Campaign staff for Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden are advertising their donations to a group that pays bail fees in Minneapolis after the city’s police jailed people protesting the killing of a black man by a white police officer.
At least 13 Biden campaign staff members posted on Twitter on Friday and Saturday that they made donations to the Minnesota Freedom Fund, which opposes the practice of cash bail, or making people pay to avoid pre-trial imprisonment. The group uses donations to pay bail fees in Minneapolis.
Biden campaign spokesman Andrew Bates said in a statement to Reuters that the former vice president opposes the institution of cash bail as a “modern day debtors prison.”
Biden’s campaign staff, in their Twitter posts, called attention to U.S. inequities based on race and income. “It is up to everyone to fight injustice,” Colleen May, who identified herself as an campaign organizer for Biden in South Carolina, Wisconsin and Florida, said in a Twitter post that included an image of her receipt from donating $50 to the Minnesota Freedom Fund.

Lawlessness is the cornerstone of the Democrat party
“ But, they say the rioter trouble makers are white nationalists.
Funny they would bail them out.”
Exactly. Bump
Dementia Joe’s staff acting on their inner Palestinian Authority instincts. Giving money to people who commit acts of terrorism.
From Reuters...UNBELIEVABLE!
BIDEN SUPPORTS WHITE SUPREMACISTS
So much in fact he posts their bail.
Ukraine Joe has to take care of his extremist/violent base from his bunker. The democrats have escalated this & totally own it.
Those f*ckin a*^holes are burning my city! WTF
Soros beat Trump like a drum.
Trump made two yuge mistakes:
Allowing the lockdown and doing nothing to stop the burning of the cities.
Just one more angle on the Democrat/DeepState coup on this country.
Why would Biden’s campaign want to post bail for a bunch of white supremicists? At least that’s what leftists claim the rioters are.
“Soros beat Trump like a drum.

Bull. It is hindsight to say there shouldn’t have been a lock down when no one at the time knew diddly squat about the dangers of this virus, and our gov’t as well as all others in affected countries were overwhelmed. We (thanks Obama) had no stockpiles of PPE, the hospitals were being slammed, and we initially had to buy some time. Hence Trump like all other country leaders except Sweden,shut down.
Trump would have been vilified from now to kingdom come if he had done otherwise at the time. But he wanted a short shutdown; unfortunately until he caught on to the supposed “experts”, he was under their sway. Now we all know better that the “experts” didn’t know what the heck they were talking about. He isn’t accommodating now and wants the entire country to open up. No one factored in how corrupt leaders in blue states would prolong opening back up because their Trump hatred “trumps” consideration for their own State citizens, as they will stoop to any means to get rid of Trump.
As to burning cities, Trump can’t send in the military (posse comitatus); however has a workaround of using MP’s (military police) that is legal if the States request them to come in, which so far hasn’t happened. Depends on how State National Guard/Police do tonight.
Cut Trump some slack here. He is once again fighting 2 battles (the virus, and the riots) while being under constant attack for any measures he may take by the corrupt MSM/Dems/Facsist/Commie/Pinko/Socialist/Anarchist slime. All while they tried to overthrow his Admin in a coup, while attempting to have him impeached.
This man has nerves of steel to be able to cope with all of the garbage that has been thrown at him. Ironman. A force of nature, and thank goodness we have him as President, especially when you ponder the alternatives. Lay off of him, he has enough problems without having his supposed allies sniping at him as well.
The anti-Biden ads just write themselves.
I have no evidence that the Biden campaign is colluding with Antifa or whoever is organizing the riots, but it wouldn’t surprise me if eventually we found out that was the case. Of course the Democrats may reason as they did in 2016: if they win the election, nothing that they do to beat Trump will become public knowledge, let alone punished.
This can become a great campaign ad for Trump.

It’s their money. Nothing wrong with posting bail for someone. The judge sets the bail, so if he really wants the defendant to show up he can require a bail bond, which makes the defendant liable for the full amount of the bond if he skips town, and possibly require a guarantor or assets in security.
If this is Soros beating Trump, I’ll take more of it. The Democracts totally own these race-baiting riots. Trump is letting all of America see fascists at work, and they aren’t liking what they see. He is the only one taking action - the lefty Governors are either endorsing the disorder, if not overtly than tacitly.
Pray tell, exactly how did Soros “beat” Trump? You fail to elaborate, but declare it as de righeur point of fact.
A modified version was included in the Biden-Thurmond Violent Crime Control Act of 1991 which was later included
in Bill Clinton's controversial 1994 crime bill which Hilary vociferously endorsed, deriding Blacks as "super-predators" in her comments.
When will they introduce Sharia law as the law of Minneapolistan and then of Minnesotastan?
