A Minneapolis police officer was swiftly fired and charged with murder after bystander video showed him pressing his knee into George Floyd’s neck, ignoring the Black man’s cries that he couldn’t breathe. But even with that powerful footage, legal experts say the case isn’t a slam dunk.

Washington DC -- Journalists are praising Joe Biden after he announced that every bomb he drops in the Middle East from now on will be purchased from a black-owned business.

Gotta bomb 'em!" "But we're gonna purchase all our future bombs from some clean, articulate black business owners who make bombs. It's just the right thing to do," he continued.
