Here’s the Left of Lansing Friday Short for June 21, 2024.
MAGA Republican state Representative Neil Friske of Charlevoix got arrested this week for allegedly chasing a worker at the Deja Vu strip club in Lansing with a gun.
No formal charges have been levied yet, but police are requesting three felony charges against Friske, including sexual assault, assault, and a weapons-related offense.
Friske is now part of the MAGA crime wave that’s spreading throughout Michigan, and the United States. But it’s also no surprise how Friske allegedly turned to violence against a female worker since he’s shown nothing but contempt for women in his political career.
But make no mistake: resorting to violence is always the MAGA way.
