Please explain how dissolving my marriage, or that of the hundreds of thousands of other same-sex couples living in America, provides a benefit to your constituents or anyone else. You’re not interested in helping Michiganders. You want only to hurt those you hate. Shame on you.

All 3 Republicans running for Michigan Attorney General just stated that they oppose the ruling in Griswold v Connecticut which outlawed prosecuting married couples for using contraception. You read that right. Terrifying.

Getting reports of multiple robocalls going to Flint residents that, due to long lines, they should vote tomorrow. Obviously this is FALSE and an effort to suppress the vote. No long lines and today is the last day to vote. Don’t believe the lies! Have your voice heard! RT PLS.

Hey folks. Attorney General Nessel here-top law enforcement official in Michigan, for those keeping track. Don’t try this at home. I will prosecute you. Also, this might be a good time to remind people not to drink bleach.

In the hospital w/ my wife who is recovering from emergency surgery and giving thanks to the amazing medical staff who treated her & 5 SCT justices who allowed me to stay by her bedside instead of fighting with hospital staff over whether I should be considered “family” or not.

Hi! 👋After struggling with our Gov & SOS, impressed you know my name. Seems like you have a problem with all 3 women who run MI-as well as your ability to tell the truth. The auto industry has been thriving for years bc of our incredible auto workers & companies. #UnionStrong

Do nothing A.G. of the Great State of Michigan, Dana Nessel, should not be taking her anger and stupidity out on Ford Motor - they might get upset with you and leave the state, like so many other companies have - until I came along and brought business back to Michigan. JOBS!

In honor of Valentines Day, here is an awkward picture of me making out with my super hot wife on election night. ⁦@PeteButtigieg⁩ is not going back in the closet, and neither am I. Happy VD to you too, Rush Limbaugh. #Loveislove images.app.goo.gl/ki1nHsG3gjSqpc…

“You know who voted for you in Michigan, General Paxton? No one. Literally no one. So, stay in your lane, and stick to trying to disenfranchise voters in your own state. Don’t come to mine,” says Michigan AG @dananessel discussing pro-Trump election lawsuit.

Today I’m leading a coalition of six other states to fight Secretary DeVos in court and give a voice to our public schools. Michigan kids simply cannot afford for Betsy DeVos to play politics with their education.

Michigan may have a President who doesn't care about our state residents, but you have a Governor, Attorney General and Secretary of State who do. Elections have consequences. I'm looking at you, November 2020. @GovWhitmer @JocelynBenson

1) In nearly every state of the union, including Michigan, the Secretary of State is “like in charge of the ballot stuff.” 2) I AM law enforcement. And you can bet our election will be safe and the vote will be protected.

A patriot is a person who vigorously defends their country against its enemies and detractors. History will reveal which you were. I wish you loved your country half as much as you love yourself. Also, time to stop obsessing about those women from Michigan. You’re not our type.

Dear members of the public: Please stop making harassing & threatening calls to my staff. They are kind, hardworking public servants just doing their job. Asking them to shove sharpies in uncomfortable places is never appropriate & is a sad commentary on the state of our nation.

“To Kill a Mockingbird” was the single most influential book I’ve read. After an assignment in middle school, I vowed to become a lawyer and spend my life ensuring equal justice under the law for all. Removing it from the curriculum is a true American tragedy. What a dark time.
