Shooting. The state attorney general, daniel cameron, said the use of force by the Police Officers was justified and that emotions cannot determine outcomes. If we simply act on emotion or outrage, there is no justice. Mob justice is not justice. Justice sought by violence is not justice. It just becomes revenge. And in our system, criminal justice isnt the quest for revenge, its the quest for truth, evidence and facts and the use of that truth as we fairly apply our laws. Our reaction to the truth today says what kind of society we want to be. We really want the truth, or do we want a truth that fits our narrative. Do we want the facts, or are we content to blindly accept our own version of events . We as a Community Must make this decision. Lou the decision has been reached at least in the courtroom, and you see a discussion forming in the streets of louisville. Soon after the announcement of the indictment, these people took to the streets. These were not, as i said, peaceful protes

Mr. Jeffries good morning, everyone. Earlier today we had a caucus call which began with a special tribute to the life and legacy of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader ginsburg. Atragic loss for the country, tragic loss for the Supreme Court, a tragic loss for the principles of liberty and justice for all as well as democracy. Dehart from dr. Jayne who is a biographer, having written the authoritative piece on Justice Ginsburgs life in 2018. As well as Linda Greenhouse who of course is a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist who has covered the Supreme Court for over 30 years. This has been a very difficult year for many throughout america.

Just made. Had a mcennanny briefing. His is about 40 minutes. Nancy pelosi, Chuck Schumer and representative ork have shown their blatant disregard for the United States constitution. Apparently it is now a high crime and misdemeanor worthy of impeachment for a lawfully elected president of the United States to exercise his constitutional duty. Article 2, section 2 of the constitution clearly states that the president , quote, shall nominate, end quote, justices of the Supreme Court when a vacancy occurs.
