Our firefighters are on the frontlines, not just in their communities but on so many of the issues that are ripped right from the headlines. Health care, mental health, and the state of our economy. Was glad to tour the fire house this week in Inkster with the @MPFFU.

Senator Elissa Slotkin is standing her ground, asserting that the President's response is an intimidation tactic simply because he disagrees with what was said in the video.

Last night, the FBI's Counterterrorism Division appeared to open an inquiry into me in response to a video President Trump did not like. The President directing the FBI to target us is exactly why we made this video in the first place. He believes in weaponizing the federal

Donald Trump can try to intimidate me, but it’s not going to work. My job is to defend the Constitution and hold any president accountable.

Donald Trump is threatening me with arrest and execution because I’m upholding my oath to the Constitution and standing with our troops. It tells you all you need to know about this President’s disregard for the rule of law.
