We are completely filled with gratitude and honored to have been selected to host Vice President Biden, Dr. Jill Biden, and the Floyd family for this historic meeting, Williams said in a statement provided to Eater. Its unfortunate that Floyds death was the catalyst for this meeting, but we are so inspired by the Floyd familys resilience are hopeful that this meeting continues to advance the mission of justice for George Floyd.
According to National Public Radio, Biden did not attend the actual funeral because of concerns about his Secret Service detail causing a distraction. Hundreds of Houstonians lined up in the heat to say their goodbyes to Floyd, who attended high school in Houston and was involved with the citys illustrious rap scene.

I feel sorry for the dead guy’s family. The pain of mourning a loved one is exacerbated by having to endure a meeting from a pandering, senile old guy.
They tried to put a chip in his brain but it shorted out.
The painting of Floyd with a halo and angel’s wings was particularly touching /sarc
So sad for the family.
Innocent George’s GoFundMe account has gotten nearly 500k donations and is up to nearly $13 million. The campaign has gone global, getting donations from 125 countries.
I’d love to see video of how long the check sat on the table.
Suddenly families everywhere are looking at their ‘black sheep’ problem sons as potential rainmakers....
Me and your Uncle Cornpop go way back...you have such pretty eyes...
“Wow. Just wow.
Cue the folks who lecture repubs must reach out to the black community..
But according to Floyds brother, Philonise Floyd, the conversation did not go well, as he said Trump gave him little chance to express his views and appeared to have no interest in what he was trying to say.
He didnt give me an opportunity to even speak, Floyd told MSNBC on Saturday. It was hard. I was trying to talk to him, but he just kept, like, pushing me off, like I dont want to hear what youre talking about.
And I just told him, I want justice. I said that I couldnt believe that they committed a modern-day lynching in broad daylight.
The entire crisis was blown up out of proportion so as to trash Trump and anoint biden as the New Messiah.
Wow, creepy joe really zeros in on the little girls and starts with the touching, doesn’t he?
Lol...she does not look happy
Kids can sense an aura
When Joe Loses he can be the new Aflack Duck
I’m calling total BS. What a lying attention whore. But he’s a Democrat, like I’d expect anything else.
His handlers couldnt seat him next to an adult? Hes incorrigible...
Biden is hardly a contender, but let them keep thinking that
Which funeral? It would have caused a security nightmare and made it about the President. Why bring more stress?
No, the phone call was better.
“I wonder why they didnt meet at Popeyes?”
Because Biden wasn’t treating!
