  • Trump in Michigan as Primaries Heat Up | Lansing News

    Trump’s Michigan rally at a GM plant packed political fire — touting his economic comeback, blasting urban centers as “dirty, filthy, and grimy,” and taking aim at UAW leader Shawn Fain while spotlighting John James for governor. Protesters were swiftly removed, but the event underscored a pivotal moment as primaries loom and trade tensions with Canada simmer. Despite his boasts, auto investments remain years away — yet Trump closed with a push for the SAVE America Act, as Michigan’s political race heats up ahead of midterms.

  • Michigan Cyclosporiasis Outbreak Explained | Lansing News

    Michigan’s cyclosporiasis outbreak just hit 9,253 confirmed cases — a jump from 8,176 — not from new infections but delayed reporting. The parasite, linked to possible iceberg lettuce (including a recall from Taylor Farms), has spread to 70 counties, with Wayne County (excluding Detroit) leading at 1,036 cases. Health officials urge caution with bagged salads, cilantro, basil, raspberries, snow peas, and green onions — and remind everyone: wash produce and wash hands. Treatable with antibiotics, this illness causes watery diarrhea, cramps, and weight loss — but prevention is key.
