Welcome to what is the 1097th original profile here at “Fanatical Republican Extremist of the Day”, where we’ll be discussing Matt Maddock, who was first successfully elected to office in the 2018 elections in District 44 of the Michigan House of Representatives. Our profile picture above is Maddock with his wife Meshawn, the current Co-Chair of the Michigan Republican Party at the “Stop the Steal” rally in Washington, D.C. where he helped bus Trump supporters/domestic terrorists and those who fell into both categories to our nation’s Capitol on January 6th, 2021 for the coup attempt the Republican Party was attempting. And yes, Meshawn has also been named as those who attempted to commit fraud who forged documents to pose as fake electors during the count of electoral votes.
The above sedition in the name of inserting Donald Trump as the Republican Party’s autocratic dictator is not the only fascist ideas Maddock has supported, though, because as a legislator, he submitted a bill that would require any “fact-checker” in the press to register with the state and be fined $1,000 if they correct any politician’s lies if they haven’t already been cleared to do so by a state registry. If you remember, there’s a whole First Amendment of the Constitution that allows a freedom of the press, and provided they don’t print any falsehoods that would leave them susceptible to a libel lawsuit, the whole thing reeked of a man at war with the media for daring to ever correct him.
Outside of that stupidity, both Matt Maddock and his wife have been spreading Covid-19 misinformation throughout the pandemic, stating his belief that “Covid is less harmful than the flu.” Maddock also decided to attempt to impeach Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer for reasons that amount to, “took actions to save thousands of lives but personally inconvenienced me”, in late 2021, but there wasn’t enough support to take out the Democratic Governor.
We are hoping that perhaps the people of Maddock’s district realize they have put a very dangerous man in the state legislature and can correct that error in the GOP Primary or general election. Before he and his wife can do any more damage.
