Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI) finds herself at the center of the news cycle amid COVID-19, on account of her far-reaching stay-at-home order. Gov. Whitmer’s order is one of the most strict, and is being criticized as a constitutional overreach. Michigan lawmakers, including Democrats, are evidently frustrated with Gov. Whitmer’s harsh order.
Democrat Mike Duggan, Mayor of Detroit, called his state’s system for reporting COVID-19 “not reliable,” as hospital officials also blame the state government for an inefficient system that ultimately leads to longer wait times.
Michigan State Rep. Karen Whitsett, a Democrat representing Detroit, alleged that Gov. Whitmer was giving federal officials incorrect information on the COVID-19 situation in Detroit, and told a Michigan news outlet that Gov. Whitmer was not doing enough:
“There is no need for me to have a conversation with someone who is not doing anything. I mean, if you are going to do something, then I want to have a conversation with you. If you are not going to do anything, I don’t have time to have a conversation with you. I have people dying in my city. I don’t have time to waste,” Rep. Whitsett said.

She will not listen, she is doing all of this to be the anti-Trump VP for Biden.
“Michigan State Rep. Karen Whitsett, a Democrat representing Detroit...”
An impressive lady. Not afraid to speak the truth.
The dingbat bells are tolling for Whitmer.
Why would anyone want to get on the road to defeat with Biden? They’d just get humiliated.
Remember in November.
Australian are getting restless tonite (Australia time). this went from purely opt-in when we woke up and has already moved to potentially mandatory! no thanks, say many Australians:
17 Apr: ABC: Deputy Chief Medical Officer doesn’t rule out forcing Australians to download the Government’s coronavirus tracing app
Deputy Chief Medical Officer Paul Kelly has not ruled out making the Government’s coronavirus tracing app compulsory for all Australians.
The app will use data from people’s phones to tell health authorities who has been in close contact with a confirmed COVID-19 case, and who may need to be tested.
The Government has said 40 per cent of Australians would need to sign up to the app for it to have enough data to function properly.
When asked if the panel of health experts advising the Government was considering recommending the app be compulsory if less than 40 per cent of people signed up, Professor Kelly said making it voluntary at first was “the way to go”...
Speaking on Hobart’s Triple M radio station earlier on Friday, the Prime Minister also did not rule out making the app mandatory...
“I’d be calling on Australians to do it, frankly, as a matter of national service.”...

It almost seems like a world-wide power play set on us by China. If it is, our media and democrats are playing right along.
in Australia, the it’s a conservative govt, which is what is making people even angrier, especially their supporters.
We have many so-called conservatives here who aren’t worth a cup of warm spit. Can’t trust anyone in politics these days.
But she hates Trump! Isn’t that enough?
Australia isn’t allowing doctors to prescribe HCQ according to a news article I read.
Dam is cracking. She’s about to blow.
She’s dead , Jim.
Kaput!
Biden will drop out by Halloween so I hope all the Democrats vote early this year.
she hates Trump
Read another release from Pelosi and thought the same, what has she done as Speaker of the House of Representatives of The United States the last two years besides hate Trump? I could not come up with one single thing.
When it comes to her replacement the Michigan GOP should not allow the Democrat Party (in name only) candidates (very likely there will be a bunch) to dominate the scene during the state primary but attack each one by promoting conservative values.
The correct spelling of her name is Wit-less.
Whitmer was on GMA this morning trashing Trumps plan w/ the help of George Stepo. It was a screen test for her next part as Biden’s VP. She is anti-Trump and comes from the rust belt. Some lilly livered left wing nuts will agree w/ her plans.
