BREAKING: DOJ probe finds that Louisville Police called Black citizens "monkeys," "animal," and "boy." Federal investigators found a pattern of unconstitutional behavior. nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
"Breonna Taylor was a symptom of problems that we have had for years," one LMPD leader told federal investigators. nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
"For years, LMPD has practiced an aggressive style of policing that it deploys selectively, especially against Black people, but also against vulnerable people throughout the city." nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
"The investigators did not find the comments 'unequivocally racially insensitive or offensive,' relying on the officer’s 'passionate declaration' that she was not racist." Image
"LMPD investigators did not examine whether the officer’s threat to treat a young Black man 'like a fucking animal' reflected racial prejudice." Image
The extremist Three Percenters, a Louisville Police planning document stated, "want to help us" and are "patriotic citizens who love their country, their freedoms, and their liberty.” Image

Tucker: "To this day, there is dispute over how Chansley got into the Capitol building."

False. You can literally see QAnon Shaman entering in footage he aired moments earlier. He wasn't snuck in some back door, he came in moments after the door was kicked in.
Tucker is lying. Here is Jacob Chansley entering the Capitol less than 40 seconds after the breach. There is no dispute. ia902307.us.archive.org/10/items/Cwxj9…
Also the “someone” who opened the door, as Tucker Carlson referred to him, is an anti-abortion extremism who purported to respect the sanctity of life until he (allegedly) plotted to kill a FBI agent following his Jan. 6 arrest. #Parasnooper

Retired New Jersey State Trooper Michael Daniele arrested for doing this on Jan. 6.

He told the FBI he was "looking for a bathroom."
"Images of the individual were shared online with the hashtag #MFInvadesCapitol. The individual was identified by the NJSP detective as retired New Jersey State Trooper Michael DANIELE." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
*Record Scratch*

*Freeze Frame*

Yep, that's Michael Daniele alright.

You're probably wondering how the former New Jersey State Trooper got here, surrounded by a mob of Proud Boys as the brother of a Secret Service agent climbs the scaffolding...

Well, in 2004, Mark Zuck...
