Whitmer ignores residents, allows CCP-tied EV company backed by Dems to buy up land
August 2, 2023 | Kevin Haggerty As Chinese-backed companies continued gobbling up American land like a game of military base Monopoly, constituent concern went by the wayside for Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D).
The lockdown queen of Covidstan, somehow reelected in Nov. 2022, has yet to quit sticking it to residents of the Great Lake State. That was readily apparent Tuesday when the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) linked electric vehicle battery company Gotion High-Tech announced their purchase of 270 acres of land with an added bonus of millions in taxpayer dollars.
Known as Project Elephant, Gotion’s vice president of North American operations Chuck Thelen released a statement Tuesday announcing the acquisition of land in Green Charter Township, Michigan some 100 miles from the nation’s largest U.S. National Guard training facility.
“Completion of the land acquisition process is a step forward for Gotion Inc. and the region as a whole,” Thelen said of the trimmed-down purchase. “We’ve listened to the concerns of local residents and decided not to purchase two large parcels of land zones for agriculture use at this time. Gotion Inc. will continue to work with members of the community, and our municipal, county and state partners, throughout this entire process.”
