Trump vows to end protests; tear gas fired on protesters near White House

WASHINGTON/MINNEAPOLIS - U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday vowed to end violent protests in major cities across the nation “now,” saying that he would deploy the military if mayors and state governors refused to call out the National Guard. As Trump spoke in the Rose Garden of the White House, live television images showed police firing tear gas to dispel demonstrators in Lafayette Park, across the street.

The Hennepin County Medical Examiner on Monday released details of its autopsy findings that also said Floyd’s death was a homicide caused by asphyxiation. The county report added that Floyd suffered cardiopulmonary arrest while being restrained by police and that he had arteriosclerotic and hypertensive heart disease, fentanyl intoxication and recent methamphetamine use.

The unrest, which erupted as the country was easing sweeping lockdowns to stop the spread of the coronavirus, began with peaceful protests over Floyd’s death. “This is therapeutic. My heart was real heavy this morning so I came down extra early and when I got here, the heaviness lifted,” said Diana Jones, 40, the mother of four children. “This right here let’s me know that things are going to be OK.”

The USA is a police state. How do you compare to North Korea or Cuba now you insecure little man?

Reuters you conveniently forgot to mention curfew had already started, these people were all on the streets illegally

Very soon the tear gas will finish like the PPE, Trump should be worn.

Maybe they should have obeyed the curfew orders in sensitive areas like Washington D.C.

Evil US dictatorship

Traitors demonstrators must be handled with iron fist it is nothing but election stunt of Democrats with the help of Chinese

And then the US calls out China or another country run by a despot for doing the same thing.

The president just declared war on Americans. Please please vote him out in Nov. I am in shock and disgusted with this mans words of hate and discontent. TrumpResign AmericaOrTrump AmericaHasNoPresident TrumpResignow VoteBlueToSaveAmerica2020

FakeNewsAlert They are not firing in peaceful protestors and you know that!! Morons. It is troublemakers and people threatening. Unreal

THIS IS SO PEACEFUL? !

rubber bullets, water cannons, paint balls, handcuffs, batons, tear gas, pepper spray, guns, tasers and the rule of law to stand behind it.

Deceptive headline, up until now law enforcement has been / is under 'local control' as it was when George Floyd became deceased in the longest standing democrat state in the USA at the hands of state police. No Trump angle media is inciting racial division misleading headline.

RamyInocencio Would this be those peaceful protesters who set a families home on fire with children inside and then blocked the firefighters?

White House divided on Trump addressing racial tensionsThe infighting over a formal speech reflects the bigger question of how to soothe a country also grappling with a health and economic crisis. SethAbramson A trump Resignation would be a start. Judging by his Twitter feed the past several days, there is nothing he could say that would be helpful. It would be best if he doesn’t say anything at this point. That’s the problem. He has to go away or he could start something that won’t stop. No one wants to hear from him.
