Feds' order to halt closure of aging Michigan coal plant is illegal, plaintiffs tell judges

Michigan is suing the energy department over their "emergency order" keeping the J.H. Campbell coal plant online. There's clearly no emergency, and Consumers Energy has had to spend an additional $180 million so far to keep the plant online when they really want to shut it down. Oral arguments were heard on Friday.

Wayne County sued over 'secret' bus tax meeting

Attorney Matthew Wilk, the guy leading the Not SMART Wayne opposition group to the potential SMART bus expansion, has filed a lawsuit against the Wayne County Transit Authority. He alleges that the meeting for the ballot language was done in secret. He wants a judge to declare that the Wayne County Transit Authority violated Michigan's open meetings law when it approved language for a countywide millage that would subsidize SMART bus services, and for the judge to invalidate any actions the authority took during the March meeting.

Haley Stevens Really Gets the Pulse of the Democratic Voting Base

After all, only a smart candidate like her would decide to be part of a joint AIPAC fundraising portal with Republican Senator Susan Collins.

Seriously, I hope they both lose their races by a landslide.

No this isn't anything to do with Trump. Good article from CBC on work that still needs to be done before the bridge opens. The interview was interesting to listen to as well.
