As noted by the New York Post, “a brilliant new crowdfunded documentary, “The Fall of Minneapolis,” aims to remedy our collective amnesia about the events of May 25, 2020 — a time when the country was already half-mad from the ravages of COVID-19 and forced lockdowns, and when Democratic Party operatives, including candidates Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, seized on the “Defund the police” movement, in order to bring down President Donald Trump.”
The film is based on Liz Collin’s Amazon bestseller, “They’re Lying: The Media, The Left, and The Death of George Floyd,” which exposes the holes in the prevailing narrative surrounding George Floyd’s death, the trial of Derek Chauvin, and the fallout the city of Minneapolis has suffered ever since (more). Here is the full video documentary:
[…] Collin draws on new evidence unveiled last month in a sexual harassment lawsuit, filed by former Hennepin County prosecutor Amy Sweasy, against then-County Attorney Mike Freeman.
Sweasy’s complaint details a revolt in the Hennepin County Attorney’s Office over the decision to charge Chauvin’s fellow officers Tou Thao, Alexander Kueng and Thomas Lane with aiding and abetting second-degree murder. Lane and Kueng, who is black, were fresh out of the academy.
Sweasy and three other prosecutors refused to work on the case because it “violated professional and ethical rules.”
In sworn testimony, prosecutors told of the “insane … extreme premium pressure” they were under to throw the book at Chauvin and charge the other cops because “the city was burning down.”
One said that Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison “taking over the Chauvin cases was difficult particularly when we had a governor who kind of threw us under the bus.”
The original autopsy report by Hennepin County Medical Examiner Dr. Andrew Baker the day after Floyd died found there was “no physical evidence suggesting that Mr. Floyd died of asphyxiation.
“Mr. Floyd did not exhibit signs of petechiae, damage to his airways or thyroid, brain bleeding, bone injuries, or internal bruising.”
Sweasy claims that Baker also told her that day that “there were no medical findings that showed any injury to the vital structures of Mr. Floyd’s neck. There were no medical indications of asphyxia or strangulation.”
On May 31, 2020, Sweasy said Baker shared the results of toxicology tests with prosecutors, which showed that Floyd, 46, had a “fatal level of fentanyl” in his blood, along with methamphetamine.
Floyd also had COVID and severe “arteriosclerotic heart disease,” with one artery 75% obstructed, and “hypertensive heart disease.”
But Ben Crump, the ambulance-chasing attorney who represented the Floyd family and secured them a $27 million payout from the Minneapolis City Council, told the media: “George Floyd was a healthy young man.” (more)
Once you see the strings on the grievance marionettes, you can never watch the pantomime without seeing them; thus the playbook was transparent. Team Black Lives Matter (BLM) and Team AME Church aligned, exactly as we expected.
June 3, 2020, the covid pandemic was suspended so that assemblies and parades could take place. Then at 5:00pm former President Barack Obama delivered remarks about race and social justice during a virtual town-hall sponsored by his “my brother’s keeper” initiative. Simultaneous to that announcement, George Floyd family attorney, Benjamin Crump, delivered remarks from Minneapolis about healing, race and social justice. To assist the sympathetic narrative Ben Crump introduced George Floyd’s son, Quincy Mason.
Everything within the strategy was coordinated and planned carefully. The script is how the political value is maximized. In the larger background the goal is activism based on race for 2020 to avoid the problem that was encountered in 2016. Joe Biden, and the DNC apparatus writ large, were the intended beneficiaries.
The HISTORY – The Biden strategy is heavily scripted and not organic. From the moment representative James Clyburn aligned his network with Barack Obama’s Chicago machine there was a strategy at work.
Clyburn uses the old-fashioned racial playbook through the AME church network. The AME network includes Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. Meanwhile Obama historically used the modern race-based network: the Nation of Islam and New Black Panther Party together with Black Lives Matter. The NoI, NBPP and BLM were allied with DNC Chairman Tom Perez.
Tom Perez was the head of the DOJ Civil Rights Division… which is not coincidental because the election of 2020 was the second time both networks have merged upon, and attempted to activate, the Black Lives Matter crowd. The first time they merged was in Orlando and Miami during the 2012 “Justice for Trayvon” movement.
Black Lives Matter came out of the organization known as “The Dream Defenders”. The defenders were the younger generational version of the civil rights AME network.
In 2012/2013 President Obama and Tom Perez were able to blend the Dream Defenders into an alignment with Farrakhan, the Nation of Islam, and the New Black Panther Party.
As an outcome of a more bitter ideology, the Dream Defenders became more antagonistic and combative when they launched the rebranded version, ‘Black Lives Matter’.
The newly blended Black Lives Matter network had their first heavy visibility with the “Justice for Mike Brown” movement that destroyed Ferguson, Missouri.
After the Mike Brown pretense collapsed the BLM group moved to Baltimore to exploit the false narrative that surrounded the death of Freddie Gray.
Baltimore was then set ablaze with the leadership of Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake who famously said it was important to give the riot crowd “space to destroy.”
While BLM was fulfilling their role as on-the-street activists, the parents of Trayvon Martin and Mike Brown were making financial trips through the AME church network.
AME holds the faith-based role while advancing an older and more traditional generational approach toward racial grievance. The BLM message targets a younger generation with guilt and influence to break windows and riots on behalf of ‘social justice’. To achieve their common goal each group agreed to, or should I say: ‘learned to‘, stay in their lane.
When Jesse Jackson and/or Al Sharpton made independent moves toward the younger BLM activists they were ridiculed and dispatched. Lessons were learned. The older race hustlers now stick to the AME crowd where there is a generational respect.
♦SLIGHTED – Despite Barack Obama leaning heavily on the AME network in ’07/’08, by the time you get to ’12/’13, without re-election needs, the AME was less valued. The open preference for Obama toward the BLM team was visible. After reelection in 2012 team Obama shifted toward expanding political influence through the Latino community.
Tom Perez and President Obama sought to assemble another race-based coalition with hopes they could merge Latinos (La Raza) with BLM. However, all of this focus on BLM and the “dreamers” created a problem. Without maintenance of the social network the AME connection to the Obama-controlled DNC started to fray.
Obama’s focus on a youth movement meant Democrats were taking AME support for granted. Worse yet, the older AME activists gained nothing from the modern Obama coalition; ‘gaining nothing’ means financial benefits were diminished.
Without their traditional/customary indulgence fees the national AME leadership network, the racial patriarchs of the democrat party, were not happy.
The financial disappointment shows up in many visible ways throughout 2015 and 2016, but the most visible way was in September 2016 during the all black Baptist Convention in Kansas City Missouri. (see here)
There were 25,000 participants at the KC Convention and Hillary Clinton was scheduled to deliver the keynote address. When it came time for her speech only around ten percent of the general session audience showed up.
It was the first visible sign the AME network leadership was not at all happy with the modern DNC party apparatus as constructed by the new Obama coalition.
The AME network felt slighted and they literally left Clinton with tens-of-thousands of empty seats at the convention. CTH noticed but the media mostly ignored. Those of you around at the time will remember the CTH position after this convention optic was the 2016 election looked solid for Donald Trump.
LESSON LEARNED – Fast forward to just before Super Tuesday 2020. Bernie Sanders has momentum and is about to become unstoppable. Bernie was a threat to remove DNC leadership power the same way Trump removed RNC party power in 2016.
Party power is money, billions from the big club at stake. Worse still the previous weaponization activity of the Obama administration was likely to surface if 2020 empowered another 4 years for Donald Trump. Now we see why it was critical for Team Obama (BLM) and the AME team to unite quickly that Super-Tuesday weekend, which is exactly what they did.
While James Clyburn quickly notified the AME network, former President Barack Obama activated his control over the DNC network; and signaled to all other primary candidates they needed to drop out in a designed sequence. The DNC Club made offers they could not refuse. Remember, club rules and no one dare defy the movement Teh One represents.
James Clyburn delivered on his end (AME), and Obama delivered on his (DNC/BLM). The rest was history. However, within that history is also a realization that all the alignment means nothing if they didn’t successfully activate the network.
That unified activation is exactly what was happening in the summer of 2020.
The BLM team was reactivated back onto the streets to create the Alinsky inspired chaos. Meanwhile the AME team openly embraced Joe and push heavily for his candidacy. As a result, the optics of Joe Biden taking a knee were heavily scripted, carefully planned and ironically very appropriate.
The media narrative became “everyone must take a knee.”
Note: the DNC network always use three-word phrases: “Hope and Change”, “Take A Knee” etc.
Without the AME network Joe Biden didn’t stand a chance. Why? Because it is the AME network that controls all the urban voting centers and tabulation systems. For all intents and purposes in 2020 it was James Clyburn calling all the shots. Clyburn and Obama then selected the VP candidate.
The tone-deaf and arrogant lessons from Hillary in 2016 loomed heavy as a stark reminder of just how important Clyburn and the AME network was to Biden’s chances; and the AME network would not let the DNC forget.
The message from James Clyburn and Barack Obama to DNC Chairman Tom Perez and the Team behind Biden was really simple: without us you would have been dealing with Bernie Sanders, and the DNC would be on the brink of disassembly… so, ‘take a knee.’
The disposable term began.
I saw this on Citizens Free Press yesterday and watched it. It was really good.
I used to live in Minneapolis years ago. It was hard to watch the city burn a few years ago. It had changed so much since when I lived there.
Its really sad. It was a nice place.
Once the Democrats take over a city/town they destroy it. If they take over a county/state/nation………………look at California, or some call it Mexafornia
Yes, there’s nothing they can’t ruin. My Mother once told me, “some people have to ruin everything.”
Cancer ruins everything. When you look at human beings an earth from a very very macro level, it’s exactly like looking at a biological organism. Lefties are cancer. And you can see in a time delayed visual that the cities and states they move into constantly burn out and go to sh—. It’s really that’s simple. Humans are exactly like cancer and antibodies. The latter being logical human beings.
None of this is surprising.
Sodom and Gomorrah are something to reflect on. A limit will eventually be reached.
Baltimore is the worst of them all I think.
Like pretty much every other city turned shithole by the Marxist Dems…
our favorite president stated: “everything woke turns to shit.”
Wasting your time calling this a “Marxist” takeover, as if this wreckage was coming from outside.
You miss the point. – this is a take over by the massive deep state public sector unions.
And you are paying them. You are an accessory to the crime, every April 15.
What is scary is that almost all planes from Rapid City stop over there…Yes a stop over is different then driving through.
So was Portland Oregon…
Seattle too
Being older, I’ve met guys like George Floyd before. Thugs who go thru life living a con. Everything they do is part of a con. Bullies. Scum.
It finally caught up with him like it does with many who act that way.
The bad part is all the people that he negatively affected. Many life changingly grievously.
Shakedown scamming. Obama is the epitome of this.
You forgot good ole Al Sharpton….Just think about it Al Sharpton the guy who still owes millions in back taxes was in the middle of them all creating more chaos and escalating the chaos and damages.
$2 Billion in damages because of guys like Sharpton. A large majority of those affected were minority owned businesses and homes. SAD, just sad.
Add to that the uninsured losses and the long term economic cost due to shuttered businesses. Also the cost of sky-rocking crime rates.
Do you know what wasn’t damaged? Three gas stations across the street from three different universities in St. Paul were burned in the mostly peaceful protesting. But not so much as one flower was damaged on any of the school grounds.
Odd how the colleges were not targets.
Speaking of Sharpton, he apparently a member of one the “divine nine”. The nine are the upper tier black fraternities. It’s interesting once you start paying attention who else are members. One you see it, you can’t in see it.
Floyd was the male version of Sharpton’s Tawana Brawley. “Give us money and let us pillage or we burn everything down…. nah we will burn everything down anyhow.”
Prexactly.
It’s a script followed and repeated .. because it delivers results. The media sells the bullshit.
Been going on long before sharpton stumbled on it
1 million likes. His hard work to keep the dem plantation alive.
SEIU is the one who brung us Obama – follow everything Obama says and does right back to SEIU. Then it all makes sense.
The seiu was/is just another ‘front’ organization for the big-player globalist puppet-masters.
Just like the illegal DACA and DAPA scam.
Did Floyd commit a crime? Yes. He used counterfeit money.
Was his crime bad enough that he should be executed after being arrested and subdued? Nope.
If Chauvin had taken Floyd to jail, we’d never have heard about this arrest. Instead, Chauvin had to go Gestapo on Floyd.
So, Chauvin going to prison was the right call by the jury.
Did you see the coroner report? He was not killed by Chauvin; lethal dose of fentanyl combined with heart disease.
Fentanyl, Meth, Adrenaline, and police contact is a heck of a ride for anyone.
People with hypertension should not be using recreational drugs. /s
He also had Covid. So he was a dead man walking, even without the heart disease and fentanyl. /s
Floyd died by a self-inflicted overdose. Chauvin’s trial was nothing but a sacrifice to the savages who would otherwise have burned the city to the ground. Everyone knows it. I am glad Floyd is gone, and Officer Chauvin should be released.
Not only released, but pardoned and awarded ample compensation for false arrest and a life ruined.
Yes. He wasn’t even given his pension, severance pay…nothing.
They throw money around like it’s growing on trees if you’re BLM, illegal immigrant or corrupt as they are but give nothing but grief to the rest.
Or if your Iran or Ukraine.
You clearly know nothing of the events and it’s absurd to pretend that this was to be avoided. The BLM idiocy was planned, bankrolled and executed as political and WEF strategy.
Nonsense response, Fred. But I know you still need to believe this.
We don’t.
Floyd died of an overdose and violently resisted a very lawful arrest. Watch the documentary. Then get back to us.
George Floyd killed George Floyd. He O.D. on Fentynol. There was no strangulation. Chauvin used no excess force. If you watch the film, you’d know that.
Living in a suburb North of Mpls., saw it firsthand.
The narrative is bullshit.
Blue cities are corrupt shitscapes
Ah. We have a pretender……a pretending not to know things, sort of person.
Your narrative is a lie. Did you even read this? At all?
The original medical report says otherwise. Are you going for the dumbest post of the day here?
Slither back under that rock….
You are not very informed!
Floyd was released early from prison serving a term for armed assault, etc. He was on parole! Possession and use of Fentanyl and Meth would have sent him back to prison for years to serve the remainder of his sentence. Sitting in the police SUV he kept saying he didn’t want to go back to prison and that he couldn’t breathe. Chauvin removed Floyd from the back seat of the vehicle and called for the EMT to transport him. The EMT got lost and Floyd was restrained by the police until they arrived. It was the Fentanyl and methamphetamine that killed Floyd not the police!
I don’t believe Floyd was on parole at the time he died. His aggravated robbery conviction was in Texas, and he got out of prison in 2013.
Is your comment ‘for real’ or are you being purposefully obtuse?
Seems as if Fred was born obtuse.
Thanks for openly admitting you didn’t watch the video or possess any actionable knowledge of what occurred.
Thank you very much.
Delusional much?
haha… be a better troll. At least entertain us.
Did you even bother to read Sundance’s article?
He wasn’t executed. That came out recently in the news. Chauvin followed proper procedures, and is appealing his wrongful conviction. The only one responsible for George Floyd’s death is George Floyd.
UNFORTUNATELY, Supreme Court found against him today.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/11/supreme-court-rejects-derek-chauvins-appeal-reconsider-conviction/
Reading comprehension troubles?
Wrong! If Chauvin had taken Floyd to jail in handcuffs Floyd would have died in the squad car enroute. The result would have been EXACTLY the same. Same riots. Same fake charges. Same media hysterics. This was a no-win situation for the police. The script was already written. All the orchestrators needed was some drugged-up thug to die from overdose while in custody. Floyd just happened to be who got famous. The drugs Floyd took that day and a lifetime of drug abuse by Floyd are what killed him. Floyd was murdered by Floyd, nobody else. Cops just happened to get in the way because they tried to do their job.
If Floyd would have followed the instructions of the cops who arrived on the scene first, and just sat in the cop car like a normal crook who was caught tying to use counterfeit money does, Floyd would have been long gone to jail and there would have been no need to Chauvin to arrive on the scene.
Had Floyd followed the initial instructions of LE he could have had a peaceful overdose death at the police station and his family would be $27 milly poorer today because you are correct, no one would know Floyd’s name.
Once George swallowed his stash, he was a dead man.
Your last sentence….surely you jest.
Look at all the reports by the physicians that the organized crime syndicate conveniently deep 6’d.
Chauvin was not given a fair trial and now the Supreme Court shows us once again that they’re also members of the crime syndicate.
This is disgusting and makes my blood boil.
Wrong Floyd went crazy on Chauvin. Spasms are not a good look for transportation.
Your response is typical of the “I love the headline” and don’t want to know the details crowd. Take a 100 minutes and learn something. watch the video and then post.
Apparently you didn’t watch the video! He died of an overdose.
Did you watch the documentary?
The officers involved acted professionally and tried to restrain Floyd while he continually resisted arrest while high on a cocktail of crystal and fentanyl. Chauvin was following his training and waiting for EMT response which was much longer than it should have been. Not a police problem.
The chief of police lied on the stand when he said Chauvin did not follow his training with the approved restraint he used.
Floyd was not executed. He died of a drug overdose and a reckless lifestyle.
You left MAJOR FACTS OUT OF YOUR POST
Your conclusions thus are suspiciously thin and break credulity.
Threatened a store employee with physical harm. Had an extensive criminal record that included pushing a loaded gun into the pregnant belly of a woman. A known drug fiend and dealer. The hard stuff. Not weed. Was and sis refuse to comply with lawful orders. Resisted physically and wrestled with arresting officer.
Was high as a kite
Whether the knee to neck was necessary is moot. It was a standard police practice AND LAWFUL. A trained method to restrain a criminal in this kind of situation. The police chief and police union ABANDONED chauvin and never defended his actions. Because they were cowards.
The coroner proved with forensic evidence his overall health and drugged state were the contributing causes of this death. How do you explains hundreds, thousands of criminals who did not die from this restraint method? It’s still a practice in at least 5 states that I know of. If there was some real risk we would see dozens of deaths similar to this. We have none of that. What we do have is someone so jacked on some of the most powerfully deadly drugs he was likely to get died that day by slightly exerting himself. Drugs killed this criminal. The cop was doing what he was trained to do. Read sundance sunlight article again. Don’t skip parts you don’t like. Its tempting to repeat fake claims because it’s been 24/7 echo chambering false claims to replace reasonable fact based judgements with a political and corrupt narrative.
There is a friggin statue of this criminal. A statue.
You should do better
Did you bother to watch the documentary? The body cam footage?
Police spent some 18 minutes trying to get Floyd in a position to take him to jail.
Only his collapse after continually resisting arrest necessitated the use of the restraining technique approved by the city of Minneapolis/Police department while awaiting EMS, performed by the officers.
Officer Chauvin arrived late to the scene and only moments before Floyd collapsed. He was not a member of the initial group of Officer dispatched to the scene.
The restraining maneuver, contacting dispatch to send EMS, AND THEN awaiting their arrival, was established procedure.
Dr. Baker, who performed the autopsy noted that if Floyd had been found alone and unresponsive, and no other factors were know, with the level of fentenol found in his system, it would be reasonable to assume Overdose.
First, try watching the movie with the sound on.
Yes
Your comment makes sense to all democrats in this game.
Biden is as guilty of fraud corruption and taking the trophy he never won.
He is this guy in his whole career of life.
Derp.
Thumbs down.
Live in a lovely, but woke coastal California city. Have to still look at a massive George Floyd “I can’t breathe” mural put up by the woke Act Blue forces in town.
The ones who claimed it money laundering operation, BLM, should turn police money over to SEIU and the teachers unions instead. Read their Manifesto. Police unions had to be punished for supporting Trump.
Fear not, for the followers of the Al Gore Rhythm will meet their demise very quickly, and very soon. They cannot escape what they have wrought upon themselves.
The “Christian Church” at its absolute lowest, contorted, infiltrated worst…..complete with sexual abominations. Jesus is not in it.
What influence in fact have Christian ecclesiastical establishments had on civil society? In many instances they have been upholding the thrones of political tyranny. In no instance have they been seen as the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wished to subvert the public liberty have found in the clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate liberty, does not need the clergy.

Combined with a heart condition. When’s Mr. Chauvin gonna get justice??
George Floyd was the Gulf Of Tonkin psy-op to help try and destroy PDJT & MAGA.
When I used to read fairy-tales, I fancied that kind of thing never happened, and now here I am in the middle of one!
– Alice
The difference between truth and fiction;
Fiction has to make sense, and come to some kind of resolution.
Congress basically gave authorization for the Vietnam War with the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, a resolution based on ‘events’, part of which were highly exaggerated and part of which never happened. 50,000 more Americans then went on to die pretty much for nothing, except to provide cover for politicians and a political secdef and political generals.
“There is nothing new under the sun”.
LBJ wanted to focus on his War on Poverty instead. Which he hoped would distract people enough and not explore the real issues behind JFK assassination.
He just turned the entire Vietnam misadventure over to the military-industrial complex. He showed zero interest in it. Just when the TV cameras were running.
Obviously not from Supreme Court……political dynamite

Supreme Count =
Profiles in Courage.Chauvins did not have an attorney for the Supreme Court appeal per the last sentence in the GP article. Would this have affected the outcome?
Never.
The mob will not permit it.
The Supreme Court just denied to hear his appeal today!
Remember ACB crying over Floyd!
The Minnesota Supreme Court turned this down.
US Supreme court may be interested in what in fact constitutes a USC expressed guaranteed “right loan impartial jury”.
His latest appeal was denied…
Never. Supreme Court just refused to hear his appeal.
All the violence and threats against the SC by the left worked.
The Minnesota SC; not SCOTUS.
No, Jaye. It’s SCOTUS. Minnesota SC declined to review the case back in July. No more appeals left.
Commenters are missing the fact that Chauvin was convicted of both state and federal charges, and that HE PLED GUILTY (big mistake) to the federal civil rights violation, earning a 21-year concurrent sentence. Even if the state convictions were to disappear now, Chauvin would still go to prison (maybe a nicer cage), and fed convictions rarely include early release unless the prisoner is dying.
His argument to SCOTUS was that he would not have pled if he had been aware of the dissenting ME’s report on Floyd’s cause of death. That’s a weak legal position. It’s almost unheard of to get a do-over if you have decided voluntarily to accept any type of guilty plea. He won’t be getting a new trial.
Chauvin would have to get two different kinds of pardons now, from both a governor and a president. I can’t see that happening. I don’t have enough imagination.
Probably like when Milosevic did, after he died and long after the Clinton Admin/CFR/NATO war crimes against the Serbs and their Muslim/NATO expansion illegal wars was forgotten by most.
Who remembers the Minneapolis where Mary lived?
Watch and weep….
Thank you, Betsy. I loved that show. How far we’ve fallen.
I did as well, akearn. Looked forward to it every Saturday night. Days were simpler then.
Mary “clump of cells” Moore? No thanks.
If I remember correctly, Ed Asner went full commie.
Same thing happened to the cities where my family came from. Once the Democrats and their Plantation dependents come, they ravage like a horde of locusts and destroy everything, and than complain that the racist whites/republicans who had to flee, were racist for not opening stores in the city they took over and destroyed.
It’s heartbreaking Bet, it brings back memories, because I saw just a bit of what my elders dealt with, I shudder to think of what they must have experienced. I know they had a low intensity war against Republicans & White people. They murdered business owners across the street and on both sides of the family business, robbed him over 100 times. He said it was a nice city until the 60’s cultural marxist revolution of Alinsky/Hayden/Carmichael/etc etc Students For a Democrat society was one of these pre-Antifa marxist groups under Globalist-Democrat control
I don’t know what is more tragic, dear friend…
Seeing what has been done to once beautiful cities, cesspits all now…
Or having lived in them in the day when they were livable environs and watching the degradation and all that goes with it (as you write…breaks my heart) metastasize until the only inhabitants which could possibly be happy with it would be the rats and roaches.
I know the soul was ripped out of those who suffered the destruction, whose lives were turned into daily trials and destruction.
A human tragedy of epic proportions.
It didn’t have to be that way.
After that I have no other words…
Colkitto…
I think this would interest you and our fellow Tree Dwellers. It is an interview with Dr Theodore Dalrymple, writer and thinker extraordinaire and a retired British psychiatrist who worked with prisoners who came out of the slums in that country.
I devour anything he writes; and while I was trying to access an article he wrote in 2000 about those people and their psychopathies , all stumbled across this interview about his book “Life at the Bottom”.
Human nature is universal. I can’t recommend this 55 minutes too highly.
“A British Slum Doctor Tackles Poverty”
I too love his writings. He’s very politically incorrect.
As I recall, his main thesis is the lack of taking responsibility. To a poor person or prisoner, it’s always the fault of someone or something else, never ever their own.
In a nutshell.
Now-a-days, they teach young folk a victim mentality. Counterintuitive to taking responsibility.
Yes, the infection is spreading to every city.
The 40%+ of Minneapolis police who quit after the riots will be accused of racism for not staying
on the job until they were Chauvined.
They’d be fools to stay when there are opportunities elsewhere…and not in another blue state or city.
I used to walk up and down Nicollet Mall and thru that neighborhood. Used to be a nice place.
Today’s Marxism is why we can’t have nice things anymore.
Second Amendment activist Maj Toure had the best response to George Floyd’s death:
Once again Fred, the officer followed his training and subdued Floyd until the EMTs arrived, late.
Under the new enlightened Biden police policies, Derek should have just let him go since George was going to resist arrest until he died. Which I am sure he would have done so in hindsight.
Then St. George would have driven his highly intoxicated ass down the road and run over a black child while dying from an od.
Next, Chauvin is arrested for homicide of two black citizens. Then our fellow citizens, after being incited by our wonderfully caring politicians proceed to burn down large swaths of several cities.
Next Chauvin is charged again with 2
The guy in the video is wrong.
There was no injury to Floyd’s neck that could account for his dying. None.
And a prosecutor being able to convince a jury, doesn’t mean you actually committed a crime.
It will be the same thing if a jury were to convict PDJT of a crime,. It doesn’t mean he actually committed one.
Clearly you didnt watch the documentary. This is why speaking on these items before the facts come out OR the facts being hidden are so damaging. The officer did not see Floyd slam a bunch of drugs, and even asked if he was on anything? Floyd said “NO”
If he had seen Floyd take fentanyl, why would he ask him if he was on any drugs?
Combine that with Floyd screaming he couldnt breath for the entirety of the arrest, and screaming he couldnt get into the squad car because he was “claustrophobic” even though they literally pulled him out of a car to begin with, and Floyd has a history of resisting, and Floyd was kicking at them..why would an officer believe Floyd and needed to get him immediate medical assistance?
Second, in the documentary, as an ambulance was called, clearly it was stalled and diverted. The EMTs didnt even use proper protocol after being rerouted and delayed.
The whole “I can’t breathe” schtick resonated with Marxists because it closely echoed the words of one of their Marxist heroes: Frantz Fanon who famously wrote “When we revolt it’s not for a particular culture. We revolt simply because, for many reasons, we can no longer breathe” ― from his 1970 book “The Wretched of the Earth.“
Marxists are the ONLY ones who respond to “dog whistles”
It was difficult watching the female officer who was in the precinct that burned. I cannot put into words the anger I felt at the monsters responsible for ALL the burning, looting, and murdering that happened because of this abomination/miscarriage of justice. FGF.
I made it through :28 seconds and shut it off. I am still to angry and disappointed to watch it. I have lived within a few miles of this corner for my entire 68 years and I have not been near here since 2018 or so. I used to frequent lake Street area businesses and felt perfectly safe navigating my way through any part of the cities. All that changed when the political ruling class destroyed my city and state and are well on their way to destroying our country. Frey,the city council, Freeman, Ellison and walz have ruined this beautiful city. The fact that they suffered no consequences and actually were reelected for those that ran is madding..
I hope that it can be fixed but I strongly doubt it. If I was 15 years old younger I would leave. I just do not have the energy. For that I am sad as I do not deserve the increase in taxes or the arrogant attitude of the powers that be. I feel like a chump.
Come the “election period” in your area, become a vaccuum, and “suck up” all of the mail out ballot envelopes that are obviously mailed to phantom voters…if they are “just laying around, where ANYBODY could pick them up”,..consider being “anybody”.
What you DO with them is of coarse something deserving of careful consideration, just know that taking them out of circulation alone, is equal to +2 votes, if they should somehow get to the counting center marked for “Trump” thats +4 votes, and IF the signature verifitcation system is working as its supposed to, no phantom voter ballot will be counted.
NOT suggesting anything,…
just sayin,…
I live in an area where people still have BLM signs in their yards and windows. Electric cars and rich liberals dot the horizon. We use the same corrupt voting machines that everyone else uses. My congresswoman is ilhan ohan this area could not elect a republican unless by mistake. Hell we could not get rid of the mayor due to rank choice voting and it really was rank. Or the waltzing walz. the fix is in in Mn.
Sprinkle in a little “20 Mule Team Borax” to really get things clean.
My wife and I used to live in a burb of Murderapolis and would so enjoy our trips into the city.
Now in outstate MN, we haven’t set foot in Murderapolis since BLM and never will.
BTW, the recent elections there saw 3 avowed “democratic socialists” win positions on the city council.
Can’t fix stupid.
I feel your anger and frustration, though I don’t live in the city itself, I’ve watched and lived through the decline of this state over many decades, regretting for a few years now that I did not move out. But seems few states are safe from damage these politicians inflict as destroy as they our nation and us.
Decline of the the state is true, but misleading.
The overwhelmingly blue population of the combined seven county metro area has always outnumbered the populace of the outstate counties–which vastly outnumber the aforementioned counties.
The last few years the Evil Seven have added St.Louis county (Duluth) and Olmstead county (Rochester/Mayo Clinic), Clay county (Moorhead, a massive social services hub) to their quiver.
The entire rest of the state’s counties vote red, but there’s just not enough population out here to offset.
Similar to the circumstances in CA and OR which is driving the New California and Greater Idaho movements, most of Minnesota needs to join ranks with ND/SD.
We simply don’t have the numbers, nor do we share the ideology of the metro areas.
Two new states: Minnekota and Libsota 🙂
It’s hard to believe the city folk keep voting for this mess, yet they do. Same thing is happening here in Ky.
That’s correct.
Everything in the U.S., from TV/Cable commercials/actors on out, is based on the South African model.
Ty & regards for being aware of what is taking place. The commercials on Roku channels are unbelievable.

The Somalian insurrection that president’ birth certificate’ ushered in is part and parcel of this whole charade.

If current polls are to be believed, it would seem that the Clyburn/Obama effect is not going to work in 2024, with Trump receiving more and more of the black vote. Many of them have awakened to the fact that they have been had.
Let’s hope so.

Thank you Sundance for this essay and the critical thinking and research behind it.
When you see all the pieces, you can see the puzzle picture. And the strings of puppets are viable to all who know the cost of pretending.
This essay is a challenge that “they” can not and will not ignore.
But Treepers know that the Truth Has No Agenda.
What a horror it is to know that such hatred for America exists within our borders.
Thanks for the info!
Supreme Court Rejects Derek Chauvin’s Appeal to Reconsider Conviction in George Floyd CaseJim Hᴏft Nov. 20, 2023 10:30 am
He does NOT belong in jail….
Floyd caused every aspect of his own death.
If any statue should be torn down, it should be the crazy memorials to Floyd.
I would give you a thumbs up, but I can’t. It still hurts. You understand.
Chauvin along with the J6 political prisoners should receive $5 million for each year they are held by the Occupation Government.
FYI Nothing Has Changed:
Supreme Court declines appeal from Derek Chauvin to review conviction in George Floyd murder.
https://thehill.com/homenews/4318639-supreme-court-declines-review-derek-chauvins-george-floyd-murder-conviction/
“Everything within the strategy was coordinated and planned carefully. The script is how the political value is maximized.”
Where is this on OUR side?
Where are the white hats?
Aside from opening eyes and seeing things for what they truly are, what’s being done to counter these efforts?
Where are the “good guys” in the enforcement agencies?
Where is the law and order to shut down ANY of this kind of crap when it happens?
Are ALL these people compromised?
Is it just us left – We the People?
“Where are the “good guys” in the enforcement agencies?”
Scarce … … mighty scarce.

nice lice.“After 2012 reelection team Obama shifted toward expanding political influence in the hispanic community.”
Something problematic from the outset, that never really succeeded.
There has always been friction, between blacks and hispanics, and half black/half white Obama, did not really have a lot of appeal, and saying “Yes we can!” in Spanish just came across as pandering.
Travon was in a fight with a HISPANIC guy that was trying to protect his neighborhood, from a black hoodlum, and this detail WAS noticed by “the hispanic community”.
When PDJT offered the Dems more than they were asking for, for “the Dreamers” and the Dems TURNED IT DOWN (as PDJT KNEW they would) it demonstrated to everyone, including the Dreamers that the D party was callously using their situation for its own ends, and didn’t really give a sh*t about the dreamers.
Every one of these groups has a small cadre of trained marxists, that need a larger crowd of the group who’s grievance they are exploiting; whether its BLM, DREAMERS or TRANS.
And once the group sees they are being exploited and leaves, all you have is a small group of marxists; happened with BLM too, as true black neighborhood activists that initially jumped on the BLM train, noticed no $ flowing INTO the hood, only destruction.
Hence when BLM went to Watts, a coalition of bloods and crips met them and,…invited them to leave.
Actually, some of the early alarms on BLM being a financial con were local activists calling out BLM as a fraud.
Good one MP.
Ben Crump and Al Sharpton are now targeting another grieving family for exploitation in Mississippi. The demoncrat’s new nome de plume, is “Campaign Zero”. They didn’t manage to cheat Tate Reeves out of office; now, they plan to target the JPD and somehow link it to Reeves. I wonder what they’ll do when they find out that the mayor of Jackson, MS is an avowed Socialist?

Minneapolis at one time, had a very simple way of existence; presently it is in shambles.
St Paul is in the same adverse condition. Hudson WI is experiencing a very negative overflow.

Just as long as Kiev doesn’t fall, everything is good.
Riots started within hours of Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey telling a gathering that “being black in America should not be a death sentence” and “he’d be alive if he were white”
Frey’s vile lie launched billions of dollars of damage throughout the country.
Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.Derek Chauvin was actually prosecuted by a team of lawyers from LAWFARE and a hired-gun medical examiner from Chicago who lied under oath that “merely sitting on a person’s back for nine minutes” would cause death!
Never mind that Floyd has 3x the Fentanyl, Meth and Marijuana in his system to kill ten men. The autopsy report was ignored at trial because the Chicago expert said that incredibly the Fentanyl wasn’t the cause of death. The reason why Floyd was held by Chauvin was because Floyd went berserk in the back seat of the Police SUV screaming that he couldn’t breathe so he was removed and Chauvin called for the EMT. The EMT got lost but even still Floyd was still alive at the hospital and died later in the ER.
I watched the jury selection and nearly all of the jurors were asked if they supported BLM and nearly all of them said they did and Chauvin’s Defense attorney allowed them to remain as jurors.
What was really crazy is that more Blacks were killed in that riot because of the riot, good black people.
This has been done to almost every good sized west coast city —And now the midwest.
.
Southern cities included.
And the completely unbiased and bi-partisan panel, has determined to give the grand prize to Barack Obama for his NIGHTTIME IN AMERICA. Now NIGHTTIME IN AMERICA is a token of this man’s genius. He has said so himself and repeatedly that he could change perceptions by calling his plan for knocking down the pesky Constitution NIGHTTIME IN AMERICA. In other words, he could have been more specific, but rather than allude to an articulation of the mundane, he has come to the conclusion that brevity is the importance of our nations first world existence.
3 Word slogans, “hope and change ” “take a knee.” I’ll add one more. build back better.

And ask any lefty Marxist exactly what that looks like, they have no real answer. They see “utopia”. One made up in their mind.

Each lawyer has a specialty and performs specific tasks for this case. (9) of the (14) are “outside” lawyers that are all working pro bono. Why are MN Hennepin County attorneys not used?

Serious question.
The Supreme Court has denied Derek Chauvin’s appeal — although many know the man is innocent.
What now are Mr. Chauvin’s options?
Black Leaders Of 65% Black Memphis—America’s Largest Black Majority City—Admit: Even If The National Guard Patrolled The Streets, Black Violent Crime Would Still Be A Problem | VDARE.com
Memphis is 65% black and 24% white. It is, according to the Memphis Commercial-Appeal, writing in June, the largest black majority black city in America.
“I don’t care if we had the entire United States Army in the City of Memphis if we continue to have the same individuals committing crimes, arresting our way out of this is not possible.”
So what does life look like in America’s blackest big city, where a prominent black theologian pushes for the city to embrace both blackness and the black agenda? One where black leaders and the black police chief don’t believe the U.S. National Guard could even restore order.
From Thieves ransacking multiple stores to the untimely murder of a St. Jude Employee in downtown Memphis, Taylor says the dramatic uptick in crime in Memphis this past weekend motivated him to send a letter to the governor.
Taylor said his constituents are paralyzed by fear and his constituents are calling for the National Guard to help restore order.
Former Memphis School board member and Pastor Kenneth Whalum has been an early advocate for the National Guard coming to the Bluff City.
“We’re already in a police state except that it’s the criminals policing the streets. We are in a state of emergency. I’ve been saying it for a long, long time,” said Whalum.

I may have missed the answer, but since SCOTUS punted on reviewing the murder conviction of Derek Chauvin, is there any other way he can get a new trial?
Curiously, the first words I heard of Floyd’s death were right here where it was referred to as a “horrific murder”.
I guess time does indeed change facts.
Who said that? When?
Show us the quote, date and time, and who said it, or sit down.
Read it and weep.

Bring the thread.
See above.
I saw today that SCOTUS refused to hear Chauvins appeal. Sad since there’s no court in MN who want the truth. I saw the headwinds in MN back in 2000. I’d lived in MN since birth and in the Twin Cities for 25 years. I was able to make the move in 2005 to Middle TN. I got out before it really changed. Taxes were already high but we had limp Republicans, I wouldn’t even call them RINO’s. They were Commie Dems in drag.
The state has gone down ever since the 1990’s. Common sense still exists in outstate but they still vote Commie Dem. I don’t see any hope for change there. There’s very few many left there, even sibs who vote Commie Dem have moved to Florida. Yep, Florida you got them. lol. My conservative brother moved to AZ.
One of the saddest parts of the George Floyd riots was the area destroyed were mostly small minority owned businesses. They don’t care and nobody ever talks about those victims.
This was an Obama minions operation!!! Much like they had Treavon Martin in 2012, they needed another similar event and I think it was supposed to be the Ahmad Aurburey situation that occurred a couple of weeks earlier but the Covid situation clouded this story and the MSM let it fall through the news cycle but regained their narrative control when the DNC and leftist groups targeted this for the beginning of the Color Revolution of the Summer of 2020!!! 🤨
The state of Minnesota was not flooded with immigrants over decades for the winters
Another FBI criminal operation.
I could only watch 21 minutes of this. It was an event that was horrible to me. George Floyd was a thug, a criminal, delusional.
All the subsequent riots seemed contrived to me, even at the time. All the Democrat posturing and playing up to and excusing the violence. The rioters using the excuse of the contrived narrative to loot and burn and destroy. The Republicans afraid to speak out or even taking a knee to the violence. Corporate America paying millions to BLM, virtue signaling their support of the chaos.
But when George Floyd was canonized as a Jesus-figure, I was aghast and became really angry. I saw that BLM had become a heretical religion at that point with an anti-white, black victim dogma that was used to impose Marxist critical race theory on the educational system.
One can only imagine what mayhem the left has planned for the summer of 2024 to rile up the people prior to the November Presidential elections.
Also disheartening to read today that the Supreme Court declined to hear Officer Chauvin’s appeal:
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/courts/supreme-court-declines-derek-chauvins-appeal-floyd-murder
From the beginning had the feeling of total BS.
Marxist-Leninist strategy that seized on race and used useful idiots to split the nation. All of what they did across America is a result of communisms planned destruction of our nation. The attack has now turned to gender identity and destruction of our churches. Fear is the weapon of choice for these destructive Marxist. Fight back at every opportunity.
I remember blm where I live. They were going to burn and loot target, home depo until cops stopped the blm crowd with guns drawn at enterance of both stores and told blm crown anyone who tries to enter the store will be shot.
Well guess what happened?
Blm crowd folded and greenville, sc held firm and stopped blm thugs in their tracks.👀

It’s called The Fall of Minneapolis and it was produced by Liz Collin, a former local news anchor at WCCO-TV – the local CBS affiliate in Minneapolis. She was a well-respected journalist in Minnesota and worked with icon Don Shelby. That is – until she TOLD THE TRUTH about George Floyd. Then she was shunned. Now she works for Alpha News.
The film was produced by Liz Collin, a former anchor at WCCO-TV, a CBS affiliate in the Twin Cities, who was taken off air during the riots and demoted because her husband, Bob Kroll, was the Minneapolis police union chief at the time.
I grew up in the Twin Cities and we fled 4 years ago and took a loss on our home.
Beautiful state but never looked back as we saw the writing on the wall…
As a person who suffers from severe claustrophobia, I can understand the anxiety Floyd is feeling in the video. I often wonder when our overlords come to round us up, how I’ll react to what they might subject me to just because of this flaw I have. This is not to excuse Floyd’s lawbreaking or undermine the officers who are doing their instructed duties.
It is all so very insane how this sad incident was used by a very small revolutionary minority in our society to explode it. The real power behind this nuclear chain reaction was not the Leftist revolutionaries themselves, but those in the middle who allowed themselves to be the fuel so marginalized against President Trump that they permitted this crap to conflagrate, to send our whole world up in flames, just to get rid of him.
All of this goes on and the “republican” party stays silent with their thumbs up their collective butts. It is disgusting and offensive. I live in Colorado, and the are no conservatives in the “republican” party that I can identify shy of Lauren Boebert, and the party has a target on her back. Tina Peters ran for Attorney General in ’22, but she was “beaten” by a Soros funded leftist in the primary. As soon as I am eligible for my pension, I will flee this state as soon as I can. There are no elections, only “elections”. I see left wing dirtbags running as republicans everywhere I look. The outrage is never ending.
