MINNEAPOLIS UPDATE: President Trump Says Military Available to Stop Looting, Restore Peace

posted by Hannity Staff - 5.30.20

President Trump offered to send in the National Guard and US Military Friday to restore calm after three days of rioting rocked Minneapolis, Minnesota following the death of George Floyd while in police custody.

 

“I can’t stand back & watch this happen to a great American City, Minneapolis. A total lack of leadership. Either the very weak Radical Left Mayor, Jacob Frey, get his act together and bring the City under control, or I will send in the National Guard & get the job done right….. These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won’t let that happen. Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!” posted the President on Twitter.

KERIK on HANNITY: George Floyd’s Arrest ‘Defies Logic, Common Sense, Training, Police Procedure’

posted by Hannity Staff - 5.28.20

Former Commissioner of the NYPD Bernie Kerik stopped-by ‘Hannity’ Wednesday night to weigh-in on the death of Minneapolis resident George Floyd; saying his arrest “defies logic, common sense, training, and police procedure.”

“I’m looking at this, you know how sensitive the neck area is, he’s not resisting, why would they keep their knee on his neck for six minutes or more?” asked Hannity.

“Nobody has the answer because it defies logic, common sense, training, and police procedures. There was no resistance… How did he get there? Why did he get there? The guys crying out that he can’t breath,” said Kerik. “This case, this is atrocious. This was an abusive use of force, it was a killing of someone who should not have died.”

BILL DENIES IT! De Blasio Claims He ‘Wasn’t Informed’ of His Own Official’s Rebuke of NYPD

posted by Hannity Staff - 5.17.20

UPDATE:

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio denied Friday knowledge that a senior health official in his own administration rejected a request from the NYPD for face masks during the pandemic; telling reporters “I don’t know why I wasn’t informed but I wasn’t informed.”

“I’ve talked to Chief Monahan and I will be speaking to Commissioner Barbot this weekend,” the mayor said.

“I’ve been speaking with the commissioner constantly throughout this and I remind you we have a team of health care leaders and I’m speaking to any number of them each and every day,” he added. “A couple days ago was the last time I talked to the commissioner, and again we’re going to have a more detailed discussion this weekend. This has been going on for months now, we’ve all been communicating constantly.”

Original Story:

A backlash grew in New York City this week after the Health Commissioner reportedly shot-down a request from the NYPD for face masks; allegedly telling the police department “I don’t give two rats a**es about your cops.”

“Dr. Oxiris Barbot made the heartless remark during a brief phone conversation in late March with NYPD Chief of Department Terence Monahan, sources familiar with the matter said Wednesday,” reports the New York Post.

“I don’t give two rats’ a**es about your cops,” Barbot said, according to sources. “I need them for others.”

“What I find disturbing is that this conversation happened two months ago, that the mayor himself was made aware of it and nothing was done,” said the President of the Sergeants Benevolent Association.

“I need to understand what happened here, it does need to be addressed,” de Blasio said. “If it is accurate, the commissioner needs to apologize to the men and women of the NYPD.”
