People over politics. Results over noise. As an Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal officer and an Oakland County Reserve Sheriff's Deputy, I do hard jobs for a living. I’m launching my campaign for Michigan House District 55 to get to work in Lansing. #TeamHawkins #MIDems #MILeg

Rep. Mark Tisdel, R-Rochester Hills, who seemed unbeatable in his community, lost his bid for a fourth term Tuesday, falling to Democrat @AlexHawkinsMI. Hawkins had 51.25% of the vote to Tisdel’s 48.6%.

Service members swear an oath to the Constitution and cannot follow illegal orders. Members of Congress reminded us of that. The response? ➡️ Threats ➡️ Investigations ➡️ Calls for violence This isn’t normal. It’s dangerous. @VoteVets @VetsForRL @freep @MIRSnews @BridgeMichigan

HUGE thank you to @votevets for their support! I’m an Army EOD officer and a Reserve Sheriff’s Deputy, and service taught me to lead under pressure, put people first, and finish the job. That’s why I’m running for Michigan House District 55. In turbulent times like these, veterans bring steady, team-focused, mission-first leadership and with the support of VoteVets, we'll get the job done. 🚨 Donate to help us reach every voter in HD-55: bit.ly/AH-VVEL #VoteVetsEL

How is this the world we are living in? If you want something changed, stop voting for the safe, establishment pick, and vote in someone who's done with all the shit.
Republicans just BLOCKED the release of the Epstein Files. They didn’t flinch. They didn’t hesitate. They lined up and voted to keep the truth sealed. The client list is real. The cover-up is active. And the American people are watching.

🧵 "Threading the Needle": Talking to real people about real struggles—rising debt, day-to-day survival—while still sounding the alarm on deeper threats like civil rights erosion. It’s not either/or. The challenge? Making both resonate in a world that doesn’t stop for politics. @hawkforcongress Watch full video here: youtu.be/Opv75ziRl7c Follow The Ken Harbaugh Show here: linktr.ee/thekenharbaughshow

They keep calling it the Big Beautiful Bill. Let’s not bullshit. There’s nothing beautiful about adding $2.8 trillion to our debt so billionaires can cash in while millions lose their health care and we kill clean energy jobs. This doesn’t help the middle class. It screws us. I’m a Democrat. I love my country. And I’m done watching either party sell out working people to the highest bidder!
