Director of Local News & Investigations for @MLive. I work with some of Michigan's most talented journalists, covering the state's most important stories.

I remember this weekend. It was quite historic!

A lookback: On March 22, 2014, same-sex marriage was briefly legalized in Michigan. Hundreds of couples rushed to courthouses in four counties to get married while they still could.

I teamed up with @KaytieBoomer to tell those stories:

As Hillsdale College became a central player in partisan battles over education, donations went through the roof.

In 2022, 1,700-student Hillsdale brought in almost as much money as Michigan State.

@TDesOrmeau It’s not Andy’s Pizza.

[Sara Scott @SaraScottMLive]

Agreed. Excellent package!

[Simon D. Schuster @Simon_Schuster]

This reporting from @MattMillerMLive and @mweidmayer is worth your time today. They've been examining policing and police unions in Michigan.

Quote of the day: 'Midwest party in your mouth.'

The first thing to know about the olive sauce at Weston’s Kewpee Sandwich Shoppe in downtown Lansing is that you don’t get to know how they make the olive sauce. https://t.co/fZG8ruNita

Interesting case out of Grand Rapids.

[Matt Miller @MattMillerMLive]

ADAC Automotive, a Grand Rapids-area auto supplier, has been accused by a Kansas startup of stealing its intellectual property. https://t.co/JsO88QTAFM

@Audra_Gamble @shmurph5 Sorry, it’s gotta be Meko.

[Matt Miller @MattMillerMLive]

An MSU professor made students pay $99 each to sign up for her activist website. Now two of them are suing. https://t.co/P8LWNo2XC1

Need help identifying this invasive species in my yard.

[Lucas Smolcic Larson @Lucasgsl6]

This spring, Julie Ohashi founded a political organization in Livingston County that pushed for a schools millage, which had come under fire from some GOP leaders.

Then, a hate symbol appeared near her backyard.

@madelineawarren @flintjournal @MLive Welcome to MLive, @madelineawarren!

We know that teachers have faced immense, longstanding challenges that were only exacerbated by the COVID pandemic. If you are a Michigan teacher who recently said "enough is enough," I would love to hear from you about why.

[Sara Scott @SaraScottMLive]

@emilyjanelawler Boo! Feel better soon!

[Matt Miller @MattMillerMLive]

An article by MSU economist Mark Skidmore stoked COVID vaccine fears. Now it’s being retracted. https://t.co/4TR82j9336

@JustinPHicks I'll take a large glass, please.

[Sara Scott @SaraScottMLive]

@TDesOrmeau @Kzoo_Gazette @MLive So excited to see you grow in this new position, @TDesOrmeau. Great news for @MLive and for Kalamazoo!

[Sara Scott @SaraScottMLive]

Who bankrolls Michigan lawmakers' campaigns? Not the folks the represent. Really insightful work here from campaign finance guru @Simon_Schuster.

[Simon D. Schuster @Simon_Schuster]

In the first analysis of its kind in Michigan, I coded nearly every 2022 legislative donation to the donor’s district to examine if legislators fundraised significantly from people they ran to represent.

For all but two legislators, the answer is no. https://t.co/ghtkcXj02E

[Sara Scott @SaraScottMLive]

Great story. Looking forward to these lesson plans.

@BenjaminSRaven You’re doing great work!

An extremely important package on an issue that will be front-and-center in Michigan in the years to come. Kudos to @_lindsaymoore and @sherimcwhirter for their excellent reporting, and @DanielleMSalis for her editing and leadership on this project.

[Lindsay Moore @_lindsaymoore]

Michigan is a climate haven.

The Great Lakes state will fare much better in a warming world. We have room to grow both physically and population wise.

As wildfires, drought and hurricanes increase we're expected to get millions of new neighbors. @MLive
