Something that needed to happen ..did.
Lansing was alive today.
The streets were full, and patriots from around the state locked up the town where such tyranny emanates.
God Bless You All!

Wasn’t that YOUR job???

Senate Majority Leader Shirkey is taking to the interwebs, and here on social media, this week in order to engender support to re-open Michigan for business.
Say, didn’t they hold a session in the Michigan Senate just last Tuesday to take action on this very topic?
Can anyone tell me how that went?
Now he wants us to call Gov. Witless’ office to complain?
Did your smoke-filled backroom deal with her people not go according to plan Sen. Shirkey?
Me??? Showing actual leadership.

So, NOW the light bulb is finally going on (or why herd mentality is extremely dangerous).

You know that you’ve been played, right?
And what are you going to do about it?

April 30 ***Corrected***
by KG One • • 2 Comments
Word from my sources tell me that the Michigan Senate had granted Gov. Witless’ extension to her “Emergency Powers” about two hours ago.
This has been sent over to the Michigan House where it is expected to be approved later this afternoon and then signed by the guv.
On the plus side: The extension only lasts until April 30th, when it will be “reevaluated”.
The down side: there was nothing extracted from the guv to put a muzzle on her wanton actions until that date.
Mandatory statewide lock-down? Nothing to address it.
Increased penalties for those found “ignoring” the guv’s commands? Nothing to address that one, either.
Anything else the guv’s staff can conceive to further erode our Constitutional Rights?
Ahahahahahahahahahaha!
Twenty-three days, my friends.
Stay tuned.
*** Going by what was sent to me earlier from my source in Lansing (the Senate’s session was unusually brief), what was passed this morning and then later in the House was SCR 24 (information now posted here).
It will not require the signature of the governor before going into effect (See MCL 30.404 Section 3 (4)).***

What’s good for thee, but not for me holds oh so true for Michigan democrats.

I would be far more concerned with our governor’s actions at this time, than with a bug.

They say that in building and maintaining a brand, messaging is vitally important.
The Guv didn’t stray too far from that lesson tonight.

From the inbox…
I’ve been told that the guv will be holding a statewide town hall, on Thursday, April 2nd at 7:00pm
Even though there was one last week, this is apparently the first one that will be shown here in Southeastern Michigan on every local television station.
Given her SS-orders, they will be taking questions from the public at the link I included above. No chance to attend one of these in person, even though she had the media attending in-person her others forays in front of the TV cameras.
Say, can the governor be cited for violating her own “social distancing” orders?
Will she go over and above her “emergency powers” and announce the cancellation the rest of the public school year because of Detroit?
Will she ask for an extension of her “emergency powers”…due to expire April 13th?
Will she have a plan on how to address the monumental economic damage her orders have caused Michigan’s economy (without blaming Pres. Trump)?
Tune in and find out.
It’s not as if you can go out and do anything else…

Doing something right for a change.

There was a story which a friend of mine passed along to me several years ago regarding early American History, specifically relating to government spending, which I immediately enjoyed and still remember to this day.
It focused on a conversation between one Davy Crockett and a constituent by the name of Horatio Bunce, regarding an appropriations bill in the US House of Representatives. Mr. Bunce took issue with not only the speed the appropriation was made, but why it was even made in the first place. During their conversation, he also drove that point solidly home by reminding the then campaigning Rep. Crockett:
“The people have delegated to Congress, by the Constitution, the power to do certain things. To do these, it is authorized to collect and pay moneys, and for nothing else. Everything beyond this is usurpation, and a violation of the Constitution.”
Let’s just say that Rep. Crockett had an interesting response to that situation to say the least (along with how it guided his future decisions).
So, what does a discussion nearly two centuries ago have to do with Michigan Politics today?

Porkculus – The Revenge

Some readers may recall this term bandied about several years ago, when Congress being Congress, went on a spending spree that can be accurately compared to giving an alcoholic an open bar tab and then being shocked when not only all of the top shelf inventory is cleaned out first, but the rest of the bar as well.
Take a wild guess what happened earlier this week?

And right about now, the law of unintended consequences is kicking in (if you actually believe this was all really “unintended”).
What might this little factoid be, you may ask yourself?
