FLINT, Mich. - The Genesee County Board of Commissioners has postponed a decision on whether to continue using Flock cameras, following strong public opposition.
The cameras, installed throughout the county, are funded by a grant. Concerns were raised at a recent meeting about privacy and data collection.
One resident expressed, "I don't think this is good for the U.S. I don't think it's good for Michigan. I certainly don't think it's good for Genesee County."
Another resident, who initially supported the cameras, now opposes them due to privacy concerns.

- Description
- President Donald Trump's border czar, Tom Homan, announced Wednesday morning that he will drawdown 700 officers from Minnesota, effective immediately, as a result of local and state officials cooperating by turning over arrested immigrants.
Homan was sent to Minneapolis last week in an attempt to end the violence and tensions between the roughly 3,000 federal agents and the community protesting their presence.
Protests escalated in Minnesota last month after immigration enforcement agents shot and killed a mother of three, Renee Good, and ICU nurse Alex Pretti.
Homan said the decision to remove hundreds of immigration officers from the state came after his discussions with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, state Attorney General Keith Ellison, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, and numerous police chiefs and sheriffs, all of whom agreed that community safety is paramount.

Border czar Tom Homan said on Thursday that he will stay in Minneapolis "until the problem is gone" after President Donald Trump tapped him to lead an immigration crackdown, following the departure of Border Patrol commander at large Gregory Bovino from the state.
"I've been on the ground less than three full days. I got in here on Monday. The President of the United States called me Monday morning and asked me to deploy here," Homan told reporters. "Got here Monday evening, and I'm staying till the problem's gone."
Homan added that Trump promised the American people, including residents in Minnesota, that he would work to make sure communities are safe and ensured the administration "is absolutely focused on identifying removal aliens that pose a public safety threat and national security threats."

- How will Trump Accounts work?
- Date posted
- 2 months ago
- Description
- _______________
The Trump administration has unveiled a new initiative, dubbed "Trump accounts," which it claims will be a transformative financial opportunity for American families. President Donald Trump announced that starting in 2025, the Treasury Department will deposit $1,000 into an investment account for every American child born with a valid Social Security number through 2028. Additional contributions of up to $5,000 can be made by parents, employers, churches, states, and loved ones. The administration projects that with modest contributions, these accounts could grow to at least $50,000 by the time the child reaches 18.
