Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) issued an executive order earlier this month demanding state agencies more strictly enforce the earlier executive order she issues in response to the coronavirus epidemic.
The most recent order says state agencies must make “enforcement of COVID-19-related laws“ and previous executive orders “a priority.”
According to the Detroit News, some law enforcement leaders are questioning Whitmer’s latest order:
In the past week, the Clare County sheriff took to Facebook to decry what he sees as inconsistencies in Whitmer’s executive orders that granted freedoms to some regions and industries but restrictions on others posing a similar or lower risk for spreading the coronavirus. He expressed frustration with what he called “unconstitutional bull—-.”
Sheriff John Wilson said his Facebook post was in response to two Whitmer orders that opened Detroit’s three casinos at 15% capacity while a Clare County youth livestock auction was nearly canceled because of ongoing restrictions.
Whitmer’s order specifically instructed the State Police to “enforce violations of COVID-19 executive orders and epidemic orders in the same manner as it would enforce any other violation of law, using enforcement discretion as appropriate.”
The Michigan State Police say they “absolutely” will enforce the governor’s order.

So what’s unconstitutional about a knowledgeable governor who knows what’s best for our lives controlling them? (a rhetorical satirical question)
do politicians ever get drug tested?what an idiot she is!
F Her!
Michigan come November vote all these democrats out. I’m a Minnesotan and we need to do the same Omar and Waltz have to go, democrats are destroying our country.
What they need is some responsible “man in a white jacket” to write out some commitment papers for the fine lady.
Like Fauci?
She can go pound sand!
I’m a female but, never would I vote for a woman to hold an office where she wields real power unless she’s a conservative.
And the Michigan State Police wonder why the citizens don’t have their backs when it comes to “Defund Police” or actual attacks on officers…
Just about everything that the mich. governess says is CRAP!!! She is so irresponsible for the job that she has. She and Pelosi are probably sisters. They are stuck in the same mud. But don’t worry, all they have to do is resign and the mud will dry up.
Who would have dreamed that a pandemic would inspire such a bloodlust of power for these otherwise insignificant lefty bean counters. My own gov is suffering the same delusions of grandeur. I hope to see them choke on it.
Tyranny cannot be fought with rhetoric and courts. It requires a sharp sword to end it. That fact has remained true throughout humanity’s history. Sic Semper Tyrannis!
You vill do vhat I say und you vill like it! Heil Whitmer!
“Absolutely” delivered with a hint of sarcasm.
KMA applies when applied with favoritism.
What Covid related laws, I haven’t heard of any, only orders, rules, and mandates, all of which cannot legally carry a penalty of law.
Until we, the people say enough and defy the unjust, ludicrous demands of overreaching politicians, they will continue to step out of bounds of the limits of their authority, not just with the Covid “crisis”, but even afterwards. The time to stand and say NO, STOP is NOW, not later.
Governor Goofy exceeds her constitutional authority Regularly. She KNOWS better but appears to be a Dictator wanna be 4 steps. Impeach her . 2. Vote her out of office in such a way that she will never be able to win a Michigan election ever again3. Employ the same tactics upon ALL Democratic office holders in Michigan.4 Teach UAW members how badly they are being victimized by voting Democrats into office ; show workers the FACTS about what has happened to Democrat run Cities/States
PLEASE do not use the term “Democratic” when referring to this absurd political party known as Democrat party. They are Democrats.
Democratic is a PROCESS, Democrat is a criminal organization intent on overthrowing this country.
When one uses the wrong term they give POWER to the Democrats by making people believe that Democrats believe in Democracy. They do NOT.
