Critics of Michigan's expanded stay-home order are planning an in-vehicle protest to tell the governor they believe she has gone too far.

"We must continue to do everything we can to slow the spread and protect our families. Data shows that most Michiganders are doing their part by staying home and staying safe. That’s good, but we must keep it up."President Donald Trump's extension with federal social distancing guidelinesDuring a press conference Monday, Whitmer said the Michigan Freedom Fund is funded in-part by the family of U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, something she called"inappropriate.

Whitmer's new order has been blasted for its inconsistencies, as it allows the sale of lottery tickets at stores larger than 50,000 square feet, but not paint or gardening tools, and lets non-Michigan residents travel to their cottages in the northern part of the state, but not Michigan residents. Kristi Greulich See, of Plymouth, west of Detroit, said she agreed with Whitmer that the first three weeks of the stay-home order were needed to allow government and medical officials to learn about the virus and plan a proper response.

Dr. Joneigh Khaldun, Michigan's chief medical executive, however, has warned against loosening restrictions.

So they want to be number one in infected and death per 1 mill pop? They're 4th in both rn wth, must be the trumptards

No she didn’t if others had?!

I support govwhitmer .. health first. NOTHING matters without health.

Stupid people, go back and take consequences!

They should all talk about it in a crowded room before they go

Let. The country open. Take off a month. Stay home and watch it burn!

The only people'protesting' is MAGA azzholes . She's trying to save lives.

SHE HAS!!!!😡

Democrats are tyrants at heart.

It's too bad that people have death wishes.

Way over the line!

Save your gas. Stay home!

Cukoo Cukoo this woman is as bad as your newspaper and that’s bold!!!!! Ruination of America is playing out live!!!

She looks like she needs some COVID 19 sex to release some of that stress

Obviously some people aren’t paying attention to what’s going on around them. I live in Washington State. People thought they were safe by using hand sanitizer not being close to each other. It wasn’t enough. Thankfully we have a governor with the forethought to keep us safe.

30 more days and riot police will be out in full force around the country ... and not because of stay at home orders!

What’s wrong with you?!!! We need to keep up the good fight or it will be even longer. Get over yourselves.

Come to FL where our governor doesn’t give a crap ... at least your governor cares!

Auditioning to be sleepy Joe's VP. Too bad her state has the highest death rate in the country.

That's funny an in-vehicle protest. There protest proves she's right. GOPIDIOTS FoxNewsPlague DobbsGenocide2020 TrumpOwnsEveryLupasDeath LahrenIsALoser

A little tyrant. RiseupMichigan

Let them die 🍻stop worrying about fools 🍻there’s shallow ground to bury their bodies 🍻it’s time to stop worrying about foolish ppl🍻u can’t save everyone so let them die 🍻

In November vote against her and or her cronies!!

recallwhitmer

In vehicle lmao. Cuz, u know, coronavirus...

You can’t buy seeds for plants but you can buy lottery tickets. I think that all you need to know

Very strange

3 studies are out that this virus is not what we are being sold people need to wake up! You don’t like what’s going on then you need to think about voting differently in November

Democrats love socialism and that’s what they got! Socialist communist Michigan!

Sure, get mad at the person trying to save your lives. Morons

Way to protest the order by still slightly complying with it.

So these people would rather be intubated and be on a ventilator rather than being inconvenienced for a short time? Ok got it. 🙄 StayHome

Well then why don’t they get out of their cars and hold hands then?

They should all have a party at Kid Rock’s house.

I wonder if they will be ticketed for violating the EO. 🤔

Yeah, she's a complete nut job.

Stop the Spread ... Stay at Home

If they really wanna hit her, ask her why she won't free Michael Alonzo Thompson.

Patriot Movement Calls On Followers To Defy COVID-19 RestrictionsIn the rural Northwest, far-right elected officials, and the militias they're aligned with, are calling for defiance of statewide stay-at-home orders, including one issued by Idaho's GOP governor. They are idiots and want virus to kill millions more. I say arrest them and put them in those nice jail cells that most inmates want to get out of. Have fun killing yourself and thanks for disregarding the well being of the commons.
