Large scale black lives matter demonstrations continue Sunday across the country. Concrete change to how police and law enforcement authorities are able to restrain and use force is already happening in some jurisdictions in the wake of George Floyd’s death at the hands of Minneapolis, Minn, police officers. The underlying tension between law enforcement and the black community has yet to be addressed at large. On Thursday, a memorial service for George Floyd at North Central University took place with attendees and speakers including Rev. Al Sharpton, Tiffany Haddish, Kevin Hart, T.I., Ludacris, and others. Members of George Floyd’s family thanked those in attendance and those speaking up for their support. On Wednesday, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison announced an upgrade to the charges against former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin from murder in the third degree to second degree murder, and announced aiding and abetting charges against the other police officers who were present at the death of George Floyd. » Subscribe to USA TODAY: http://bit.ly/1xa3XAh » Watch more on this and other topics from USA TODAY: https://bit.ly/2Xe8rwt » USA TODAY delivers current local and national news, sports, entertainment, finance, technology, and more through award-winning journalism, photos, videos and VR. #protests #georgefloyd #usatoday

Many eyes during the coronavirus pandemic are on the U.S. and how the Donald Trump administration respond to the COVID-19 crisis. Donald Trump appointed VP Mike Pence to lead a White House Coronavirus Task Force (that also includes Dr. Anthony Fauci and others), which holds daily press briefings with Donald Trump on coronavirus news and COVID-19 updates. A comment from President Donald Trump recently, in which he suggested ingesting disinfectant to treat COVID-19, has been criticized widely. Later, Donald Trump walked back his disinfectant coronavirus treatment statement, saying it was sarcasm. Still, that didn’t stop this Indian reporter from mocking President Trump on live television.
