My next story in a series about wrongfully convicted people in Detroit. While Mike Duggan was prosecutor, his office illegally destroyed thousands of files, making it impossible for some prisoners to prove their innocence. metrotimes.com/news/illegal-d…

Housing activists defending a terminally ill Black woman from eviction in Detroit are trying their best to keep aggressive bailiffs from entering the home today.

I’m the reporter who interviewed Rashida Tlaib. She never said Nessel did this because she’s Jewish. Never. You’re spreading lies.

Fact-check: Tlaib did not say Nessel charged pro-Palestinian protesters because she’s Jewish
The “blatant and hateful” false claims were peddled by a state lawmaker, the attorney general, and some media outlets

It was a blue wave in Michigan as Democrats seized control of the state House, state Senate, and the positions of governor, secretary of state, and attorney general. Voters also overwhelmingly approved Proposal 2 and Proposal 3.

Now Dana Bash from CNN is lying about what happened. U.S. Rep. @RashidaTlaib did not say Nessel filed the charges because she's Jewish. She said there is an anti-Palestinian attitude among many institutions, and most of them are not run by Jewish people.

A sad reality - antisemitism is everywhere and it comes from both ends of the political spectrum. We saw two examples of politicians sidestepping instead of calling it out on @CNNSOTU yesterday. @DavidChalian discusses the unwillingness by some to put morality ahead of politics.

This is a lie. You're referring to a story I wrote for @metrotimes, and U.S. Rep. Tlaib never said what you're saying she said. Never. Here's a fact check: metrotimes.com.

CNN finally runs a “clarification” to explain that U.S. Rep. @RashidaTlaib did not say Dana Nessel sought charges against protesters because she’s Jewish. It did take about 24 hours, though.

Bailiffs tried to physically remove the home defenders until Detroit police told the bailiffs they were being too aggressive.

The false claims from state Sen. @JeremyAllenMoss, Attorney General @dananessel, @CNN, @jewishinsider, and the ADL's @JGreenblattADL were based on an interview I did with U.S. Rep. @RashidaTlaib. I know what was said during the interview, and it was not what was characterized.
