My religion says all of the land of Michigan is holy. I'm going to kick all of the current residents out and make it mine. Got a problem with that? Wow, it's like you don't even think I have a right to self-determination, you bigot.
The new charges could result in up to 20 years of jail time for Scott and 15 years for Lambert.
Scott, who did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Wednesday, previously claimed she’d “done nothing wrong” before Adams Township voters recalled and removed her from office in May 2023.
In October 2021, Scott was stripped of her ability to conduct elections by the Department of State after refusing to turn over her voting machines, assigning her duties to the Hillsdale County Clerk. […] At the time, Scott told Bridge Michigan that she did not trust the machine and wanted to preserve any old data on it, echoing unfounded claims that tabulators may have been rigged against former President Donald Trump in 2020.
And maybe even more so sickened by those who want to define what antisemitism is and [what] it isn't," Moss said.
So not only is it antisemitic to talk about the fact that Israel is committing genocide, it's antisemitic to even mention that Israel doesn't represent all Jewish people?
I don't know about you, but to me, that sounds a lot like stereotyping. I think there's a word you're supposed to use for that, but I can't quite think of it...
No such thing as antisemitism on the left. It's antithetical to leftism. If you're antisemitic then you're not in the leftist camp. Anti Zionism is not antisemitism.
As a Michigan resident, I think part of the problem is the 10 cent deposit hasn't changed since it was enacted 50 years ago. 10 cents used to get you a lot further than today. A relative told me back in the '80s when he was struggling that he would go through public garbage bins for pop cans and return them to get himself lunch for that day. Can't exactly do that now unless you find several hundred cans and bottles and have a way to transport them.
Hell, I remember seeing a Seinfeld episode where Cramer takes a van-full of New York returnables and brings them to Michigan to double his earnings. I don't think he was successful.
If we want to keep this system and keep recycling high, I think we need to raise the deposit to 25 cents or more per bottle/can. That may encourage drinkers to start recycling again. Though I also realize that will piss off a lot of people.
And/Or include the deposit on literally every bottle and can sold in the state. Not just carbonated beverages.
They love to claim Martin Luther King as one of their own, but when Lyndon B. Johnson told him to wait until after the 1964 election to demand civil rights, MLK also told him to suck it. LBJ passed the Civil Rights Act in 1963 and lost the support of southern Democrats, but beat Goldwater in 1964.
Joe Biden knows what he has to do to get Rashida Tlaib and her supporters' vote. Tlaib isn't the one supporting Trump; it's Netanyahu.
