Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer has voiced sharp criticism of the federal government’s escalating tariff policy, warning that the approach is a “blunt tool” harming Michigan’s economy.
Speaking amid trade tensions with China, Whitmer emphasized that tariffs without a clear goal only deepen uncertainty.
As Michigan faces economic pressure from retaliatory trade measures, the governor’s comments add to growing concern from U.S. state leaders about Washington's trade war tactics.
Her remarks come as both U.S. and global markets brace for more instability triggered by President Trump’s tariff escalations.
Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin has reignited the national debate on technology in education by calling for a nationwide ban on cellphones in every K-12 classroom. In a powerful speech, she warned that social media algorithms are hooking kids to extreme content, harming their focus, and destroying real-world problem-solving skills.
Backed by bipartisan legislation targeting phones in military children's schools, Slotkin is demanding urgent action — not just on phones, but also on regulating AI in schools before it’s too late.
Is she right to sound the alarm? Or would a full cellphone ban go too far?
This video dives into the facts, expert opinions, and what’s at stake for students across the U.S.

Terrifying scene in Michigan -- a helicopter took a tumble and in a catastrophic crash ... right next to a lakefront restaurant, and the whole thing was caught.. TMZ.com
Massive wildfires raging across Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario have forced over 17,000 evacuations and triggered states of emergency. Driven by dry air, heat, and high winds, the blazes have already scorched 1.8 million acres. Smoke is now drifting into the U.S., with air quality alerts issued in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan. Forecasts warn that smoke will spread into the Ohio Valley and Carolinas, bringing health risks from fine particles. Experts say wildfire smoke is now one of the most dangerous air pollutants for Americans.

The White House is doubling down on President Donald Trump’s controversial "$3.3 trillion Big Beautiful Bill,” calling it the largest tax cut in American history. At a press briefing, the Press Secretary emphasized the bill’s core goal: delivering relief to everyday, working-class Americans. Framing it as a win for the middle class, the administration claims the package not only reduces taxes but also rebalances the economic scales. Critics, however, warn of soaring deficits, potential slashes to Medicaid, and threats to renewable energy incentives. As GOP lawmakers remain divided on spending cuts and debt ceiling increases, this bold push represents Trump’s defining legislative gamble before July 4. With the Senate preparing for a vote-a-rama, the future of this bill could reshape America's fiscal trajectory — or spark fresh political chaos.

A Texas Republican Congressman, Brandon Gill, sparked outrage after making a racist remark against Indian-origin New York politician Zohran Mamdani for eating biryani with his hands. Gill reshared a video of Mamdani eating during an interview and wrote, “Civilized people in America don’t eat like this. Go back to the Third World.”
The video showed Mamdani discussing taboo topics in U.S. politics while calmly eating. Ironically, Gill is married to Danielle D’Souza, daughter of Indian-American commentator Dinesh D’Souza. Social media erupted, highlighting hypocrisy and sharing photos of Trump eating with his hands. Gill has a history of racist rhetoric, recently posting two contrasting pictures of Los Angeles to argue against immigration. Mamdani, born in Uganda and raised in NYC, was explaining how his worldview on Palestine is shaped by his Third World roots. The comment by Gill has triggered a larger debate on race, culture, and what defines “American values.”

President Donald Trump’s $3.3 trillion tax and spending bill has hit turbulence in the U.S. Senate. Senate Majority Leader John Thune is racing to meet Trump’s July 4 deadline, but faces internal GOP divisions. At least eight Republican senators oppose key parts of the bill, ranging from Medicaid cuts to renewable energy credit phaseouts. Some GOP factions demand deeper spending cuts, while others seek to protect healthcare and green energy.
Meanwhile, markets are watching closely as the dollar dips and renewable energy stocks slide. Senators like Thom Tillis and Rand Paul have signaled likely opposition, placing final passage in jeopardy. Trump, watching closely, has lashed out at dissenters on social media. The bill, if passed, could reshape healthcare access for millions and eliminate major green energy incentives. Final voting may happen late Monday or early Tuesday, but only if Thune can negotiate a fragile consensus.
