Breitbart ^ | 02/11/2022 | Trent Baker

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) on Friday criticized conservative media members for “inciting and encouraging people to break the law” with their coverage of the Freedom Convoy.

Whitmer said on CNN’s “New Day” that the Canadian trucker protests in the name of pushing back against coronavirus restrictions were devastating to the U.S. economy because families and businesses rely on them. She warned conservative media that encouraging the protests was “downright dangerous.”

It’s called free speech twit.

You didn’t have a problem with BLM disrupting everything. You make yourself comfortable with those consequences.

Remember, it's about The Narrative.
The DHS released a bulletin naming people who published "mis- dis- and mal-information" as threats and terrorists.
Whitmer's response is simply part of that Narrative. Look for other Democrats to follow her in this.

The United States remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several factors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories, and other forms of mis- dis- and mal-information (MDM) introduced and/or amplified by foreign and domestic threat actors. These threat actors seek to exacerbate societal friction to sow discord and undermine public trust in government institutions to encourage unrest, which could potentially inspire acts of violence.
