manhunt is currently underway (...) a man pretending to be a police officer (...) white man with brown hair wearing black body armor over a blue shirt and blue pants.

So the suspect description is basically a white cop

Lmao

    law enforcement officials say they made a proactive check at Rep. Hortman's home after a lawmaker who lived nearby was shot and found a "police vehicle in the driveway with emergency lights and what appeared to be a police officer at the door coming out of the house." He was actually the gunman.

    Just remember the ONLY Reason Republicans are LITERALLY MURDERING DEMOCRATS is Because we're being TOO violent with Them and TOO crazy with our Playbook! If we just show them RESPECT they'll STOP breaking into our homes with hammers! I mean setting our Offices on Fire! I mean Running us Off the Road! I mean Murdering us in our Homes!

    They're trying to use it as an excuse to cancel the No Kings protests now.
