A shady political group bankrolled by the family of Education Sec. Betsy DeVos helped organize a protest against Michigan's stay-at-home order.

Proud Boys, men with swastika tattoos & others flying Confederate flags showed up. https://www.exposedbycmd.org/2020/04/17/devos-funded-group-organizes-protest-against-michigan-governors-stay-home-order/

Right-wing protest in Lansing against Governor Whitmer’s coronavirus-related restrictions draws Confederate flags, swastikas, and chants of “Lock her up!”

The other group that helped organize the protest is very extreme. It posted alt-right memes and called the idea of white privilege a scam on Facebook. https://www.exposedbycmd.org/2020/04/17/devos-funded-group-organizes-protest-against-michigan-governors-stay-home-order/

As we've seen over and over with the Koch network, a lot of the people that the billionaire elite rightwing donors work with & attract are far-right extremists, some even going full white nationalist. https://readsludge.com/2019/05/30/koch-network-alums-are-going-full-on-white-nationalist/

Two young men with links to Charles Koch-funded academic and political operations were recently outed as members of the white nationalist group Identity Evropa.

Some of these people, and of course the less extreme anti-government/pro-Trump people who also stood very close together, yelling, w/o masks are going to get themselves and others killed.
