On July 21, 2024, about a dozen masked white supremacists marched through downtown Howell, chanting "Heil Hitler" and carrying signs with messages such as "White Lives Matter" and "End the War on White Children". They began their demonstration on the lawn of the Livingston County courthouse, where, in 1994, members of the community symbolically scrubbed the steps following a Klan rally. Several miles east of Howell at the Latson Road/I-96 overpass in Genoa Township, Michigan, pictures posted to a community Facebook group showed demonstrators hanging Klan and Nazi flags over the side of the overpass. One of the photos showed them with a Donald Trump flag, while the Livingston Post uploaded a video made by a passerby in which one of the protestors is heard saying, "We love Hitler. We love Trump." On July 28, 2024, one week after the white supremacist march, at an anti-white supremacist counterprotest in downtown Howell, residents cleansed the sidewalk to symbolically wash away the racism. On August 20, 2024, Donald Trump visited Howell for a campaign speech.
