Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer Bans Buying US Flags During Lockdown
The Republic Post ^ | 04/12/20

Posted on 04/13/2020 9:00:46 AM PDT by Enlightened1

Crazed Democrat Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer prohibited big box retailers from in-person sale of seeds because according to her, food is non-essential.

‘Crisis gardens’ or ‘victory gardens’ were always encouraged during a time of war or a time of crisis to supplement rations and boost morale.

But the tyrannical governor of Michigan barred grocery stores and brick-and-mortar retailers from selling vegetable seeds.

In late March Michigan Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer limited access of doctors from prescribing the lifesaving drugs hydroxychloroquine and Z-Paks to save senior citizens in the state from Coronavirus.

Hydroxychloroquine and Z-Paks have are widely used by doctors the world over to treat the Coronavirus.

In total this past week alone, Governor Whitmer has banned packaged seeds, tiling, carpet, flooring… And US flags.

Why are we perpetuating this spin? She ordered the end of sales of everything “non-essential”. Which includes flags. And millions of other products. Stupid, tyrannical, but she is NOT banning flags.

As usual, the Republicans in the state (and everywhere else) are useless and have rolled over , played dead and do absolutely nothing to at least try stop her. Pathetic.

The Democrats want a run on seeds so they can control all food supplies.

My Republican family lives across the street from their Republican family in Brooklyn Michigan. They are not allowed across the street, and didn’t go to a planned Easter dinner. You see, people have cell phones. People with cell phones are recording violations, and the Po’Po’ are fining people based on their addresses. No need to make a visit, take the report and mail out a ticket. If you want to dispute it, you will have to show up to court. Maybe the date will pass without you noticing?

Where does an unelected Bureacracy like the FDA get the authority? Now we are getting to the nub of the problem in America. We are RULED by people we can never meet, who can never be fired, who were never chosen. Who write regulations without the “Consent of the Governed” Even the POTUS cannot lift these regulations.

Oddly enough, the program is called "AOC," for Architect of the Capitol. Flag request is accessed via links provided for U.S. Reps and Senators on the web page. Each of the congress critter websites has a link to the Flag Request form and instructions for completing the request form and payment. Flags flown over the Capitol take substantially longer to receive than those not raised up the flagpole.

The American flag should never be considered non-essential.

I think her argument is that she is preventing crowds at public boat launches..........I can't even speculate the number of people here in S.E. Michigan who live on the canals along Lake St. Clair that don't require boat launches and that goes for the people on the inland lakes with their own docks.........

April 25 is opening day of trout season here which typically brings large crowds of fishermen to many popular rivers and streams. With the stay at home ban, that ain't going to happen this year........

Whitmer is insane and has no idea what she is doing.......

"Marijuana was on the ballot."

It must have been in the air.

Can you eat it? Fix your plumbing? Really if you’ve gotten this deep into the panic without a flag, you can make it the rest of the way.
