From fast breaking news headlines, this Friday, over on the Politico website, they feature an inspiring article about Michigan's Democratic Governor, Gretchen Whitmer. It's a worthy read, if you are not familiar with her.
Governor Whitmer has been navigating not only the Covid-19 crisis in the state of Michigan, but she's got a full plate of other serious issues she is addressing for people who live in Michigan.
Here is but one excerpt from the article:
Quote:

It’s one thing to be 15 months into your first term and suddenly blindsided by a rampaging disease the likes of which no living politician has encountered; to be thrust into worldwide renown by virtue of a beef with the president and a rising body count in your backyard; to know that your every flinch and syllable are being judged by citizens today and history tomorrow.

Bonus item of interest: Joe Biden has publicly stated that Governor Whitmer is on his "Short List" as a VP contender (See, link to article below).
