If he looks anything like he did before retiring, this is a monumental, potentially season-altering piece of news. IOL has been an issue in basically every Lions loss.

Gonna be thinking about this lede for a minute.

Glad we didn’t though! 😉

I can’t believe my Tigers could lose 9 straight home games to end the season…

Today marks the first day in public media’s history without federal funding. And we’re not going anywhere.

Listeners like you keep our mission alive. Protect one of the last places where America comes together to hear itself.

Matt Walsh: Horrific. The whole thing. Pope Leo blesses a block of ice and then stands there while these communist freaks do some kind of weird pagan Earth worshipping hippy ritual. The leader of the Catholic Church shouldn’t be anywhere near this nonsense. What the hell are we doing here @CatholicSat: The Blessing of the Waters by Pope Leo XIV, at today’s ‘Raising Hope for Climate Justice’ International Conference at Castel Gandolfo.

Far-right Catholics freaking out about the Pope doing normal Pope things will always be entertaining.

The Pope blessed some water? Can you even imagine?

Love the decision, love the playcall, love the throw. Dan Campbell forever.

You deserve a break on Sundays that doesn’t break the bank.

Pure, unmitigated rage coursing through my body over a call in a game I have zero investment in…football officially back 😍

Another shooting. This time in a Catholic school in Minneapolis.

It shouldn’t be normal to see 5th graders give TV interviews describing seeing their friends shot.

None of this is normal. This is not inevitable. This is a policy choice. Enough.

Next week, I’ll introduce a bill to prohibit the unlawful deployment of the National Guard to Michigan. #MILeg #NoKings

You’re not angry for no reason.
You’re angry because you care.

@moveon.org has the people.
@runforsomething.net has the plan.

Now we’re coming together to help YOU turn that frustration into power.

🗓️ Aug 18 @ 8PM ET— join our kickoff call.

🗣️ Stop waiting. Start running.

Some of the people who signed up to run for office with us? They’ve never done this before. But they care about their communities. And they show up. You can too.

Two progressive powerhouses. One mission. 💥

We’re teaming up with moveon.org‬ and tapping into their membership to recruit the next wave of young local leaders ready to transform government from the ground up.

Let’s build the bench: https://wapo.st/4mj0wH4

Last week we launched a new community for folks thinking about running for office—and the feedback’s already 🔥:

“Just getting started on the Ready to Run training! My inner child and outer hopeful progressive is very excited!”

Step Into Power: Launching RFS’s New Training & Mentorship Community · Run for Something Zohran Mamdani’s victory shows that young people are ready to take the reins. They’re raising their hands to run as their leadership fails them and mobilizing to elect candidates who offer a new, bold...

On Tuesday, @runforsomething.net is launching our NEW pipeline community -- an incredible *free* space for people thinking about running for office to learn more, talk to mentors & each other, and get support from our team. Join the call. www.mobilize.us/runforsometh...

Donald Trump can’t erase our history or our communities just by changing a website. But this should remind all of us that none of us are safe until all of us are safe.

Always true but especially true today: The only places we’re going to see meaningful progress for the next few years are state and local govts. Every local leader matters.

The fact that JD Vance cast the tie-breaking vote to gut Medicaid and SNAP after he talked about how much the community he grew up with benefitted from those programs in his crappy book has, I’m pretty sure, earned him a special place in hell.

SCOTUS is using the least serious arguments to erase LGBTQ+ people from everywhere they can, including schools. Now would be a good time to read Lawless by @leahlitman.bsky.social if you haven’t yet.

Progressive Group: 50,000 New People Have Signed Up To Run For Office Since Nov.

More than 50,000 new people have signed up to run for office since Trump's election in November, an unprecedented spike in young Democrats interested in seeking public office for the first time, says the progressive group Run for Something. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

An important thing to remember in light of SCOTUS’ ruling on gender affirming care for minors: it does not ban this care. It allows states to enact laws to ban it. Michigan does not have such a law, and gender affirming care should still be available. 🏳️‍⚧️

Breaking: The Trevor Project received a stop-work order last night on its contract with the national 988 suicide prevention hotline. The Trump administration is eliminating the option for LGBTQ callers to the hotline to press 3 and connect with someone who specializes in LGBTQ mental health.

I am excited to announce that I have been endorsed by Planned Parenthood Advocates of Michigan! I am a strong advocate for reproductive freedom for all. #AlexKingforLivonia

Today I took part in a press conference calling for peaceful protest in response to Donald Trump’s use of military force against Americans. This is straight out of a fascist playbook and cannot be normalized. We have no kings in the United States.

Immigrants who are following what they are supposed to do by showing up to their immigration hearings at the courthouse, are being arrested by ICE in Detroit today.

This is appalling, and it is happening right here in Michigan.

This is what happens without the sensitive locations policy. #momsky

Whether you can openly celebrate Pride or not, we are here for YOU!

One more photo I wasn’t able to share due to the limit. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

I had a great time at my first Motor City Pride since coming out as bi this February! Great to see legislative champions of equality as well.

I’m excited to receive an endorsement from @mikalgoodman.bsky.social, a strong progressive and working class champion. #AlexKingforLivonia
