Two sources say a physical skirmish briefly broke out at the Michigan GOP state committee meeting this afternoon.

Still trying to get more information.


If you have access to the police scanner traffic in Clare, might be worth turning on.

Home of the old Purple Gang. They were more civil than todays RePubs. They are fighting each other more than us.
Local RePubs are boycotting the State party shindig in town.
