	Five years ago today, America and the world changed.
	And I think you know why.
	Five years ago today, on May the 25th, 2020, George Floyd died of an overdose while in police custody, and that was extrapolated and twisted into some type of an indictment.
	Figurative and actual, against a police officer who was doing his job.
	And George Floyd, the putatively martyred Floyd, who his death in Minneapolis was twisted into a grotesque spectacle that became one of the most egregious and horrible miscarriages of justice in modern American history.
	When you have Derek Chauvin, this 19-year veteran of the Minneapolis Police Department, who acted the way he was trained, the knee wasn't some kind of a weird medieval torture.
	This was pursuant to his training.
	If anybody should be brought into account, it's the people who trained him to do it.
	He was following orders.
	And he became the primary victim.
	Mr. Chauvin was a cop doing his job under pressure, and he was railroaded, absolutely railroaded by a System 2 cop.
	And if you think I'm exaggerating, you're not paying attention.
	The evidence was clear.
	Floyd died of a fentanyl overdose, not Officer Chauvin's actions, but the trial was a sham tainted by a spineless judge, Peter Cahill, who feared the wrath of the woke crowd more than he valued justice.
	Floyd had 11 nanograms per mil of fentanyl in his system, well above lethal levels for most.
	As toxicologists like Dr. Daniel Eisenschmidt, that's an interesting name, Eisenschmidt, as Dr. Eisenschmidt have noted in similar cases, along with methamphetamine, a 75% blocked artery and a history of heart disease, all point to, if nothing else, Reasonable doubt.
	Reasonable doubt that the cause of death, the cause of death most probably was his own drug interactions and interventions and his own particular use of drugs.
	And that is a reasonable doubt.
	The Hennepin County Medical Examiner's report.
	Listen to this carefully.
	Their report even stated that if Floyd, if Floyd, listen to this, if Floyd had been found dead at home, it would have been ruled an overdose.
	That's reasonable doubt!
	Yet the autopsy was spun to call it homicide, blaming, quote, neck compression, neck compression, while downplaying the drugs, which is a conclusion that reeks of political pressure.
	Gee, imagine that, huh?
	Independent experts, and listen very carefully to this, independent experts.
	Like those cited by Chauvin's defense, argued repeatedly that the restraint wasn't lethal.
	Floyd was already in distress, saying, I can't breathe, before Chauvin's knee was even on him.
	Body cam footage showed this.
	It verifies this.
	That's reasonable doubt.
	There was more than reasonable doubt.
	There was a mountain of it.
	But the trial was a farce.
	The trial was a complete and total joke, poisoned by a media frenzy, and the public already whipped into some kind of frothing frenzy in a fury by the viral video, which they didn't understand, which conveniently, by the way, left out the full context of Floyd's erratic behavior and resistance.
	The exploitation of Floyd's death, the absolute masterful exploitation of Floyd's death, was a...
	A travesty that fueled the rise of Black Lives Matter and Antifa.
	Remember that?
	Groups that thrived and fed on chaos while raking in millions.
	BLM alone raised over $90 million in 2020, according to its own financial disclosures.
	Much of it unaccounted for.
	Much of it going to the president.
	But nobody cares.
	Did Joe Biden auto-pen that?
	Floyd was no hero.
	He was a career criminal with a rap sheet stretching back decades, including a 2007 armed robbery where he held a gun, listen to this, where he held a gun to a woman's pregnant stomach, or pregnant woman's stomach, or either way.
	Yet the left turned him into a saint.
	This apotheosis, this martyr.
	This martyr for their anti-police, anti-American agenda.
	Nancy Pelosi, draped in her performative kente cloth.
	Remember that?
	Alongside other congressional clowns.
	Handed Floyd's family a folded flag.
	A flag!
	An honor meant for true heroes.
	While thanking Floyd for, get this, sacrificing himself.
	Sacrificing.
	As if he chose to die for their cause, like on Memorial Day.
	The family got a $27 million settlement from Minneapolis.
	A payout.
	A payout that screams capitulation to the mob.
	Mobocracy.
	Oclocracy.
	Statues of Floyd went up.
	Murals painted.
	face plastered on every woke corporation's virtue-signaling ad campaign, all while They were exploited, per usual, by members of the black community, leaders.
	They were played like pawns, like fiddles, by race hustlers who cared more about power than progress.
	That happens all the time.
	And they ignored real black heroes like Clarence Thomas or Thomas Sowell.
	Who've actually fought for self-reliance and dignity.
	How about that?
	We can't have any of that.
	The fallout was catastrophic.
	Billions in damages from riots.
	We don't even know.
	There's no way to tell.
	How much?
	Business and damage from riots.
	Closed businesses, shops.
	People relocated.
	It changed everything.
	It tore through cities like Minneapolis where the destruction hit.
	$500 million alone.
	And much of it, you guessed it, in black neighborhoods.
	In black neighborhoods, the left claimed to champion.
	Antifa and other agitators, often cited by then Attorney General Bill Barr as key instigators, turned peaceful protests into war zones.
	They were never charged.
	They were never indicted.
	There were 14,000 arrests nationwide.
	Many for looting and arson.
	What does looting and arson have to do with making a statement as to your thoughts, as to racial inequality?
	No, seriously.
	When was the last time when a relative or a pet or somebody you know went, they died.
	You went looting and burned things, maybe in your own neighborhood.
	When?
	How does that work?
	How does auto-loot, this sense of, we're upset, let's loot, let's go to a liquor store and steal liquor and booze as a symbolic statement, I guess, of our collective wrath for this?
	Small businesses, already struggling, were burned to the ground, leaving black communities in ruins, while BLM leaders made out like bandits.
	Bought more mansions.
	Patrice Cullors snagged a $6 million estate, according to Fox News as they exposed in 2022.
	$6 million!
	The police, meanwhile, were demonized, defunded, and demoralized.
	Minneapolis slashed its police budget by $8 million in 2020.
	$8 million!
	Only to see crime spike.
	Homicides rose 50%.
	Real homicides, real murders, not overdoses camouflaged as homicides.
	Think about that.
	They rose 50% the next year.
	And Officer Chauvin, who was convicted of murder in 2021 and sentenced to 22 and a half years, was the scapegoat.
	A sacrificial lamb for a nation.
	Too scared.
	Too gutless.
	Too spineless.
	Too backboneless to admit the truth.
	And the jury, who was intimidated by a city on edge, National Guard troops were already deployed during the trial.
	Why?
	Nobody could believe.
	Nobody could believe what was happening.
	And nobody could possibly have delivered a fair verdict.
	Nobody.
	Nobody.
	And the judge knew this.
	Judge Cahill.
	Cowering under the threat of more riots, refused to sequester the jury.
	No way!
	Refused to sequester the jury properly or move the trial, ensuring that Chauvin never had a chance.
	Even, some would say, liberal voices like Alan Dershowitz called the trial a miscarriage, arguing that the verdict was tainted by external pressure.
	This, my friend, was a, as we say in the biz, a travesty of justice.
	Plain and simple.
	A pro-police, conservatives' nightmare in a country that lost its spine, its guts, its soul.
	And the woke left's narrative, amplified by this complicit kind of a state-owned proxy media, ignored the facts.
	Floyd's death was a tragedy of his own making.
	Exacerbated by a cop doing his job in a high-stress situation.
	Officer Chauvin's restraint technique was standard MPD training.
	As defense witness, Barry Broad testified.
	It wasn't some weird form of torture.
	This is what he was told to do.
	And the time he spent on Floyd's neck, nine minutes and 29 seconds, was within protocol for a resisting suspect who...
	All you have to do is just give in and give up.
	Period.
	The prosecution's experts, like Dr. Martin Tobin, claimed that Floyd died of asphyxia, but their testimony was cherry-picked.
	See?
	Ignoring the drugs and the health issues that were the real culprits.
	Okay?
	Remember, you're not going to get your expert witness fee if you don't say the right thing.
	I'm just saying.
	I'm just saying.
	See, the trial was a witch hunt.
	A show for the mob.
	And the black community was duped.
	Duped again into thinking this was their moment of triumph.
	When really, they were just pawns in a bigger game.
	Five years later, five years as of today, the scars remain.
	A divided nation, despite the triumph of President Trump, but a divided nation, a broken justice system, and a police force under siege all because, all because the truth was buried under the weight of a lie.
	Derek Chauvin deserved better.
	America deserved better.
	We deserve better.
	So today, when you talk about five years ago, you remember what happened.
	You remember what happened.
	And the travesty of justice, that was the product.
