A group of Catholics held a Rosary Rally outside the home of Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer on Sunday, after the Democrat sparked backlash with a Doritos video that critics alleged made mockery of a sacred Christian rite.
The “Rosary Rally for Religious Respect” was organized by CatholicVote.
The rally comes in response to a controversial social media video in which Gov. Whitmer wore a Harris-Walz campaign hat and fed Doritos to a kneeling liberal podcaster named Liz Plank.

The Democratic governor apologized in response to the backlash, insisting the video was not meant to mock people of faith.

“I’ve used my platform to stand up for people’s right to hold and practice their personal religious beliefs,” Whitmer said.
