	Let's go.
	You are not about to touch me!
	Let's go!
	You are not allowed to touch me!
	You better lick out the circus.
	Hey!
	Hey, that is unnecessary!
	Hey!
	That's not necessary, you guys.
	Thank you.

	As you all are probably aware by now, the state of Michigan has been at the center of controversy over the last few weeks after their democratic governor Gretchen Whitmer turned into a dictator and banned things that really had no impact on public safety.
	Unsurprisingly, the governor's actions cause an uproar from concerned residents, and there have been countless protests in front of the Michigan State House.
	One such protest took place just a few days ago and resulted in the forceful removal of three peaceful demonstrators from the House of Representatives.
	You are not allowed to touch her.
	You are not allowed to touch her.
	What you are about to witness is what happens to women in America when they disagree with a democratic governor.
	This footage is so insane and is a small glimpse of what's in store for the rest of our country if we let the Democrats take over.

	On Wednesday, April 29th, my friend Shelly and two others visited the State House to hold their elected officials accountable.
	And for some odd reason, it wasn't an issue for state senators to assemble there, but it was an issue for Shelly and her friends to be there.
	So we're inside the Michigan Senate chambers.
	As you can see, the representatives that we are protesting outside are now um gathering on the Senate floor.
	After sitting in the Senate chamber and watching their elected officials from above, they ventured over to the House of Representatives to do the same.
	But for whatever reason, even though it wasn't an issue for them to sit in the Senate chambers just a few minutes before, now it was suddenly a problem for them to sit in an empty House of Representatives.
	Watch.
	Well you're close.
	Yep, we're close, yeah.
	We got seating restrictions.
	We don't have people.
	You can go down to speakers and go to the speech speaker's library.
	Wait, but there's there's absolutely nobody in here.
	Correct, correct.
	So yeah, so does does that sound appropriate?
	There's no seating in here, but there's nobody in here.
	Yes.
	It does.
	It's on documentary.
	We don't make the rules.
	What's up?
	They won't let us in here.
	That's illegal.
	It is illegal.
	That's illegal.
	This is our public building.
	This is our house, so please call the cops.
	They are uh currently calling security on us.
	So we are six feet apart.
	We are we are six feet apart.
	And then after they all sat down six feet apart, here's what happened next.
	Let's go.
	No, you're not capable of police.
	There is nobody here.
	Let's go.
	You are not allowed to touch me!
	Let's go!
	You are not allowed to touch me!
	You are not allowed to touch them!
	You are not killed!
	You better lick out the circus.
	Hey!
	Hey!
	Hey, that is unnecessary!
	That is unnecessary!
	I have a friend!
	Hey, hey, hey.
	That's not necessary, you guys!
	Since Shelley Gregory has been a friend of mine for a few years, I wanted to let her tell her story directly to you guys.
	Shelly, can you tell us what happened inside the State House on Wednesday and why you weren't allowed in the House chambers?
	So we were at the Capitol.
	Um we were we were protesting as the uh senators were walking in.
	Um and as House representatives were walking in.
	Um and then Wendy's like, hey, um, I want to go up there and and start recording the senators doing.
	I was like, alright, cool.
	So we went up there, um, and we started recording.
	Uh, we had no issues when we walked in the Senate.
	They said you have a First Amendment right to be here, open meeting acts apply, um, just try to still do your social distancing and whatnot.
	And we're like, okay, cool, no problem.
	So we went from the Senate gallery, uh and you go around the little half circle thing to the other side, and that's where the house convenes.
	And so we walked in there, we opened the door, and there was a guy in a right coat, and he said the gallery's closed, it's full.
	And there was literally one other person up there, and then I was about to sit down, that's when this this big dude came in, and he grabs Wendy by the arm, and then you can see me from Audra's viewpoint going, Hey, you can't grab her, you can't grab her, that's not okay.
	Uh, you know, all sorts of stuff.
	And then uh a guy came from behind and grabbed her arms, and as I tried to go to to turn, the guy let go of Wendy, grabbed my arm, and then you see me get yanked off of uh Audra's camera.
	But as I was being dragged off, there was another guy who grabbed my cell phone out of my hand, and you can see right before it cuts off because he hit the power button and it turned off.
	Um he grabs my phone and he threw it into the wall.
	And then the the guy that had me by my collar, you can see me basically kind of get slammed into the door, and then literally I'm tossed out of the door.
	Wendy was a domestic violence survivor, and it kind of messed with her emotionally, sent her into a panic attack.
	Right.
	And and I mean, you could hear her in my live stream.
	Somebody's like, who's crying?
	And I'm I didn't want to show them Wendy.
	Um, because you know, that was like that's I didn't feel like it was my place, but I explained to them, I said, you know, she just got viciously attacked worse than me and Audra did.
	Um, you know, I would be upset too.
	And they refused to call her an ambulance.
	She actually had to go uh down the flight of stairs and call an ambulance on the phone.
	What do you think they were trying to accomplish by removing you from a totally empty room?
	What what was the point of removing you guys?
	I don't even know.
	Um they didn't have a point.
	Um I do know that well, people were like, Well, why weren't they placed handcuffs and arrested?
	Uh, because the Michigan State Police even knew that they were in the wrong.
	Um, you know, and that's why we weren't hauled off because I literally, you could see on the live stream, I asked the cop, I said, Well, just I'm gonna I'm gonna talk to you normally.
	I said, if I grabbed you by your collar and I dragged you around, what would you do to me?
	He didn't answer, but I'm like, you would put me in handcuffs, right?
	And you would haul me off to jail, right?
	You can kind of tell by his facial expressions, like, oh, you know, she's right.
	So they didn't mess with us, and actually, when we were came back the next day, um they all know me by name now.
	Um, and they're actually really, really nice people, the state police.
	That's probably like probably the only cops I actually really like.
	Um they're they've always been respectful of everything.
	Uh they never cause a problem with us at all.
	So it's just I think it's just ridiculous.
	I think the irony of the whole thing is that they wore red coats and they're suppressing the freedom of the press.
	So I was like, irony at its finest.
	So, real quick, did you ever figure out if those guys in the red coats were actually Capitol Police?
	They are considered the Capitol Police.
	Um, they're technically called sergeant of arms.
	Um they're basically essentially run a cops that are deputized.
	So they still had no jurisdiction to grab us like that.
	You said in your live stream that you went to press charges against the men that dragged you out of the house.
	Are you still doing that?
	Do you have any plans for that?
	Yes.
	Um, we all do.
	What do you want people who watch this video to take away from your experience at the State House?
	So I want them to know that there are things that happen behind closed doors, and that they do there are things that they don't want you to see.
	And some of these Republicans are just Not Republicans.
	Um, you know, and I've been calling them out and calling them out, and I've been pushing them every single day this week to do the right thing.
	They finally did today.
	I got introduced to a lady.
	Um, she she's like, I can't see my 80-year-old mother because Whitmer won't let me see her.
	And she goes, but I saw that video.
	Me and my mom saw that video, and that's the reason why I'm here is because of what happened to you.
	And I heard that over and over and over again.
	We're only here because of what happened to you.
	Um, and Wendy and Audra.
	Uh so it was amazing to see that people saw that video and they used that to wow, you know, it's really getting bad.
	Um because nobody seemed to believe us before, you know.
	They people say, Well, you know, she's she's easing restrictions, it's not that bad.
	Well, no, it was really, really bad here.
	It was nice to see people that saw that and they shook my hand, they gave me hugs, they didn't care.
	They were like, We are so proud of you.
	And it was it was pretty awesome.
	So, well, thank you for talking to us and sharing your story, and we certainly wish you the best of luck.
	Keep us updated on pressing those charges.
	Oh, definitely, definitely.
	So that's Shelly's story about what happened that day.
	And whether you agree with the shutdown orders or not, I think we can probably all agree that this kind of force was totally unnecessary, especially given the fact that they were allowed to be in the building and allowed to sit in the Senate chamber.
	But for some reason, it was the end of the world for them to sit in an empty house of representatives.
	This just goes to show that even in times of crisis, truly sick people like the governor of Michigan will abuse their power, and instead of actually helping the people hurting the most, the state of Michigan is literally dragging their residents by the arms and legs.
	While red states have actually valued the input of their voters, the blue state of Michigan seemingly forgot that they are representatives and not tyrants.
	And this is just a small glimpse of what's in store for the rest of the country, unless we re elect Donald Trump as president of the United States this November.
