And Jon talks about another story he published detailing the dark money forces funneling money to MAGA Michigan Supreme Court candidate Andrew Fink. 39:32-39:56: Last Call--MI Oxfam Ranking DropIn this week's "Last Call," Pat covers another story by Michigan Advance's Jon King, which describes how Michigan dropped to #31 in Oxfam's "Best States To Work Index."
