Today, families across Michigan woke up to some of the worst air quality in the world as wildfire smoke from Canada and northern Minnesota settled over southeast Michigan.
To all Michiganders, we will get through this.
Very good news in this Change Research poll. While the overall results are a mixed bag, it shows when likely voters are presented the contrast between Jolly and Donalds, we lead 46-40. It also shows the more voters understand Byron's questionable record, the more support we draw.

🇷🇺 In Russland eskaliert die Lage zwischen Putinismus und Pragmatismus.
Wer in Russland gerade aufs Fahrrad steigt, um zur Arbeit zu fahren, fällt für manche Putin in den Rücken – in Sankt Petersburg eskalierte das diese Woche offen auf der Straße.
Die Fahrradverkäufe stiegen im Juni um 131 Prozent gegenüber Mai obwohl Putin sagte, es wäre bald vorbei. Der Glaube an ihn ist endgültig gebrochen.
Mountainbikes machen über die Hälfte aller Bestellungen aus – gekauft als direkter Autoersatz, nicht als Hobby.
Das Fahrrad wird so zum sichtbarsten Symbol dessen, was der Kreml leugnet.
Jeder Radfahrer auf russischen Straßen ist ein rollendes Eingeständnis:
Die ukrainischen Schläge gegen die Raffinerien.
Man kann Fernsehen zensieren, aber keine leere Zapfsäule.

The ICE agent who shot and killed Joan Sebastian Guerrero on Monday has been identified by his ex-wife as 37-year-old David Michael Brouillette.
“He was asking me to lie for him and to cover for his character,” Ashley Brouillette stated to the Portland Press Herald. “I told him that I was not going to lie for him.”
AP News has additionally reported that, according to his close relatives, Brouillette has a “history of terrifying and violent behavior,” especially toward women – with one sharing a voicemail with the outlet from last winter “in which he told her that he thought someone should slit her throat.”
Statement from Annie Farmer on meeting with Todd Blanche:
"After meeting with Todd Blanche, I feel even more confident in urging senators to vote against his confirmation as the United States' Attorney General.
"I found him abrasive, condescending, and intentionally noncommittal to survivors — a marked contrast to his public testimony during his confirmation hearing.
"While quick to point to the failures of previous administrations, he refused to take accountability for mistakes made under his own leadership. Specifically, he would not commit to an inquiry into why my sister Maria Farmer's 1996 report went uninvestigated; he refused to release documents related to internal discussions about charging Epstein that would provide important clarification about previous errors, and his explanations for his nine-hour interview with Ghislaine Maxwell and her subsequent transfer to a less secure facility were wholly dissatisfactory and contrived.
"His evasiveness felt like a deliberate attempt to claim the Attorney General's office is powerless in this matter. By passing the buck once again, he is leaving survivors trapped in the same endless loop of searching for answers and receiving none."

Having a baby bond tucked into a policy package is not the same thing as having a meaningful baby bond policy. If the equalizing piece is small and temporary, it’s not doing the heavy lifting.
