Ypsilanti Township residents are speaking out against a proposed data center backed by the University of Michigan, saying they were not given enough opportunity to weigh in on the project.

Nearly half of Michiganders surveyed this week said they’re struggling to pay for groceries and gas because of the high cost of health insurance, underscoring an affordability crisis that Democratic US Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed has cited as one of the reasons why the US needs Medicare for All.

Texas, however, keeps records for the monthly expenses incurred by his security detail. Those records show reimbursements for travel outside Texas spiked from about $30,000 in 2015 to nearly $400,000 in 2024.

Texas does not require the attorney general to report his day-to-day whereabouts, and other state records do not often reveal the length or purpose of the out-of-state travel.

The travel cost Texas taxpayers a minimum of $1.9 million to cover expenses charged by his security detail, records show. It is unclear how Paxton has financed much of his portion of the travel.

Since assuming office in 2015, Paxton left about 730 workdays blank on his official calendars and took over 275 out-of-state trips to places such as the California wine country, Caribbean resorts and European tourism hot spots.

In a letter, he wrote: "To the ICE agent who took away my mother: I hope it was worth it." This is what cruelty as policy costs a family. If you or someone you love is struggling, call or text 988.

Samuel Gonzalez Terrones was 21. His mom was the one who calmed him down on his worst days. In June, ICE agents arrested her as she stepped off a bus on her way to the grocery store. Two months later, Samuel died by suicide.

Trump is complaining about “rigged” elections in the country he runs, after raiding election offices, purging voter rolls, gerrymandering red states, and sending ICE to the polls. It’s still not working. Talarico is up 6 on Paxton, and data centers are sinking him further.

Republicans in Michigan say they will vote for El-Sayed or won't vote at all in the U.S. Senate race. "If I don't vote for him, I'm not voting."

@turnleftpac.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 1:31 PM

76% of respondents self-identifying as Democrats at least “somewhat” oppose data center development in their communities, while 58% of self-described Republican respondents oppose the projects.

@turnleftpac.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 1:31 PM

The poll found that opposition to data centers is bipartisan but is stronger among Democrats and independents than Republicans;

@turnleftpac.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 1:31 PM

"One of the interesting things about this data is that we actually found Michigan residents are more opposed to data centers than folks are across the U.S.," said study co-author and SU professor Doug Bessette. "So, 70% of Michigan respondents were opposed compared to 65% across the U.S."

Twenty-four hours. Three states. Three people dead. Countless lives changed in seconds. The men in Maine and Florida were not even ICE’s intended targets for arrest – they became “collaterals”, as agency officials call them.

@turnleftpac.bsky.socialOct 4, 2026, 8:30 PM

There were no ties between Durán Guerrero, Arenas-Silva and Coronilla Durán, but within those 24 hours, the three men suddenly became connected as casualties in the latest phase of Donald Trump’s aggressive anti-immigration campaign.
