If Gov. Rick Snyder is passionate about wrapping up the budget by June 1, he'll need the help of a conservative House caucus that is passionate about seeing an income tax cut, says Rep. Gary Glenn (R-Larkin Twp.). Could the two subjects be linked? Glenn talks about that, why House Speaker Tom Leonard (R-DeWitt) earned respect during the failed income tax vote among conservative circles, President Donald Trump and other subjects.

Also, Mona Hanna-Attisha is the Flint pediatrician known for flagging the Flint water crisis, but her speech in front of the progressive summit this past weekend touched on numerous other political topics. Could a future run for office be in her future? The MIRS team talks about this, fallout from Trump's telephone wire tapping claims and a media whose credibility is under assault.
