White House under lockdown as protests over Floyd's death reach nation's capital
The protests over George Floyd's death hit the nation's capital Friday night, leading to a lockdown at the White House, spokesman Judd Deere confirmed to USA TODAY.
Floyd, a black man, died in Minneapolis police custody this week after a white officer pinned him to the ground under his knee. His death has sparked demonstrations against police brutality and racial discrimination in cities across the United States.
The Secret Service frequently locks down the White House for perceived security threats, such as packages or bags left nearby. But the building is rarely locked down for protests. And while protests are a daily occurrence outside the White House, they are often small – drawing a few dozen people, at most.

He's probably cowering in his closet with a bucket of KFC and his "twitter machine" with a full diaper and tears streaming down his make-up stained face.
Tough guy, my ass!
