UPDATE Feb 26 7:00pm: Bigger Truth was just informed by an attorney who is active within MIGOP of additional information that was added to this story.

MICHIGAN - On the eve of a court hearing that could result in the legal end of Kristina Karamo's ability to continue to call herself Chair of the Michigan Republican Party (MIGOP), a series of internal documents was released that signal her intention to restructure MIGOP to make it into an authoritarian dictatorship that it claims would be above any law or court in the land.

Andy Sebolt was the policy chair under the Karamo administration until November 2023. He told Bigger Truth that Karamo first approached him to discuss major changes to the bylaws with James Copas and General Counsel Dan Hartman in May or June of 2023. He had been involved in several discussions about these changes, often referred to as a "party constitution," during his tenure, but was never allowed to review a draft.

Sebolt was removed from his position without cause after he had repeatedly challenged the Karamo administration to provide more accountability to the bylaws and transparency.

This "Michigan Republican Party Constitution," which is longer and infinitely more convoluted than the US Constitution, opens with a patriotic image of the 1776 flag and the US Constitution followed by a preamble with fine print footnotes.

The preamble with footnotes declares that the new document was written to "form a more perfect Michigan Republican Party" and that it will "ensure party tranquility" by forming "a functional and qualified conflict resolution committee to manage all MIGOP internal disputes." Later, in Section 8.1.1, the document says, "The conflict resolution committee is given the authority to determine membership." Section 8.1.6 says that any member may refer another member to the committee for removal.

In essence, this constitution will "ensure party tranquility" by eliminating all dissenting voices.
