Citizens called it a one-way conversation and a controlled show, while some even labeled officials a “cabal.” Though city leaders insist they’re just following procedure with no formal proposal yet, months of tension have fueled recall efforts and statewide organizing — this fight is far from over.

A deadly virus called EHD is sweeping through Michigan’s white-tailed deer, with outbreaks already confirmed in four counties. Caused by biting midges that thrive in warm, muddy conditions from late summer droughts, the disease causes rapid illness—fever, swelling, internal bleeding—and often death within days. While it poses no risk to humans or pets, hunters are warned not to consume any deer showing signs of sickness. The outbreak is expected to fade with the first hard frost, which kills the insect vectors.

Detroit’s Red Wings just made a bold move: Shawn Horcoff, their longtime assistant GM and AHL team director, is now interim GM — stepping in right before the season starts. With Steve Yzerman now a senior advisor, Horcoff takes charge of roster moves, cap management, and hockey ops, reporting directly to owner Chris Ilitch. A veteran of the organization with deep ties to player development and personnel, Horcoff brings fresh leadership as the team seeks a Stanley Cup.
