George Floyd’s brother Terrence stood alongside community leaders before a group of protestors in Minneapolis on Monday to send a powerful message: “Stop looting and throw up the peace sign.” George was killed in police custody last week when he was pinned down for more than 8 minutes as he gasped for air, fell unconscious, and then died.

“This family is a respectable family. This family is a peaceful family. And as much as outraged as you are, the family is too,” Reverend Kevin McCall, a Brooklyn-based civil rights leader. “But, you cannot come before the family, you cannot come before the victim. The family has called for peace, the family has called for peace, the family has called for peace, the family has called for peace.”

He added, “We’re sending a message to people all over this country to stop looting and throw up the peace sign. The power is in the numbers. Don’t stop protesting.”

Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich Fights Back DOJ Challenging Legal Citizenship Voter Law

Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich wrote a letter to the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division with one clear message: ‘We’ll see you in court.’

Biden’s DOJ is challenging an Arizona law aimed to protect its citizens by ensuring only citizens can vote in elections.

Brnovich makes mention of a letter he received from Kristen Clarke, Assistant Attorney General, dated June 27, 2022 “expressing your intent to challenge HB 2492, Arizona’s law that assures only citizens are able to vote in our elections.”

“Please be assured that I will defend this law to the U.S. Supreme our if necessary and defeat the federal government’s efforts to interfere with our state’s election safeguards, as I did last year in Brnovich v. DNC” the letter continued.

“It is curious, however, that the Department of Justice would use its resources to challenge a common sense law inn Arizona designed to guard against non-citizen voting, while the Biden Administration nis simultaneously opening our borders to encourage a flood of illegal immigration.”

“Is the federal government attempting to undermine our sovereignty and destabilize our election infrastructure?” Brnovich asks. “I hope that is not your intention.” The Arizona Attorney General concludes his letter by writing “I strongly urge you to reconsider your pursuit of this misguided suit and to instead recognize Arizona’s constitutional authority to conduct lawful and secure elections.”

After Biden invites millions to illegally enter our country, his DOJ is challenging Arizona’s law to ensure only citizens can vote.
