Elon Musk @elonmusk Follow Derek Chauvin was unjustly convicted of murder, therefore he should be freed. The facts show that he was not the cause of death, nor did he at any time intend for a death to occur. Whatever else he may be, he is not a murderer. That is the truth.

Pardoned Nazi January 6 runamok Jake Lang and phony Christian pastor Lorenzo Sewell led a horde of Islamomisists on a "Christian Crusader March" on a Dearborn City Council meeting, barking that their mob would "not surrender to Islam" nor the "Islamification of America."

CNN's Kasie Hunt reported on the moment during Wednesday's edition of The Arena, explaining, "The president's schedule initially said he was participating in a policy meeting during that time.
