Whitmer's Mileage Tax Hits the People Who Drive the Most: Michigan Just Spent $7.65M Tax Dollars Testing it Out:
Michigan is spending up to $7.65 million on a pilot program to test a mileage-based alternative to its gas tax.
The pilot will launch in February 2027, run for six months, and enroll 1,000 volunteers, Jennifer Roberts, the road usage charge (RUC) lead at consultant CDM Smith, told FOX 2 Detroit. Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer proposed the program, and lawmakers approved the spending cap in the 2025 budget, according to the public act.
Whitmer leaves office Jan. 1, a month before the pilot is set to begin.

We Forgot 9/11: Then We Swore a Mayor In on the Qur'an - Part One:
You would think Americans would wake up on the 9/11 anniversary, especially in the city where these terrorists attacked our country. Instead, we are welcoming in new political leaders, like Zohran Mamdani, who was sworn in on a Qur’an!
Not a Bible, a Qur’an — the same book that fuels the dangerous doctrines of jihad, the doctrine by which the Al-Qaeda terrorists were inspired.
Why are we doing this? We are doing this in the name of cultural relativism?

Homicide is defined as “death at the hands of another.”
- It is a fact that terrorists pushed these people to their deaths, murdering them...
The voice behind those steady, heartbreaking words belonged to Brian David Sweeney, a 38-year-old former U.S. Navy pilot, defense contractor, and devoted husband from Spencer, Massachusetts.

U.S. Supreme Court to rule on home Bible studies, as local officials weaponize against gatherings * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh:
The ACLJ said the issue is just about the same as the arguments in its previous battles, over a plan in Fairfax County, Virginia, and another in Georgia, and another in Manhattan Beach, California.

The ACLJ said it has filed a supplemental brief in the case Grand v. City of University Heights to make sure the court has the facts.
