There have been many statements floating around that Officer Thao is Derek Cauvin’s soon to be ex-wife Kellie Chauvin.

Her lawyer issued the following statement denying this, but did say Kellie’s brother was a police officer in St Paul. His name was not revealed.

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/may/31/kellie-chauvin-derek-chauvins-wife-not-sister-tou-/

I also read an interview from owner of the prior dance club/bistro where Chauvin worked security. Owner said he was, at times, very quick to “overreact” in situations at the club and customers made several complaints about him being “too rough”. She also said she did not think Chauvin and Floyd worked the same shifts. I am sure more will be revealed as to whether they knew each other and if there were problems between them.

911 call was released and over of the store described Floyd as being “very drunk”.
He was supposedly with a woman in a blue van and caller also she was also “drunk” and not acting “right”. I haven’t read any information about her....has anyone else?

Just a lot of really weird things about this whole incident.

Former MPD(Minneappolis police dept.) Officer Derek Chauvin Has Been Taken Into Custody In George Floyd’s Death, TBP wrote:

Interesting perspective: Staged Event?

...
There’s a few videos circulating of protesters being interviewed, saying, they are on georgesoros.com and you can sign up for paid protesting, and it is like a pyramid scheme, like, ACN or other where you can recruit more and get paid...I scoured that website, didn’t see anything. I’d like O’Keefe and CoreyDiggs to investigate this...perhaps expose it before Barr fails at it. I don’t see how this can be that difficult to get proof and broadcast it far and wide...heck, Kayleigh can even challenge the brainless commie journolists at a presser on this.

I'm not giving the police a pass

Since the "police" are ordered to do things by the Mayor, governor - in my way of thinking, this makes the police nothing more than TAX collectors.

The same ones that Christ talked about in the Bible.

They do not protect anything, show up after the fact, they have Fines/Tax quotas to meet to keep the city coffers full.

Some recent laws allow these "scum" to keep impounded propery as prizes / booty of war.

Does not seam right to me

[rodguy911]

Piglosi now on abc concentrating on the killing of Floyd and not touching the antifa terrorists and their destruction since they are part of her group,the terrorists/cabal. All she wants to talk about is the killing of Floyd.
She ignores Trump since “normal hasn't been so good.”
Piglosi talking about a potus being a unifying force for the country. This after eight long ones with the biggest divider ever baraque Q Hussein obammer. Just too good.
Hard left still hanging on to the 104,000 deaths from corona 19 instead of the real number which is about 5% of that since corona didn't kill anyone but only made existing conditions worse.Also those under 70 had less than a 1% chance of dying from corona.never mentioned by drivebys.

Stop spouting off half-baked rumors, ok, kabar? The paramedics gave a statement several days ago, that they were called earlier to help a man who "had a mouth injury".

The link came from a local NBC news feed. Your problem is with them, not me. Watch the video.

But at any rate, nobody told the paramedics the guy was dead up front.

You list a number of alleged facts. What are your sources? I don't take any of the initial press reports as gospel. The only real evidence that I have seen are the videos. The one I linked to was the first time I had ever seen that perspective. I am not defending the actions of Chauvin.

Think just maybe there was pressure on the coroner to make this all go away?

You kidding? Everyone wants Chauvin to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. If you took a vote, most would want him drawn and quartered or hanged in the public square. They want the same treatment for the other officers involved. The entire justice system has been put into overdrive to get this case into the rear view mirror. The last thing anyone in power wants is exculpatory information on Chauvin. As Judge Roy Bean used to say, "Han'em first, try'em later."

In the coming weeks, we will learn things that will contradict the initial narrative. Hell, the Mayor of St. Paul told us that all those arrested were from outside MN, which he had to retract when it came out that most were from MN. No way Chauvin and the others can receive a fair trial and proper due process. The political pressure is just too great and we have a video. There is not a person on this planet who doesn't think that Chauvin is innocent or that he doesn't deserve the ultimate punishment. My concern is mob justice. And the perpetuation of the myth that there is systemic racism in the justice system. White guilt has enabled the lawlessness that followed.

The Dems and the MSM will keep this pot boiling until election day. They will connect the incident to a racist Trump who sides with the police.

[rodguy911]

Good post I guess we shall see what transpires after this.WHat ever Trump does will most likely be done by EO since the house is lost for now.

[kabar]

We will just agree to disagree. No harm, no foul.

[DanZ]

Another major event was Trump's statement on China and the status of Hong Kong. We are in the process of resetting our relationship with China.

Interesting comments on Maria's show by Steve Bannon

comparing China's "annexation" of Hong Kong to the German annexation of the Sudetenland.The other implication in follow up comments to this was the description of Biden, makes him out to be Nevil Chamberlain

[milagro]

Very interesting piece of info offered by Ron Johnson, who was a guest on Maria Bartoromo’s “ Morning Futures”:
Johnson said that two weeks into the Trump administration, a staff meeting was held, and Gen. Flynn gave them a briefing. In attendance were the (now infamous) whistleblower and Shawn Misko (sp?), and at its end, Misko told the WB that Flynn was dangerous and needed to be taken out! And Misko then teamed up with Adam Schiff!!

[pugmama]

Comment from the club owner is here. She appears to suggest Chauvin was tougher on black customers.

[Steven Tyler]

Sheryl Atkinson has a news piece up.
Different thread on FR.

Seems George was stating “I can’t breathe” while handcuffed and standing up.

A few minutes later George is on the ground and three police officers holding George down

Weird!

[Fishtalk]

What is WB?

[chiller]

..."the media will find a way to change the focus once the heat starts to be applied to them."

Just this weekend on MSLSD, Joy Reid blamed the rioting on white nationalists (other say supremacists)

Earlier in the week, MSLSD was praising those in the streets. Once ANTIFA was suspected and ANTIFA started taking credit and throwing shade on leftists like Reid, the protestors were condemned and blamed.

[DanZ]

Well, he does have stage IV lung cancer.

Hopefully Rush lives long enough to see Trump re-elected and sworn in for his second term

[kabar]

that should be interesting to see how through they are with him and his role in enabling all the Russian kabuki theater.

Must watch TV. I have seen some theories that Rosenstein was a "good guy" who was acting as the undercover cop to infiltrate the coup attempt. He went along with FISA and Mueller so he could ensnare them all. I don't believe it.

Will Graham and the Reps do what is necessary to wring the truth out of this guy? If you read Rosenstein's statement about appearing before the committee, he sounds like a guy who is happy to assist the USG in rooting out corruption.

Rosenstein thanked Graham on Wednesday for the opportunity to testify before the committee.

"During my three decades of service in law enforcement, I learned firsthand that most local, state, and federal law enforcement officers deserve the high confidence people place in them, but also that even the best law enforcement officers make mistakes, and that some engage in willful misconduct," he said in a statement. "Independent law enforcement investigations, judicial review, and congressional oversight are important checks on the discretion of agents and prosecutors."

I am also concerned about Graham's statement about the purpose of the inquiry. Like Clinton, you have to parse his words.

"Mr. Rosenstein will testify about the new revelations contained in the Horowitz report concerning the FISA warrant applications and other matters," Chairman Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican, said in a statement. "This will be the first in a series of oversight hearings regarding all things Crossfire Hurricane and the Mueller investigation."

[chiller]

O’Brien is strong on This Weak.

[Qiviut]

And finally Graham starts his hearings with Rosenstein.

***************************************************

Rosenstein is a Seditious B*tard. I hope they have him squirming in his seat, white as a sheet & sweating puddles; however, I don’t expect that from Miss Linda.

Republicans on the Committee:
Grassley*
Cruz*
Sasse
Hawley
Tillis
Ermst
Crapo
Kennedy**
Blackburn*

* might do some decent questioning (IMO)
** can’t wait to hear his comments - he cracks me up all the time; however, he can really put the blisters on someone in his folksy way.
