withholding labor is our most powerful tool.

Michigan’s climate legislation was meant to move us toward clean energy over time. However, the legislation has loopholes that will likely be exploited due to hyperscale data centers high energy usage.  planetdetroit.org/2026/01/data...

Today I am 33! Being one of the only people in Lansing to have never taken corporate PAC money, it takes more time to raise money. So if you support my work and want to give me the gift of time, please donate $33 to my campaign relaunch! secure.actblue.com/donate/wegel...

This alone disqualifies Duggan for Governor. We need a governor who isn't beholden to DTE. Insider: Former DTE Energy CEO helping Duggan campaign develop policy plans tinyurl.com/5amcma6u

Wonderful time speaking with the Young Democrats of Michigan at their Demsgiving Fundraiser alongsideState Rep @dylanwegela.bsky.social and Pontiac City Councilman @mikalgoodman.bsky.social!

The moment our Resolution was formally read into the Michigan House. For more than two years, the world has watched a livestreamed genocide.What makes that possible is American-supplied weapons. Michigan taxpayers have contributed over $420 million to the genocide since 2023.

If you are wondering how the Republican controlled Michigan House Oversight is going today. Rep. Jaime Thompson is testifying arguing that LGBTQIA+ students are not being bullied at school. Yet kids are instead bullied for being "pretty".

My statement regarding last nights budget votes. (1/2)

While this “deal” is being announced, I want to make it clear that there are 149 people that get to make this decision not 3. We haven't been provided the details. I look forward to analyzing the budget once it is provided to us.

Standing in solidarity with the Michigan Education Association and AFT Michigan demanding that schools are fully funded and the budget is passed on time! We need to invest in public education not make cuts.

Our government helps fund Israel’s genocide in Gaza. This is immoral & illegal. Electeds & orgs must send a message to MI’s Senators and Reps: demand no more weapons for Israel, allow aid in Gaza, and restore visas for Palestinians.

$40 Billion to one company. $6.24 Billion in state tax breaks. $18 Billion in local tax breaks. $16 Billion in federal tax breaks. With the State portion alone we could buy the Detroit Lions.

We don't have enough money for clean water, fully funded schools, or drivable roads. Yet Michigan’s economic development office offered more than $6 BILLION in corporate handouts to ONE single company, and yet Sandisk still didn't come.

Duggan does not have our interests at heart. Just look to his donors. “A Metro Times analysis of Duggan’s fundraising shows a sizable share comes from donors of President Donald Trump, GOP party leaders, and conservative power brokers with vested interests in state policy.”

Washington D/C has a 30 year low in violent crime.

Federal Republicans just gave one of the largest tax cuts to the rich in US History. Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer and the MEDC offered over $6 BILLION to a single corporation. This is Oligarchy.

Today, Trump’s bill passed the Senate. If it passes in the House it would cut $930B from Medicaid over the next decade. This bill also makes major cuts to SNAP (food stamp) benefits. We are in the middle of budget season in Lansing. (1/2)

The question everyone needs to be asking themselves is: Should presidents alone have the power to enter us into war? The answer is no. Trump just took an illegal action. It cannot stand.

Our fascist president taking an illegal act of war without congressional approval. We have to condemn this. Do we still live in a congressional republic? The American people do not want to be dragged into another endless war.

Just saw a pro War, pro Trump, and pro Netanyahu TV advertisement funded by AIPAC. Don’t fall for it. No war with Iran.

Let what happened today sink in. We have to recognize that we now live under a fascist and authoritarian regime. We have to push back. See you Saturday.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

I say feed the damn kids.

GOP in action. Federally, trying to cut SNAP (supplemental nutrition) by $230 billion over 10 yrs. MI House R’s are trying to remove free breakfast and lunch from schools. Call me a radical if you must…. I say feed the damn kids.

Trump is weaponizing the government by federalizng the National Guard against civilians peacefully protesting. Meanwhile in Michigan’s “Weaponization of State Government” is talking about government overreach related to feral pigs……

We have to stand together to fight Trump and Fascism. June 14th will be a crucial day for us to show up and peacefully demonstrate our dissent. Find a location below: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

The Genocide in Gaza is the defining moral issue of our time. This week I joined the “Point of Disorder” Podcast to discuss it. Check it out: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

We continue to call for an end to the Genocide in Gaza. We cannot allow this injustice to fall out of the zeitgeist.

This is fucking horrifying. As we have been saying for months, it’s a genocide. To refute that or ignore the evil that the Israeli government is perpetuating is simply unconscionable.

This is great news. It takes courage to stand up for what is right. The charges should have never been pursued in the first place. I'm glad the students maintained their innocence and didn't accept a plea deal. www.freep.com/story/news/l...

Our Resolution calling on Trump to be impeached. We turned it in last Thursday, should be read in today. “It is unthinkable that a president would send innocent people to a foreign country’s prison known for its human rights violations.”

The dissent into fascism continues. They are arresting judges now. Who will they come for next? www.nytimes.com/2025/04/25/u...

Abdul El-Sayed has my endorsement for US Senate.

It’s tough for some people to stomach this, but it’s the truth. The US is sending innocent people to a torture and death camp in a foreign country. The Trump administration is ignoring court orders to bring people back and wants to send US citizens there. Time to wake up.
