close Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison on investigation in George Floyd's death
The son of Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison tweeted on Sunday that he is declaring his support for Antifa after President Trump said that his administration would be declaring it a "Terrorist Organization."
Jeremiah Ellison, who is a member of the Minneapolis City Council, noted in the tweet that he believes "white power" terrorists are actually the ones engaging in the looting, arson and other riot activities as violent sects hijack some of the protests against racial inequality and police brutality in the wake of the death of George Floyd last Monday.
"I hereby declare, officially, my support for ANTIFA," Ellison said. "Unless someone can prove to me ANTIFA is behind the burning of black and immigrant owned businesses in my ward, I’ll keep focusing on stopping the white power terrorist THE ARE ACTUALLY ATTACKING US!"
Floyd died in the custody of the Minneapolis Police Department after officials said officer Derek Chauvin used his knee to pin Floyd, who is black, to the ground by his neck for several minutes as Floyd begged for air. Chauvin was later charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz announced Sunday night that the Attorney General Ellison's office would lead the case against Chauvin.
"We are going to bring to bear all the resources necessary to achieve justice in this case," Ellison said in response.
Antifa is a far-left militant movement that calls itself "antifascist," and has no defined organizational hierarchy or membership process. Antifa demonstrators have been known to travel across state lines to engage in vandalism, looting and other forms of violence in places where there is civil unrest.

Mn is a well-heeleed Confederate state.
Begging for air? My understanding is if you can talk, then you are getting air. If not, then you would not have the breath to talk, beg, yell, speak, whatever. You need air to push out your words and chest and throat to make sounds. If you are speaking aren’t you getting air? Seems that way to me.
If you support them, doesn’t that make you one of them?
All BS as I thought. The suburbs aren’t a bunch of candy ass liberals quaking in their boots.
Come down my street and see what you get. Scumbags.
What do they think is “theirs?”
Now it’s our turn to organize and take them out!
“No Fly Lists’ still a thing?”
I’m waiting for a “No Breathe” list.
I wonder if he beats up his girlfriend, just like his father?
AG Ellison will ensure the charges gets dismissed against the police officer so the emotions can be ratcheted up and the riots continue.
Who’s surprised? It’s Minnesota. These people elected Omar, Ellison, and Mondale. They loved Obama and the Clintons.
Come November, they will vote for leftists again.
This is why any halfway decent person who likes liberty stays out of that leftist hole.
This isn’t shut down by Twitter?
P
wow, that state deserves what they get.
There is going to be a fight, lets get it started and over with.
Sayyyyy, isn’t Ellison a muslim?...
lol!
Elect liberals to office and watch your cities looted and burned.
Wow, what a great thing... Yutes can burn down and loot the neighborhood and blame white people for it. And it’d be racist to call them on their lies.
