Here's the Left of Lansing "Monday Musing" for May 19, 2025.

Tariffs could lead to 13,000 less jobs in Michigan.

Some 750,000 Michiganders could lose their Medicaid under a rushed-through MAGA Republican budget bill.

State universities are getting grant funding slashed, leading to further job loss and uncertainty and pain for farmers.

And the state's unemployment rate keeps rising.

Is this what winning feels like in Michigan under the Trump Regime?
