'It was hate, plain and simple': Gov. Whitmer addresses synagogue attack during West Bloomfield visit
“This is not a political moment. This is not a political debate. This is targeting babies who are Jewish. That's anti-Semitism at its absolute worst," Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said of an attack at a West Bloomfield synagogue.
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, U.S. Sen. Elissa Slotkin, among those giving remarks Friday after the attack at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield.
"This isn't a debate, this is targeting babies that are Jewish," said Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.
A suspect rammed a vehicle rammed into Temple Israel in an incident being investigated as a targeted attack on the Jewish community.
Authorities say an armed suspect is dead after he rammed a vehicle into Temple Israel in West Bloomfield Township on Thursday afternoon, which led to security guards engaging the suspect in gunfire.
Whitmer's focus has shifted definitively outside of Michigan as she leans in harder to her national brand, her job as a social media influencer and a potential 2028 presidential contender.
