Trump Announces He is Sending Reinforcements to Wisconsin
President Trump has announced that he will be sending federal law enforcement officers and the national guard to Wisconsin to restore order in the burning city of Kenosha.
According to Fox News:
The president’s tweets come after 29-year-old Jacob Blake, a Black man, was shot at close range in the back by city police officers, leaving him partially paralyzed.
New footage emerged Tuesday of the moments before Blake was shot multiple times by a White Wisconsin police officer as Blake tried to get into his vehicle. The video reportedly captured Blake engaged in a struggle with at least two Kenosha police officers, and shows an officer appearing to try to restrain him before he manages to get up and walks to the driver’s side door, the clip shows.
Viral video taken from another vantage point shows an officer pump several rounds into the apparently unarmed man’s back.
Trump campaign communications manager Tim Murtaugh during call Wednesday called Blake’s shooting “very troubling.”
Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers (D) doubling the size of the National Guard contingent he refused a White House offer for federal support on Tuesday.
