LANSING, Mich. (AP) - The leader of Michigan's Republican Party referred to Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and two other top Democratic elected woman as "witches" and joked about assassination when asked how to remove two GOP congressman who voted to impeach former President Donald Trump.

 

Ron Weiser's statements Thursday during a local Republican meeting, which are on video, were reported by The Detroit News on Friday.

 

A crowd member asked how to unseat Reps. Fred Upton and Peter Meijer. Weiser said the party was focused on defeating "three witches" - a misogynistic reference to Whitmer, state Attorney General Dana Nessel and Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, who are up for reelection in 2022.

 

Someone in the crowd asked Weiser about "witches in our own party."

 

He said: "Ma'am, other than assassination, I have no other way other than voting out. OK? You people have to go out there and support their opponents. You have to do what you need to get out the vote in those areas. That's how you beat people."

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Joe Biden on Friday nominated a former senior Justice Department official from the administration of President Barack Obama to head the U.S. Marshal Service.

 

The White House said Biden was nominating Ronald Davis, a former California police chief and Justice Department official, to serve as Marshal Service director.

 

The Marshal Service acts as the enforcement arm of U.S. federal courts. Its responsibilities include apprehending federal fugitives, protecting federal judges and witnesses, transporting federal prisoners and enforcing court and law enforcement orders related to civil disturbances and acts of terrorism.

 

Davis served in the Obama administration as director of the Justice Department’s Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), whose mission is to build trust and mutual respect between police and communities, according to the department’s website.

 

Subsequently, Obama named Davis to serve as executive director of a Presidential task force on 21st Century Policing.

 

Before joining Obama’s Justice Department, Davis had served for over eight years as police chief of East Palo Alto, California and for 20 years as a member of the Oakland, California police department.
