Michigan again has a republican form of government.

Our drag-ass State Supreme Court had to stop dodging the issue.

And, mirabile dictu, a 4-3 majority discovered that an unconstitutional delegation of martial-law-level power passed in response to Detroit's 1943 race riot doesn't allow a governor to indefinitely rule the State by decree.

Poor Gretchen--she'll have to start working with people who don't affirm her infallible judgment every waking moment of the day.

Of course, that also means our GOP-controlled legislature has to corral its own dubious quirks.

[WARNING: Gratuitous misuse of the Lord's name in the song. 

But other than that, it fits. Except for the part where Adams was a genuine intellectual titan and political thinker. 

Whereas Whitmer is....neither.

But she definitely shares Adams' bad judgment, penchant for needless fight picking and unshakable sense of righteousness. She also seems to, like the Adamses, have a happy marriage, so there's that. 

My jerkitude only goes so far.]
