Hello, we really shouldn't be surprised.
Yesterday, State Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey was caught on a hot mic saying he doesn't take back his statement that the attack on the U.S. Capitol was a "hoax" that was "prearranged." As if his rhetoric wasn't alarming enough, he also has a long track record of sexism targeted at Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
He's called Governor Whitmer a "princess" -- a term he likes to reserve specifically for his attacks against accomplished women -- he even joked about challenging her to a fistfight and bragged about "spanking" her by resisting her legislative agenda.
Name calling is the only trick Mike Shirkey knows when challenged by a powerful woman. And he's downright scared of the fact that Governor Whitmer is a better leader than he is.
Rush a donation now to send a clear and unmistakable message that we stand with Governor Whitmer against Mike Shirkey's increasingly desperate attacks:

Governor Whitmer fights for us and she always has our backs. Now, we need to have hers.
Thank you,
Michigan Dems
