Earlier today, a video circulated online revealing the tragic death of George Floyd where a police officer kneeled on his neck for ten minutes while Floyd yelled he couldn’t breathe in Minneapolis. Another clip showed a different angle where three more officers were on top of Floyd’s body and restrained him as he suffered the last few moments of his life. However, President Donald Trump decided he had more things to worry about such as the election ballots.

HU Staff: Kecia Gayle @kecia.kae NSFW: Shocked, heartbroken, and furious. Those are just some of the words to describe many people who came across the disturbing video showing a white Minneapolis police officer pinning a black man to the ground with his knees moments before he loses consciousness and dies. ______________________________________________________________ The clip was taken by a bystander in south Minneapolis on Monday. Apparently, cops were responding to a “forgery in progress” when they arrived at the scene and saw the unidentified man sitting in a car. According to the Department, the man resisted arrest so he was placed in handcuffs, adding “he appeared to be suffering medical distress.” The Department also noted that “At no time were weapons of any type used by anyone involved in this incident.” ______________________________________________________________ In the now-viral clip, you could hear the man begging, “Please. Please, I cannot breathe,” repeatedly to the cops. The arresting officer continues to kneel on the man’s neck for several minutes and ignores the man as he moans in pain. The other officers on the scene also ignores the man. But a passerby can be heard yelling, “That’s bulls***, bro. You’re stopping his breathing right there, bro. Get him off the ground, bro,” adding the officer was “enjoying it.” Several other witnesses are then heard arguing with the two arresting officers over their excessive use of force. Sadly, the man becomes motionless. An ambulance eventually shows up and the man is taken to a hospital where he was later pronounced dead. ______________________________________________________________ Read more at hollywoodunlocked.com 📸: Photo Credit: Facebook ______________________________________________________________ If you have a tip or suggestion, or want to talk to us about this story, Text the word “TIP” to 1-310-388-6463!

Since Twitter flagged his tweets for misleading information, Trump claimed the platform is not allowing free speech. He says “@Twitter is now interfering in the 2020 Presidential Election. They are saying my statement on Mail-In Ballots, which will lead to massive corruption and fraud, is incorrect, based on fact-checking by Fake News CNN and the Amazon Washington Post…. ….Twitter is completely stifling FREE SPEECH, and I, as President, will not allow it to happen!”
