@BostonGlobe@greenpeaceusa I bring a rebag every where. I shop bulk & bring containers. I bring a reusable bottle everywhere to refill with H2O and one for coffee.

When Pete Buttigieg comes for someone, he doesn’t carry a sledgehammer…he wields a scalpel.
And in this must-see clip, Pete slices Ron DeSantis into a million little pieces.
THIS JUST IN: U.S. Sens. Debbie Stabenow and Gary Peters today announce U.S. Dept. of Transportation will grant Michigan Dept. of Transportation $104M to "reconnect the neighborhoods destroyed" by I-375 in Detroit. Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has a presser on the subject at 10 a.m.
