Here's the Left of Lansing "Monday Musing" for April 20, 2026.

Progressives scored some major victories at the Michigan Democratic Party's nominating convention over the weekend, including the upset of the weekend where progressive Washtenaw County Prosecutor Eli Savit defeated the establishment's choice of Oakland County Prosecutor Karen McDonald to be the party's Attorney General nominee. 

Progressives also ousted a sitting member on the University of Michigan's Board of Regents, who attacked pro-Palestinian protesters on UofM's campus, and who also allegedly made sexually explicit texts regarding a Democratic Party official, and a UofM student. 

Some pro-Israel types are proclaiming the convention's results show how there's no room for Jewish Democrats, anymore. Yet, Eli Savit, who Democratic Party delegates selected to be the party's nominee for AG, is Jewish. 

Pat Johnston explains what's really irking some establishment party leaders after these progressive victories.
