The charges/the verdicts in the Chauvin case:
2nd degree manslaughter -up to 10 yrs-GUILTY
2nd degree unintentional murder-up to 40 yrs-GUILTY
3rd degree murder -up to 25 yrs-GUILTY
Take Chauvin away in handcuffs.
Eight weeks from now is scheduling for sentencing.
May Chauvin never see the light of day ever again. Off to jail. Lots of emotion flying in Minneapolis, across America and around the world.

President Biden says “such a verdict is much too rare. He cited “a brave young woman with a cell phone camera, a murder that happened for almost 10 minutes in broad daylight.”
Biden says people of color should not have to “wake up knowing that they can lose their very life in the course of just living their life.” He is urging meaningful police reform legislation in George Floyd’s name to be made into law as quickly as possible after one whole year.
President Biden spoke to the Floyd family today after the verdict. He told George Floyd’s young daughter Gianna, “Daddy did change the world.”

.@RepRaskin opens the 2nd day of Trump’s 2nd impeachment trial. He says “The Senate is sitting as a court of impeachment on the facts.” He is disparaging Trump’s lawyers’ defense that Trump was an innocent bystander. “The evidence will show that Trump was the incited in chief.”
Impeachment managers will be issuing warnings about the graphic nature of some of the videos that will be shown as evidence. Especially for teachers screening this historic hearing. Raskin refers to 1/6 as “A day that will live in disgrace”. He decried “insurrectionary justice.”
A most haunting line from Jamie Raskin’s opening marks, after he made a solid analogy about Trump being like a fire chief who helped ignite the fire, is this phrase referring to January 6: “a kaleidoscope of sadness and terror and violence.”

Impeachment 2.0 begins with a prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance. It is the court of impeachment. Hear ye, hear ye, it is the article of impeachment against Donald J Trump. Senator Leahy is acting as the chief judge. He is also a witness. And a juror.
Josh Hawley should be ousted as a juror. He is an inciter. And he can take Ted Cruz with him.
A vote is being taken on a new resolution on trial rules. Hawley, Lee, Rubio, Marshall, Rand Paul, Tuberville, Scott of Florida and Scott of South Carolina. Senator Hagerty of Tennessee, too. The resolution changes the timeline of the trial which will now go through every day.

“All of us here today do not want to see our election victory stolen by bold and radical left Democrats, which is what they are doing, and stolen by the fake news media. That is what they have done and what they are doing. We will never give up. We will never concede.
It doesn’t happen. You don’t concede when there’s theft involved….Now it is up to Congress to confront this egregious assault on our democracy. And after this, we’re going to walk down, and I’ll be there with you…. We’re going to walk down to the Capitol...
and we’re going to cheer@on our brave senators and congressmen and women, and we’re probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them. Because you’ll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength and you have to be strong...
