American Thinker: Before President Trump’s State of the Union address in February, most Americans outside of Michigan had never heard of Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer. When she gave the Democrat response to Trump’s tour de force, she impinged ever so slightly on the popular consciousness before lapsing back into obscurity.
Now, perhaps because she’s hoping to be the token woman Groping Joe Biden names as his Vice President, Whitmer is back in the media. It’s doubtful, though, that Americans will be impressed with a woman who has such a vendetta against the President that she’s willing to withhold life-saving medicine and to lie.
Ever since Trump stated his hope that hydroxychloroquine (and a similar drug, chloroquine), when prescribed with azithromycin, could treat coronavirus, the Democrat establishment has been hostile to the drug. Although chloroquine is an old and well-known drug, Nevada’s governor limited its use to the hospital setting only. Whitmer has gone further than that.
Whitmer’s Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs informed all Michigan physicians that they could face “professional consequences” for prescribing chloroquine for any off-label purpose, rather than for the FDA-approved purposes of treating malaria and arthritis. It’s important to understand that off-label use is a common practice and completely legal. Whitmer, however, went so far as to add a dose of East German spying by telling physicians that they must report to the Department of Licensing any information they have about other physicians using off-label chloroquine prescriptions.
The directive wasn’t limited to physicians. The same official notice informed pharmacists that they cannot fill any off-label prescriptions. more here

So, I guess we won’t be seeing this reported in the MSM…
“The same official notice informed pharmacists that they cannot fill any off-label prescriptions.”
These tyrannical traitors should be making your blood BOIL.
So many lies!!!
Gretchen Half-Whitmer. Trump knows how to get under their skin.
Don’t blame this dumb ass democrat commie twat for her evil ways, blame the dumb ass voters who actually elected her.
Until voters in places like Michigan, New York, and California pull their empty heads out of their asses democrat communists will continue occupy positions of power in this country.
Suicide by voting on full display in Michigan.
She’s barking dog nuts so Democrats love her.
She reminds them of…them.
She is another prime example of a huge number of examples of why the 19th Amendment needs to be repealed!
Does she actually have the constitutional and legal authority to do this?
Not that anyone cares about the Constitution or law during this time of such a severe crisis (unless it’s regarding what the other side is doing, your own being unquestionably right about it when they do it).
I suggest we ban all registered Democrats from receiving these drugs for the Wuhan flu.
Take a jab at POTUS Trump and expect a combination counter punch 🤛 🤜.
The legal authority question is an interesting one. Federally, we passed the Right to Try law, which the Michigan Governor’s order would seem to directly contravene. I would think that Federal law would prevail, but that is a question for the supreme court. I’m typically a state’s rights advocate, but even within the state, I’m not sure she has the legal authority to withhold potential life-saving treatment.
Meanwhile how many people wind up as dead democRAT voters because of totalitarian Asswipes like her?
Dear Michigan residents: Just cross the border to another state for your medical needs. Obamacare has to support your choice.
Dear Michigan Governor: Eat shit.
With her tyrannical proclamation, Whitmer signed the death certificates of people who might otherwise live to celebrate many more birthdays. How is this different than all the brutal dictators who practiced genocide against the citizens of their realms?
President of Hillsdale College, Larry Arnn, might consider relocating for the duration. A greater loss to that excellent institution I cannot fathom.
Don’t blame Michigan voters for this embarrasment. She was elected because of two things: 1. The piece of crap R who won the primary did a Mitt Romney – he laid down like a dog (no offence, doggies!) and did nothing after he won the primary. In fact, he worked harder to beat the very qualified Lt govenor who he was running against. See the Mitt connection?
2. Voter fraud (mostly illegal aliens) in Detroit and some of the smaller Democrat held cities, elected her.
I mentioned to my sister that she should be recalled, but she reminded me of the even worse Lt govenor. No, we will have to wait until 2022 to get rid of her.
It’s a win for them, AA; depopulation is their goal…to a point where it is just them, and those ‘lesser beings’ they need to serve them.
She needs to travel down to her local Covid-19 plague ward,lock arms with all of them and whisper in their ear as to why your letting them die.
The blood is on the hands of dems as it is every time there is a crisis and they go out of their way to politicize it. Denying life saving treatment and finger pointing instead of trying to solve a problem. And likely they aren’t passing out supplies much like what happened in Puerto Rico where they just kept supplies in a warehouse and then claimed shortages. Trump is right, sick puppies.
“Loser Governor from Michigan is trying to fight a battle with President Trump that she can’t win.” Fixed it!
One thing I’ve learned in the past 10 years is that a lot of the women with power in this country are gawdawful, stupid, fascist cunts from Hell who shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near power of any kind, ever, due to both their nastiness and their boundless idiocy.
The problem with hydroxychloroquine, chloroquine, and azithromycin, is that it’s cheap. The drug companies want to come up with a miracle cure and charge $5000 – $10,000 per treatment. Who sold all our pharmaceuticals to China? Drug companies, Democrats, Obamacare, all fu¢ked up $hit that needs to go.
A third reason to add to Claudia’s list-
Michigan voted in favor of Proposal 1, which legalizes recreational use of Marijuana for adults 21 and older. Election brought out over a million more voters than the previous gubernatorial election.
Why is Bruce Jenner talking about Michigan?
