@ewarren

Donald Trump is calling for violence against Black Americans. His advocacy of illegal, state-sponsored killing is horrific. Politicians who refuse to condemn it share responsibility for the consequences.

That is so wrong. We need honest reckoning and reconciliation.

For too long, Black & brown bodies have been profiled, surveilled, policed, lynched, choked, brutalized & murdered at the hands of police officers. We cannot allow these fatal injustices to go unchecked any longer. Today, I’m introducing a Resolution to Condemn Police Brutality.

even if that cop did not know this—even tho he prolly does/should, George Floyd TOLD HIM THAT HE COULD. NOT. BREATHE. it’s a different level of inhuman to CONTINUE TO KNEEL ON HIM FOR 9 MINS. 3rd degree? cut the bs #RAISETHEDEGREE

Racism is not something that you are born with, it’s something that is taught. Children only want to be loved and it doesn’t matter what color you are. Let them grow up in a world of love, kindness and unity. Together we could change things. #OneVoice1

.@VanJones68 is right. Over 20% of Hillary supporters think Blacks are less intelligent than whites. About 30% say we’re more violent and more criminal. “Trump is worse” is a weak balm for those of us on the receiving end of this racism. twitter.com/hanaquanaut/st…

@kenklippenstein
Powerful. This is how #GeorgeFloyd’s friends, at a news conference in Minneapolis City Hall, reacted to the arrest of Derek Chauvin: “We are not satisfied. All of them [officers] are complicit in his murder and they all need to be held accountable.”

@sahouraxo
My God... this is last line from the criminal complaint against Derek Chauvin (the defendant) is disturbing. “The defendant had his knee on Mr. Floyd’s neck for 8 minutes and 46 seconds in total. Two minutes and 53 seconds of this was after Mr. Floyd was non-responsive.”

Minneapolis burns while our officials fiddle around. It’s a travesty of justice that police officers: Derek Chauvin Thomas Lane Tou Thao J. Alexander Kueng have still not been arrested for the murder of George Floyd. Arrest them immediately.

Officer Derek Chauvin had 18 prior complaints filed against him w/ the Minneapolis Police Dept. of Internal Affairs. It’s unclear what the complaints were for—but only 2 were closed “w/ discipline” (a letter of reprimand). Now he’s under arrest in the death of #georgefloyd #7news

@AmakaUbakaTV
George Floyd and Derek Chauvin, identified by local media as the officer who was videotaped kneeling on Floyd’s neck for minutes shortly before his death, worked at the same nightclub—but may not have known each other, the club’s owner says on.forbes.com/6015GEbGf

BREAKING: Andrea Jenkins, Minneapolis City Council Vice President says George Floyd and Officer Derek Chauvin both worked at a restaurant near the Third Precinct as bouncers together for 17 years: "They were coworkers for a very long time."

@KristenClarkeJD
Black leaders in Minnesota and friends of George Floyd are at a press conference at Minneapolis City Hall. They just found out that Derek Chauvin was arrested. This is their response:

@JoshuaPotash
so you're telling me that derek chauvin was charged with 3rd degree murder, which is for when it was NOT commit with the intention of death... george floyd was YELLING "i can't breathe" and he continued to kneel on him, he did that shit on purpose there's no excuse

@ngelwy
According to the complaint, officers checked for #GeorgeFloyd's pulse and could not find one. Chauvin kept his knee on Floyd's neck for almost two minutes after that minnesotareformer.com/2020/05/29/for…

@Lussenpop
FAMILY STATEMENT: The family of #GeorgeFloyd and I released the following statement in response to the arrest of Derek Chauvin, the officer videoed kneeling on George Floyd’s neck. #JusticeForFloyd #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd

@AttorneyCrump
The owner of a Minneapolis nightclub where Derek Chauvin worked security tells CNN that Chauvin acted more aggressively when the club had urban nights with predominantly black customers.

@keithboykin
NEW: Family of George Floyd: “[Arrest of] Derek Chauvin for the brutal killing of George Floyd is a welcome but overdue step on the road to justice. We expected a first-degree murder charge. We want a first-degree murder charge. And we want to see the other officers arrested.

@NBCNews
Derek Chauvin, former Minneapolis police officer, has been charged with 3rd-degree murder and manslaughter in the killing of George Floyd.

@UberFacts
At 8:25, about 5 minutes after Chauvin knelt on Floyd's neck, the officer said it again. Another officer checked Floyd's wrist for a pulse and said "I couldn't find one." Chauvin kept his knee on Floyd's neck for two minutes after that.

@obarcala
@kar_nels @webster This is probably Alex Jones shit but I think Derek Chauvin is part of a dirty cop squad operating out of Minneapolis, with fellow dirty cops like Jacob Pederson (a cop filmed smashing the windows at the auto store). George Floyd was involved and this is why it all kicked off

@TellThemImNotI1
Derek Chauvin has been charged with 3rd degree murder for what he did to George Floyd. Here's some clarification on the differences between the degree. I think with after EVERYTHING that has been exposed, we all KNOW which degree applies!! #RaiseTheDegreee #BlackLivesMatters

@keepstrugglin_
It wasn’t an accident it was murder. Derek Chauvin had his knee on George’s neck for 8 mins and 46 secs. 2 mins of this were after George was unresponsive. This was cold blooded murder, he knew what he was doing. Reply with #RAISETHEDEGREE

‘The one thing that gave me comfort was that it happened on live TV’ — CNN reporter @OmarJimenez speaks about being arrested in Minneapolis

@nowthisnews
I beat up @CNN as much as anyone, but @OmarJimenez was nothing but polite and compliant here. There was no reason for him to be arrested. For some bizarre reason, MN cops continue to do things that are killing them optically, making this all worse.

@johncardillo
This just happened: @CNN reporter @OmarJimenez was arrested while covering #Minneapolis unrest.

@nycjim
Omg. @OmarJimenez, a @CNN reporter, was just placed in handcuffs and arrested on LIVE television while reporting on the protests. He is a Black man. Folks, a Black @CNN reporter has beeen arrested for doing his job and 4 Minnesota Police who murdered #GeorgeFloyd are free.
