Whitmer’s Lockdowns Decimating Small Business
Beyond shocking. Just plain sickening.
Bruce Walker of The Center Square reports that “Pandemic restrictions forced 32% of Michigan businesses to close at least temporarily, the most of all 50 states in the nation, federal data show.
Only Puerto Rico, a U.S. territory where 50% of businesses closed, ranked higher.”
And: “Michigan’s Department of Health and Human Services instituted the three-week prohibition on indoor gatherings of 10 people or more on Nov. 15, and extended those rules until Dec. 20. Businesses caught violating DHHS rules may be subjected to fines of $1,000 a day.”

Discussing Voter Fraud in Lansing
The “everyday” Michiganders who testified before the MI House Oversight Committee about election irregularities, yesterday, were compelling, well spoken, and diverse.
For example, here’s Ms. Hima Kolanagireddy.
P.S. Chairman Matt Hall, a Republican from Marshall, did a fine job moderating a volatile hearing and pushing back against this bullying rep.
Remembering Tom Casperson
The ECRP is very sad to learn of the death of former state Senator Tom Casperson of Escanaba.
While Tom represented the UP for 15 years in the state legislature, he often attended events outside his district, like the Lincoln Day Dinner, in Petoskey. He was a cordial man who didn’t shy away from being a strong advocate of lower taxes and less regulation particularly when it came to forests and wetlands.
The MI Senate GOP Twitter page tweeted: “Today we lost a titan of the Upper Peninsula … our thoughts and prayers are with Tom’s family as we grieve the loss of our friend.”
Mr. Casperson was 61 years old.

Classy Patriots Flock to the Nation’s Capital
The glorious, orderly scene at today’s Million MAGA March in Washington, D.C.
Law enforcement are estimating 200,000 (but possibly 500,000) people attended the historic event including a drive-by from the President.

Twas the Night Before the Election …
and POTUS and the VEEP came to northern Michigan for one final campaign push! Hello, Traverse City.
Kudos to the red wave supporters that braved the blustery weather, for many hours, to support Donald J. Trump and Mike Pence. Let’s Roll!
