Thursday, Revs. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton will visit Minnesota.

The civil rights leaders announced their visits in the midst of response to the death of George Floyd.

Rev. Al Sharpton shared the news via Twitter.

Headed to Minneapolis today!

— Reverend Al Sharpton (@TheRevAl) May 28, 2020 Meanwhile, Rev. Jackson's assistant told 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS he will hold a press conference to dicuss Floyd's death.

That's expected at about 1 p.m. Thursday. A location for the news conference hasn't yet been set.

The real question is will Rev. Jacksons illegitimate child be accompanying him and the same for Tawana Brawley with Al?

[euram]

yes, by all means, bring in the biggest race hustlers in the country, that will take care of everything. They smell money to be made here.

[faithhopecharity]

just what the Twin Cities needs! two more corrupt violence agitators to stir things up even more

what did you do in your life, granddaddy?
me? i went around USA stirring up violence mobs preaching racism and blind hatred

(and I made a ton of money at it, too!)

You know Rush will be all over this.

Are they bringing a few gasoline tanker trucks for the fire?

[jerod]

Well... At least they're wearing their mask....

Reverend Al will surely be bringing Tawana Brawley along.And Reverend Jesse will be reminding the rioters of the time he once said something like “it pains me to have reached a point in my life where,while walking down a dark street and hearing footsteps behind me,I look back and am relieved if I see it's a white person.”

Here we go again, not since Abbott & Costello or Martin & Lewis has such a comedy act existed.

The Dynamic Dupes has arrived.

A year or two ago, I heard that Jackson was diagnosed with dementia. How does he even KNOW what is happening in Minneapolis?

“””””””Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t this the same city where the Somali cop shot and killed that unarmed white woman a few years ago?””””””””””””

Yes. We didn’t protest, loot or burn and the reverends never came for a visit. Weird, right?

Biden told him.

One of my fantasies is to have a reporter or talk show host interview Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton, and ask him only questions about spiritual issues — no politics. For example, we could start with “Of all the baptisms, weddings, and funerals you have presided over, do any stand out?” And then maybe some doctrinal questions, like if he believes in the pre-Tribulation or post-Tribulation Rapture. When Jackson/Sharpton cannot give coherent answers to those questions, he will be revealed for the phony man-of-the-cloth that he really is, and his head will probably explode when he realizes that the whole country knows he has never been part of the solution, just part of the problem.

1. Opportunists and political ambulance chasers.

2. They need to stoke the flames, hoping they will be appointed the torch bearers, by acclamation, ‘cause they - both of ‘em - got nothin else.

[Kickass Conservative]

If Floyd was a White guy would they still be inciting, um visiting?

Asking for a friend...

[Demiurge2]

Kind of like harbingers of death, but with snappier suits.
