    Mace Says Sharia Runs Michigan. Michigan's Governor Is Gretchen Whitmer.

    On the September 21 episode of her 'Get Maced' podcast, Rep. Nancy Mace told her audience that 'Sharia law is running Michigan,' and she said it inside a sentence accusing other people of 'lying about America.' The claim is false. Michigan runs on the U.S. Constitution and a state constitution, the same as South Carolina. Its governor is Gretchen Whitmer. Fact-checkers have debunked the Michigan-sharia myth since 2015, and Girl Scouts of the USA says on the record that it teaches no religion and welcomes girls of every faith.
