Two interesting bites from Chris Swanson: 1. "There is no frontrunner." 2. "Let Michigan run its own elections." He's the only Democrat at this gov forum in East Lansing.

Michigan’s public schools are falling behind. Our students, educators and staff deserve better. I’ve created a '7 Point Education Plan' to get our schools back on track. Learn more on our #SwansonForMichigan website. Link in bio. #EducationMatters

A house divided, cannot stand.

Tragic and predictable. We are better than this.

@FoxNews That's what real culture change looks like. IGNITE made it possible and it's now a model across the country. @swanson4mi #SwansonForMichigan

FAITH BEHIND BARS: Surveillance video from inside a Michigan jail shows a powerful, unexpected moment on Christmas Eve. Without any prompting, over a dozen inmates gathered together, joined hands, and recited the Lord’s Prayer. “I saw unity and hope. I saw people choosing something better for themselves and for each other. When this happens, communities are safer and generational incarceration is broken,” said Sheriff Swanson of the Genesee County Sheriff's Office.

#𝟐𝟗 - 𝐒𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐟 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬 𝐒𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧: 𝐑𝐮𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐨𝐫 Chris Swanson is the Genesee County Sheriff best known for peacefully walking with residents during the George Floyd riots and reducing recidivism through his IGNITE program. Now running for Michigan Governor in 2026, many say “where there’s a camera, there’s a Swanson.” So I wanted to sit down and get to know the man beyond the one-minute clips. We talk about his family life, the recent Grand Blanc tragedy, safe patient ratios, reducing crime, vaccine mandates, transparency in government, and more.

I haven't tweeted (is it still called that?) in a while. Had to share this @Faygo Root Beer video that had me giggling because I don't even know where that accent from Chris came from... but he ain't wrong! #MichiganMade #Delicious #Refreshing #RootBeer

@BobDinMI Swanson is a different democrat. Voters are exhausted with divisive rhetoric and don't want status quo. He is exactly what the party needs right now.

Per the Dem side of the Governor's race in Michigan. Some updates and remember I am no one...but this is what I do know for facts: The candidate to watch is Sheriff Swanson. He is the one that can seriously challenge Benson in their primary. Not Duggan, he's an I. Gilchrist is a racist and will only pull votes from Benson in the inner City of Detroit, Pontiac and Saginaw not Flint. Swanson has the City of Flint. Swanson has the UAW/Teamsters (this includes Nurses) vote in Genesee County. Facts. Now think on this long... the path to beat Benson? Here is the ticket: Duggan/Swanson. Easy. Both have multi millions of dollars in their campaign coffers TODAY. Both have a serious campaign team, organization in place TODAY. Including serious hitters from DC, think Biden/Harris staff.... Both have a positive record to run on. PS: Consider this both Duggan and Swanson today have seriously outraised (over $10M when you include various PACs in DC) any Republican candidate other than John James. Fact. It's only June 2025. You think we have a chance to win the Governor's race next year? Your GOP Candidate MUST raise $50 million. I don't want to hear one god damn thing about social media, conspiracy or any other bullshit. MONEY!!!! MONEY!! Why do you think the DeVos's are back in the game? Why do you think Snyder and Engler are back in the game? Why do you think Snyder's deep pocket friend in Kalamazoo is back in the game? MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY NOTHING ELSE MATTERS. Think long on all this... @katie_heid @KevinRinke @brandenburg4mi @DaveBondyTV @MeghanReckling @jethomas58 @MeshawnMaddock @aricnesbitt @sweethomemich @shoesonplease

A moment of divine intervention 25 years ago changed the course of a woman's life. It's also benefitted thousands of families. Former Genesee County Sheriff Robert Pickell gets emotional thinking about the impact that day had on his own life. youtu.be/ix7nKNuFP1k?si…

Women are fastest growing group incarcerated in America, but the system is designed for men. @CountyGenesee Sheriff Chris Swanson is working to change that. @GovWhitmer is taking notice of his IGNITE program as well as a @nytimes best-selling author. youtu.be/CMbweOCmNfY?si…
