Game 2 is a must win for the Pistons. Cโmon JD! Bonus: MSU football game Sep 26 at home vs Nebraska should be a good time, key game. Baked: El Tri Mexico will win the futbol World Cup this summer, and people will love it. ๐ฒ๐ฝ

End of an era. Sold my Chevy Astro Van to this guy yesterday. Keep it rolling. #Michigan
Ice action now on Burt Lake MI. #miwx
Cheboygan River MI now, huge diesel pumps and at least 14 big intake straws to help move water below dam. Michigan DNR on scene. Incomplete, slow closure of the paper plant by Homs has affected flow and exacerbated the risk to people. Sunny and warm today, water seems slightly down. #miwx #floods
Republicans want to let a foreign mining company pollute the pristine Boundary Waters and kick the door open to selling out our public lands. And theyโll violate the Congressional Review Act to do it.
Iโm a HELL NO.
Flooding in Northern Michigan. 1604 today on the Maple River near Burt Lake, Emmet County MI. Water up to bottom of Brutus Rd bridge, but no visible damage to the timber bridge built in 2016.

End the war with Iran. Itโs been an #EpicFail by Madman Trump. Now the US military is blocking the Straight of Hormuz, after just threatening Iran to open it to oil tankers, because Iran closed strait reacting to BiBiโs war; strait was open in Feb. Unwise use, risk of US troops. ๐บ๐ธ ๐ฎ๐ท #energy #economy
Are you taking AIPAC money?
Voters in N. Michigan and the U.P. should consider Kyle Blomquist for Congress. Blomquistforcongress.com @blomquist4congress.bsky.social #Dems #Independent #GOP
Trumpโs latest proposal to gut the U.S. Forest Service isnโt about efficiencyโitโs about walking away from the stewardship of our nationโs forests.
Fewer firefighters during fire season, less protection for watersheds.
Doing so without Congressional approvalโthatโs why we are fighting back! ๐ฒ
Great show tonight. Thanks WJZD and listeners
