Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz says anything is “possible with this presidency” in reference to Derek Chauvin being pardoned.
This comes as rumors are growing that a pardon is coming, as soon as next week.
Chauvin, already convicted for George Floyd’s murder, also faces a separate federal civil rights conviction.
The pardon might be close.
If so, will we see some serious riots?

Officers are literally trained to use their knee as Chauvin did.
BREAKING: Sgt who is trained in BJJ and trains officers in those tactics testifying. Defense asks “Officers are trained to put a knee in the shoulder blade to the base of the neck?”

I strongly support Derek Chauvin being pardoned and released from prison.

People reports:
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is addressing rumors that Derek Chauvin, the former police officer convicted of killing George Floyd, will receive a presidential pardon for his separate federal conviction of violating Floyd’s civil rights.
Speculation has been growing recently about President Donald Trump possibly pardoning Chauvin, though the president denied those rumors in March, telling reporters, “No, I haven’t even heard about it,” the Minnesota Star Tribune reported.
Walz told reporters this week that, while he does not believe a pardon is imminent, it is possible “with this presidency.”
“So, no indication whether they’re going to do it or not, but I think it behooves us to be prepared for it. With this presidency, it seems like that might be something they would do,” he said, per the Tribune and KTTC.
Walz, who was the Democratic nominee for vice president in the 2024 presidential election, noted that if Chauvin’s federal conviction is pardoned, he will still have to serve the remainder of his 22-and-a-half-year state prison sentence.
Minneapolis Community Safety Commissioner Toddrick Barnette echoed Walz’s sentiment about Chauvin remaining behind bars even if he does get pardoned and addressed possible civil unrest, the Tribune reported.
Local ABC News adds:
Sources also said the city of Minneapolis is almost certain that next week, the U.S. Department of Justice will file a petition with the court to end the consent decree over reform at MPD.
If that happens, sources said the city would file a brief challenging the DOJ’s filing, and it could then take up to six weeks to get a ruling from the judge.

Watch this lady’s face after she realizes she walked right into a trap.
It’s so easy to walk these people down a road that reveals their hypocrisy. It’s disgusting.

And there’s the autopsy report:

Floyd was 3 times the limit on Fentanyl, blockage in 75% of an artery…. no strangulation or bruises

Put all of these substances into your bloodstream, in the same amount noted.
If you survive, then we’ll talk about whether or not Derek Chauvin is at fault.

The fall out from the BLM riots must be righted.
It is not enough to pardon Derek Chauvin. BLM activist must be arrested and prosecuted for organizing mass riots, arson, vandalism and interracial murder. White Supremacy is not America’s biggest threat, Afrocentric Marxist domestic terrorism is. pic.twitter.com/LZi4znRPQl
