LANSING, Mich. — Gov. Gretchen Whitmer signed an executive order Friday requiring people to wear masks when they are in an indoor public space and in crowded outdoor spaces. The order requires any business that is open to the public to refuse entry or service to people who aren't wearing a face covering, with limited exceptions. Governors in Kansas, Maine, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Washington have imposed similar requirements on businesses, a news release from the governor's office said.

Comments:

Even as death rates plummet. Make no mistake. This has nothing - zero - to do with the pandemic.

She didn't exempt BLM rioters? She may be a racist as well.

They do virtually nothing against the virus. They may slow the spread of bacterial infections but that's it. Masks are a distractive visual cue to the sheep that the politicians in the world are actually doing something .

#6 there are several groups trying to stop her. She has violated the State Constitution regarding emergency orders. The State House took her to court and lost. She is out of control and at this point despised by most of the voters including Democrats. I don’t think the cops will enforce this and some have already said so. It is the businesses that will be punished by this jackass. And they have been punished enough.

Ha! That's nothing. Wuhan Lujan in New Mexico said last night that her subjects must wear a mask at all times. Inside, outside, walking the dog, working out, running, in the gym any time you are out of the house. She also closed the restaurants again. She did however let the restaurant owners know that she is not to blame, no, no, no! It is the citizens of New Mexico who are to blame! Yep, she actually said it. Most Sheriffs and local police will not enforce her edicts but the her storm trooper State Police dang sure will! They've got retirement to think of don't ya know. I'm not sure about the local police in Albuquerque, Santa Fe or Las Cruces? they will probably enforce for her, but that's cool they voted for the bit--um yea wont go there.

No, #8 -- she has been acting unilaterally since April. Regrettably, the Republican majority in the legislature does not have the stones to mount an effective challenge to her abuse of power. Some judges have struck down her edicts, but she just shops higher courts to overturn those decisions. I doubt any fines would hold up in court, but it's expensive to defend oneself against even specious prosecution. She has impressed private businesses to enforce her lawlessness, much like merchants are impressed into collecting sales taxes.

Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out,

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.
