LANSING, Mich. – Gov. Gretchen Whitmer sees the shadowy hand of the Michigan Freedom Fund in organizing an Operation Gridlockrally outside the governor’s mansion. The fund is a rightwing Republican group supported financially by the DeVos family, Whitmer said. She noted that Betty DeVos is a sitting member of President Trump’s cabinet as education secretary. Whitmer called it “really inappropriate” for DeVos to be involved. Unsaid was that Whitmer has been touted a possible running mate for Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.
