A federal election has never been postponed or canceled in the history of the United States. Ever. And Donald Trump's “evidence” of “Democrat cheating" is entirely fake. There is no mass voter fraud. trib.al/1ewzrp5

When you put it like this, a $75 million bribe to Melania and gutting the Washington Post seems like a small price to pay.

I am grateful for Rev. Jackson’s unwavering commitment to justice, equality and making the world a better place. May his legacy of service live on. www.detroitnews.com/picture-gall...

I was saddened to hear about the passing of the Rev. Jesse Jackson and my heart is with his family— who has so openly and courageously shared what it means to walk the path of caregiving for a parent.

We could declare a housing emergency. We could make health care make sense. But the federal government is not doing those things, and people are not happy.

In his second term, Trump has hit Canada with aggressive tariffs and repeatedly said it should become the “51st state.” In an escalation of this trade war, he’s threatening to stop the opening of a new U.S.-Canada bridge until his demands are met.

Canceling the Gordie Howe Bridge will have serious repercussions. Higher costs for Michigan businesses, less secure supply chains, and ultimately, fewer jobs.

A Pontiac dog rescue success story! Today an Oakland County Water Resources Commission worker (thank you Jim!) was checking the Clinton River drain (where it goes underground) and spotted a trapped dog. He got Oakland County Animal Control on site and we were able to lift this cutie up to safety. 🐶🐾

SLOTKIN: So the fact we have ICE agents saying out loud to people they're trying to arrest that 'we're gonna put you in a database,' they are making that up? LYONS: We do not do that

I support banning the presidential pardon. It’s been abused by both parties.

Inject this straight into my veins. Great article, @dennispillion.bsky.social

I've been getting a lot of requests from reporters for comments about the removal of the DOE Climate Working Group report from the EPA's repeal of the endangerment finding. Here are some comments:

An attorney for Sen. Elissa Slotkin is urging the Justice Department to shut down an investigation into a viral video telling members of the military not to follow "illegal orders" after a federal grand jury in D.C. rejected an attempt to indict her and five other Democrats.

Slotkin looks to make sure DOJ has ended investigation into military video

I read the Trump-backed voter suppression bill, the so-called “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Here’s my summary. Please tell your Senators to vote NO on this abomination: 202-224-3121. TY. 1/

On the heels of the failed indictment this week, today we have yet another victory. I’m thrilled for my friend @captmarkkelly.bsky.social, but more importantly, for the most American of values -- the freedom of speech -- and the Constitution and rule of law. Don’t give up the ship.

The President and his cabinet have suggested having masked ICE agents encircling polling places. It's not fantasy, and it's not made up. And we need to be clear-eyed about that.

Sen. Slotkin: " I appreciate Sen. Tillis saying something. He's gone further than anybody else. But it's a sad moment when anonymous grand jurors, citizens called at random in Washington, D.C., have more bravery to uphold basic rule of law than some of our Senate colleagues."

It was a great Friday afternoon at the Arab American National Museum spending time learning more about the history, culture, and contributions of Arab Americans to our state. The museum is a national leader on telling often untold stories to a wide audience.

“‘I’m not going to be sitting down for this inquiry. I’m not going to legitimize their actions. They’re using physical and legal intimidation to get me to shut up. Until we stand up to this kind of weaponization, it’s just going to keep happening,’ Slotkin warned.” open.substack.com/pub/dworkin/...

It's as clear to me now as it was in 2014 and 2022, we must do EVERYTHING NOW to #StopRussia Almost all allies said "whatever it takes" but they lied. Saturday saw the consequences as another huge missile attack continued the genocide. Catch-up here: bsky.app/profile/twmc...

⚡️Russia launches mass attack on Ukraine, triggers emergency power outages. Russia carried out a mass attack on Ukraine's energy infrastructure in the early hours of Feb. 7, triggering emergency power outages across most regions, Ukraine's state grid operator Ukrenergo said.

I quite often post the map showing approximate flight paths of Russia's missiles and drones after the worst attacks. This time, Ukraine is almost invisible under the multi-coloured lines - I don't remember it being that bad before.

The State of Nebraska passes bill to allow children to be paid less then minimum wage. ‘I am not going to pay a high school kid minimum wage to come in, and I have to tell them three times to empty out the trash'

The extent to which this administration personally targets and continues the assault on people who embarrass and shame it is particularly despicable.

I was glad to have the opportunity to meet with the Lebanese Chief of Defense General Haykal yesterday. Michigan is home to the largest Lebanese-American community in the country, with so many who have deep ties and family trying to make it in this dynamic country.

In case you missed it, Senator Slotkin makes a great point here about how lawyers have advised her to lay low and not make any waves with Trump. And instead, she has done the exact opposite by standing up to him. This is the way. open.substack.com/pub/jimacost...

Today, I sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi and U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro informing them that I will not be sitting down with them for their inquiry over a 90-second video I filmed in November. Here's why.

Trump’s GOP Makeover is Almost Complete open.substack.com/pub/wakeupto...

ICE used to have five months of training, but they've shortened it now to 47 days. The number 47 was picked because President Trump is the 47th president.

Dear Senate Republicans: Now about those ACA tax credits…

Thought we should check in on the total list of legislative flips during Trump 2.0. The tally so far (including tonight): Democrats: 26 flips Republicans: 0 flips
