With all the practice she has been getting Michigan Gov Gretchen Whitmer should be a good loser by now. In her latest loss, the Michigan Supreme Court just handed her a 7 to 0 loss with celebrity barber Karl Manke. The 77 year old Manke gained his latest win in a unanimous decision. The state must reinstate his barber’s license and get the heck off from his back. He has kept his shop open despite threats from Whitmer and Attorney General Dana Nessel.
A Great Lakes News EXCLUSIVE- The Michigan Supreme Court rules unanimously in favor of Shiawassee County barber Karl Manke. Manke’s attorney, David Kallman, called it the “biggest, most lopsided victory of his career.” This court ruling shoots down Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and Attorney General Dana Nessel’s attempt to fine Manke and pull his license after he started to cut hair before lifting certain executive orders.
According to Great Lakes News, Manke’s attorney, David Kallman, called it the “biggest, most lopsided victory of his career.”
Whitmer and Nessel fined Manke and stripped him of his license after he repeatedly refused to close his business in defiance of Whitmer’s executive orders.
A Michigan Court of Appeals upheld that Manke’s license suspension was valid, but the Supreme Court decision reversed that.
Manke was defiant after the Appeals Court ruling and told WILX, “I’m still open, still working until they cut my hands off.”
Breitbart News caught up with Manke during the recent “Operation Haircut” protest.
“This is an oppressive move on this governor’s part,” Manke said, observing that it “reflects almost a police state.”
“I refuse to stand down on this,” he said.
“I wasn’t this rock star three weeks ago,” Manke told Breitbart News, but Whitmer made him one.
He thanked God for the development.
“I’m still standing up. I still have that courage,” Manke said.
