They’re Hiding the Truth on Covid Nursing Homes, So I’m Suing Nessel’s crew had the gall to charge me $3,147.80, cashed my check, and never handed over the documents By Charlie LeDuff @Charlieleduff I’m suing Dana Nessel and Gretchen Whitmer. Again. It’s about nursing homes during Covid. Again. At issue: Back in 2020, Trump’s Justice Department was conducting a civil rights investigation into the treatment and deaths of the elderly people in five states, including Michigan. What—if anything—did Whitmer tell them? What were her people telling each other behind closed Zoom doors? I requested all that information 240 days ago. Their stalling and delaying is not legal. The Freedom of Information Act law says they’ve got 21 days to produce the goods. So I’m suing. Nessel’s office had the gall to charge me $3,147.80 to process that paperwork. So I wrote a personal check. Nessel’s office cashed my check 150 days ago. But still no documents. That’s not legal either. So, again, I’m suing. What are they covering up? Whatever it is, I’ll find it. I beat these boneheads in court before. And I’ll beat them again. It was back in 2021. I wanted the long-term care facilities death data. Turns out, Whitmer’s Michigan death data was as bad as Andrew Cuomo’s New York death data. Probably worse because Michigan didn’t keep count of all the people in all of the facilities they were required to by law. Cuomo stopped mixing the sick with the healthy in New York’s nursing homes after just 40 days because of the public outcry. Whitmer never stopped. The elderly kept getting commingled all through the pandemic. The media, despicable as they are, covered for her. So what did Whitmer tell the Feds back in 2020? What did she know, and when did she know it? Why did Nessel refuse to investigate the state’s response? Lawsuits are expensive. But it’s worth it. These were our parents. I’ll take it to the Supreme Court if that’s what it takes. You have my word.
