The Ruskies, China, and even Turkey joined the great western democracies in denouncing it.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan commented on Floyd’s death in a series of tweets. “The racist and fascist approach that led to the death of George Floyd in the US city of Minneapolis as a result of torture has not only deeply saddened all of us, but it has also become one of the most painful manifestations of the unjust order we stand against across the world.”

If you have a Twitter account …
They also turned all of the lights off in and around the WH to prevent it being used as a visual backdrop for the protests. Always about form and never function.
I would like to add one to your list, if I may:
7. Depends
But only for the MAGA that love blacks, so no one showed up.
Oh, so they’ve had considerable practice at this.
I know zero about the mid-west but thought Minn was supposed to be a good place to be, but maybe only if you’re white.
Any thinking person looks with dismay at the violence, of course. We don’t want our cities to descend into ungovernable chaos. But imagine if Trump had consistently expressed and demonstrated a concern for the rights of the citizens guaranteed in the Constitution he took an oath to uphold. Imagine if an evenhanded Justice Department had announced a believable effort to see if Floyd’s rights had been violated. I’m not saying we disagree on what should have been done. But when the people are enraged it’s fair to ask why. There’s only so many times we can watch fellow citizens being murdered in the street and not react. That doesn’t mean you break the window of a coffee shop. There are provocateurs at work here too. But Trump has this coming.
Pretty rich coming from Recep!
Turn out the lights…the party’s over.
Not to whatabout but we saw his own thugs attacking people in the streets of our capital city so fuck him.
That sends a great message, doesn’t it?
The Lincoln Project just put out a great ad on the Southern flag of treason:
I know I am preaching to the choir and more than likely this is in the hopper…
But,w/r/t The Orange Menace siccing Barr on “ANTIFA”, I think that there should be a comprehensive analysis of the disparity between the infiltration that is actually the case and what Team Trump is insinuating.
For the consumption of non-Trumpers ONLY.
My Lord what a fu****n coward. Hide in a bunker while tweeting racism and discord.
Sometimes I can feel how much the healthy parts of America are holding on for this presidency to be over. Sometimes with only their fingertips.
After reading the editorial about the riots being a help to his re election chances I have to say this; a country that uses these events as a reason to re elect trump is a nation that was looking for an excuse to re elect him.
So when they move the President to the bunker because of perceived danger do they leave his (or in the future her) family exposed in the residence?
They’ll lure him out with a bag of hamberders.
…a country that uses these events as a reason to re elect trump is a nation that was looking for an excuse to re elect him.
