Hundreds of people protested against a Chinese-owned electric vehicle battery plant being constructed in northern Michigan due to concerns about national security.
"How many abuses have we seen over the years from China? And to think that they will set up a battery factory in our state and they will just play by the rules? That makes no sense whatsoever," Michigan Republican chair Kristina Karamo said at the protest Saturday, NewsNation reported.
The company, Gotion, plans on building the plant 100 miles from Camp Grayling, where the Taiwanese military is being trained by the Michigan National Guard.

Unbelievable!
Just burn it... with the Chinese buyers inside.
Discourage Maoist-USA incursions.
Add the McConnells of the GOPe to your list please.
“being constructed”...this is a job for Antifa
I bet the reason they’re protesting is because the UAW told them to, because the plant probably isn’t union.
Michigan Republican chair Kristina Karamo led the protest.
Tudor Dixon was also there.
Karamo is our new State Chair…….she’s a spit fire.
UAW had nothing to do with this protest.
“...Kristina Karamo...”
She is a Warrior!
Will Michigan have a far-left Governor soon?
I heard it will be male from a nearby state...
“Just burn it... with the Chinese buyers inside.”
Wouldn’t be hard. Just throw a little salt water inside and it’ll trigger the blaze.
“I bet the reason they’re protesting is because the UAW told them to, because the plant probably isn’t union.”
That’s likely the bottom line, but why bring it up when you can instead bash China and have the same effect.
What a bunch of morons. China is the only country that can make the batteries. Have you watched how cobalt is mined. OSHA and the EPA would never allow this to happen in America
A lot of Chinese owed land is located in close proximity to military and strategic locations.
Karamo knows how to battle. thank God for her.
—”China is the only country that can make the batteries.”
A fact that comes into better focus every day.
And CATL produces about one-third of ALL EV batteries worldwide.
You cannot mine here.
You cannot process that stuff here.
You cannot manufacture that here.
But you can be unemployed here.
—”A lot of Chinese owed land is located in close proximity to military and strategic locations.”
What areas would NOT be near military and strategic locations?
And still suitable for the intended purpose.
Manufacturing needs transportation and utility infrastructure
, farming needs fields...
Farm and ranch acreage in Florida is being purchased by foreign entities left and right from families who have owned it for years but the latest generations haven’t any taste for hard work anymore. They just want the dollars to play at lavish lifestyles. Unholy alliances abound. With DeSantis not giving a damn. 2024 election. Yeah. Right.
Northern Michigan should become a part of Wisconsin and thereby save the cheesehead state. Drove through there 20 years ago. A lot of pro life billboards.
Do you take everything at face value?
Was I suppose to misinterpret your words?
I do take what people say as something that they mean.
