1) From ABC News, I’m Daria
Albinger. Police in Louisville, Kentucky, are telling protestors downtown
to disperse. “__ state law this unlawful assembly, and we commend all personas __.”
Demonstrators have been underway for hours after officials announced grand jury
decision not to indict police officers on charges directly related to the death
of Breonna Taylor. The only charges three counts of wanton engagement
against fired officer Brett Hankison for shooting into a neighbor’s
apartment. Protestor Mary Fray says she’s discouraged, “In my heart it doesn’t feel
like there is any justice for Breonna, not because they’ve never brought up any
murder charges. There are those two officers, they’re still on paid Medicare
and I believe nothing is being brought up against them.” Mayor Greg Fisher
says an internal police review is still underway. “LMPD is conducting a professional standard unit investigation to
determine if any policies or procedures were violated by officers involved in
the case. The chief of police will use that report to determine if any officers
need further training or discipline.” A county-wide curfew will take effect
9:00 p.m.

House cabinet room, “It’s very important that we have nine justices.” President
Trump meaning state attorney’s general discussing law and order and voting
rules, and his unproven claim. There will be widespread mailing voter fraud. “I
think this will end up in the Supreme Court.” If it does, the post-election
