I’ve tried and tried and tried to hammer this in to Libs; It wasn’t Trump who sent the US Army in to my city to crush democratic organizing and political unrest, to protect a white cop and uphold white supremacy, to hold the population at gunpoint while the deeply corrupt and illegitimate judiciary did it’s thing.

It was Tim Walz.

He deployed thousands of US Army soldiers throughout Minneapolis in the days surrounding the reading of the verdict of one of the George Floyd murder cases. If the judiciary let that cop walk free he was going to maintain order no matter how many (black) people he had to murder to do it. I was trying to reassure my friends that the feds probably hadn’t issued ammunition to all the National Guard pukes marching through the streets, that the armored cars didn’t actually have machine guns fitted, but idk what the fuck they would have done if people had risen up in the aftermath if what’s his ass had been allowed to walk. I assume they brought in a military occupation because they intended to use it.
