Just a reminder that @freep and @detroitnews published a number of stories about whether the dress @GovWhitmer wore for her State of the State address was appropriate but so far no articles about whether it’s ok for Sen. Dale Zorn to wear a confederate flag mask during session.

I know I am still living in some alternate fantasy world where a public official wearing a symbol representing the ownership of an entire race of people by another race of people would be denounced by his party leadership and drummed out of office, but the silence is deafening.

Thanks to @DNBethLeBlanc for her coverage. I recognize the tireless efforts of the underpaid and overworked journalists in this state. They are needed now more than ever and I applaud those who continue to work to hold elected leaders-myself included-accountable.
