Whitmer rails against Michigan Supreme Court striking down 2 coronavirus emergency acts

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer railed against the state Supreme Court's decision to strike down her orders to extend a coronavirus-related state of emergency past April 30 without legislative approval.

“This threat is still very real and the sad irony is on the day that the president was admitted to the hospital with the very virus he called a hoax, the Supreme Court in Michigan undermined my emergency rule, my emergency orders that I’ve had to enact that puts us in the same state as all other states in this nation, to save lives,” Whitmer said on CNN's "State of the Union" on Sunday.

"We’ve saved thousands of lives and the Supreme Court, on a slim majority Republican vote, undermined that effort," Whitmer continued, adding that two Michigan Supreme Court justice seats are up for election.

Like al Democrats, she is a liar through and through.

DJ TRUMP never said CV-19 was a hoax. He said the overblown hyperbolic the sky is falling bull shit is a hoax (not quotes my words.

B*tch projected typical liberal vomit. POTUS never said anything in that context but the liberals right from the start protected the Chicoms and their childish sensitive nature.

Another Michigan Medusa, lipstick on a PSYCHOPATH? Haley Stevens. Look at her face. Listen to her words. Examine her deeds. They can run, but they cannot hide any longer.

If her ideas are so necessary, why won’t her legislature pass them?

These governors believe that they have the right to bypass the entire representative system and become dictators. Something needs to be done about it.

FAKE NEWS!!!!!!

“The court ruled 4-3 that Whitmer’s decision to declare a state of emergency without approval from state legislators was unconstitutional, citing the 1976 Emergency Management Act, which states that “after 28 days, the governor shall issue an executive order ... declaring the state of disaster terminated” or request an extension.”

No the court ruled unanimously that she violated the 1976 law. They ruled 5-4 that earlier law without limits was unconstitutional.

Same oppression, now under the guise of pretending WuFlu is as virulent as or in any other way equal to the Spanish Flu. They even cite the unconstitutional orders as reference.

I predict a request for emergency relief within 24 hours.

You know, I totally agree with your post. Where I wish people would wise up with their comments is when they use words like “prevaricate “. Say what it is so stupid people understand: it’s a LIE! You sound like a politician otherwise.

That is all.

Well it’s just my style of prose. I generally start out with a simple statement like I did: “I hate these liars”. Pretty straight forward. Then, I graduate to more poetic phrasing and alliteration like ‘prevaricating politicians’ when I can think of it and have the time.
