@SHDetroit an often overlooked issue is the importance of having a well drafted estate plan in place. People want to avoid probate court during their lifetime and need powers of attorney for financial and medical decisions @wdet #detroittoday

It is March and there have been 129 mass shootings already this year 129 Including one that killed three 9 year olds today Just let that sink in This is a crisis

HORRIFYING - while Jewish parents were dropping their kids off at Temple Beth El daycare in Bloomfield Hills, MI earlier this morning, a man in the white van outrageously screams “F*ck the Jews” and “F*ck Israel” while driving by.

@AnnWarner_JD Where are you heading?

What will Prop 3 do?
#Proposal3 is a middle-ground solution that makes Michigan’s 1931 abortion ban unenforceable. It’s the ONLY WAY to protect women’s reproductive health care this Election Day. Vote #YesOn3 Nov. 8th. #RestoreRoe

I did not need the permission of my local political leader to get my vasectomy. I was treated as an autonomous adult, capable of making my own informed medical decision. It was between me and my doctor. Everyone deserves the rights over their own bodies.

[Howard Collens @howardcollens]

@DrSap4UM A great call. The falls of my youth were spent listening to Ufer's enthusiasm for U of M football. This clip also reminds that Bubba Paris was a man among boys

[Howard Collens @howardcollens]

Such an amazing play. As a member of the @umichband that afternoon, gotta say- we sounded pretty good.

[Dr. Sap @DrSap4UM]

1990 (#1) Michigan vs MSU
Not only was this a great, back & forth game to watch, the late & great Keith Jackson did the play by play. When @DesmondHoward returned a kickoff 94 yards for a TD to tie the game, it looked & sounded like this…
I see you @YaleVan !
Enjoy & GO BLUE!!

Here’s Whitmer going after Dixon on guns

@DrSap4UM Hearing a touchdown call by the incomparable Bob Ufer takes me back to my youth. Other bygone elements of that video - the extra low walls in the stadium and the Sparty Band sitting on the sideline. Thanks for sharing.

[Howard Collens @howardcollens]

There are very few crossroads moments in life. This is one if them.

[Mallory McMorrow @MalloryMcMorrow]

Bring your own hot dogs (BYOHD) and join me, Tim Robinson and @SamRichardson THIS WEDNESDAY NIGHT. That’s right. We’re getting DETROITERS back together and we’re flipping the Senate.

(I can’t believe this is really happening and I CANNOT WAIT)
