Shut the fuck up criminal.
Friends and neighbors, please stay safe if you must venture out this evening. Apparently Hurricane Beryl wants to experience a Michigan summer before she quits.

You're a fucking corrupt state legislator who belongs in prison for lying to the cops about a sexual assault committed by one of your campaign donors. Stop wasting my tax dollars pretending to be a meteorologist while getting a taxpayer funded paycheck.
I know everybody’s hot, but not as hot as 4 disabled people in their late 50s and early 60s I found roasting in a rooming house in Battle Creek tonight.
I learned that there are 6 different people in this house paying 750.00 a month, utilities included, for a place to stay.
There is no air conditioning.
There are no fans.
One resident claimed that the windows didn’t open.
There’s a common kitchen, and one - maybe two - bathrooms to share.
I checked out both the first and the second floors.
I’ll see what help I can get through Calhoun County Senior Services tomorrow.
But there are people living in Battle Creek who share bathrooms with strangers, and have nothing but oppressive heat in their homes.
And they get by on $943.00 a month, plus SNAP benefits.

Kim, Since I just discovered these unfortunate people at about 6:45 tonight, I’ll first communicate with Senior Services, and next try Adult Protective Services if Senior Services is limited in what it might do. I’ll call first thing tomorrow morning.
Hi, We might be able to help at Community Action. Call Laura Jones at 965-7766. I briefed her on situation .
They need Section 8 vouchers. You can't live on SSI without one. Otherwise you end up being preyed on like those people and packed into a rooming house. I know of one other. The conditions are terrible, and they have them just warehoused so they can take their money.
If you or someone you know is struggling with the heat this week, here are some resources in Albion.Two more Cooling Centers have been added to the list: Albion Mayor's Office at City Hall at City of Albion, Michigan and the Ludington Center at Albion College. Please share!

More orange barrels are springing up, this time on Dickman (M-96) from the county line to Helmer. Plan ahead and hopefully we will all enjoy smoother travels by August.
M-96 resurfacing in Augusta and Springfield begins Sunday

Today I attended the inaugural We the People Middle School Showcase hosted by Marshall Middle School. I was inspired to see the participants already engaging with important civic issues. These students are well on their way to becoming informed, engaged citizens and future leaders.

You're a fucking disgrace. You shouldn't be around children. You lied to the police about a sexual assault committed by one of your campaign donors.
Rev. Dr. William H. Bell Jr., of St. Mark CME Church in Battle Creek, traveled to our state capitol to deliver today's invocation for the House of Representatives legislative session. It was wonderful to have his presence in the House chamber today. Thank you, Reverend Bell, for your willingness to share guiding words before the members of the 102nd Legislature.
