‘I’m still legally the chair’: Ousted MI GOP leader refuses to stop spending party’s money – By Carl Gibson (AlterNet) / Feb 20, 2024
Even though the Republican National Committee has recognized former Rep. Pete Hoekstra (R-MI) as the rightful head of the Michigan Republican Party, former chair Kristina Karamo is continuing to function as if she is in charge — including spendng its money.
In addition to the RNC, former President Donald Trump has also recognized Hoekstra as the head of the MIGOP, and Hoekstra has been conducting meetings as party chairman.
However, the Detroit News reported Tuesday that Karamo is still swiping the Mitten State GOP’s credit card despite disgruntled Republicans’ 40-5 vote on January 6 of this year to remove her from her position.
