  • Yeah the GOP tried that in Michigan in select cities during the Snyder administration using their "Emergency Manager" law. They tried to save money in Flint by switching to a closer water source and then proceeded to cut corners in that transition process. Obviously things went very poorly.

  • Yeah I remember Obama wanted to close it, but then the big question of where to move the prisoners to in the US had to be answered, and nobody wanted to hold them. It was politically dead at that point.

  • I appreciate the additional alternate links.

    The Yahoo link masks the original source and it's only labeled as an opinion piece in the article. The contents of the article may be fine, but some folks will only have time to read the headline and jump to the comments.

  • Kent County is in the northern part of the lower peninsula. The most well known city in the area is Grand Rapids, home of the DeVos family (Amway, Former Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos). In more recent history they have usually been right leaning, and the sheriff's office had been in the news for not the greatest reasons.

    That's what I know and colors my perception. I'm honestly surprised that Harris won that county, so maybe there is a culture shift up there.
