Gretchen Whitmer Issues Apology After Mocking Holy Communion with Dorito Chips
Breitbart ^ | 10/12/2024 | ELIZABETH WEIBEL

Posted on 10/12/2024 7:08:02 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) issued an apology after posting a video appearing to mock the sacrament of the Eucharist, noting that she “would never do something to denigrate someone’s faith.”

In a statement provided to Fox2 Detroit by Whitmer’s office, the governor explained that the video, in which she can be seen wearing a Harris-Walz camouflage hat and placing a Dorito chip on the tongue of Canadian author and journalist Liz Plank, was “supposed to be a video about the importance of the CHIPS Act to Michigan jobs.”

“Over 25 years in public service, I would never do something to denigrate someone’s faith,” Whitmer said in her statement. “I’ve used my platform to stand up for people’s right to hold and practice their personal religious beliefs. My team has spoken to the Michigan Catholic Conference. What was supposed to be a video about the importance of the CHIPS Act to Michigan jobs, has been construed as something it was never intended to be, and I apologize for that.”

“she “would never do something to denigrate someone’s faith.”

She does do this on purpose.

She asks for forgiveness every time.

A) She is a psychopath, seriously I would lay money on it

B) Have someone you don’t like spit in your hand. That loogie’s market value is what her apology is worth.

I’m sure you weren’t adult governors of a U.S. State when you did this.

I would be willing to chuckle at this is the”woke” Left wouldn’t take everything a Republican, specifically Trump out of context or take literally.
But since the wanzt to play hard ball , screw ‘em into this as anti Catholic or anti Christian!
Note they never, EVER mock Jews or Islamists!
(They’re starting in on Jews, specifically Israelis!)

The covid merchant of death has no problem killing seniors, the unborn, family businesses and killing "right-to-work" in Michigan.

I firstly wanted to go into an analysis of what her philosophy is relative to her place as governor. I could not.

She is just evil and a liar. The closest thing I could describe her is a “A left wing Dominatrix ideologue obsessed with power and more power and control of all.” Kinda like a Marxist.

True. Came from calcium and callus buildup from beating conservative prisoners in interrogation rooms. Cops let her do it for recreation.

July 18, 2023 AP
Michigan’s attorney general filed felony charges Tuesday against 16 Republicans who acted as fake electors for then-President Donald Trump in 2020, accusing them of submitting false certificates.

You thought it was funny and it backfired so now you have to lie about your mocking Catholics.
