Congresswoman Haley Stevens is considering a run for the U.S. Senate in 2026, eyeing the seat currently held by Senator Gary Peters, who will not seek re-election. Stevens criticized President Trump and Elon Musk's impact on government and pointed to the effects of tariffs on Michigan manufacturers. The prime suspect in the death of a Kansas City television reporter covering the Super Bowl in New Orleans has been charged with murder. Danette Colbert, the last person seen with the victim, is facing property crime charges, while the suspect, Adan Manzano, had drugs in his system and personal items found at Colbert's apartment.

The Dumbest Trade War in History (Guest: Congressional candidate Alex Hawkins)

Jack Ohman - Tribune Content Agency Donald Trump inherited a booming economy from Barack Obama in 2017. It took him three years and one botched pandemic response to send it spiraling towards recession. He's learned from his first-term mistakes. This time, he inherited an economy the Economist magazine called the envy of the world and has managed to tank it in a matter of just weeks. This time, in between rounds of golf and incessant posting on social media, Donald Trump has managed to take down Wall Street and Main Street by declaring financial war on countries who thought we were allies. The political repercussions have begun with Trump's polling numbers tanking, and a majority of Americans for the first time disapproving of his handling of the economy. The vast majority also oppose most of the Musk-led chainsaw massacre of federal employees. The end game? Trump and Musk appear to be setting the stage for privatizing things like the Weather Bureau, FAA, K-12 education and the long-sought GOP dream: privatizing Social Security so they and their billionaire buddies can wet their beaks dipping into literally trillions of spending over the coming decades. In Michigan, 20 months before the election polling shows Jocelyn Benson with a sizable lead in the Democratic gubernatorial race, and Pete Buttigieg the strongest candidate for U.S. Senate - but he's announced he's not running for either the Senate or Governor. We do, however, have another entrant into the Democratic race for Governor: Lt. Governor Garland Gilchrist. The challenge for Gilchrist: can the tallest candidate (6'9") in the mix overcome the longstanding Michigan history that has doomed the gubernatorial aspirations of Lt. Governors for the last 30 years? The list of would-be Lt. Governors seeking the top job is long, distinguished ... and uniformly unsuccessful: Jim Brickley (1982) Dick Posthumus (2002) John Cherry (2010) Brian Calley (2018) The last Lt. Governor to advance via election was John Swainson in 1960. Lt. Governor William Milliken inherited the job when George Romney resigned in 1969 to join the Nixon cabinet, and went on to serve 14 years as perhaps the best Governor in Michigan's modern history. 20 months before the election, polling shows Jocelyn Benson with a sizable lead in the Democratic gubernatorial race, and Pete Buttigieg the strongest candidate for U.S. Senate. This week's guest is an early entrant into the race to flip. Michigan's 10th district. Onetime military helicopter pilot John James has run for office, losing twice for U.S. Senate and winning two terms in Congress. In each case, the elections were extremely close. But as every politician knows, close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. Our guest this week can offer first-hand testimony on the latter - hand grenades. He's an expert in the subject. Joining the podcast is political newcomer Alex Hawkins. He served in the Middle East as a U.S. Army "Explosive Ordnance Disposal" Officer. He continues as an Active Duty Veteran and Oakland County Reserve Sheriff's Deputy. His resume includes working on the staffs of both then-Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin and Senator Gary Peters. Hawkins, 30, is a 2021 graduate of Central Michigan University. He and his wife Amanda live in Rochester Hills.

Krassenstein talks about many things, including the challenges of right-sizing streets built to accommodate more vehicles in an era before freeways were built, how safe mobility and accessibility play into the recovery of the city's neighborhoods, and the innovative thinking going into the I-375 and US-12 (Michigan Avenue) projects.Last May, Sen. Gary Peters invited Krassenstein to testify before the Subcommittee on Surface Transportation, Maritime, Freight and Ports on the subject of community solutions to the roadway safety crisis.Krassenstein explains why this is so important as part of those efforts to right-size some streets and make for safer crossings.

Gary Varvel - Creators Donald Trump made a lot of campaign promises, big and small. Many of them are pure fantasy and destined to fail. Remember Trump's 2016 promise to replace Obamacare with something “less expensive and better”? Or his regular proclamations of “Infrastructure Week”? He'd learned from earlier failures. With the price of eggs soaring despite his promise to immediate reduce grocery prices, including eggs, his latest Press Fantasy Writer (a.k.a. Press Secretary) laid the blame on Biden for the killing of millions of laying hens to combat Bird Flu. We can expect the same when inflation is reignited by Trump's tariffs and tax cuts, his promised ending of taxes on tips and social security don't happen, and on and on: it's all the fault of a mess Joe Biden left behind.Just today (Thursday) Trump laid the blame for the tragic D.C. plane crash on the hiring policies of Presidents Obama and Biden in a fact-free rant they called a news conference. The other Trump tactic already on full display: take credit for things he did not actually do. His first biggie: claiming he's responsible for turning some valves to restore water supplies for southern California. It didn't happen. The Michigan political landscape underwent an earthquake this week with Gary Peters' announcement that he won't run for reelection in 2026. It has implications not just for the Senate, but also for Michigan's congressional delegation and the race for Governor. We will be joined by state capitol politics guru Kyle Melinn from the MIRS news service to dissect the overlapping impacts. Joining the conversation is MIRS News editor Kyle Melinn. Kyle Melinn is the editor and Vice President of the MIRS Newsletter, a daily on-line political news service covering state government and politics.

He next turns his attention to Michigan Democrats in Congress, like Congresswoman Kristin McDonald-Rivet of Bay City, who still defends her vote on the Lakin Riley Act, which removes basic due process rights for migrants accused of crimes. Michigan Democratic Senators Elissa Slotkin and Gary Peters also voted for the bill in Senate. Pat wonders how being MAGA-Lite, and refusing to protect the vulnerable in society, will benefit Democrats. And that's why Pat explains why Senator Peters' announcement that he won't run for reelection in 2026 will only help Michigan Democrats. 14:17-38:57: Peter Sinclair Interview Peter Sinclair is an environmental activist, climate change educator, a science journalist, videographer from Midland, and host of the This Is Not Cool blog. Mr. Sinclair recently covered a recent disinformation campaign launched by the fossil fuel industry, and pushed by right-wing think tanks and MAGA Michigan Republicans, regarding a solar farm around the Gaylord area. The "story" went viral in pushing a false story that a clean energy company was clearing-out 420 acres of pristine forestland to build a solar farm. In reality, the company scrapped the original plan to build a farm on public land, and instead chose private land for the farm. And no massive deforestation project is going to happen as a result of this solar farm. Mr. Sinclair explains how the anti-clean energy forces depend on this kind of confusing propaganda campaigns to drive people away from clean energy. Check out his YouTube page, too! 38:58-45:41: Last Call-Zeldin As EPA Head In the "Last Call," Pat talks about the U.S. Senate confirming a pro-fossil fuel, and climate change denier, Lee Zeldin to become the head of the Environmental Protection Agency. Even worse, three Democratic Senators voted to confirm Zeldin, who has a 14% lifetime score from the League of Conservation Voters!

Today, we discuss two major news stories affecting Michigan, but have national ties. The first is a sudden federal government funding freeze, the second is the announcement that US Senator Gary Peters will not be seeking reelection. The federal funding freeze has caused confusion and chaos at government and non-profit organizations and may impact school lunches, veteran's services, affordable housing, and other services. Second, Senator Gary Peters's surprise decision to not seek re-election has prompted some potential contenders to announce their interest in his vacant seat, including Pete Buttigieg.
