In December 2020, Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson was decorating the family Christmas tree with her 5-year-old son when she heard a crowd outside her home chanting "Stop the Steal!" In the days and weeks that followed, Donald Trump harassed her on social media, calling for her arrest and accusing her of treason, Benson alleges.On this week's Reasonably Happy podcast, Benson--who is now running for governor--joins Paul Ollinger to discuss how she modernized the DMV, what it feels like to be targeted by the President of the United States, and why the Democrats' murky future. Paul pushes her to take a stand against a party that keeps falling on the sword of cultural issues with which most of America disagrees, opening the door for the very President who tried to intimidate her. Unfortunately, Benson waffles on subjects like biological males in girls' sports and the fact that most college campuses have been captured by progressive ideology. Still, it's an interesting conversation with a rising political star who, if she can stand up to her party the way she stood up to Trump, could be a solid mainstream candidate someday.Read Paul's Substack here:: Http://words.paulollinger.com

It's ok to feel scared right now. To be angry and frustrated and not know what to do. It's fine to have those feelings, but as Michigan Secretary of State, and leading candidate for Governor, Jocelyn Benson asks, what do we do next?

Here are 3 big things you need to know—   One — Stellantis is temporarily laying off 900 employees in response to President Trump's tariff announcement.  The layoffs will impact workers at five of the automaker's U.S. facilities.  Stellantis also announced it will be pausing production at two of its plants in Canada and Mexico.  In a letter to employees, the company said it's assessing the medium and long-term effects of the tariffs on operations.  .   Two ----  President Trump says the tariffs imposed on other countries are working, and he is ready to make some deals.  Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump said his initial tariff plan is over, and he's watching it settle in.  He said every country has called, asking to cut a trade deal with the U.S. to avoid the tariffs.    And number three —   A months-long review by the Michigan Secretary of State's office has identified 15 individuals who allegedly are not U.S. citizens but still cast ballots in the November presidential election in Michigan. That's according to the Detroit News. The 15 people are in addition to a University of Michigan student from China who allegedly voted illegally in  October.

Let the crazy begin in earnest! Historian Doris Kearns Goodwin called Lincoln's cabinet the “Team of Rivals”. Aretha Franklin's classic could well be the title of a new book about the Trump team as Trump loads up his administration with mostly unqualified toadies. As of recording time, Matt Gaetz stands at the top of the mountain of WTF nominees with Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard, Kristi Noem, Mike Huckabee and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. hot on his heels. MAGAs in Florida are pushing Governor Ron Desantis to name Lara Trump as Marco Rubio's replacement in the Senate. Really. Melania Trump, meanwhile, is carving a new path for first ladies, apparently treating the White House as her personal AirBNB and living wherever he isn't. In Michigan, the 2026 campaign has begun:  Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan says he won't run for reelection … with everyone speculating he'll instead run for Governor With a deep bench standing by, the race for Governor could be a battle of political heavyweights. We'll do some name-dropping and early handicapping of that field, as well as the possibilities for Detroit Mayor, Michigan Secretary of State…and the Republicans who might want to be Governor Michigan Democrats have another major decision awaiting as Lavora Barnes, the universally praised chair of the party announces she's stepping down after six years in the job. =========================== This episode is sponsored in part by EPIC ▪ MRA, a full service survey research firm with expertise in • Public Opinion Surveys • Market Research Studies • Live Telephone Surveys • On-Line and Automated Surveys • Focus Group Research • Bond Proposals - Millage Campaigns • Political Campaigns & Consulting • Ballot Proposals - Issue Advocacy Research • Community - Media Relations • Issue - Image Management • Database Development & List Management Mike Luckovich - Atlanta Journal Constitution

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up two good martinis and a double-fisted crazy one. Today, they discuss growing confidence that the GOP will defend all its Senate seats, Democrats already assigning blame if Harris loses, and voting issues popping up in multiple states.First, they discuss GOP Nebraska Sen. Deb Fischer's stronger position as two different polls show her leading an “independent” opponent who previously supported Bernie Sanders. A Fischer win would boost chances of Republican control, and Jim points to this as another likely example of Democrats possibly overestimating their chances in a traditionally red state.Next, Jim and Greg chuckle over Democrats reportedly pointing fingers in the event Kamala Harris loses next week. Anonymous operatives hint at criticism of her nontraditional nomination process and the choice of Tim Walz as VP nominee if Trump secures victory. Jim and Greg see the biggest story here being that Democrats are pessimistic enough to talk publicly about a loss that hasn't happened.Finally, they discuss recurring issues as early voting unfolds. Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson confirms some Dominion voting machines are malfunctioning, blocking straight-party voting. Meanwhile, a Washington state voter reports receiving 16 absentee ballots with various names at her address. Why aren't these issues being flagged before people start voting?

October 29, 2024 ~ Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson talks with Guy and Jamie about the incredible turnout from early in-person voting, the process of pre-processing the absentee ballots, and protecting ballot boxes from harm following the fires in Oregon and Washington.

Here are the three big things to know this hour—   Number One— More warnings about how long we will have to wait for results from the election on November 5th—this time the Michigan Secretary of State says she will not know the outcome—until sometime later—   Number Two— In Pennsylvania—President Trump put on the Apron and went to work making French Fries at Mickey Dees and says in just a few moments—he worked there longer than Kamala—trolling her for her claims about working at McDonalds—   Number Three—It is time to get Kamala off the stage—after what has been the worst week yet of her very short lived campaign—as the illusion that she could actually be elected evaporates—

Welcome back to your Daily Detroit! In this episode, we react to the aftermath of Donald Trump's controversial speech at the Detroit Economic Club. We explore the implications of his comments about Detroit and how they resonate with both local and national audiences. Veteran political journalist Steve Friess shares his insights on the political landscape and the perception of Detroit in the media. We also discuss the evolving political dynamics in Michigan, touching on the first debate between Elissa Slotkin and Mike Rogers. We examine the role of electric vehicles in political debates and how they have become a partisan issue, despite their growing popularity. In addition, there's an upcoming Ann Arbor ballot propositions that could reshape local elections by removing party affiliations and adding municipal funding of local elections. We analyze the potential impact of these changes and are kind of puzzled why Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson has taken a stance against them. Switching gears, we talk about the recent success and the importance of raising expectations for Detroit's sports teams. Steve is originally from New York, so adds a bit of that "Winning should be the expectation" flare.
