In this episode, Brink and Tom talk with Dan McCarthy, an attorney who has led the charge against Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer on behalf of his clients and ultimately the people of the state. It’s not a battle that Dan has aspired to wage, but felt was his duty to do so. 

A few things that came up:

-Gov: “why are you politicizing these shutdowns?”

-Dr. Fauci flip flops

-George Floyd protests and the Gov front and center

-My shutdown orders don’t apply to 1st amendment protests

-Shutdown Movie theater owner wanted to do a “protest” movie showing for Juneteenth

-Appellate court overturned circuit court 

-Wanted to make sure no governor can shutdown economies

-The federal government doesn’t have the authority issue mandates

-The President being blamed by Whitmer

-She’s akin to Mayor Cooper

-Pulling other Nashville officers from detail to enforce mask mandates

-Every one of these politicians is in a tough spot
