Plot to kidnap Governor Whitmer

[Lowell]

These stupid chumps were going to kidnap her at the Mackinac Island Governor's Mansion. What were they going to do... make a get-away in a horse and buggy to the nearest boat?

Correction needed. She has her own private 'up north' residence somewhere in the Grand Traverse region and this was the target. It made me wonder why she was not using the Mackinac Island Governor's residence. I'm guessing she likes her place better and politically it probably looks better to not be on the tax-payer's dime. There is still the expense of securing her private residence, the cost of which just went up.

They stupidly showed her cottage on Round Lake this morning on the news. It's not what I would call a mansion, but something either she or her husband owned before they married and is probably a comfortable place for their blended family to be together. Also, if she had been using the Mackinac Island place during Covid it would have been just another thing for the anti maskers to bitch about.
