Each day they pump 540,000 barrels -- nearly 1 million gallons of petroleum per hour -- of petroleum products through the pipelines as they take a shortcut from one part of Canada to another by routing it through our state. Here's a map that shows how Line 5 is simply a shortcut through Michigan for Enbridge: Image courtesy of For Love of Water (FLOW) Chris Savage at Eclectablog: Big Oil AstroTurf group comes to the rescue of Enbridge Energy and its ticking time bomb, the 66-year old Line 5 pipeline Ron Fonger at MLive: Flint mismanaged service line replacements, failed to keep promises, judge says Chris Savage can be found on Twitter at @Eclectablog.

Get over it Mike Grunwald at The New York Times: No One Wants to Say ‘Put Down That Burger,' but We Really Should Excerpt: “The basic problem is that we've converted half of Earth's habitable land into agricultural land. We're destroying and degrading the habitats of other species to grow food for our own.” “The crux is that if current eating and farming trends continue, the world will clear land equal to at least one and a quarter Indias by 2050. That would be a disaster for the climate and wildlife, dooming carbon-rich and biodiverse ecosystems like the Amazon and Congo rainforests.” “About a third of the food grown on Earth is lost or tossed before it reaches our mouths, which means a third of the land (as well as the water, fertilizer and other resources) used to grow that food is also wasted.” Beth LeBlanc and Craig Mauger at The Detroit News: Michigan Democrats' first bills include right-to-work repeal, prevailing wage Mitch Smith at The New York Times: Statehouse Democrats Embrace an Unfamiliar Reality: Full Power Chris Savage can be found on Twitter at @Eclectablog.

This week we have a special episode of Draught Politics with our first guest podcaster, Chris from Eclectablog and the GOTMFV Podcast. We met up at one of our favorite taprooms, Twisted Hippo, to talk all about impeachment, the democratic debate, and Michigan politics.

Pat goes on an epic rant against the Michigan GOP's decision to join in the national GOP effort to end the reproductive rights of women. Chris Savage from the progressive Michigan website, Eclectablog (https://www.eclectablog.com/) , joins Pat to further discuss the Michigan GOP's War On Women, and also why Michigan progressives must keep engaged in state politics, Of all weeks, this week illustrates that point. And Pat praises AG Dana Nessel for going after corporations that put PFAS in our water systems.  leftoflansing@gmail.com
