>> Babbitt wasn't innocent

It is true she wasn't innocent. Neither was Floyd. But the crime was trivial, and didn't warrant her killing.

Look, you're immutable on this subject, as am I. I just don't see the point.

The difference between us on this is that I am not politically influenced. I don't give a damn whose party she's in, she was murdered. Same position I held on Floyd: Looked like a murder from the outset, but the evidence was insufficient, IMO, to warrant a conviction because while there might have been a preponderance, the evidence wasn't beyond a reasonable doubt. Which is what is required for a conviction for Floyd.

But in the Babbitt case, there is zero doubt that was a murder.

The incident is further compounded by the likelihood that Pelosi made the call to hide the identity of the cop and ultimately to see he wasn't charged.

This is on the Speaker of the House.
