One of Donald Trump’s top choices for a running mate holds progressive stances on a number of core Republican issues, including abortion and gay marriage.

Attorney General Loretta Lynch issued a call for unity on Friday, urging Americans to recognize their shared humanity after a week that saw two black men killed by police in two different states and five Dallas police officers gunned down by at least one sniper.

State Rep. Tony Cornish (R-MN) accused Gov. Mark Dayton (D) of trying to “please certain people” by saying that race played a role in fatal police shootings like the one that killed Minnesotan Philando Castile on Wednesday.

Attorney General Loretta Lynch will hold a press conference at 11:30 a.m. ET about the fatal shooting attack on Dallas police officers Thursday night.

A former Tea Party congressman from Illinois sent a series of tweets on Thursday night blaming the fatal police shootings in Dallas on President Barack Obama and declaring a war on “black lives matter punks.”

A man who came to a Thursday Dallas Black Lives Matter protest to raise awareness of fatal police shootings ended his night facing a barrage of death threats after he was wrongly identified as a suspect in a coordinated attack against local police officers.

The suspect who launched an armed attack on police officers at the scene of a Black Lives Matter protest in Dallas told law enforcement officials that he was upset about the recent fatal police shootings of civilians and wanted to kill white cops, according to the police chief.

As hundreds marched peacefully through downtown Dallas on Thursday evening to protest two recent fatal police shootings, gunfire broke out, scattering the crowd. Snipers killed five police officers and wounded six others, as well as one civilian, according to Associated Press reports.

Snipers killed five police officers and injured six others during protests over two recent police shootings of black men in downtown Dallas. Three people are in custody and a fourth remained locked in an exchange of gunfire with officers as of Friday morning.

It happened again.

And then again.

In two days, two new police shootings that left two black men dead.

Both incidents were captured in graphic, fragmented cellphone camera videos that provided viewers shocking but incomplete pictures of how Louisiana resident Alton Sterling and Minnesotan Philando Castile lost their lives.

In a twist, both cases involved black men who were armed at the time of their encounters with the police, though neither man was brandishing his weapon, according to initial reports from witnesses. One of the men was reportedly a gun aficionado licensed to carry a weapon.

The new incidents have reinvigorated calls for stricter oversight of the use of force by police and renewed questions about how much clarity video footage can provide in these incidents.

Here’s what we know about the fatal shootings so far.
