*This* is how you come into Michigan as an outsider and cover what's actually happening on the ground.
Going where other folks aren't, having the generational conversations, and yes we absolutely do need that lighthouse.
Good read.
My long strange trip from Montana to Youngstown to the Upper Peninsula. We shall encounter UAW workers, AOC, bigots, El-Sayed, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, and a quite amazing Ojibway state house candidate who runs a lighthouse. @RollingStone. Free link. rollingstone.com/politics/po…

NEW: Pope Leo XIV is set to become the first sitting pontiff in the Catholic Church’s two-thousand-year history to vote in a secular election.
Leo requested an Illinois mail ballot on Oct. 3, and it was sent to his brother John’s home in New Lenox, Ill.
John Prevost visited the pope at the Vatican on Wednesday and may now be carrying the ballot back to the Will County clerk by hand. thelettersfromleo.com/p/pope…

@stabenow calling her shot, months ago, that @CallieMBarr could win this. #MI01 is one place where Dems could surprise. Ancestral Dem Seat...
UPDATE: @RepJackBergman’s office responding to an ethics complaint and still not answering basic questions like how much he paid a donor in rent for his D.C. home and how much he pays his daughter after she bought the Capitol Hill rowhouse on a seller-financed land contract that requires no principal until 2033.
Ethics complaint raised another question: Is Bergman’s daughter paying an interest rate below the fair market rate? Not doing would be considered a gift, the ethics complaint said.
Again, Bergman’s office is mum.

I now have two sources close to Susie Wiles who claim that Trump is preparing a vast misinformation campaign for November 4th, built around conspiracy theories alleging widespread election fraud.
The plan? Declare victory regardless of the results, accuse Democratic officials of manufacturing ballots overnight, claim voting machines were secretly manipulated, and demand that Republican candidates refuse to concede.
In this scenario, the goal isn’t to prove fraud. It’s to convince millions of Americans that any election Republicans lose must have been stolen.
And this brat was Captain. 🙄🤦🏻♂️
OTOH, when Larkin sees how Olympia has reneged on District Detroit, he likely thinks, “Why not?”
There were talks in the the last 24 hours between Larkin's camp and the Red Wings, both last night and again this morning, and what was communicated from the agents to Detroit was that Larkin feels he's given the team ample time since his trade request in May to get a deal done. Larkin has had enough, so decision was made he won't play tonight nor for foreseable future hoping a trade materializes. Fluid situation still. Red Wings circling back to teams with interest, etc., as talks escalate.

The butthurt handling of this primary defeat by Haley Stevens and now her fiance after they had tens of millions in outside money spent on her behalf is appalling. The next SecDef or a Trump SCOTUS judge is on the line here! Totally pathetic & reveals that the loss was deserved

Detroit News: Haley Stevens' fiancé says he's voting for Mike Rogers over Abdul El-Sayed

They should do this four times a night I'm not kidding
If this past summer did not convince @DetroitRedWings fans of ownership’s seeming lack of direction, this (utter lack of) creativity seals it. 🙄🤦🏻♂️ #LGRW

Fox’s Joe Davis, Michigan born and raised, just dropped a Harwell: “Like a house by the side of the road.”

Just launched electionhub.org, which puts every key election in one place, shows results in real-time, and calculates majorities and flips.
Both federal and state elections included. Hopefully it makes election night a little easier.

This is so intelligent, I want to cry: The 140 seats won by the student opposition against Serbia's nationalist government party will be taken up not by students, but by academics, professors & public figures from pre-chosen pool of 250 experts, selected by student plenums.

Nazis used to make fun of Jewish Names, just as Trump makes fun of Ilhan Omar's juancole.com/2026/10/nazis-j…

It's fucking crazy that an investigation exposing how Jared Kushner laundered billions if dollars through Azerbaijan, including payments to a warlord, a mercenary, and a hitman, isn't getting more attention.

The President said today that Michigan's Democrat Senate candidate is an Islamist terrorist who shouldn’t be allowed to take his seat if he wins the election.
The President then said that Jewish Americans deserve to be shamed if they choose to vote for the Muslim American candidate.
The Republican Senate candidate running in Michigan refuses to condemn these statements. He claims his opponent has ties to terrorist organizations.
Abdul may not be your cup of tea, you still may have entirely understandable reservations about your choice. Not here to judge.
I'll just say I really think it will matter if Michiganders reject politicians who spew that kind of hateful garbage about one of their own. The stakes are real here.
