Following in the footsteps of the governors of California and New York, the governor of Michigan is also under investigation

Recently, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is facing impeachment and investigation in the wake of a nursing Home death and sex scandal, and California’s civic campaign “Recall (Governor) Newsom 2020” has collected more than 1.5 million signatures. Since then, another Democratic governor has been thrust into the spotlight: Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who is under investigation.

According to FoxNews.com, on Tuesday, March 2, the Michigan Republican Party released a statement calling on Democratic Governor Whitmer and her former health Department director Robert Gordon to “release all information” about the “secret dealings” between the two “.

The statement comes after Whitmer’s office agreed to pay Gordon $155,506 after he abruptly resigned in January, and the details of his departure remain confidential. Republicans want Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel to “launch an immediate investigation” into the matter.

They also called on the state legislature to “issue subpoenas and hold hearings to answer the very simple question: Why did Whitmer pay a former government employee so much money in the midst of a global virus pandemic?

The non-disclosure agreement just adds to that question,” said Michigan Sen. Jim Runestad (D). The government has yet to provide data or information about its COVID (Chinese Communist Virus) policy. We have more than enough reason to investigate the Whitmer administration’s COVID policy.”

Republican lawmakers also called for an investigation into Whitmer’s handling of nursing homes during the coronavirus pandemic.

The day before (March 1), Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Charlie LeDuff announced that he was preparing a lawsuit against Whitmer for the release of data on deaths in state coronavirus nursing homes. The most important thing is that the public has a right to know,” he said. We’ve shut down entire economies and interrupted children’s lives in the name of protecting the most vulnerable. If we can’t protect them, at least we should get an explanation from the governor.”
