Pot and Kettle: Gretchen Whitmer Says She ‘Can’t Stand Hypocrites’

Have you ever heard the term, “Do as I say, not as I do”? That describes Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer to a T!

The dictator attended Joe Biden’s inauguration, despite keeping her state under strict lockdown for the past several months, and is now defending her attendance by saying “can’t stand people that have one rule for others, and a different one for themselves.”

Girl, what??

Whitmer told WOOD TV:

To the Point host Rick Albin mentioned that many people are upset about Whitmer’s hypocrisy after she told families to avoid travel and seeing their loved ones during Christmas.

“Anyone who would have watched would have seen that we were spaced out, we were outside, and we were masked up,” Whitmer replied.“So that is how we can live and enjoy some important aspects to life and stay safe. I have been following the same directives I have asked everyone else to. I can’t stand those people that have one rule for others and a different one for themselves.”

“I have abided by these precautions but also recognize as the governor of a state — an important state — that played an important role in this inauguration having been invited and having made a decision very close to one when I had to come out here I know that this is a moment that is really important for our state,” Whitmer continued..

“This was something it was an honor to be [at], and I followed all the protocols and I encourage people to do so, as well,” she added.

Yet in December, she joined several other Midwest governors in a joint statement: “If you are planning to travel or gather with other households for the holidays — we urge you to reconsider.”

They added, “Just one infection can cause an outbreak in your community, which could overwhelm our hospitals and put you and your loved ones at risk. We owe it to the brave men and women serving on the front lines of this pandemic to do our part and be smart this holiday season.”

Native American Tribe Condemns Biden Administration’s Secretarial Order

On Thursday, January 21, the day after President Joe Biden’s inauguration, a Native American tribe issued a blistering letter to Biden’s Acting Secretary of the Interior, Scott de la Vega, blasting his Secretarial Order No. 3395. As Energy In Depth reports, the Order “temporarily suspends delegations of authority regarding leasing and permitting on federal lands, with a significantly reduced staff able to approve such items. This order does not halt leasing or existing development, and at its face is a temporary measure, but is certain to create bottlenecks that last well-beyond the 60-day limit on the order.”

De la Vega started serving on January 21, and will remain in an interim capacity until Biden’s nominee, Deb Haaland, is confirmed. The Department of the Interior defended Order No. 3395 by writing, “The Order does not impact existing ongoing operations under valid leases and does not preclude the issuance of leases, permits and other authorizations by those specified. In addition, any actions necessary in the event of an incident that might pose a threat to human health, welfare, or safety will continue.”
