Day 2 of the unit launch @openscied big take aways “it’s hard to think like a kid” and “this process is going to take time for both teachers and students”. We need to normalize the idea that making mistakes is ok!

@GovWhitmer This tweet is incoherent and simply not true. Anyone who is living where these manufacturing plants are being built knows it is anything but environmentally friendly… an MSU professor has said that the location of them is environmentally irresponsible.😡
@A_Jay517 In the last few days MADEA, the MEDC, and Ford have filed an intervention. So now our court case is our group vs the city of Marshall vs MADEA vs MEDC vs Ford… so much for this to be a local issue. Whitmer has weponized the MEDC against our community. When all we want is to vote
@A_Jay517 In Marshall, we constantly asked for a referendum. Our local officials said no. We reached out to the governor. She said it was a local issue. We created and circulated a petition where the city clerk threw out hundreds of signatures illegally, we r taking the city to court (1/2)
@bsamster1@SullyCNBC@SRuhle They have no problem taking billions of taxpayer dollars in Michigan this year for a plant that is being forced on Marshall residents. Each promise they have made to our community has been broken. Now they refuse to come talk to us. Sorry if I don’t trust their leadership.
Ford laying off 'at least' 1,000 salaried and contract workers.
It will lose $3 billion making EVs this year.
Ford is now likely losing more than $30,000 on every electric it sells.
Last week the federal government (i.e. you) loaned Ford and a South Korean company $9.2 billion to build battery factories in the south, on top of federal tax credits to entice buyers.
The next few years should be interesting for Detroit (and taxpayers)
Let's see if its .. sustainable.

@SMCKSMCKSMCK@PaulJElliott@GovWhitmer This type of growth is unsustainable and it makes communities more dependent on big business when they leave (which they always do) https://t.co/H0QGyDrSdK
The struggles of electric vehicles and gas-powered vehicle markets is making it tough on automakers to invest in one while maintaining the other. https://t.co/fEBZfpO8Zh
I am hearing from many workers on the inside of the big three that they are not happy with their companies move towards electric vehicles. They worry it will continue to eliminate jobs, and that people will just not buy them like the government is hoping.
This visualization ... using the visual metaphor of looking out the porthole of a boat and watching years of sea level rise transpire. When played on a 4K 85" display, the measurement markings in the video are accurate to the real world.

Americans have a Constitutional right to petition government for a redress of grievances. Why did the Marshall City Council fail to respond to a petition from over 800 city residents who are opposed the megasite project⁉️ A recall campaign is an option. ⏰ https://t.co/JKRWqICFhN
