I forgot that Superman episode when he tried to take breakfast and lunch from kids!.
If Superman was from Michigan they’d tax him every time he tried to fly. Save a life? That’s a tax. Around here, it would take a Man of Steel to pry some of these lawmakers away from their tax schemes.

The bill that just passed the Senate is not just cruel, it’s stupid and a financial disaster for our state and the whole country. This bill is a betrayal of the American Dream that has been promised to generations as Republicans crush working families to benefit the ultra wealthy.

Probably the least surprising thing we've ever learned: Matt Maddock takes up two parking spaces for his BMW. For all his "America First" talk, he doesn't even drive a Michigan-built union-made American car.
Someone appears to have Saran wrapped Rep. Maddock’s car. About an hour ago, Rep. Brixie was acknowledged by the speaker pro tem to make an announcement: A car with the license plate MMADD had its hood open and engine running in the parking garage.

Guess $100m is the price to buy our private data, a giant tax cut for billionaires, and award yourself massive government contracts while you cut health care to seniors and veterans. And they'll throw in a giant ad for your car company at the White House.

Schriver is attacking hundreds of thousands of Michiganders who are beloved members of the community, and he doesn't deserve to serve the people of Michigan.

Unfortunately, this isn’t a surprise coming from Josh Schriver and the right-wing extremists that populate Matt Hall’s Republican caucus—and it’s deeply dangerous.
