Here's the Left of Lansing "Monday Musing" for February 23, 2026.

Washtenaw County Commissioner, and current candidate for Ann Arbor mayor, Yousef Rabhi, has a warning for Michigan Democrats: Oppose the big tech data center expansion in Michigan, or else face the wrath of working class voters this November. 

Rabhi's not wrong, and it's something that's bothered Pat Johnston for a long time.
