The Michigan Supreme Court on Monday denied Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s request to extend emergency powers that she invoked to curb the spread of the coronavirus.

The conservative-majority court rejected the Democratic governor’s request to delay the effect of its decision striking down a law she had used to keep intact sweeping orders amid the pandemic.

Executive orders issued under the law “are of no continuing legal effect. This order is effective upon entry,” the court wrote.

Whitmer had asked the justices to give her administration, lawmakers and local health departments 28 days to transition in the wake of the major decision. Last week, her administration quickly reinstituted mask requirements, gathering limits and other restrictions with orders issued by the state health department under a different law.

Somebody tell the local health departments that “unConstitutional” extends throughout the executive branch.

Whitmer: This will all look better to the new Michigan 20 justice court.

I’m searching for nominees in my lists of Dem Party, union bosses, feminist groups, Planned Parenthood, other pro-choice types and BLM people.

Sure is a textbook example of a person who is given a certain amount of power can run amuck very quickly.

She has melted down any political future she MAY have had, IMO.

If you Rob a bank (unlawful like her EO’s) you can’t go eat permission to keep and benefit from the loot for a month so you can have an orderly transition to jail life.

Oh, I do not know...Wisconsin has voted in their share of bad candidates, though. Really, at least for Granholm, Detroit and other Democrat strongholds voted her in.

>>The conservative-majority court rejected the Democratic governor’s request

It was a 6 to 1 decision; so, unless there is only a single commie on the court, it was a BIPARTISAN smackdown. But Faux news wants to make it seem political.
