A few notes from Govenror Whitmer's press conference yesterday:
First, they proved the new lockdown is a SCAM.
Dr Khaldoun sated that cases per million have been going DOWN every day for 22 days.
Rising cases per million was the justification for the new lockdown.
1/
Both of those things cannot be true.
Next, if you have to use the term "safe & effective" before the word vaccine every single time, then I'm betting it's not nearly as safe or effective as you claim.
2/
Unemployment has been extended until March, but she now is asking the State Legislature to make Covid-19 unemployment benefits PERMANENT.
Yes, that's right, if you claim fear of COVID-19, you will be entitled to PERMANENT UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS if she gets her way.
3/
She wants the mask mandate codified into law.
For those who argued with me that she didn't really say that the last time, it's on yesterday's video.
She wants masks required until the "vast majority of Michiganders receive the vaccine".... Her words.
4/
This means:
1. You can be ARRESTED for not wearing one. 2. The government will be tracking your private health records, in violation of several statutes, to track how many people are vaccinated. 3. I guarantee you that you will have to prove vaccination to not wear a mask.
5/
This is contrary to our system of due process and our assumption of innocence.
She stated that 2,000 people died over the last 2 weeks because the legislature didn't pass these pieces of law, which is disgusting and inaccurate.
They died (allegedly) from a disease.
6/
She complained that the Legislature was only in session 6 days of the last 21, implying it was their fault that they weren't in session.
The majority of the time frame she complained about SHE ORDERED THEM CLOSED due to, you guessed it, COVID.
7/
One a related note, as we saw Monday, when people try to arrive at the Capitol to hold a session, she has ordered the Michigan State Police to deny entrance.
8/
In summary, this woman intends to PERMANENTLY control your life and use COVID to force socialism on Michigan.
She lies nonstop.
Stop listening to her.

I posted a photo on FB of me with @ScottPresler, announcing the clean up done in a Detroit neighborhood.
Immediately, one of my liberal friends had something to say about my having done it with Scott.
This brings something up...
1/
It should not matter ONE BIT who did the cleanup.
Not one bit.
It was an act of love done with a local church to prove that #BlackLivesMatter, rather than incessant virtue signaling on Social Media.
2/
The most vocal white liberal people speaking that #BlackLivesMatter and all that, would NEVER venture into any neighborhood off Outer Drive in Detroit.
NEVER.
But they're ready to condemn what we did, just because someone who vocally supports the President was there.
3/
We've got to stop with the arguments that Kamala Harris isn't a Natural Born Citizen & thus ineligible to be VP.
She was born in Oakland, California so she is a natural born citizen, regardless of her parent's status.
This argument hurts our cause... Let me explain.
1/
First, when you make that your main argument, you detract from all the reasons that she is a horrible candidate, like her history as AG, her positions on issues, and her documented lies.
Stick to issues, not identity.
We're better than they are.
2/
Second, as I just mentioned, it's the identity politics we all claim to hate.
When you say this, you're opening yourself up to leftists claims that your real objection is because she has brown skin.
Don't make it easy for them to discredit your position.

An ex post facto law (Latin: lit. 'out of the aftermath') is a law that retroactively changes the legal consequences (or status) of actions that were committed, or relationships that existed, before the enactment of the law.
They are prohibited by the federal government in the US Constitution at Article 1, Section 9, Clause 3.
They are also prohibited by state governments at Article 1, Section 10.
The original assault weapons ban didn't violate this section, because you were allowed to retain any banned firearms and magazines that you already possessed.
