And lets not hesitate to mention we called minneapolis part of the twin cities. St. Paul, minnesota, had their hands full tonight, and were waiting for an update from there. The mayor of st. Paul, this is video tape from earlier tonight. The mayor of st. Paul sent out a rather urgent call for the National Guard. We know that 500 members of the Minnesota National guard have been authorized and ordered to report. And just because this is human life in the middle of a pandemic, lets pause just to remind everybody these are 500 men and women who were as of yesterday at home with their families doing the right thing during a pandemic.

Not just in police hands but in forcible custody, broad daylight, on his stomach in the street on video with his neck under the knee of an officer. This is a new angle that has surfaced late today. And whats notable about it is the audio it contains. Its the number of Police Officers you see detaining him there in the street and the number of times you can hear mr. Floyd say he couldnt breathe.
