LANSING — A group of Lansing Republicans with close ties to the DeVos family have launched a fake Democratic Super PAC called “Priorities for Michigan” to attack former Senate Democratic Leader Gretchen Whitmer in a new series of online ads.

The new dark money group shares a mailing address with the Republican organization “A League of Their Own,” whose website lists former Republican House Speaker Jase Bolger and DeVos family political operative Tony Daunt as “coaches.”

“This is a new low, even for the slimy DeVos family,” said Zack Pohl, Communications Director for the Whitmer campaign. “Republican billionaires like the Koch brothers and Betsy DeVos must really be scared by Gretchen Whitmer to create a fake Democratic super PAC to smear her record with progressive voters. Here’s the truth, as Senate Democratic Leader, Gretchen brought Republicans and Democrats together to expand Medicaid and cover 680,000 more Michiganders, and because of her work, the minimum wage just went up for the fourth year in a row. As governor, Gretchen will focus on getting things done that will actually make a difference in people’s lives right now, like fixing the roads, expanding access to affordable health care and repealing the Snyder Retirement Tax. That’s the kind of progressive leadership we need in Lansing to build a better Michigan for everyone.”

These people have no bottom. I keep telling myself that the end will come to them eventually.
