Trump and Democrats harden their stances after Minneapolis shooting
(Politico) Just hours after federal agents shot and killed a 37-year-old man in Minneapolis, Trump administration officials called the deceased a would-be assassin and blamed Democrats for siding with terrorists.
Democrats, meanwhile, renewed calls for Minnesota officials to investigate the shooting and characterized the presidents immigration actions as a campaign of organized brutality.
With few official details released on the latest shooting in Minneapolis, the White House and Democrats retreated to heated rhetoric in the immediate aftermath of Saturdays incident, with President Donald Trump accusing state officials of inciting Insurrection and Democrats accusing federal agents of murder.

See, it's not clear and both sides are just retreating to heated rhetoric. Don't believe your lying eyes; you didn't see what you saw. You didn't see government goons teargas and beat a man then shoot him in the back as he lay in the street. Or if you did, maybe it was OK because he was a terrorist. It could be one thing or another. Both sides.
And fuck you very much, Politico.
