Hundreds of protesters gathered outside the Michigan State Capitol in Lansing as the legislature considered a measure to extend Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s state of emergency declaration. The House of Representatives voted down an extension of the order, but Whitmer claimed she has broad authority to continue the lockdown regardless. This response only adds to the evidence she is abusing her authority amid the coronavirus crisis.
Protesters waved American flags and open-carried firearms as some changed, “Let us in!” and “This is the people’s house, you cannot lock us out.”
Video of the protest spilling over into the capitol building went viral on social media.

The odious witch responded by promptly extending the stay-at-home order for another four weeks.
She is truly vile. And Democrats are pure evil.

Well, that's what over two million democrat voters got for themselves. I wonder if any of them feel sorry about it now? And would they still vote for her again?

I think we can safely say Michigan will have a Republican Governor when Whitmer's term is up! This woman has been a Joke (even on TV)! Michigan is a unique state in which huge numbers of their Residents own two homes. Their official residence and their "up north" Place! Whitmer started off on the wrong foot by decreeing those residents could not travel between their homes. Why not. They are all within a few hours drive, so there were no hotels involved! Then she shut them off from certain items at Home Depot and Garden Centers. Big mistake! She seems to have gone over the edge with her wish to become the Wicked Witch of the North! She doesn't have a prayer of getting re-elected!!

This witch is totally out of control and the courts need to step up before it gets even uglier. She is pretending the State Legislature doesn’t exist. They are not going to be silenced.

Predicted this as well. They're going to start having real violence, and I believe this will lead to a resurgence of "well regulated militias".

Send her down south for a lesson running state government. In November will the voters remember how governors reacted to this virus???

#8; If the voters gave Obama eight years, I don’t have much faith in their wisdom for November.

I noticed just a handful of the protesters wore masks. The police were smart not to try to enforce masking against this crowd!

Prediction: before this is resolved an EMP will be released, effectively completing the destruction of political and community cohesion, and imposing martial law.
Michigan and Maine are already mostly there.
Sites like this of course— and indeed the internet as it is at this moment— will be a thing of the past.
To analyze the Trump Coup and the Corona Crisis as discrete events is to not see what the New World Order has in store, what plans were afoot, and how Trump threw a sabot into the gears.
George Soros as William Tecumseh Sherman marching through every country’s economy to the sea, perching a President Obama as World President, with regional dictators like North America’s Chancellor Hillary leading an EU model of tentacular bureaucracy, is but a blurry sketch of the probable reality of the plan.
As she waits in the shadow of a chifforobe for Biden to keel over, look at Hillary Clinton’s realpolitik notions of Constitutional application of the law (exploit the loopholes like an Islamic terrorist) and respect for Enlightenment values (Marxist dismissal) and Western ideas (hey hey ho ho...) and you have some idea of the kind of “world government,” arising.
...Reducing everyone— in a Churchill-Thatcher portmanteau— to the same level of misery, using other people’s money.
Until it runs out. Then the gulags and the new Global Soviet. Sauron and Mordor. Not the sunny uplands of the Worker’s Paradise.
We tried that already.
We have a social worker friend working with underclass clients, people who for generations have known nothing about working for a living.
They are literally absent any skills— personal hygiene, home economics, any kind of trade or professional culture or tradition.
She extrapolates from her experiences with them that she, therefore, knows what’s best for everyone.
Ergo, to her, the bigger the state’s engagement with people’s lives the better.
Everyone— she reasons— needs her kind of help; it’s just a matter of degree. If you disagree, it’s because you just don’t know any better.
That is the mindset at work among the useful idiots: their charitable outreach Is necessary because all the world is an underclass client.
While the governing of earth of Gene Roddenberry’s United Federation of Planets— in a post-scarcity world society— is certainly a longed-for ideal, we’re not there yet, and Gestapo-like Big Lies and government clamp-downs are regressions to the worst characteristics of the 20th century; the opposite of— dare I say it? - progress.
Henry James said the best, old things, are all Conservative. He was referring to the era of classical Greece, but the idea of standing athwart the future and yelling, “stop,” is the essence of it.
The progressive project has hit its wall. All it can produce is chaos, with no plan beyond it.

Bravo, Michigan. Michigan outside of Detroit needs to secede and become parts of Indiana and Wisconsin.

Events like this will be our answer to every blatant abuse of authority from now on. It's good to see that most Americans have not lost that 1775 spirit. I can't wait to observe the embarrassment that will be experienced by Newsom this week and Wolf's turn is coming.

Pressure is building. I got a long email from a friend today, a writeup by a group of Alabama doctors debunking a lot of what has gone on, and lobbying for ending this lockdown now.
They better let go soon or there will be a lot more of this.

#12 paints a gloomy scenario, not beyond the realm of possibility. The question is how far will the Lord let it go.
