Does anyone know the full process?
If the state legislature votes to impeach, what is next? Does it go to the state Senate for “trial”?
“Hope the state legislators do the right thing.”
They’ve already said that there will be no impeachment of Gov. Whitmer.
Hope the state legislators do the right thing.

We’ll see. The ‘right thing’ isn’t done much anymore. Its actually quite rare in these troubling days.
“If the state legislature votes to impeach, what is next? Does it go to the state Senate for “trial”?”
The leader of the state House has said there will be no impeachment.
Get rid of that SKANK!

The New Mexico governor is as bad if not worse than this idiot in Michigan.
