Facebook gives no explanation for scrubbing "Impeach Whitmer" group from its platform: Brandon Hall, a conservative political consultant in Michigan, created the Facebook group "Impeach Whitmer" to stand in opposition to Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's (D) strict lockdown orders. On Oct. 8 the group was suddenly deleted from Facebook, despite never having been flagged or warned for any of its previous posts made by the roughly 7,000 members belonging to the group. The Facebook group's removal was made just hours before authorities made the first arrest in an alleged plot to kidnap Gov. Whitmer, according to the Washington Times.
