New video of the prelude to the killing of George Floyd by fired Minneapolis police officers emerged on Saturday, and it adds to the growing realization that the official narrative we’ve been fed about that murder simply no longer adds up.
The video shows the police officers involved in the killing working Floyd over in the backseat of their police vehicle, apparently softening him up before they dragged him out onto the street pavement where they finished the job in front of a crowd that they had to know would capture the incident on their cell phones. Take a look at the second clip below:

In that clip, you can see one cop on the near side of the car scuffling with Floyd as Derek Chauvin – who was arrested and charged with 3rd degree murder on Friday – begins to pull him out on the far side of the vehicle.
So, how does this conflict with the official narrative? Well, to this point we have been told Floyd did not resist and that there was no reason for Chauvin to restrain him by pressing his knee on the back of his neck for more than 8 minutes, until Floyd died.
This video shows one of two possibilities here: Either Floyd was indeed resisting arrest, or he was being brutalized by the cops. One or the other has to be the case here. The first possibility would give the cops some mitigating arguments to the murder charge, though it certainly would not excuse them entirely. That is, unless the reason why Floyd was putting up a fight was because he realized he was about to be killed.
The second possibility raises the potential that this was indeed an act of premeditated murder.
We have no way of knowing which scenario is the correct one. But the long records of complaints and lawsuits brought against at least two of these cops, and the fact that Chauvin and Floyd had actually worked security at a local night club together for several years sure does add to the suspicion that this was not just some random act.
Think about it: The Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area has a population of roughly 3.6 million people. The thought that this high-profile killing involving two men who worked together and likely knew each other is mere coincidence strains credulity to the breaking point.
Up until now, the assumption has been that this killing was just the random spark that lit the flame to the series of national riots that the Democrats/Soros/BLM/Antifa crew were planning to launch this summer anyway. But with all of the odd facts now surrounding this killing, combined with the obviously-orchestrated nature of the riots, you have to wonder if Floyd’s murder was a random event at all.
I have made it a personal practice to stay away from talk about “false flags” that fly around social media in reaction to high-profile events such as this one. But boy, the official narrative around this particular high-profile event is beginning to fall completely apart.
No doubt, many will react by saying there is no way even the Democrats would resort to something so destructive to our national fabric. But ask yourself this: in 2016, would you have believed it if someone told you that the Democrats and the national news media were about to mount a four-year effort push the Russia hoax? Or that they would expand that hoax into an active coup d’etat effort on American soil? Or that, when all of that failed to work, they would hold the nation captive for five months with a completely made-up impeachment hoax? Or that Democrat governors and mayors would intentionally keep people out of work and kill thousands of businesses in their states and cities for no good reason simply to try to impact the November elections?
Sadly, with today’s Democrats and their corrupt media toadies, literally anything is possible.
Stay tuned.
That is all.
According to the charging documents quoted by the NYTimes.
“At 8:19, Mr. Chauvin pulled Mr. Floyd out of the passenger side of the squad car. Mr. Floyd hit the ground, face down, handcuffs still on. Mr. Kueng held Mr. Floyd’s back while Officer Thomas Lane held his legs.”
At 8:24 p.m., Mr. Floyd stopped moving.

Mr. Kueng checked Mr. Floyd’s right wrist for a pulse. “I couldn’t find one,” he said.
Still, none of the officers moved.
...”The medical examiner’s office listed the time of death as 9:25 p.m.”
“THAT is what I believe, also. The failure of the police to acknowledge the medical stress is the real fault in this.”
Given the coroner’s report, I have to agree. It wasn’t premediated and he didn’t suffocate him.
The part I don’t understand is in the first video near the end, all four policeman are huddled against the side of the car. It was like they were using the car as a shield against something. What?
The narrative is falling apart because the autopsy is not backing up death by asphyxiation. Even the local prosecutors said there is no evidence to back up that claim. Not the defense - the prosecution.
The drive bys will try to spike that bit of info as much as possible but if it’s true, it needs constant repetition. And beating a narrative to death is something they excel at doing.
They couldn’t have identified his medical stress symptoms thru th drunken/drug stupor he was in. People drunk and drugged often show symptoms of illness very similar.
For sure, if they pulled a cuffed man from the cruiser, then did what we saw on the viral video then it is mruder 1.
Oh and the lack of pulse check after the man was unresponsive, is probably the most damning of all. Even an off duty first responder was begging for a pulse check.
I think the only debate is what level of murder we are looking at, but rest assured, murder it was. By agents of the state, which should concern us all.
“The part I don’t understand is in the first video near the end, all four policeman are huddled against the side of the car. It was like they were using the car as a shield against something. What?“
I believe they were trying to block the view of citizen cameras from the sidewalk. Even Tao moves to obstruct the view.
I love cops and have several cops/sheriffs/troopers among my friends...this sort of crap sickens them.
The weirdest thing is the ambulance guys in bulet proof vests pulled up, threw him on a gurney, no CPR, and away they went lickity split.
Read the complaint/charges. Pay attention to page 2 and think about the new video that’s been released. He was in the damn squad car. He was put in the car from the driver’s side and then slid across the seat to be pulled out on the passenger side?
Yea I thought the ambulance people were odd as all get out.
Yea I would love to see which side he was put in from. Common sense says they would have put him in from the sidewalk side. Especially considering they walked him across the street prior to this.
POTUS first comment on this was justice would be served for Floyd. I believe Trump had all the footage and probably seen exactly what you describe. And if this is the case, we are looking at murder plain and simple.
Glad I’m not the only one who feels the same. Occam’s razer and all.
As I have said before, this really only matters in which murder level we are looking at, but murder it was

Perp high on dust.
Police were taking Floyd out of HIS vehicle.

Simple enough to sort out. If he was beaten the coroner will see evidence of it.
Clearly a struggle going on. Possibly trying to strap him in and he’s not cooperating. Always sure to get cops angry, especially if they are hot heads to begin with.
You forgot Pandemic.
