Speaker Tate strips Schriver of staff, funds and committee post over ‘racist rhetoric’
A state lawmaker whose boosting of a racist conspiracy theory drew the rebuke of fellow legislators, as well as Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, has been stripped of his office staff, funds and committee assignment.
In a release issued Monday morning, Michigan House Speaker Joe Tate (D-Detroit) said he was taking action against state Rep. Josh Schriver (R-Oxford) for his “sustained campaign of racist rhetoric and hate speech” posted on social media.
“I will not allow the Michigan House of Representatives to be a forum for the proliferation of racist, hateful and bigoted speech,” said Tate in a statement. “Representative Schriver has a history of promoting debunked theories and dangerous rhetoric that jeopardizes the safety of Michigan residents and contributes to a hostile and uncomfortable environment for others. The House of Representatives is the people’s house, and all Michiganders should look upon this body and take pride in how we conduct ourselves. It is also a workplace, and I have a responsibility to make sure the employees of the House feel safe and secure.”
The action follows Schriver’s posting last Tuesday on X of a graphic of the “Great Replacement” theory, which states that a conspiracy is targeting white Americans and Europeans to be “replaced” by non-white populations, often through immigration or interracial relationships.

Tell me you're a racist without... Okay, just tell me you're a racist.
“I’m opposed to racists, race baiters and victim politics,” State Rep. Josh Schriver told The Detroit News. “What I find strange is the agenda to demoralize and reduce the white portion of our population."

GOP lawmaker's 'great replacement' post condemned by colleagues
Democratic lawmakers are condemning a social media post from Republican state Rep. Josh Schriver of Oxford that promoted "the great replacement" theory, a racist ideological belief that there's a coordinated global effort to diminish the influence of White people.
On Tuesday, Schriver shared a post of a graphic that depicted black figurines covering most of a map of the world, with white figures occupying smaller sections of Australia, Canada, northern Europe and the northern United States. The bottom of the graphic read "The great replacement!"
The graphic, initially posted by right-wing pundit Jack Posobiec, was reposted by Schriver with an emoji of a chart showing a downward trend on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.
In a statement Wednesday to The Detroit News, Schriver said he loved "all of God's offspring" and believed "everyone's immense value is rooted in the price Christ paid on the Cross when he died for our sins.
"I'm opposed to racists, race baiters, and victim politics," Schriver said in the statement. "What I find strange is the agenda to demoralize and reduce the white portion of our population. That's not inclusive and Christ is inclusive! I'm glad Tucker Carlson and Jack Posobiec are sharing links so I can continue my research on these issues."
