It takes a long time to build trust and an instant to lose it. We cannot keep kicking our allies in the teeth and cozying up to our authoritarian adversaries.
Listen to my interview from the Munich Security Conference.

The President, Stephen Miller, Secretary Noem and others are labeling people like Renee Good as domestic terrorists. ICE agents are saying that people are being added to a domestic terrorist list.
I asked ICE leadership about this.
But Spartans are resilient. And this spring, MSU will break ground on a beautiful memorial to honor those impacted by that terrible night. We will continue to honor their memory with action.
It’s been three years since the tragic shooting at Michigan State University that took the lives of Arielle, Brian, and Alexandria and injured many more. Like so many communities affected by gun violence, Spartans know that the pain never goes away — even after the cameras leave.
I am not supporting additional money for ICE until and unless they have significant reforms.
The President and his cabinet have suggested having masked ICE agents encircling polling places. It's not fantasy, and it's not made up. And we need to be clear-eyed about that.
Americans want common-sense enforcement of immigration laws. Not federal-style goons in our streets.

On the heels of the failed indictment this week, today we have yet another victory.
I’m thrilled for my friend @captmarkkelly.bsky.social, but more importantly, for the most American of values -- the freedom of speech -- and the Constitution and rule of law.
Don’t give up the ship.
This week, a group of anonymous citizens stood up for the rule of law and refused to indict me. I am going on offense and I am leaving all options on the table.
Last year, I met Nick Baumgartner at the FIS Continental Cup - Pine Mountain Ski Jumps in the U.P. From Iron Mountain to Milan, Michigan is proud of your work and looking forward to watching your competition tomorrow. Good luck!
In the words of Nick: "Dreams don't work unless you do."

Sen. Slotkin: " I appreciate Sen. Tillis saying something. He's gone further than anybody else. But it's a sad moment when anonymous grand jurors, citizens called at random in Washington, D.C., have more bravery to uphold basic rule of law than some of our Senate colleagues."
I know we will come through this moment in our country. But we're going to have to fight for it.
When the President threatens you and it results in threats to your family. That is enough to keep a lot of people quiet.
That's the point. The intimidation is the point. So others watch and say, "That's not for me."
But yesterday, a Grand Jury of anonymous citizens pushed back.
This is about doing what the President wants. This is not about real law—it's about weaponizing the justice system against people you disagree with.

Slotkin: "The president is using our justice system to weaponize it against his perceived enemies…Instead of looking to our president as an example, it is now up to individual citizens in their private capacity to uphold the values of democracy — free speech, liberty, justice."

Sen. Elissa Slotkin: " The intimidation was the point…If the president can do this to us, to sitting senators, who else can he do it to? What can he do to a business leader, a community leader, or to the mom on TikTok who goes viral because she's criticizing the president?"

Sen. Slotkin: "At the direction of President Trump, U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro attempted to persuade a grand jury to indict us on criminal charges. If things had gone a different way, we'd be preparing for arrest. Fortunately, her attempt failed."
Yesterday, Jeanine Pirro tried to indict me on criminal charges.
That failed.
Here’s my response:
This is about doing what the President wants. This is not about real law—it's about weaponizing the justice system against people you disagree with.

My father taught me two things. He taught me right from wrong, and he taught me to love this country.
Weaponizing the legal system against people for basic freedom of speech goes against everything this country stands for.
