Reminds you of the (tall?)tales of dissidents in banana republics being executed by firing squad and the family being billed for the ammunition.

Michigan isn’t a banana republic, is it?

Not a tall tale. In the modern era, Iran has done it and it is official policy in China.

Noi, it's actually a physically beautiful state.

Our state government, though, is a product of:

1) Communists (and their fellating sycophants the Democrats) with a plan
2) Imported foreign and domestic cultural rot
3) Pusillanimous 'Republicans' that, every 2 - 4 years, claim to work for the people then do nothing after they're elected.

Hence our latest Republican made catastrophe, Gretchen Whitmer.
