Last Thursday a peaceful protest occurred at the Michigan capitol with people who are sick of the draconian state lockdown and want to back to being able to feed their families. Michigan’s psycho dictator Governor Gretchen Whitmer answered the plea of her people by accusing them of being a bunch of racists and followed that up by telling them all to “suck it.” Interestingly enough, this protest that was covered by literally every news outlet in the country doesn’t show the racism Whitmer describes. Also interesting, none of the liberal media outlets questioned her.
Whitmer went on CNN yesterday to badmouth the people she is supposed to represent. Host Jake Tapper asked her about the Thursday protest at the Michigan capitol:

“Displays like the one that we saw at our capitol is not representative of who we are in Michigan. There were swastikas and Confederate flags and nooses and people with assault rifles,” said Whitmer.
Pictures or it didn’t happen. Oh wait, here’s a picture of the protest and there doesn’t appear to be any of those symbols of racism Whitmer claimed were there:
I see an American flag, but no Confederate flag and definitely no swastikas and nooses. CNN certainly didn’t throw up any pictures of this racism.
“Some of the outrageousness of what happened at our capitol depicted some of the worst racism and awful parts of our history in this country,” said Whitmer.
She left out the part about how Confederate flags and nooses are part of the Democratic Party’s history.
This Whitmer interview was covered extensively by the liberal media and not one single outlet provide a picture of protesters flaunting the symbols of hate Gov. Whitmer said they had:

The NY Daily News: Michigan Gov. Whitmer says some protesters reflected ‘the worst racism and awful parts’ of U.S. history (no pix)
Not only did the NY Daily news provide no pictures, they stated very matter-of-factly…
Some of the protesters carried Confederate flags and swastikas.
…as if that were true. Where are the pictures of protesters carrying Confederate flags and swastikas?
As I said, this protest was heavily covered and completely overblown by the liberal media. If these protesters were displaying all of these “racist” symbols, why is it that not one single picture exists to prove it?
This is fake news at its worst. The people of Michigan have a legitimate gripe that they are being forced into poverty and cannot provide for their families. Rather than admit that Michigan’s democratic despot is wrong for keeping the state locked down, they try to discredit honest Americans who simply don’t want their children to starve to death.
And the reason the liberal media is siding with Whitmer’s lie is because the left wants the coronavirus lockdown and economic crash to go on until the November election so they can win back power and impose socialism upon us all.
