Michigan Republican Rep. Bill Huizenga on Tuesday confirmed that he is interested in potentially running for the U.S. Senate in 2026. "I am," Huizenga answered when asked if he was considering running for the Senate on the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show. "You know, this was not necessarily on my radar screen when I started this." Huizenga represents Michigan's Fourth Congressional District and has been serving in office since 2011. He said that he is considering a Senate run because President Donald Trump needs allies in the upper chamber. Huizenga said he believes that in the midterm elections, Republicans could keep the House and the Senate if they do the work of getting the budget reconciliation process in place and get the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act reinstated. Later, Claire Lopez, a former CIA operations officer and founder of Lopez Liberty LLC, discusses President Trump's upcoming trip to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE. Claire shares insights into the implications of this trip on international relations, particularly regarding the Abraham Accords and the potential for new peace deals in the Middle East. Finally, it's AMAC Wednesday, and AMAC spokesman and Maine Gubernatorial candidate Bobby Charles provides his unique insights on the issues of the day.

Here's the Friday Short for August 16, 2024. Left of Lansing is tired of hearing "old" Republicans complain about MAGA since their actions of the last 50 years led to the MAGA takeover of their political party. However, it's not because they despise the MAGA's policies since there's no daylight between either faction's policies. They despise how upfront and open MAGA is about their policies against working and marginalized Americans, and also their dreams for Christian Nationalist Authoritarianism.  Look at Michigan, where an extreme MAGA faction on the Ottawa County Commission lost its majority, but don't hold your breath for these "old" Republicans to change much in terms of policy. And former Republican Governor Rick Snyder, who once touted himself as a business "nerd" kind of a Republican, is now raising money to put MAGA Republicans in power in the State House.  The transformation is complete. Old Republicans are MAGA.  Same as it ever was. Please, subscribe to the podcast, download each episode, and give it a good review if you can! leftoflansing@gmail.com Left of Lansing is now on YouTube as well! leftoflansing.com NOTES: "With Ottawa Impact set to lose majority on county commission, Dems look to pick up more seats."

Here's episode 89 of Michigan's premier progressive podcast. Happy Conviction Week! Michigan Republicans continue having a collective meltdown after their Dear Leader was found guilty of committing 34 felonies in New York. Republicans call the trial a "sham," and "un-American," as they keep degrading our judicial system. Pat shares the unhinged statements from many Michigan Republicans in both Congress and the state legislature after the verdict. This is part of a pattern by Michigan Republicans to destroy the institutions of our democratic republic. And he calls-out some of these state Republicans, including Congresspeople Jack Bergman, Tim Walberg, and Lisa McClain for putting their party, and Trump, above country.  Democrats had better quickly come to that conclusion, or else they'll find these Christian Nationalists in charge of our national and state governments.  In the "Last Call," Pat asks congressional Democrats to boycott Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address to a joint session of Congress on June 13th. Netanyahu's not only been charged for war crimes over Israel's war in Gaza, but he's been disastrously wrong repeatedly, costing the United States in lives and treasure. No Michigan Democrat should attend this propaganda stunt.  Please, subscribe to the podcast, download each episode, and give it a good review if you can! leftoflansing@gmail.com Left of Lansing is now on YouTube as well! leftoflansing.com

Here's the Left of Lansing "Friday Short" for May 31, 2024 The entire Michigan Republican Party is revealing its fascist and authoritarianism ways by its reactions to Dear Leader Trump being found GUILTY of all 34 felony counts of falsifying financial records to hide his payoffs to a porn star, which influenced the outcome of the 2016 election. The so-called "Law & Order," family values, and personal responsibility party is rallying behind its Dear Leader, proving once again how Republicans never believed in those "values." Their reactions also serve as a reminder on the grasp the extreme Christian Nationalist "America First" movement has on the party.

Greg and Jim dive into the latest conservative victories in the justice system, the Michigan GOP's latest trouble with accusations of  fraudulent signatures, and the rise of college students' mulish insistence on not completing assigned reading.First, they kick off the episode with a double fisted martini: woke Portland DA Mike Schmidt looks like he will be ousted from office for his soft-on-crime policies. Additionally, Georgia Supreme Court Justice Andrew Pinson successfully fended off the challenge of former Rep. John Barrow, who campaigned primarily on a pro-abortion platform.Next, they sigh and shake their heads at the Michigan GOP, which never seems to learn its lesson, as candidates are coming under fire for allegedly committing ballot signature fraud once again. They examine the poor condition that much of state-level GOP management has fallen into, in Michigan and beyond, and why gathering petition signatures is one of the most basic parts of politics.Finally, they find themselves bewildered by the latest trend among college students, who are constantly demanding that professors lower coursework expectations and workload. They point out the paradox that, while Ivy League schools are getting more and more selective, college students across the board are learning less and show poorer work ethic than past generations.Please visit our great sponsors:ZBioticshttps://zbiotics.com/3MLVisit today and save 15% at checkout with code 3ML.  Lumenhttps://lumen.meTake the next step in improving your health.

The results are in from the Michigan primary. Our panel discusses the lessons that Joe Biden and Donald Trump are taking from tonight, and why Nikki Haley isn't going anywhere. And did today's witness in Georgia give lawyers enough evidence to oust DA Fani Willis? And what a longtime tech journalist learned about the "boy kings" of Silicon Valley and the dangers of AI. Steve Kornacki, Mike Memoli, David Jolly, Max Rose, Mark Leibovich, Dave Aronberg, Rep. Debbie Dingell, and Kara Swisher help break it down.

EXCLUSIVE: Sara Gonzales interviews Blaze Media correspondent Steve Baker following a demand from the Federal Bureau of Investigation that he surrender — except the FBI won't tell him what the charges are. Senator Mitch McConnell is stepping down as Republican leader but won't vacate his seat, perhaps because Donald Trump's momentum is building after a landslide win in the Michigan GOP primary over neocon Nikki Haley. Axios reports young voters are turning out for Trump. And a slew of illegal immigrants commit heinous, violent crimes even though they have previously been convicted and released because the courts refused to oblige an ICE detainer. Chief researcher and writer for Glenn Beck Jason Buttrill and BlazeTV contributor Jaco Booyens join the show.

It's been another remarkable week in national and state politics. Nationally,  President Biden takes off the gloves - battering Donald Trump after Trump's vow to abandon our NATO allies if they don't pay protection. The GOP's governing body confirms it is part of the Trump family-run business, confirming his choice for a new Michigan GOP chair … but it's not going to be a peaceful transition of power. James Craig, once again considered a Republican frontrunner, gives up on his 2nd straight statewide campaign and says now he might run for Mayor of Detroit.  A Republican state legislator loses his office and staff after promoting the racist “Great Replacement” theory. Early voting starts Saturday for Michigan's presidential primary … and 1.4-million voters have already requested absentee ballots. Will there be a large crossover vote?  142 new state laws went into effect on Tuesday - their effective dates delayed by a constitutional loophole exploited by legislative Republicans to delay the inevitable. And Mark, always the activist, has filed an ethics complaint against his home-county prosecutor for using government facilities as a campaign prop While most of the media coverage … and our discussions … focus on federal and statewide races, many of the races with the most direct impact on families are local. One of the most important in this election cycle is the effort by Democrats in Macomb County to flip the prosecutor's office. Incumbent Peter Lucido, a MAGA Republican, has been controversial for years with a career highlighted by multiple allegations of sexual harassment, including one complaint filed by a Lansing reporter while he was in the Legislature. Joining the podcast this week is the career prosecutor who is running to remove Lucido: Christina Hines. Right out of law school she became an assistant prosecutor in Wayne County, followed by service as the Chief of the Appeals Division at the Washtenaw County Prosecutor's Office, and Chief of the Special Victims Unit Division. She's a native of Macomb County: born in Warren, a graduate of Warren Woods Tower High School, and then the University of Michigan and Wayne State University law school where she now serves as an adjunct professor of law. The problem with fixing the problem on the southwest border? Donald J. Trump.

A major political party in a major swing state bets on a new leader: a total political outsider. How does that work out for them? Prologue: In 2022, Michigan Republicans ran anti-establishment candidates who claimed the last presidential election was stolen. And they lost big. Now, the state party regroups and must decide whether to stay the course or moderate. (7 minutes)Act One: The Michigan GOP's newly elected leader, Kristina Karamo, faces her first big test: Can she organize and pull off the state party's fabled, expensive Mackinac Island conference as a political outsider – with no fundraising experience or establishment connections? (9 minutes)Act Two: Two young Michigan GOP vice chairs are totally on board with Kristina Karamo's take on politics and hate the establishment like her. So why do they feel iced out by her? (15 minutes)Act Three: At the start of the year, Warren Carpenter was a Kristina Karamo supporter; helped her get elected. Now he's plotting her ouster. (13 minutes)Act Four: Kristina Karamo and her camp defend themselves against Warren's attacks that they're bad at fundraising and bad at leading the party. (13 minutes)Transcripts are available at thisamericanlife.org

It's Thanksgiving and Lewis is getting outta here! Where's he going? Overseas to continue his annual tradition of escaping the holiday by visiting friends internationally. How did this tradition begin you ask? Well, it started years ago when he realized that his family weren't great cooks. This week's rants. Rant #1 – Elliott almost got arrested with her father the way to see Lewis Black. Rant #2 – BJ Terry thinks the internet contains too much useless information and its effecting our youth. He takes an opportunity to prove this theory to his 13 year old grandson at Church. Rant #3 – An anonymous female ranter still has to put up with the bullshit of working in a male-dominated industry. Rant #4 – David H has a bone to pick with the Michigan GOP and for good reason. Rant #5 – Sean Anonymous hates people that treat their dogs like children. Rant #6 – Barry H rants about aging, it turns out that 70 is not the new 20.
