Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, a Democrat, is facing backlash after mocking the Catholic faith in a recent TikTok video.

In the video, which was posted by TikTok influencer Liz Plank (@feministabulous,) Whitmer can be seen wearing a camouflage Harris-Walz hat in what appears to be a mockery of the Catholic faith.

Whitmer can be seen placing a Durito in the influencer’s mouth, who is on her knees with her hands folded as if to receive the Eucharist. The camera then pans to the governor, who is smirking at the camera.

“If he won’t, Gretchen Whitmer will,” a caption under the Instagram video post reads. “Chips aren’t just delicious, the CHIPS Act is a game-changer for U.S. tech and manufacturing, boosting domestic production of semiconductors to reduce reliance on foreign suppliers! Donald Trump would put that at risk.”

The video soon went viral on social media after tens of thousands of Catholics expressed outrage over the apparent mockery.

“Let’s be clear what’s happening in this video,” former Trump advisor Tim Murtaugh wrote in an X post. “Gov. Whitmer of Michigan is pretending to give communion to a leftist podcaster on her knees, using a Dorito as the Eucharist while wearing a Harris-Walz hat. Do they want ZERO Catholic votes for Harris?”

“How else can this be interpreted other than mockery of Catholics and the sacrament of Holy Communion, not to mention the distasteful pornographic innuendo? Gretchen Whitmer is only the latest example of the gross anti-Catholic bigotry festering inside the Democratic Party,” said Catholic Vote.

Whitmer later issued an apology and claimed she did not mean any offense.

“Over 25 years in public service, I would never do something to denigrate someone’s faith,” the statement said. “I’ve used my platform to stand up for people’s right to hold and practice their personal religious beliefs. My team has spoken to the Michigan Catholic Conference. What was supposed to be a video about the importance of the CHIPS Act to Michigan jobs, has been construed as something it was never intended to be, and I apologize for that.”
