Drew Radeker, litigation counsel for Vitamin Energy, discusses a federal antitrust lawsuit filed in Michigan targeting 5-Hour Energy. The lawsuit claims that 5-Hour Energy has gained an unfair advantage by locking up premium retail counter placement, boxing out competitors, and stifling consumer choice. At the heart of the case is whether this dominance at the checkout counter violates antitrust laws designed to protect competition and create a level playing field.

State Rep. Mark Tisdel of Rochester Hills, serving on the Michigan House, is renewing his push to ban cell phones in schools after his original House Bill 4141 failed to pass, dying on a 53–45–12 vote despite prior bipartisan support and even being spotlighted in Governor Whitmer’s State of the State address. Tisdel says he’s going back to the drawing board to rewrite the bill with stronger language, aiming for a full “bell-to-bell” ban on smartphones across K–12 schools, while still allowing emergency or "dumb phone" exceptions. He’s also offering to visit classrooms across the state to talk directly with students about the issue, framing it as a real-world lesson on the legislative process.

Ivey Gruber, President of the Michigan Talk Network, weighs in on James Comey’s latest media doings, where the former FBI Director went on Substack declaring himself a “Swiftie.” They discuss how Comey is attempting to use Taylor Swift’s cultural influence to pander to the left, framing his fandom as a way to bash Donald Trump while trying to remain appealing to younger and more progressive audiences. It’s another example of how politics and pop culture are being blended to manipulate public perception.
