Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden condemned the violence in Kenosha and expressed outrage over the police shooting of Jacob Blake.
“Once again, a Black man — Jacob Blake — was shot by the police. In front of his children. It makes me sick. Is this the country we want to be? Needless violence won’t heal us. We need to end the violence — and peacefully come together to demand justice,” Biden wrote in a tweet.
