Abortion is on the ballot in Michigan. Game Set Match for Whitmer.

If she accepted Sterns invitation to his show, this is what you would have had.

First born is heir now, but there are a few generations of first born males already in line. If the Monarchy holds on, it's only a matter of time.

The Trump unity bridge travels around mostly southeastern Michigan. It's a complete shitshow. The Drew and Mike podcast regularly reaches out to the guy, he still hasn't realized they are mocking him.

Right at the end they have an angle on Shane with a blurred Pat Smear in the background and he's got the biggest smile in the world.

I'm surprised no one has talked about this. I'm trying to get through the full concert, i'm about 2 hours in and it's been fantastic. This, rightfully so, won the twitterverse related to this show. I don't think Grohl lied when he said he's never seen anyone hit the drums as hard as this kid.

If so, Whitmer minds well stop campaigning as there would be no reason to waste funds on a race you already won.

i'm very confident I had it about 4-6 weeks ago, especially as I hung out with my brother (and shared a room) on a family reunion trip last week and didn't get sick as he went from completely fine on a Friday night, to chills/fever as he woke up Saturday. 4-6 weeks ago I had the same symptons as him, 1.5 days of a sore throat, .5 days of chills feeling warm/cold inside those 1.5 days. By day 2, felt pretty good, day 3, felt fine. Hope the same for you.

Maybe I just live in a different world. If my elected official, regardless of the party they are in, have family members getting 100k gifts out of the kindness of someone's heart, I want that scrutinized.

WAPO confirmed thousands of the emails, including the one I have mentioned. Freeh gave the money to Biden's grandkids as he's asking an eager Hunter for a chance to meet with his Dad. That's old school political bribing. You can argue that it's not black and white and technically this or that, but it's bullshit. You know it, I know it. As i've said, if you want to whatabout this and point to Trump being a bigger corrupt politician, I can't argue with that. Jared, as it appears, did nothing illegal either in regards to the Saudi 2 billion, but in a perfect world, he's in jail over it right now. I guess the biggest thing about the Hunter stuff isn't that it should/shouldn't be a bigger story over X, Y, or Z, but that so many people actually think the laptop is fake news still.

If a city of warren businessman that might do business with the city at some point gave Fouts 100k and said 'whatever you choose to do in the future, i'd just like to work with you', you would be good with that? I have a customer that is a government agency, if I saw one of their employees at Starbucks on my lunch and paid for their coffee I could face consequences.

Whatever, I know your MO.

You're honestly telling me that if it came out that someone gave a Pence family member 100k, made a point to tell his kids, and ask them to tell Pence he would look forward to working with him in the future, you would be fine with no one questioning it?

Yup... most of the laptop is just crude Hunter Biden porn/crap, but there are definitely some things that would at least raise some eyebrows. Luckily the MSM worked with the Biden Administration and the 50 top former intel officers to convince the majority of people there was nothing to see there. And again, I agree wholeheartedly with the 'whatabout Trump and/or his kids'. I will happily punch down my vote for a old school semi-crooked politician in Biden over seditious F@#&$'s.

I mean, there is some evidence of your standard political unethical behavior combined with some money exchanging that you'd certainly question if it was someone from a party you didn't like....but in the grand scheme of things, it's just your basic run of the mill indication of political cronyism that I'm sure most of us would like to go back to.... the good ole days if you will.

Actually many people have talked about Jared's deal and the stuff with Ivanka. In her case, the full story indicated nothing wrong with Ivanka, that's why you didn't hear more of it, because it was fully vetted. In Jared's case, it's sickening and much worse than the Hunter Biden stuff even if it turns out to be true that 'The Big Guy' was in fact Biden (which deep down we all know it was) and POTUS did in fact have business ventures with China that were hidden and lied about. So to answer your whatabout, yes, what you mention are things that should be explored via the news and not censored (which they were not) by the MSM and social media outlets.

https://www.business-standard.com/article/technology/zuckerberg-admits-censoring-hunter-biden-laptop-story-for-a-week-122082600097_1.html I know most will dismiss this as it's Hunter Biden, but the fact that so many news organizations and social media outlets completely shut it down, or as Facebook admits now, limited it's spread, based on information from the FBI and not by verifying it themselves, is pretty scary.

In regards to Oblong's question, you're right, they would say so. But if instead of the government doing anything about the price, they just said they would pay it on behalf of the users for a year, Big Pharma would absolutely love that. In fact, why just do it once, if the people like it, keep doing it.....even better.

I'm in Macomb county, Marlinga is just a name that is known which is good as James is now known too. Does the name Marlinga carry any weight in Oakland county though? Guess that is the question. Biggest key I see in those stats are the unfavorable numbers. Not a whole lot of voters turned off just by his name, unlike James.

This student loan thing irks me, not so much from the angle that many of the republicans complain, although I agree that it will definitely be unfair to some and aide others that it really shouldn't, in the end though, the burden is too high. What irks me, is instead of the government trying to tackle some issues on why tuition costs are so high, or things like do you really need a "fake" masters degree to be a teacher. The government helped push higher education to steer the US towards a service economy in the last few decades, but it hasn't done anything since to try and improve from there. Instead of looking at it, we're just going to throw money at it and the problem will remain.

Even if Trump wanted to make the claim that simply taking the documents meant they were no longer classified or now the 'standing order', could you not simply imply by the executive branch raiding his residence for those documents that the current president implied they are now classified again? I'd say normally that's not allowed, or I guess able to do, as declassified documents are open to the public, but as Trump never opened them to the public, can't see why Biden couldn't classify them again.

https://www.bridgemi.com/michigan-government/james-craig-accused-gathering-fake-signatures-bid-make-michigan-ballot Leduff was hard on Craig and Johnson, blaming their campaigns for not properly vetting and getting enough valid signatures. In each of their cases they were well short of the maximum you're allowed to turn in. Dixon and Whitmer both submitted the max amount allowed. In following up, Leduff stated he asked around and both Dem and GOP contacts said it's always been known the government entity that certifies the signatures basically rubber stamps them. Still, ultimately the fault was Craig and Johnson not working to ensure whatever third party they had working for them was getting them the results they paid for. I'm not trying to both sides it. But again, if they all use the same third parties to get signatures, it makes sense they all have the same issues. Leduff asked the Whitmer admin if they scrubbed signatures and only submitted those they didn't have an issue with and never received an answer.

I believe it was the Michigan Democratic party that challenged Craig and that 'quality guru' guy, whatever his name was. I think Dixon even jumped on the bandwagon to help them out. Whitmer was smart enough to provide the max amount of signatures. Again, they use the same third party companies that organize these signature drives. There absolutely was some of the same issues for Whitmer's signatures as Craig's. Sounds like this was well known in political circles that a good amount of these signatures were either not properly documented or outright fraudulent, but they were never challenged. The Dem party chose to strategically point it out against specific people at a specific time. Smart political move, but it's also going to force them to use more campaign funds in the future to vet signatures they get before submitting them to the state. As I stated earlier, it's a good thing.

This is definitely going to be a bigger story. The dems going after Chief Craig is a good thing IMO, but it's going to screw both parties come next election. Both parties use the same 3rd party companies to get signatures, both knew they were a joke, but the dems were smart enough to use it against the opponent at the last second. The GOP will definitely scrutinize the Dems next time around.
