Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey Sparks Major Social Media Uproar After Posting a Disgusting Message Honoring GEORGE FLOYD on Memorial Day

The mayor who presided over one of the worst race riots in U.S. history infuriated Americans across the country by deciding to honor the person centered on them instead of American veterans.

As TGP readers know, the city of Minneapolis nearly burned to the ground back in the Summer of 2020 following the death of a troubled individual named George Floyd. A video emerged showing the moment police officers, including Derek Chauvin, knelt on Floyd while he screamed: “I can’t breathe.”

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey sat around and did NOTHING to stop the torching of businesses and assaults on the police. But he did find time to cry at Floyd’s funeral.

On Memorial Day, Frey decided to reopen old wounds and issue this tone-deaf and despicable message paying tribute to Floyd instead of our military heroes.

“Today, we remember George Floyd, who was murdered by a former Minneapolis police officer six years ago,” he wrote on X.

“That moment changed our city forever.”

Frey then went full-on woke, bragging about how Minneapolis has changed in terms of race, policing, and other measures. Most would argue that the changes have been for the worse.

“It forced Minneapolis to confront painful truths about race, policing, inequity, and trust — and demanded hard conversations and accountability,” Frey said. “Since Floyd’s murder, our city has been challenged not just to say we’ve changed, but to prove it.”

Frey closed by claiming that the wounds from Floyd’s death remain after six years, and vowed to continue his ‘work’ in moving Minneapolis ‘forward.’

“The weight of what happened is still with our city six years later – and the responsibility to keep moving forward together is too,” Frey wrote. “I know we can keep building a Minneapolis that is safer, more accountable, and more worthy of the people who call it home.”

Today we remember the veterans who gave the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our freedoms.

Not drug addicts who overdosed.

Social media users were livid over Frey’s repulsive tweet, which disrespected our veterans. They unleashed on the woke mayor in quite harsh terms.

It changed your city, state and my country for the worse. Rioters on your side killed people and did billions in economic damage. And for what? Defunding police policies that have led to more people being killed.

It was sad he died, but it was from a drug overdose and railroading an innocent man didn’t bring him back. You wept at his coffin while your city burned

This is what happens when a once-American city is captured and Islamized: They erase Memorial Day and celebrate a fentanyl criminal who helped burn the nation down instead.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey spent today honoring George Floyd, not the American heroes who died defending… https://t.co/aS4HJXJA9A

Today is Memorial Day for the brave men & women who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom, not memorial day for criminal drug addicts who sparked some of the most destructive race riots and racist policy decisions of our lifetime
