Gretchen "The Witch" Whitmer Lies Outrageously: I Only Kept Kids Out of School For Three Months

Tudor Dixon prosecuted the case against Gretchen Whitmer, forcing her to lie.

That's wrong -- no one forced Gretchen Whitmer to lie. Her mouth naturally assumes the position of a lie, as it naturally shapes itself into other accommodatingly venal positions as well.

Confronted on her draconian lockdowns and the permanent damage this witch inflicted on children, Whitmer chose the Eternal Democrat Strategy of just lying outrageously and trusting the leftwing propaganda media to cover for you, and write "fact" checks claiming that your lies are "mostly" true (except for the Huge Lie parts).

As Nick Arama points out -- check out her smirk as she says this. She's not only lying, but she knows you know she's lying. And she's getting off on you knowing that she's lying to you.

In fact, she closed them from March 2020 to June 2020.

But then she closed everything down again in November 2020.

She seems to have forgotten about that.

The truth? Whitmer closed schools from March 2020 through April 5. Then, she extended that closure to the rest of the school year into June. Then in the next school year, her Department of Health shut down high schools and colleges again in November 2020.

Remote learning. REMOTE. That means: "Closed."

Jarrett Skorup, communications director for the free-market Mackinac Center for Public Policy in Midland, posted a state health department notice from November 2020 saying that high schools and colleges were closed for in-person learning, while local districts had the option of keeping K-8 schools open.

"So... yeah... her statement here is clearly false," tweeted Mr. Skorup.

And note that while she allowed local K-8 school districts to open, most of the big school districts of course chose to keep their fatass teachers isolated and protected in Boca Raton and Cancun. She did not require them to stay open -- and they closed.

In fact, Whitmer did not recommend that schools return to in-person instruction until March 2021. When she made that announcement, 23% of Michigan schools were fully in person, compared with 47% in Ohio, 54% in Wisconsin, and 76% in Indiana.

Some of the largest school districts in the state offered only virtual instruction for almost an entire academic year. Michigan was 33rd nationally when it came to offering in-person instruction for the 2020-2021 school year.

The schools in Flint and Detroit were among those closed for in-person instruction the longest. Minority students saw the largest drops in test scores, with the percentage of Black third-graders meeting or exceeding math proficiency standards falling by more than one-third.

On the NAEP, Michigan students dropped in every category. Fourth-grade reading fell to a 30-year low. In Detroit, students in the public school district have long scored the worst in the nation in reading and math. Their test scores still dropped sharply during COVID.

Tudor Dixon also reminded voters that not only did Whitmer keep the healthy locked down in their homes, but she seeded the nursing homes, filled with the most at-risk of all at-risk people, with covid:
