Here's the Left of Lansing "Friday Short" for August 8, 2025.
A recent Morning Consult poll shows what most sane Americans already know: The Trump Regime's Oligarch Economy is getting a major thumbs-down from the American People.
Considering how tariffs are already driving-up costs while driving down job production, it's no wonder Americans are regretting putting The Regime back in power.
In Michigan, we're feeling the pain of Trump's tariffs, and economic policies (so-called). Now, is the time for some real Democratic Party leaders to step-up and fight against this fascism for the people.
