Amid a litany of Blue state governors who saw the Wuhan Virus as an opportunity to seize absolute control over their citizens, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer has been one of the worst. Whitmer enforced some of the most draconian lock-down measures in the country banning people from most aspects of social and civic life.
As a result of her lust for power, residents in Michigan have begun openly protesting the dictatorial fiats from the governor’s office. The media initially attempted a full-throated defense of the governor; who was previously hand-selected by the DNC club to deliver the state-of-the-union rebuttal to President Trump. However, the citizen revolt has continued and gained momentum…. The flickering embers of the Michigan Tea Party quickly reignited.
Facing increased pressure from within her state, the governor is now attempting to control the enemy before they breech the gates at Governor Whitmer’s Bastille Saint-Antoine:
“I am hopeful that come May 1 we will make some steps forward, and we proceed, if that goes well and we continue to see progress, that we then go into a second phase,” Whitmer said during a tele-town hall hosted by the Detroit Regional Chamber Friday. She said she recognized people are desperate to get back to work and no solution would be zero risk. (more)
This reminds me of the Hong Kong protests.
Americans react to our version of Chinese Communists the same way as Chinese in Hong Kong.

Pennsylvania march (rather, a Michigan style drive by) in Harrisburg noon Monday April 20. If you’re coming from the east, throw your fishing gear in the back (fishing a “life sustaining” activity under the imperial edict) and tell the state trooper you’re headed to State College, Penns Creek.

The Susquehanna River right in front of the capitol is some of the best smallmouth bass fishing I have ever done.

But, don’t eat them, the pollution from the capitol alone could wipe out more than the virus.

I’ll believe it when I see it. Whitmer will not give up her power willingly.

She won’t have much choice. The first event was spur of the moment. The next one will be massive and could wind up long-lasting. She can start blocking off the roads outside the city limits, and checking ID’s, but that will only dig her hole deeper. The Wisconsin leftists occupied their state capitol for weeks and weeks, and her tyranny will be met accordingly and with a sustained effort. I was just thinking of whether I’d be open-carrying when I participated. It just so happens I’ve got a turkey license for Ingham County, so I’ll be in the neighborhood anyway. Not sure open carry at a public assembly is my thing, but there’s always a first time.

Totalitarianism: A system of government where the people have virtually no authority and the state wields absolute control of every aspect of the country, socially, financially and politically. Sounds about right for these blue states. Even with social evolution, societies seem to be destined repeat and forget oppressive societies and their leaders, i.e., Hitler, Stalin, Nicolás Maduro, Castro . . . Whac-A-Mole time is coming.
