    172: Monday Musing: Weird MAGA Will Run Republicans Even After Trump
    Sep 16 2024
    Here's the Left of Lansing Monday Musing for September 16, 2024!

    There's a belief that the weird, warped, right-wing MAGA will disappear after Dear Leader is defeated and gone.

    Nothing could be further from the truth.

    Just look at the absurd lengths many in MAGA World will go to protect Dear Leader Trump now. That kind of absurdity will not end After Trump for them.

    Why?

    Because MAGA has always been what the Republican Party is all about, and will always be about.

    Make no mistake!

    171: Friday Short: Another Example Of Why Florida Mike Rogers Is The Worst
    Sep 13 2024
    Here's the Left of Lansing "Friday Short" for September 13, 2024!

    There's an important U.S. Senate race in Lansing between Democratic Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin and MAGA Republican "Florida" Mike Rogers.

    The winner of the race takes the seat of retiring Democratic Senator Debbie Stabenow.

    There's a slew of reasons as to why Florida Mike is the wrong choice for Michigan, and the rest of the country.

    But a recent expose by Bridge Magazine detailing how Rogers played a role in the nation's opioid crisis, while raking-in tons of campaign cash from the pharmaceutical industry, provides further illustration on the kind of person Rogers truly is.

    170: Episode 102: Harris Destroys and Embarrasses Dear Leader In Debate
    Sep 12 2024
    Here's Episode 102 of Michigan's Premier Progressive Podcast!

    00:00-23:27: Harris-Trump Debate Reaction

    In the first segment, Pat begs the Elissa Slotkin campaign to help push her candidacy for the U.S. Senate by sending-out yard signs to rural Democrats across the state. It's a crucial race, and we progressives want to help her defeat "Florida" Mike Rogers. Then, Pat gives his reactions to the Presidential Debate in which Kamala Harris made minced meat of Donald Trump. No wonder he doesn't want any more debates unless some right-wing media hacks moderate it.

    23:28-32:01: Last Call: Michigan's Clean Energy Economic Boon

    Next, Pat highlights an article by Michigan Advance's Kyle Davidson, which details how Michigan's clean energy policies are providing an economic boon! Thanks to clean energy bills passed by state Democrats, and by congressional Democrats, Michiganders will save on their energy bills in the future. These initiatives are also providing thousands of clean energy jobs while making Michiganders healthier! Had MAGA Michigan Republicans been in-charge, we'd be stuck in a 20th Century economy.

    32:02-34:41: Ending and Go Tigers!
