Gretchen Whitmer Took Detroit Businessmen’s Plane to Florida: ‘You Can’t Tell a Governor No’
Breitbart ^ | 05/06/2021 | Kyle Olson

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) took a private jet to Florida in March, violating the spirit of her orders for everyone else not to travel.

Deadline Detroit reported Whitmer “asked a group of wealthy Detroit businessmen to provide a private plane they share” so she could travel to Florida. She later said it was so she could visit her “ailing” father.

"Reporting for Deadline Detroit, Charlie LeDuff said Whitmer spent four days in Florida, not the two she claimed:"

LeDuff rocks.

It's a long story, once in a lifetime treat/opportunity, I won't bore you, I flew on one once, it was beyond sweet.

So she didn't have to sit in a flying ****ing bus w/ attendants threating you with permanent banning and the TSA hauling your @$$ of if you give them one lick of crap about a mask.

She flew without a mask and probably had a mixed drink or two.

I am so sick of her.

This is what Medical Marijuana voted in and a State GOP dumb as a box of rocks.

“It’s maddening,” Whitmer said of the criticism and allegations of hypocrisy, adding, “A lot of these same people would accuse me of not having family values if I didn’t show up when a family member needed some help.”

Whitmer’s office said she went to visit her “elderly father who is battling a chronic illness.”

But Great Lakes News spotted her father, Richard Whitmer, back in the state just days later at “a Lansing shopping area and was seen getting into a Tesla and driving away.”

Last year when the Chicom virus lockdowns heated up around rat states, my wife tagged Whitmer as a classic high school “mean girl” who lives off emotion and hates everyone who doesn’t adore her.

Seems we can’t get real conservative GOP in this state. I was a child when Romney was gov and the liberal Milliken. I really did not know what to make of Snyder.

"She flew on the businessmen’s Gulfstream G-280 twin jet.

It was cold and clear on the morning of March 12 when she lifted off from Lansing (KLAN) and it was warm and sunny when she touched down in West Palm Beach (PBI) at 9:37 a.m., federal flight records show.

She left West Palm Beach on Monday March 15 at 4:37 p.m. She touched down at 7:01 p.m in Lansing."

Anyone got AirAware historical flight access? They only offer the past 2 weeks for free.

Never mind. Here are the deets...

"The Nicholson family of PVS Chemicals, the Moroun family of the trucking company Central Transport and the Cotton family, which formerly ran Meridian Health, are among those who use the Gulfstream G280 flown by Air Eagle LLC, according to a source with knowledge of the arrangement."

Likely the same 'source' that is appropriately griping to the media anonymously.
