Former Vice President and likely 2020 Democratic nominee for president Joe Biden sent a message to police officers when encountering an ‘unarmed’ person with “a knife or something” saying they should “shoot ’em in the leg, instead of the heart,” while visiting a historically black church in Wilmington, Deleware Monday.

Full quote: “Instead of standing there and teaching a cop when there’s an unarmed person comin’ at ’em with a knife or something to shoot ’em in the leg instead of the heart is a very different thing. There’s a lot of different things that could change.”

Here’s what some Twitter users reacted:

As a former cop this is the dumbest comment ever. A gun battle lasts 3 sec, all fine motor skills are gone. You shoot for center mass , there is no time for such insane targeting. ⁦@JoeBiden you should hit the street and show us how it’s done. ⁩https://t.co/wRzhI9cbGW

Biden’s comments come after the death of George Floyd, a black man who died in police custody. In a viral video, a Minneapolis police officer was seen with his leg on Floyd’s neck for minutes while Floyd repeatedly told him he couldn’t breathe before eventually dying of asphyxiation.

In the week that’s followed Floyd’s death, many cities across the country have seen violent riots, looting, and buildings set ablaze. On Monday, the President instructed governors to crack down on the violence by bringing in the National Guard to curb it.

Search Warrants Served at AZ Nonprofit in Connection to 2020 ‘Ballot Trafficking Election Scandal’

Search warrants were served to an employee at a Yuma, Arizona nonprofit organization in connection to illegal ballot trafficking.

The ballot trafficking scheme was investigated in True The Vote and Dinesh D’Souza’s recent documentary “2000 Mules.” The documentary makes the claim that the 2020 Presidential Election was stolen by illegal ballot trafficking done through nonprofit organizations.

The ballot trafficking scheme was discovered by residents in Yuma County, and the documentary features the undercover investigative work of David Lara and Arizona State Senate candidate Gary Snyder as well as the investigations of Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips.

“18 months ago, we knew that when the full story was told about Yuma County, Arizona, it would reveal systematic, systemic, ballot trafficking, with connections that spread nationwide. It’s now happening, thankfully with law enforcement fully engaged. Much more remains to be revealed in the days ahead,” said Catherine Engelbrecht to the Gateway Pundit.

Sources tell The Gateway Pundit a group from Phoenix with the Attorney General’s office executed the search warrants. Additionally, The Gateway Pundit reports:

The nonprofit facilities were not raided. However, Tony Reyes, the Executive Director of Comité de Bien Estar, confirmed to The Gateway Pundit that Comité de Bien Estar’s Membership Coordinator, Gloria Torres received search warrants at the nonprofit office, and law enforcement is looking for evidence of voter fraud in the 2020 Presidential Election.

“That 2000 Mule Documentary is starting to permeate all throughout this process,” said Reyes.He then confirmed that officers showed up to the office, “confiscated her phone, and basically went to her house.”

Tony Reyes is also the current Chairman of the Yuma County Board of Supervisors and they run the elections in Yuma County.

Gloria Torres is a current San Luis City Council Member and Gadsden Elementary School District Board member who faced a recall effort last year stemming from her political ties to Gadsden Elementary School Board member Guillermina Fuentes.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Fuentes, who serves on the San Luis School District Board, was indicted with four class four felonies of Forgery and Conspiracy and ballot abuse in the 2020 Elections.
