  "textContent": "At the state convention Minnesota Republicans held a moment of silence for Derek Chauvan, who murdered George Floyd.\n\nThey are offended that white cops are not allowed to murder black men whenever they want.\n\n> The Minnesota Republican party’s decision to hold a moment of silence for Derek Chauvin, the former police officer convicted of murdering George Floyd, has angered the state’s attorney general – who was the lead prosecutor in the case.\n>\n> Keith Ellison, a Democrat, said Saturday’s gesture at the state Republicans’ annual convention in Duluth was “an act of profound cruelty” to Floyd’s family and “disrespectful” to Minnesota’s law enforcement personnel.\n>\n> “This decision dishonors the memory of George Floyd and wounds his loved ones all over again,” Ellison said in a statement.\n>\n> Alluding to how the murder had happened six years earlier almost exactly, Ellison added: “To honor the man convicted of murdering George Floyd – days after the very anniversary of that terrible day – is an act of profound cruelty to the Floyd family and to every Minnesotan who believes in accountability under law.\n\nThese are really truly awful people.\n\n\n",
