The Michigan Conservative Coalition is holding a vehicle protest on Wednesday to drive home opposition to Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s executive orders, which have closed schools and businesses and forced residents to stay home under penalty of fine or imprisonment.

Thousands signed up to attend the event via Facebook, with the goal of surrounding the state capitol building in Lansing at noon ET.

“Michigan’s typical small business owners obey laws, but they may not notice the progressive agenda being pushed by our radical leftist Governor Whitmer,” said Rosanne Ponkowski, president of the Michigan Conservative Coalition.

“Dope shops are open, while cigar shops are closed.”

“We can get this rally done and stay within the social distancing guidelines,” said Marian Sheridan, cofounder of the group.

Organizers have asked attendees to stay in their cars and drive around the capitol honking their horns and waving signs to voice their displeasure with what they say are Whitmer’s overbearing orders.

Michiganders are also venting their frustration on an online petition calling for Whitmer’s recall from office, which currently has over 245,000 signatures

Detroit is a pig sty.

Tijuana is a pig sty.

Detroit is more of a shooting gallery.

To Wretched Whitmer: DO YOU HEAR THE PEOPLE HONK, HONKING THE HONKS OF ANGRY MEN, IT IS THE MUSIC OF A PEOPLE WHO WILL NOT BE SLAVES AGAIN. WHEN THE BEATING OF THEIR HORNS ECHOS THE BEATING OF THE DRUMS, THERE IS A LIFE ABOUT TO START WHEN TOMORROW COMES... (Will you join in the crusade? Who will be strong and stand with them? Beyond the barricade Is there a world you long to see? Then join in the fight That will restore your right to be free...) Michigan better correct Her errors or there will be pitchforks and torches. I'm too old but I see it in the eyes of the young. Politicians who never worked a day in their lives.cannot be allowed to (continue to) suspend Our Constitution.

“250,956 have signed. Let’s get to 300,000!”

Sign it at your own risk. It's nothing more than a data collection site that is going to use the information you provide for marketing purposes.........

It has no legal basis to impeach anyone whatsoever..........

One of the costs of supporting any causes...most will honor an unsubscribe”, but I also mark them as spam and my email interface (Thunderbird) slaps them in the Spam folder with the other junk for easy removal.
