I fully support Prosecutor McDonald’s issuance of Involuntary Manslaughter charges against the parents of the alleged shooter. Demanding accountability of a child’s parents under the circumstances presented isn’t just appropriate, it’s essential. Justice demands no less.

God it feels good to have an America that represents all of us again. Even if you don't love every policy of this administration, for the next 4 years no one will be made to feel inferior based on the color or their skin, where they were born, how they pray or who they love. 🇺🇸

AG @dananessel also had another key point - she's the top law enforcement officer in Michigan. And even she can't keep her kids safe from gun violence all by herself. We must act *together* for #GunSafety . We must love our kids more than we love guns.

My job is not to provide state employees & residents or other visitors to our Capitol with a false sense of security, especially given the current state of affairs in Michigan and around the nation. I repeat-the Michigan Capitol is not safe.

Following reports of “trouble” at the polls in Warren. Turns out these “troublemakers” from the Biden and Trump camps are singing “God Bless America” together. Now that’s what I call Good Trouble! 🇺🇸

18 of the AGs who are members of this org fought to overturn the election results in MI and 3 other states. RAGA will likely be the #1 financial supporter of my opponent for the 2022 election. This is who they are & why electing Dem AGs is so crucial in preserving democracy.

An arm of the Republican Attorneys General Association, a national group representing the top law enforcement officers in their states, sent out robocalls encouraging people to march to the US Capitol the day before it was stormed by a pro-Trump mob.

For all the LGBTQ kids out there who were demonized and whose lives were weaponized by sad and broken adults during this election cycle: You are good enough. Your lives and stories matter. God loves you just as you are. Don’t let anyone ever tell you otherwise.

Sometimes I worry my attempts at humor on social media might be beneath the dignity of my office, but then I see a congressman in a full-blown argument about the success of Two and Half Men, and I feel like I am probably fine.

I can confirm that Patrick Colbeck has never made a complaint of election fraud to the MIchigan Dept of Attorney General. If he had, we would have fully investigated said claim.

Colbeck is insisting that the computers were connected to the internet. I don't know which computers he's referring to. One of the Democratic members finally chimes in: If you have evidence of fraud, have you submitted it to the Attorney General??

Michigan will have 3 million or more absentee ballots to count. The counting of AV Ballots cannot begin until 7am Election Day. The election ends when all the votes are counted. Not when the polls close. #CountEveryBallot

Each of the radical Republicans running for Michigan AG want to overturn the right for married couples to use contraception without being prosecuted. With that same-sex marriage, relations between unmarried ppl, even the right to non-missionary sex becomes illegal in our state.
