What else can he do?

Joe Biden said last night that George Floyd was murdered by systematic racism. It wasn’t simply Derek Chauvin who murdered him because he was motivated by racism and white supremacy. We are all complicit in the death of George Floyd and the Atlanta shooting. It was the structural, systematic and institutional racism of the entire Minneapolis Police Department.

The Week:

“The Department of Justice has opened a civil investigation into the Minneapolis Police Department, Attorney General Merrick Garland announced Wednesday in the wake of former officer Derek Chauvin’s murder conviction.

Garland said the DOJ’s investigation will focus on whether the Minneapolis Police Department “engages in a pattern or practice of unconstitutional or unlawful policing.” His announcement came after Chauvin, a former Minneapolis police officer, was convicted on charges of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter in the killing of George Floyd after kneeling on Floyd’s neck for more than nine minutes during his arrest in May 2020.

“Yesterday’s verdict in the state criminal trial does not address potentially systemic policing issues in Minneapolis,” Garland said. …”

The definition of “justice” itself is being redefined here.

Woke progressives have abandoned equal justice in favor of social justice.
