For those watching the World Cup the past couple weeks, many of the stadiums are quite familiar (sans sponsor names, of course). 11 of the 16 venues are in the United States, with all of the American venues currently home to NFL franchises: Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City, Los Angeles x2, Miami, New England, New York x2, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Seattle.

Michigan Democrats seek to mend old divides at contentious convention
Detroit — Michigan Democrats rallied their largest group of delegates in the party’s history at a state convention Sunday, even as they attempted to mend divisions that emerged during the Israel-Gaza war.
Delegates to the Michigan Democratic Party’s endorsement on Sunday elected a slate of largely progressive candidates, picking Lt. Gov. Garlin Gilchrist II as their nominee for secretary of state, Washtenaw County Prosecutor Eli Savit as the nominee for attorney general and unseating University of Michigan incumbent Regent Jordan Acker in favor of Dearborn attorney Amir Makled.
Gilchrist will face off in November against the Republican nominee, Macomb County Clerk Anthony Forlini, while Savit will compete against the GOP nominee for attorney general, Eaton County Prosecutor Doug Lloyd, as well as a handful of third-party candidates.
About 7,252 delegates participated in Sunday’s convention at Huntington Place in Detroit, a record for the party, Michigan Democratic Party Chairman Curtis Hertel said.
The state Democratic Party declined Sunday to disclose the vote totals for its nominees at the convention, which is held every four years for party activists to pick nominees for every statewide office except governor and U.S. Senate in lieu of a primary election.
The chosen nominees come as the state approaches massive midterm elections, in which every statewide seat is up for grabs in the November election, as well as the 148 seats in the state House and Senate, where Democrats hope to capture a majority.
In caucus rooms at Huntington Place, Democratic leaders urged unity behind messages of affordable health care, accessible housing, opposition to President Donald Trump’s executive actions and a commitment to sweeping statewide seats in November. There was also recognition, in some meeting rooms on Sunday, of the issues that divided the party in 2024 amid protests of the Biden administration’s support of Israel in the Israel-Gaza war, and the need to fully mend those divisions in advance of the Nov. 3 election.
During the convention program on Sunday, the Israel-Gaza conflict appeared to remain a sensitive issue among some convention-goers. Protesters shouted repeatedly for a point of order, with one holding a sign that said: “Put the Palestine human rights resolution back on the agenda.” And the loudest booing, by far, occurred when U.S. Rep. Haley Stevens and Acker, both pro-Israel candidates, were announced on stage in their respective U.S. Senate and Board of Regents races.
Malinda Salameh was among those booing at Huntington Place, in part to protest candidates’ support from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). The 31-year-old UM alumnus registered too late to be a delegate on Sunday, but attended as a guest and intends to vote in the U.S. Senate primary. Stevens has long been aligned with AIPAC, while her two Democratic primary rivals, physician Abdul El-Sayed and state Sen. Mallory McMorrow, have sworn off AIPAC’s campaign cash.
“Unfortunately, they need to understand that we as people cannot stand for this anymore,” Salameh said. “We don’t want any foreign interests messing with our politics. We want money out of politics. And I think that people are sad because they’re not being heard.”
During Acker’s nomination speech, as crowds booed, Wayne County Commissioner Jonathan Kinloch warned that delegates were not learning from the party’s 2024 electoral losses.
“There’s one thing that November 2024 should have taught us, is that the enemy is not in this room,” Kinloch said.
In caucuses, Democrats reckon with a divide
Abbas Alawieh, a cofounder of the Uncommitted National Movement, active in the 2024 election, told delegates, while campaigning for a state Senate seat Sunday morning, that he remained determined to ensure Arab American and Downriver communities are represented within the party.
He told The Detroit News Sunday that the party had done a good job over the past two years in making more room for all members. The record attendance, he said, is proof the Michigan Democratic Party is “trying to be the big tent party and we’ve got to continue growing that.”
“It’s clear that anti-war voters of all stripes, including Arab Americans in Michigan, are going to be critical to our path forward as Democrats,” Alawieh said. “As Democrats, we have to be proactive about reaching out to disaffected voters and voters that we’ve lost to the Republican party.”
U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Detroit, pushed delegates to ask candidates seeking their vote real questions about actions to combat neighborhood pollution or their stances on federal actions in the Middle East. Pushing for those discussions among candidates will ultimately help improve the party, she said.
“We’re not anti-Democratic Party,” Tlaib said. “We’re trying to make the Democratic Party better.”
El-Sayed, a Muslim Democrat running for U.S. Senate, told members of the party’s Jewish Caucus that he would focus on issues affecting all communities, including allying against “anti-religious bigotry.”
“A lot of folks want us to pay attention to things that we might disagree on happening 6,000 miles away rather than reminding us about the things we agree on happening right here in our state,” El-Sayed said.
Regent candidates debate ‘elephant in the room’
Earlier in the day, the state party’s Jewish Caucus also heard from candidates who expressed a commitment to maintaining a place within the party for Jewish candidates and voters.
Acker, a Jewish Democrat fighting to retain his seat on the University of Michigan Board of Regents, and his fellow incumbent Paul Brown argued Acker had been targeted in his role as regent and in the nomination race. Brown called it the “elephant in the room”
Acker and Brown were running to retain their seats against Makled, a Dearborn attorney who represented several students who faced charges after protests calling on UM to divest from weapons manufacturing and Israel.
Brown argued that Acker had borne the brunt of attacks during the campus unrest and the nomination campaign.
“There’s one difference between Jordan and I,” Brown told members of the Jewish Caucus, “and that is, Jordan is Jewish, and I am not.”
Acker, a personal injury lawyer, said he wouldn’t be cowed by efforts to oust him from the board and credited Jewish Democrats with being significant leaders in civil rights fights over the decades.
“We have a message that we can send today, that we will not be pushed out of this coalition,” Acker said.
Makled, for his part, encouraged members of the Arab American Caucus also to hold their ground within the party.
“We want to make sure this electorate, this convention is giving an image of unity to the Democratic Party, that we’re collectively trying to push the better foot forward, but we’re also not afraid to stand up and speak for our issues as Arab Americans,” Makled said.
The contest between Makled and Acker was particularly heated.
Makled was criticized for reposting, and later deleting, praise for Hezbollah and antisemitic remarks on his social media account, deleted posts.
And The Guardian on Friday reported that Acker appeared to have made obscene sexual comments about a Democratic party strategist and lewd comments about a female U-M student in Slack messages.
When asked Simday about the messages by The News, Acker said the allegations were “ridiculous” and “fake.”
Acker’s attorney, Ethan Holtz, later sent a statement to The News alleging Acker “has never been on Slack” and that the messages contained elements that appeared to be “doctored.”

Michigan bills establishing American Freedmen infrastructure introduced in House
Michigan Democratic House members have introduced three bills that would create a commission to study reparations, establish a state office and track data for descendants of enslaved Americans.
The proposed legislation, identified as the Reparative Justice Package by the Michigan House Democrats and the Michigan Legislative Black Caucus, was presented to the chamber on Thursday. State Rep. Donavan McKinney, who is sponsoring all three bills, says they “take important steps toward understanding Black history and building a stronger future for Michigan.”
House Bill 6111 would create the American Freedmen reparations commission, a group of four state lawmakers and five governor-appointed experts that would “study and develop reparations proposals that provide reparations to American Freedmen,” according to the legislation’s text.
The commission would need to submit a report of its findings and recommendations to the Legislature within 18 months of its first meeting.
The second piece of legislation, House Bill 6112, would establish the office of Freedman affairs, which, according to the proposal, would “advocate, coordinate, research, and make policy recommendations on matters affecting American Freedmen” living in Michigan.
The governor would appoint a director who would serve as head of the office for five years.
Under House Bill 6113, state agencies collecting demographic information from an individual would be required to include the following subcategories for Black, African or Caribbean categories:
- A descendant of an individual who was enslaved in United States, American Freedmen.
- Not a descendant of an individual who was enslaved in United States, American Freedmen.
- Descendant status is unknown or individual chooses not to identify.
“Michigan has always been at its best when we are willing to confront challenges with honesty, listen to one another, and build institutions that serve the people,” Democratic state Rep. Helena Scott, who is also sponsoring all three bills, said in a written statement. “This package continues that tradition by creating transparent processes, encouraging public participation, and strengthening the relationship between government and the communities it serves.”
State Rep. John Roth is the only Republican sponsor of the bill to create the reparations commission.
CBS News Detroit has reached out to the Michigan Republican Party for comment on the bills, but has yet to hear back.

Remembering soccer matches at Michigan Stadium
As a fun fact, Michigan has played games in a few of these stadiums, including the Peach Bowl loss to Florida in Atlanta, a couple season openers in Dallas, multiple Orange Bowls in Miami, and — of course — the 2024 College Football Playoff National Championship Game in Houston.
How about the reverse? The Big House is not amongst the 11 U.S. World Cup locations, but it has hosted four different soccer matches over the past 12 years. All of these were preseason friendlies, with most involving some of the biggest brands in the entire sport. In honor of the current soccer craze, we briefly revisit these four fixtures.
2014: Manchester United 3-1 Real Madrid
Unsurprisingly when these two clubs share a pitch, but the inaugural soccer match at Michigan Stadium set the record for attendance in U.S. soccer history with a crowd over 109,000. An Ashley Young brace helped the English side win the contest, with Gareth Bale the lone goal scorer for Madrid; Cristiano Ronaldo was recovering from an injury, but he did make a cameo.
Hosting the biggest Premier League brand and the reigning Champions League winners was exactly the splash Michigan wanted to make. This is probably the greatest of the four friendlies in terms of prestige, with world-class talent filling both XIs.
2016: Real Madrid 3-2 Chelsea
Madrid returned to Ann Arbor a couple years later, again coming off a Champions League title — and on its way to win its second of three straight. Marcelo was the one with the brace this time, with Eden Hazard scoring twice late for the Blues, who came up just short of the win.
Chelsea was reeling from a horrendous domestic campaign that saw the 2014-15 champions fall all the way down to 10th place the following season. It was an immediate bounce back, however, as the London side would reclaim the crown in 2016-17, perhaps inspired by the friendly defeat to Madrid??
2018: Liverpool 4-1 Manchester United
It was an all-English affair in 2018, with the Premier League runner-up, Manchester United, taking on the Champions League runner-up, Liverpool. These historic rivals were both heading into the season with strong expectations, but it was the Reds who ended up meeting the task, falling a point short of Manchester City domestically, but winning the Champions League.
In terms of the match on campus, it was all Liverpool as well. A pair of penalties was enough for Liverpool, as four different players got on the scoresheet such as Sadio Mane and Daniel Sturridge. It was also a third-straight crowd of over 100,000 in the Big House.
2019: Barcelona 4-0 Napoli
The fourth and final European contest at Michigan Stadium was the second leg of something called the 2019 La Liga-Serie A Cup. Barcelona was the reigning La Liga champion and cruised to a 4-0 victory thanks to goals from superstars Luis Suarez (x2), Antoine Griezmann, and Ousmane Dembele.
Napoli is certainly the “smallest” brand to play at the Big House, but are far from obscure. The Italian side has won Serie A twice since its contest in Ann Arbor, and ended up winning the Coppa Italia in the season following this friendly.

Insider: Shaky polls cause uproar in Michigan Senate, governor races
Detroit Mayor Mary Sheffield makes an endorsement for governor
Sheffield endorsed longtime colleague Jocelyn Benson at an event in Detroit.
Lansing — Two surveys from a longtime Michigan pollster set off a battle last week among campaigns for governor and U.S. Senate, with some factions claiming the results should be deemed misleading and untrustworthy.
The dispute centered on polls conducted by Mitchell Research & Communications, which attempted to examine voters’ feelings about the GOP primary race for governor and the Democratic primary race for the U.S. Senate.
However, some prominent political figures noted that Mitchell Research contacted participants through text messages that directed them to an online SurveyMonkey poll and the links could have been shared broadly with a particular candidate’s supporters.
In an interview, Steve Mitchell of Mitchell Research acknowledged the links were shareable but said some of the allegations against his polling methods were “bulls—.” He also defended his record as a pollster.
“Who was ranked 13th most accurate in U.S. in 2024 by ActiVote, a third party firm Higher than WAPO, ABC, CNN, NY Times, SurveyUSA?” Mitchell asked, referring to himself, on X amid a barrage of criticism Wednesday night.
In response, political consultant Adrian Hemond wrote, “Address the methodology flaw in your polls bro. You sent out shareable links. Casting bones or divination would be more legitimate.”
Mitchell released the gubernatorial poll on Monday. It showed U.S. Rep. John James of Shelby Township, former Attorney General Mike Cox of Livonia and businessman Perry Johnson of Bloomfield Hills in a close race.
Johnson’s adviser, John Yob, slammed the Mitchell poll as an “easily corrupted trash methodology.”
Despite the methodology questions, the results were covered by a number of news outlets in Michigan. Yob called on them to issue retractions.
The Capitol newsletter Michigan Information & Research Service (MIRS) News, which works with Mitchell on polling, reported that in the survey, the fourth GOP candidate, state Senate Minority Leader Aric Nesbitt of Van Buren County, was getting 0% in west Michigan, close to his home territory that he represented for 14 years in the Legislature.
MIRS News covered the governor poll but declined to report on the U.S. Senate poll the following day, despite the fact that Mitchell initially said MIRS News had “sponsored” the polls.
In the interview, Mitchell told The Detroit News that he actually paid for the polls and simply provided them to MIRS News.
“I am curious,” Mitchell said. “I run a polling company. So I paid for the poll.”
His Senate poll showed Abdul El-Sayed of Ann Arbor with a lead over U.S. Rep. Haley Stevens of Birmingham and state Sen. Mallory McMorrow of Royal Oak in a distant third place at 6%. Most polls have had McMorrow much closer to Stevens and El-Sayed.
Kyle Melinn, the editor of MIRS News, acknowledged to Politico that he decided not to publish the poll, in part, because of pressure from McMorrow’s campaign.
“I told Steve (Mitchell) that the (McMorrow) campaign did raise issues with the poll, and that they were pressuring me to not run the poll,” Melinn told Politico.
Despite the basement-level showing for McMorrow, one of Stevens’ advisers even questioned the poll results.
“This methodology does seem pretty bad!” Stevens adviser Caitlin Legacki wrote on X.
Mitchell’s memo on the Senate primary credited left-wing commentator Hasan Piker as “probably a primary reason for El-Sayed’s movement upward.” A May Mitchell poll had El-Sayed at 28%, while the June poll had him at 42%.
However, Piker visited Michigan in April, before both polls.
The new poll also found El-Sayed getting 67% of the support in Detroit, much higher than people would expect. When he ran for governor in 2018 in another three-way primary race, he got 26% of the vote in Detroit.
House blocks Pride Month resolution; Hall says it’s ‘divisive’
House Democrats read a resolution Wednesday recognizing June 2026 as Pride Month from the front steps of the state Capitol after Republican House Speaker Matt Hall, for the second year running, would not hold a vote on the resolution.
“We would be thrilled if they would like to pass this resolution before the end of June,” said state Rep. Jason Morgan, D-Ann Arbor, a member of the LGBTQ+ Caucus. “That is still also an option we would welcome. But, so far, we’ve been met with silence as to whether this will be taken up or not.”
Hall told reporters Wednesday that he wasn’t taking the resolution up because he didn’t want to vote on divisive topics. He argued he also was not taking up a competing resolution for state Rep. Josh Shriver, R-Oxford, that recognized June as Nuclear Family Month.
“There’s divisive resolutions on the left and divisive resolutions on the right,” Hall said. “We’re not doing any of them. … What I’m trying to focus on is health care affordability, property tax cuts and getting the budget done.”
7th District Dems get ‘heavy’ Israel-Gaza question
Two of the three Democratic candidates seeking the 7th Congressional District seat did not directly answer a question Monday at a Latino community forum on whether Israel’s actions in Gaza amounted to genocide.
Former Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink of Lansing said she looks at the situation in terms of what is in the U.S.’s best interest, which is peace and security in the Middle East. To attain that, she said, a secure and democratic Israel must live side by side with a democratic Palestinian state free from terrorist influence.
“We should be very clear with our friends, we should be very clear with our partners in the region, that this is our goal and we’re going to work to ensure that we do that, for the stability of the region, for the people of Israel, for the Palestinian people, but also for the people of the United States,” Brink said.
Brink’s campaign did not respond this week when asked for a more direct answer to the question.
Former U.S. Navy SEAL Matt Maasdam of Ann Arbor Township noted it was a “heavy question” and argued the U.S. makes “tremendous” effort to avoid humanitarian crises or the loss of civilian life.
“When we work with another country, I expect our partners to do the same and hold themselves to the same standards that we hold ourselves,” Maasdam said, before describing the state of Israel as a partner that has a right to exist and right to defend itself.
Later in the week, Maasdam clarified in a statement that he did not believe Benjamin Netanyahu’s government had met those standards, but also did not think genocide was the right word “to describe the grave humanitarian disaster in Gaza.” Too much of politics had come become an “endless debate over labels instead of a serious effort to solve problems,” he said. He indicated he supported a two-state solution.
Community activist Will Lawrence of Lansing observed during the forum Monday that his competitors had failed to directly answer the question on whether Israel’s actions constituted genocide; the answer, he said, is “obviously yes.”
“When you have a state that has refused every other form of accountability and we continue to arm them, I don’t know how we can call ourselves a just nation if we continue to participate in this atrocity,” Lawrence said. He added he supports a lasting peace for all Palestinians and Israelis.
Heated moment at MI-10 GOP debate
Four candidates vying for a suburban Detroit U.S. House seat took the stage Tuesday at the Shelby Banquet Center for a Republican primary debate.
The event featured attorney Robert Lulgjuraj of Sterling Heights, Army veteran Michael Bouchard of Rochester Hills, attorney Justin Kirk of Clinton Township and Army veteran Steffan Demetropoulos of Macomb. They are running to replace outgoing Republican U.S. Rep. John James in Michigan’s only competitive GOP primary contest this year.
One of the more heated moments of the night came in a back-and-forth between Lulgjuraj and Bouchard, the contest’s two leading fundraisers.
Lulgjuraj called out Bouchard for his family’s political connections and cast himself — as he often does on the campaign trail — as the more “grassroots” option.
“If you want the son of a career 40-year politician who never endorsed Trump but endorsed Mitt Romney and Jeb Bush, your candidate’s there — or whose sister works at CNN, then this is your candidate,” Lulgjuraj said of Bouchard, referencing his father, longtime Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard, and his sister, Mikayla Bouchard, who works for CNN as a senior director of editorial product strategy.
“But if you want to elect me, I knocked doors in this county for President Trump. I’m from this county,” Lulgjuraj added. “I’m gonna be a MAGA, grassroots warrior when I go to Congress. And I’m never gonna let you down.”
Bouchard took issue with those comments and fired back with allegations that Lulgjuraj lied about his residence on official campaign filings and committed tax fraud by accepting a property tax discount on a home he wasn’t living in.
“He attacked my sister. I’m gonna defend my family. If someone’s gonna go after my family, I’m gonna defend them. If someone goes after this country, I’m gonna defend you. He keeps getting up here and lying,” Bouchard said.
“He lied about where he lives. He committed tax fraud — there’s allegations he committed tax fraud. He admitted to it in The Detroit News,” the candidate added, referencing an interview Lulgjuraj gave regarding his residency and tax status. A challenge by Lulgjuraj’s opponents to get him off the ballot was ultimately unsuccessful.
The crowd booed Bouchard’s comments.
Cook bumps Huizenga seat in Dems’ favor
The nonpartisan Cook Political Report on Thursday shifted its rating for Michigan’s 4th District from “likely” to “lean” Republican in a nod to the poor environment that Republicans are facing in the fall midterm elections.
The seat is held by long-time U.S. Rep. Bill Huizenga, who ran ahead of President Donald Trump by more than 6 percentage points in 2024 when he won election to an eighth term.
Cook notes that Huizenga’s west Michigan district along the lakeshore has been inching to the left, with Ottawa County representing one of the few Michigan counties where Kamala Harris improved on Joe Biden’s margin.
The likely Democratic nominee, state Sen. Sean McCann of Kalamazoo, outraised Huizenga in the first quarter, and “… Republicans admit that they’re preparing for a close race.”
“But Huizenga, a senior member on the Financial Services Committee, should be able to turn on the fundraising spigot,” Cook’s Erin Covey wrote in her analysis. “He’s also a close ally of the cryptocurrency industry, which could have an incentive to spend for him this fall.”
McCann is on the ballot in the Democratic primary with Diop Harris, a Battle Creek native and former Capitol Hill staffer for former Sen. Sherrod Brown of Ohio.
Covey said McCann’s major vulnerability could be his voting record in the Democratic-controlled state Senate, and Republicans have dubbed him ‘tax man McCann’ for voting for a new gas tax system and against property tax relief.
Democrats are expected to hit Huizenga for his votes on health care, including against extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits and cutting Medicaid in the One Big Beautiful Bill, Covey added.
Slotkin bill would keep troops from polls
U.S. Sen. Elissa Slotkin, D-Holly, introduced legislation Thursday that aims to keep the U.S. military or federal law enforcement from intervening in elections, she said.
The legislation requires a president to come to Congress to get approval before deploying uniformed military to the polls, cuts off funding for the military or federal law enforcement to seize ballots or voting machines and, thirdly, protects members of the military from “illegal orders” to do so, Slotkin said.
“We’re here doing this as swing states because we think the most important thing we need to do as senators is protect our polls, protect our democracy in this election year,” Slotkin said at a news conference at the Capitol.
Her co-sponsors on the bill are “purple” state senators, including Sens. Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin, Ruben Gallego and Mark Kelly of Arizona, Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, Jacky Rosen of Nevada and Raphael Warnock of Georgia.
Slotkin pointed to remarks by President Donald Trump, who in the last six months has claimed over 100 times that the 2020 elections were rigged, mused to a journalist that he wished he had sent the military to collect ballots in 2020, and regretted that he didn’t sign a draft executive order in 2020 sending the National Guard to seize ballots and voting machines.
“I, personally, have asked five different cabinet officials whether they would rule this out, whether it was OK to deploy the uniformed military or federal law enforcement to our polls, from Secretary Hegseth to Secretary Mullin,” Slotkin said. “None of them would unilaterally rule it out.”
Pro-Rogers group goes on air
A group called the Great Lakes Conservative Fund has launched a $1 million, comic-book-themed ad campaign in support of Republican U.S. Senate candidate Mike Rogers of White Lake Township.
“Mike Rogers is a military veteran and Michigan auto-factory worker,” said Andy Surabian, president of the fund. “He understands what Michigan families are dealing with after decades of Democrats gutting manufacturing jobs and killing the economy with their left-wing policy agenda.”
Tlaib bill seeks ICE detainee locator
U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Detroit, last week dropped legislation that would require the Department of Homeland Security to maintain an accurate online detainee locator system for those individuals detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or Customs and Border Protection.
The bill directs the creation of a system that shows “timely” information on arrests, detention locations, and transfers that are not available in the current ICE locator system, which is often not up to date.
Tlaib noted that lawyers and families are often unable to find their clients in the system, leaving them unclear if the individual is even still in the country.
“ICE and CBP are abducting our neighbors in the middle of the night, locking them in cages, and concealing their location from their families and legal counsel,” Tlaib said in a statement.
“We must equip our communities with every tool we can to help free our immigrant neighbors from this cruel and immoral system of detention.”
A summary of the bill said it also creates compliance mechanisms and penalties for non-compliant facilities and contractors, and requires ICE and CBP to inform family members and legal counsel when a detained individual is transferred for urgent medical care.
Tweet of the Week
The Insider report’s “Tweet of the Week,” recognizing a social media post that was worthy of attention or, possibly from the previous week goes to Republican political consultant John Yob.
Yob dove into the debate over polling done by Mitchell Research on Thursday, calling for widespread retractions by the media.
