    1. Ab and Flab The point is there has been no objective proof that these methods have ‘saved lives’, yet she is quick to claim victory for them.

    2. Ab and Flab science didn’t dictate the need to ban boating, she just made that up and the foolish people thought that was wonderful. Just like Sheep.

    3. No science in the scientific sense, nuh-uh. We’re just shaping public policy by believing unverified data without rigorous validation. To me, this is akin to unethical research. If you model it, you can believe it?

    1. They’ll be using that term over and over and over, until it becomes normalized. Just like social distancing and every other term that people use daily now that they never said a month ago.

    1. religion is made up.

      btw, foreign commies made up that nwo b.s. you guys dont realize we all know who you are. 🙂

  1. She reminds me of some NPC in fallout where she’s up in her tower. Entire land is nuclear fallout and she’s telling people to wait and adding restrictions on people drinking fresh water. Meanwhile she’s taking showers, feeding her dog fresh water, etc.

  2. I’ve learned that absolutely destroying our economy, and many lives, is worth it. Have another Botox injection off the backs of your tax payers.

    1. Go get a tattoo and a haircut on the way to the movies in Georgia, then blame Obama while you’re at it.

    2. Unless they’re billionaires, these politicians all spend our money for their own lives. It only bothers us when we didn’t vote for them.

    1. @Freedom George Anybody who believes at this point that the red team or the blue team is fighting for them is chugging Kool-Aid. we’re talking about trillions of dollars just hand it over to the richest companies in the world. Trump, Bernie, Hillary, bush… it doesn’t make that much difference. The same policies keep getting passed. They fight on TV and we think it’s real. It’s not real.

    1. @FIRST SGT It figures that someone lacking critical thinking skills would also be unable to spell “through”.

  3. She just needs to Stop being THE Soccer mom with the “Get to your room!”, “Because I said so!” mind set. Some of her “orders” are just over the top and have nothing to do with the science of this.

    1. @robert valli The republican governor poisoned Michigan and continues to evade, along with his buddies, accountability and justice. Gov. Whitmer is being too heavy handed. A case of wrong things for the right reason and a bit of “the end justifies the means”.

    1. @Aria William Briggs, Karl Denninger, Yitzhak ben Israel, and you can click through to many more from those.

    2. @Jamie Andrick ahh yes, Facebook videos, the ultimate source for science. Thanks grandpa I’ll be sure to check out your “source”.

    1. @Ghazwan Hana They need to stay there and clean up the mess they caused by voting for democrats over and over.

  4. The absolute only thing I want to hear from this lady is how she is going to resolve the Flint water corruption issue.

    1. @James Ahern

      nope. it was a repub politician. i know of the issue. repubs steal the money. i lived in red states and counties. the worst places to live. poverty stricken and held back.

    2. To those in this thread politicizing the issue: republicans and democrats have allowed and directly caused a lot of terrible things to happen in this country. Gretchen is the governor in a state where a huge community of people have been victims of what essentially amounts to an organized crime ring (corporate privatization) infiltrating the government (much like what we are experiencing at the federal level). There is no need to speculate about what happened or who’s responsible for it because it is all out there and available for anyone who wants to do their research. There is plenty that she can do. The very first and most basic thing is talking about it. She could start by talking about it on a mainstream news outlet she’s giving an interview on. She could then recommend filing charges against the people involved (Republican, Democrat and otherwise) and reopening the investigation based on the new evidence that has been discovered. I would suggest anyone who cares about people and drinking water read the new huge investigative piece released by Vice and written by Jordan Chariton and his partner Jenn Dize.

    3. Also, MSNBC is no better. Their supposed to be journalists, for crying out loud. It’s such a joke, but my expectations for any of the MSM outlets are so low, I don’t even notice they don’t report news anymore. Their segments are just mindless propagandist filler between the more relevant pharmaceutical ads that pad them. I don’t make it a habit of exposing myself to any of it, but I was hoping she would say something – ANYTHING – about the Flint catastrophe.

    4. @R W thanks for sharing this info! As a Michigander who thankfully didn’t experience the Flint water crisis, it still bothers me that it’s been ongoing and yet all but disappeared from the public eye.

    1. Yes, we are all earning our paycheck on that one. Hope she runs off with Bill Gates, they deserve each other.

  5. Do the needs of the one out weigh the needs of the many? Everyone forgets over 99% of us are NOT affected by covid 19.

  6. she looks like Bruce Jenner 20 years ago, oh and besides that shes on a MSNBC so she qualifies as a perfect guest, full of crap which is equal to there reporters
