DeWine has come under fire from several members of his own party for coronavirus-related lockdown measures.

State Reps. John Becker, Nino Vitale, Candice Keller and Paul Zeltwanger filed 12 articles of impeachment against him yesterday, accusing him of "mismanagement, malfeasance, misfeasance, abuse of power, and other crimes include, but are not limited to, meddling in the conduct of a presidential primary election, arbitrarily closing and placing curfews on certain businesses, while allowing other businesses to remain open."

The militia members accused of plotting to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) due to her lockdown measures also reportedly considered abducting DeWine.
