George Floyd’s death at the hands of Minneapolis police has sparked protests not only throughout the U.S., but around the world.
Floyd was killed on May 25 when former cop Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for nearly nine minutes. Since then, thousands of demonstrators have banded together to fight against racism and injustice while honoring the Black men and women who have lost their lives to police violence.
Below, we’ve gathered 32 powerful, provocative and heart-wrenching signs from the demonstrations.
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — SpaceX successfully launched a new batch of 60 Starlink internet satellites into orbit late Wednesday (June 3) and nailed a rocket landing at sea to top off the mission.Â
The launch is the second in five days for the California-based rocket builder. On Saturday (May 30), a different Falcon 9 rocket sent NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley toward the International Space Station aboard a Crew Dragon capsule, kicking of SpaceX’s landmark Demo-2 mission. The duo docked with the orbiting lab about 19 hours later and will remain there from one to four months.Â
In stark contrast to Saturday’s shiny new booster, today’s mission featured a veteran member of SpaceX’s rocket fleet. The extra-sooty Falcon 9 — whose first stage had already flown four times before today’s mission — lifted off at 9:25 p.m. EDT (0125 GMT on June 4) from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station here in Florida, its white exterior scorched by its previous trips through the atmosphere.Â
The rocket featured in today’s flight is the second Falcon 9 first stage to fly five times. The booster previously launched two other Starlink missions as well as a batch of Iridium NEXT satellites and a Canadian communications satellite.Â
SpaceX’s first attempt to fly a booster five times did not go as smoothly. That first stage, which launched 60 Starlink satellites this past March, experienced an engine anomaly as it climbed into the sky. Though the satellites got to orbit as planned, the booster missed its landing on a droneship at sea and was destroyed.Â
An investigation into the incident revealed that some residual cleaning agent got trapped in the engine and caused the anomaly. Since then, SpaceX has changed its procedures.Â
Today’s rocket landing involved the droneship “Just Read the Instructions,” which finally saw some action after months of refurbishment. The ship, previously based on the West Coast, made the move to the East Coast last year. This is the first mission it was used for since the big move. That’s because SpaceX’s other and primary droneship, “Of Course I Still Love You,” was busy bringing the Demo-2 booster back to port. This is the first time that SpaceX has had both of its droneships operational in the same ocean.Â
Today’s flight is the eighth 60-satellite mission for SpaceX’s Starlink project, bringing the total number of satellites launched for the nascent broadband network up to 482. (SpaceX launched two Starlink prototypes in February 2018.) The launch was originally scheduled to take off in mid-May but was postponed due to poor weather and schedule conflicts.Â
SpaceX has plans to build a constellation of Starlink satellites 12,000 strong. The project is designed to provide high-speed internet service to customers around the world, in particular those in remote areas.Â
SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk has said that at least 400 Starlink craft are needed before SpaceX can begin to roll out minimal internet coverage, and the company requires at least 800 satellites to provide moderate coverage. That service could start later this year.Â
Thanks to the sheer number of satellites in orbit, SpaceX is operating the largest satellite fleet ever. Ever since its first launch, the company has come under fire from astronomers and scientists around the world over concerns that the constellation’s apparent brightness will disrupt astronomical observations.Â

To that end, SpaceX has been experimenting with different ways of reducing the satellites’ brightness. Musk and SpaceX have said that they will be adding special sunshades to future Starlink satellites. These will act as a visor of sorts that limits the craft’s reflectivity. The first such visor-equipped Starlink craft took flight on today’s mission, SpaceX representatives said.
According to a report in SpaceNews, Patricia Cooper, SpaceX’s vice president of satellite government relations, said the sunshades will be added to all future satellites after the final 80 of the current design have launched.Â
For this launch, SpaceX continued its efforts to recover more of the rocket. The company deployed its two boats that are designed to catch falling payload fairings — GO Ms. Tree and GO Ms. Chief.Â
Acting as mobile catcher’s mitts, the twin vessels are outfitted with giant nets that the fairings will glide into. The fairings are clam-shelled coverings that protect payloads during liftoff. Historically, this hardware has been a “one-and-done” component.Â
Once a rocket reaches a certain point in its ascent, the two pieces that make up SpaceX fairings are jettisoned and fall back to Earth. Typically, these pieces are discarded in the ocean, never to be used again. But for SpaceX, which has now successfully recovered more than 50 first-stage boosters, they’re the next step in the company’s quest to reuse more of the rocket.Â
SpaceX could save as much as $6 million per flight by reusing fairings, Musk has said. So, the company has outfitted its fairings with a navigation system to steer each half back to Earth and a parachute to help it gently land in either the ocean or in the outstretched nets of the company’s recovery ships.Â
To date, SpaceX has recovered several fairings and reflown recycled fairing pieces three times.Â
Of those vessels, only GO Ms. Tree (the boat formerly known as Mr. Steven) has successfully snagged falling fairings. The ships recently received some new software upgrades, and today’s mission marked their first trip out sporting those upgrades.
But in order to get Starlink up and running, SpaceX needs to do more than just launch satellites. The company also needs user terminals — and it’s already working to make that happen. In March of this year, SpaceX was granted approval for up to one million user terminals as part of a blanket license.Â
The hardware will be simple enough that anyone can install it, according to Musk, who has said the terminals look like a “UFO on a stick.” The terminals will come with just two basic instructions — plug in and point at the sky — and are equipped with actuators that ensure they’re pointing where they should be at all times, Musk has said.
Following today’s successful liftoff, the veteran Falcon 9 booster landed on a floating platform at sea, marking the company’s 53rd successful recovery. SpaceX has two more flights on the docket for June: another batch of Starlink satellites as well as an upgraded GPS satellite for the U.S. Space Force.Â
A 100-year-old treaty is stoking tensions in Central Europe.
Hungary’s neighbors will be watching wearily on Thursday as Hungarians commemorate the 1920 Treaty of Trianon, a post-World War I agreement that saw the country lose most of its territory — including parts of what are now Croatia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia and Ukraine.
“The diktat saw two-thirds of the country’s territory and 63 percent of its population shorn from us; thus 1 in 3 Hungarians found themselves outside our borders. The verdict was obviously a death sentence,” Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said in his state of the nation address earlier this year.
Hungary is pulling out all the stops for the big day, with a special parliamentary debate, a flurry of commentary and new film set to air on state television. Budapest’s opposition mayor, Gergely Karácsony, has asked that all buses, trams and metro cars stop at 4:30 p.m. to observe a moment of silence.
“Romania has no reason to be worried about the regrets some are manifesting about the Treaty of Trianon.†— Valentin Naumescu, associate professor at BabeÅŸ-Bolyai University Cluj-Napoca
The commemoration comes at a tense time for the region, weeks after Romanian President Klaus Iohannis was fined by the country’s National Council for Combating Discrimination over comments regarding Romania’s Hungarian minority. The president had accused the rival Social Democratic Party of “fighting in secret offices in parliament to hand over Transylvania to the Hungarians.†He was fined 5,000 Romanian lei, or around €1,000, but described the fine as “profoundly political†and said he would appeal.
Last month, Orbán sparked controversy across the region by wishing high school students good luck with a history exam in a Facebook post featuring a map of historical Hungary.
“It is understandable and right that the recurring postings of maps which could be understood as an expression of territorial claims are met with rejection and concern by the democratic public and politics, including me as the president of the republic,” Slovenian President Borut Pahor told local media in response.
For many Hungarian speakers living in surrounding countries, June 4, 1920 is a defining moment in history.
“Given that this is the date when the Hungarian community of Transylvania became a minority, it is certainly not a day for celebration for us,†said Loránt Vincze, a member of the European Parliament representing the Democratic Alliance of Hungarians in Romania.
“This is the starting moment of a long period of redefining us, of trying to find new ways to survive and to succeed,” he told POLITICO.
While some of Hungary’s neighbors are now fellow EU and NATO members, the Treaty of Trianon remains among the most controversial and sensitive issues in the region’s politics, made all the more complex by Hungary’s alliance with Nazi Germany and attempts to reclaim the lost lands during World War II.
Over the past few years, tensions have simmered as Budapest raised concerns over the rights of Hungarian-speaking communities in Romania and Ukraine, while officials in surrounding countries looked on with discomfort as Orbán’s government poured large sums of money into Hungarian-speaking areas in neighboring states. Last year, the Hungarian government withdrew financial backing for a festival in Slovakia organized by a far-right group after its support for the event came under scrutiny.
Keeping the memory alive
Unlike some of his political rivals, Orbán grasped early on the power of Trianon in the popular imagination, even for people who were born decades after the treaty was signed. A survey conducted in 1991 across Europe found that Hungary, which had just become a democracy, had the largest majority of respondents claiming that pieces of neighboring countries belong to them — 68 percent.
Each year, the Hungarian leader’s most important political speech takes place not in Hungary, but in Romania. He often refers to the treaty — telling his supporters about a glorious past that was unfairly taken away.
A decade ago, Orbán’s ruling Fidesz party extended citizenship and voting rights to Hungarian-speakers in surrounding countries — who have become among the party’s most loyal voters. The Fidesz party’s delegation to the European Parliament currently includes one member from the Hungarian-speaking community in western Ukraine.

Hungary “has a constitutional responsibility toward Hungarians living abroad,” Vincze said. “This is not about turning back the clocks or questioning borders.”
He added, “What Hungary wants is a solid minority-majority relationship in each state, that creates the conditions for the Hungarian communities to flourish, doubled by a strong bilateral relationship with Slovakia, Romania, Serbia because that is again the way the Hungarian communities would benefit the most.”
But while Orbán has cultivated good ties with some regional leaders and avoided any talk of changing borders, some people close to Fidesz have hinted at such hopes.
“Both sides are exploiting ethnic issues for electoral gain,” said Romanian MEP Cristian Ghinea, who represents the Union to Save Romania.
“Iohannis used wording and a tone that were unprecedentedly aggressive,” Ghinea said. “But in my view the blame for the current tensions lies in Budapest. Orbán seeks to feed nostalgia and revanchism with his campaign around the Trianon anniversary.â€
Yet experts say that Budapest’s nationalist rhetoric is not taken seriously in Bucharest.
“Of course Viktor Orbán will instrumentalize the Trianon anniversary†— Michal Å imeÄka, Slovak MEPÂ
“Romania has no reason to be worried about the regrets some are manifesting about the Treaty of Trianon,†said Valentin Naumescu, associate professor of international relations at BabeÅŸ-Bolyai University Cluj-Napoca, who is also a former high-ranking diplomat.
Romania’s and Hungary’s membership of NATO and the EU “consolidates the post-war European order,†he said.
In Hungary, not everyone shares the government’s approach to history.
“Trianon currently has no relevance, it’s Fidesz’s nationalist narrative to create animosity with neighboring nations,†said MEP Attila Ara-Kovács, a member of Hungary’s opposition Democratic Coalition, who grew up in Romania.
All of Hungary’s current borders “were set not in Trianon but in Paris in 1947,†he said, referring to the postwar peace treaties, adding that the Hungarian government’s approach to Trianon “weakens the EU’s cohesion.â€
Some politicians in neighboring countries see the EU as a tool for overcoming divisions over Trianon.
“Of course Viktor Orbán will instrumentalize the Trianon anniversary,†said Slovak MEP Michal Å imeÄka, a member of Progressive Slovakia. “Fortunately, European Union membership provides a powerful antidote, allowing Hungarians, Slovaks and others in Central Europe to relate to the past — and come to terms with the past — without reigniting old divisions and grievances.”
He added, “For me, it is crucial that ethnic Hungarians feel at home in Slovakia — that means not only the highest legal guarantees of their minority rights, but also the freedom to pursue and cultivate their Hungarian identity, which includes Trianon, even if Slovaks have a different perspective on the events of 1920.”
One of those there that night was Simon Renoldi,who tells Anushka Asthana that days later he took to his bed with all the symptoms associated with Covid-19. Shortly afterwards, his father, who worked with him in the family pub, fell ill and died.

Donald Trump’s administration “has never really sought to engage Europe, and it’s sort of dropping the pretense that it’s going to at all, in what could be its final year,†says Max Bergmann, a senior fellow and expert on transatlantic relations at the Center for American Progress | Jabin Botsford/The Washington Post
These freshly commissioned snapshots of life during the crisis, featuring actors performing from their homes, will be livestreamed in three instalments over the next month. Given the profound difficulties the industry faces I really want to be encouraging about the first episode – but there were issues that cannot be ignored.
Recent events laid bare how deficient Australia is when it comes to recording theatrical performance. No one expects the quality of London’s National Theatre Live, but a subsidised theatre company should be able to produce something slicker than this.
Amateurish bloopers piled up even before any actor appeared on screen. Viewers were emailed the wrong Vimeo link. Countdown music stopped and started without warning. Director Bridget Balodis’ intro referred to the COVID-19 crisis as “more like a seismic shift than a sudden earthquake†(surely a tautology).
The monologues themselves had histrionic potential that was initially marred by extended buffering and visual lag which made the whole thing look as if it were being broadcast from the Moon.
On a second (and crystal clear) viewing, though, writing and acting talent were obvious, offering a sincere and affecting attempt to embody the complex psychological rigours of lockdown.
Daniel Schlusser portrayed a frustrated clown, cut off from his audience, speculating desperately about whether he performed an essential service. Sophie Ross convinced as an overburdened paralegal working from home amid an uptick in insolvency cases, while musing on the ethics of corporate drudgery.
And Henry Tseng, as an anaesthetist on the front line of the war against the virus, vividly sketched the stress of anticipating public health disaster, as well as the relief of “the best anticlimax we could have had†after the effectiveness of our nation’s response became clear.
Problems with The Lockdown Monologues make their own case for a response: urgent and targeted government funding to help theatre companies adapt.
Theatre is challenging to capture on screen (even London’s National Theatre Live can’t always translate the magic of the real thing, as its recording of A Streetcar Named Desire with Gillian Anderson demonstrates), but it must be done if we’re to allow our stories, and Australian experiences of this crisis, to be shared through live performance at this time.
These snippets are a small step in the right direction.
WASHINGTON — The Senate gave final approval on Wednesday to a measure that would relax the terms of a federal loan program for small businesses struggling amid the pandemic, sending the bill to President Trump’s desk for his signature.
The legislation, approved overwhelmingly by the House last week to enact changes to the Paycheck Protection Program, would extend to 24 weeks from eight weeks the period that small businesses would have to spend the loan money. Without that change, the time for businesses to use the funds would have lapsed in only a few days.
The measure passed unanimously on Wednesday evening without the full Senate present, marking a rare moment of bipartisanship during a fierce debate over the next round of federal coronavirus relief. Democrats have pushed for another swift injection of billions of dollars in spending, while Republicans have urged restraint with a far leaner package.
Since its inception in the $2.2 trillion stimulus law passed in March, the program has been plagued by problems and controversy, but it remains popular among businesses and lawmakers. Facing a flood of requests for assistance, the program ran out of money, and Congress moved in April to inject an additional $320 billion into the initiative.
“The Senate has always committed to standing behind this popular program,†Senator Mitch McConnell, Republican of Kentucky and the majority leader, said on the Senate floor. “I’m proud the Senate is sending it on to the president’s desk to become law.â€
Senator Ron Johnson, Republican of Wisconsin, initially objected on Wednesday to an attempt by Democrats to pass the legislation without a formal roll call vote, telling his colleagues that more clarity was needed about the changes. To satisfy those concerns, Mr. McConnell submitted a letter clarifying that the congressional intent was to extend the time frame to spend the loan money until the end of the year, not the period by which to apply for the program.
Senator Chuck Schumer of New York, the Democratic leader, praised the legislation, and said that he and Senator Benjamin L. Cardin, Democrat of Maryland, spoke to Mr. Johnson about his concerns. “This is an improvement that is much-needed and comes at the last minute, but not too late,†Mr. Schumer said.
The legislation approved Wednesday would eliminate a number of restrictions in the program, including limitations on how the funds could be spent, in an effort to make the initiative more accessible to local restaurants, hotels and hospitality businesses.
It would also give companies greater flexibility to use the loan money on other business expenses, like utilities and rent, by lowering the amount required to be spent on payroll to 60 percent, from 75 percent.
But some lawmakers remained concerned about the change to the amount required to be spent on payroll, with some Republicans warning that the language could result in some businesses being penalized and required to repay their loans in their entirety.
Senators Marco Rubio of Florida and Susan Collins of Maine, the Republican architects of the program, said they were likely to pursue legislation that would provide a technical change that ensures that businesses can have their loans forgiven in some form regardless of how they spend the money.
“The fundamental challenge was basically, you have a bunch of people out there with loans that are about to hit the eight-week limit,†Mr. Rubio said earlier Wednesday, calling the process “a race against time.â€
The Army had made a decision to send a unit of the 82nd Airborne’s rapid deployment force, about 200 troops, home from the capital region. But Mr. Trump ordered Mr. Esper during the angry meeting at the White House to reverse it, the administration official said. The reversal was first reported by The Associated Press.
Despite calls for calm from senior Pentagon leaders, the troops on the ground in Washington on Wednesday night appeared to be ramping up for a more militarized show of force. National Guard units pushed solidly ahead of the police near the White House, almost becoming the public face of the security presence. They also blocked the streets with Army transport trucks and extended the perimeter against protesters.
Although Mr. Esper’s comments at the Pentagon made clear that a rise in violence in cities nationwide could prompt a change in his stance, his statement was clear. Saying that the Insurrection Act should be invoked only in the “most urgent and dire of situations,†he added that “we are not in one of those situations now.â€
Mr. Esper, a West Point graduate who once served in the 101st Airborne Division, said, “I do not support invoking the Insurrection Act.â€
At the White House, Ms. McEnany said that, for now, Mr. Trump was “relying on surging the streets with National Guard.†But, she noted: “The Insurrection Act is a tool available. The president has the sole authority and, if needed, he will use it.â€
General Milley has been able to influence Mr. Trump in ways that Mr. Esper, who the president views with skepticism, has not, White House officials said.
Mr. Esper’s explicit opposition to invoking the act came only days after he described the country as a “battle space†to be cleared, a comment that drew harsh condemnation from a number of former senior military officials — the kind who usually do not criticize the successors across the Pentagon leadership. The use of the term, bandied about in battlefield command centers, implies a piece of terrain, disassembled in grid squares, characterized by threats and awaiting one solution: military force through violence.
Officer Derek Chauvin will now face second-degree murder charges, while Officers Thomas Lane, J.A. Keung and Tou Thao will face charges, as well.
USA TODAY
Tou Thao was concerned about the crowd gathering as three officers were restraining George Floyd.Â
As Thomas Lane was talking with Floyd after he responded to a call about someone using a counterfeit $20 bill, Lane pulled his gun. He later held Floyd down by his legs.Â
J. Alexander Kueng couldn’t find a pulse for Floyd while Derek Chauvin had his knee pressed into Floyd’s neck. Still, Kueng held Floyd down by his back.
And Chauvin kept his knee pressed to Floyd’s neck for nearly nine minutes, which, according to a county medical examiner, led to Floyd’s death. Criminal complaints filed Wednesday against all four now-fired police officers detail the moments leading up to Floyd’s death, which has been ruled a homicide and sparked outrage and protests worldwide.Â
Chauvin, who was arrested last week, has been charged with second-degree murder and manslaughter. The second-degree murder charge was announced Wednesday by Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, who also announced aiding and abetting charges against the other three former Minneapolis officers.Â
Thao, Lane and Kueng were all in custody in the Hennepin County Jail on $1 million bail, according to the jail’s online roster search. Kueng has a court appearance set for Friday.Â
According to the criminal complaints filed against the officers, Lane and Kueng were the first officers on the scene after someone called 911 to report Floyd purchasing merchandise from Cup Foods with allegedly fake money. Both Kueng and Lane had their body-worn cameras running.Â
The two officers found Floyd in a car around the corner from the store with two other people. Lane began speaking to him while Floyd was still in the driver’s seat, according to court documents. Lane pulled his gun while talking with Floyd and directed him to show his hands. Floyd complied and Lane holstered his gun.Â
While Kueng was speaking to the passengers, Lane told Floyd to get out of the car and handcuffed him. Floyd sat down and was “calm,” according to the complaint, and Lane explained to Floyd that he was under arrest “for passing counterfeit currency.” Lane also asked Floyd if he was “on anything.”
Lane and Kueng tried to put Floyd into their squad car, and “Mr. Floyd stiffened up and fell to the ground,” Lane’s complaint states. According to documents, Floyd told officers “he was not resisting but did not want to get in the back seat and was claustrophobic.”Â
Soon, Chauvin and Thao arrived at the scene. The officers attempted to get Floyd into a patrol car, while Floyd said he couldn’t breathe. Chauvin and Kueng tried to get Floyd into the car from the passenger seat while the other officers tried pushing him from the driver’s side, according to court documents.
When that didn’t work, Chauvin pulled Floyd out of the passenger side of the car and Floyd “went to the ground face down and still handcuffed,” the complaint said. Kueng held Floyd’s back and Lane held his legs while Chauvin put his left knee on Floyd’s neck, court documents state.Â
Floyd repeatedly said he couldn’t breathe. At one point he said, “I’m about to die.”Â
The officers kept their positions.Â
Thao got a hobble restraint but the other officers “decided not to use it and maintained their positions,” Thao’s complaint says.Â
After Thao looked at how the officers were restraining Floyd, “The defendant then became concerned about a number of citizens who had gathered and were watching the officers subdue Mr. Floyd, and potential traffic concerns, and so the defendant stood between those citizens and the three officers,” Thao’s criminal complaint states.Â
“When one citizen stepped off the curb, imploring Chauvin to get off of Mr. Floyd, the defendant put his hands on the citizen to keep him back.”
After that, one of the officers said Floyd was “talking fine.” Lane asked if Floyd should be flipped on his side and said, “I am worried about excited delirium or whatever.” Chauvin said, “That’s why we have him on his stomach.”Â
“Despite his comments, the defendant took no actions to assist Mr. Floyd, to change his position, or to reduce the force the officers were using against Mr. Floyd,” Lane’s complaint states.Â
Kueng checked Floyd’s wrist for a pulse and said, “I couldn’t find one,” while Chauvin’s knee was still pressed into Floyd’s neck, Kueng’s complaint states. Chauvin didn’t remove his knee from Floyd’s neck for about two minutes after Floyd appeared to stop breathing, according to court documents.
An independent autopsy commissioned by Floyd’s family and the Hennepin County Medical Examiner both ruled Floyd’s death a homicide. The report from the medical examiner stated Floyd’s cause of death as “cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint and neck compression.”Â
The examiner also reported Floyd “died from cardiopulmonary arrest while being restrained by law enforcement officers,” according to court documents. Toxicology testing “revealed the presence of fentanyl and evidence of recent methamphetamine use.”Â
“The ME opined that the effects of the officers’ restraint of Mr. Floyd, his underlying health conditions, and the presence of the drugs contributed to his death,” court documents state.Â
