are we surprised we are here in the hospital again. did we doubt because of the rhetoric we are hearing, the anti-police rhetoric that storming our streets. are we surprised that we got this call? i'm not. ainsley: this is a fox news alert. ambush. an nypd officer in brooklyn stabbed in the neck and two others shot while standing guard against looters overnight. this as new video emerges of another new york city police officer. this in harold square in the city. bashed in the head with a fire extinguisher earlier this week, brian. brian: wow. the violence aimed at cops stem from the death of george floyd. now all four officers involved have been charged. those cops had nothing to do with it. thousands marched to the javits center. steve: meanwhile in our nation's capital, hundreds gathered near the white house once again and we are going to update you

throughout. good morning, it is 6:00 a.m. in the east right now. we start with lauren green in new york city on the street with more on those officers who were injured last night. lauren? >> steve, well late last night those three nypd police officers were wounded but all of them are expected to survive. two officers were patrolling the streets of brooklyn, trying to protect local businesses from looting when a man approached them with a knife, stabbing one of the officers in the neck. fellow officers responded immediately exchanging gunfire with the perpetrator. two officers were shot in the hand. all three wounded officers are in stable condition. and they are expected to recover. now, the suspect was also shot and is in critical condition. and this incident follows other attacks on cops in recent days. this week a sergeant was struck by a black sedan in the bronx. and another officer was beat up on the street. nypd commissioner dermot shae responding to the violence.

>> it appears to be a completely cowardly, despicable, unprovoked attack on a defenseless police officer and thanks god we are not planning a funeral right now. the men and women of this police department should not have to withstand any more. not one more attack. i think we are all fed up with what we are seeing in many levels. this violence has to stop. >> now police commissioner shay is expected to give updates later today. they are going to review that body cam footage to sort out a very chaotic incident, steve? ainsley: wake up this morning preparing for the show press conference in brooklyn talking about three officers. they had nothing to do with what happened in minneapolis. there are bad cops. we need to get rid of those and look at records and see how they treated people in the past and

root them out of these departments. but it's not fair to the good cops, the ones that are on the ground protecting our communities. and here in new york we have that no bail system where if you get in trouble you go to the jail but you get out immediately. they document on your record but there is no cash bail anymore. you are right back on the streets. brian: yeah. well there is so much wrong going on right now. number one, i don't see an increase in cops on the job from 8,000 to 35,000, which they are capable of. number two, they are hitting pricy neighborhoods, the most lucrative neighborhoods that fuel the tax base that allows the city to have any social programs whatsoever. and while this happens and chaos reigns and cops and police officers are disrespected, they keep the city shut down entirely saying it's for our own good. telling us you can go outside for a while but not for too long. saying you better wear a mask or else you are going to kill your

grandmother. at the same time, letting protests rage, encouraging it, saying it's a good thing, just keep it calm. wait a second, what is it? stay away? social distancing, don't work? maybe if some of these kids were in school or had a job or some adults were able to do the same thing, they wouldn't be throwing fire extinguishers through windows or using pickaxes to jam open doors into restaurants they have no business going in. this is a travesty. and do you know what the mayor wants to talk about? imagine, by john lennon. can you imagine a society like that? yes, let's hum you a john lennon song while you kick us out of school, out of jobs and you can felt protesters to run rampant through the streets. this is anarchy. steve: that is a list of the number of the officers who have been attacked during the protests over the last 10 days: trust me it goes on and on.

meanwhile, you know, there are curfews in major cities. but the crowds continue. the crowds continued last night surrounding the white house and the capital as well. they defied the curfew. griff jenkins is just about two blocks, i believe, from the white house right now. and, griff, i know there is some commotion down there. we saw the national guard behind you and what's going on? griff: hey, steve, yeah. there is a situation here and some of the protesters got upset. there is a little fighting between themselves. and let me just show you what happened where we were. excuse me, sir. >> no, no, sir. griff: let me explain what happened here. >> we are not doing that the protesters were throwing some bottles but the guard retreated back behind the fence. what you see now is the secret service. my brother, just give me a chance to tell your story.

all right. >> what we have right now is upset protester. but what is happening. ainsley: we will be safe. griff, we will come back to you when it calms down. steve: we'll indeed. brian: total disrespect. ainsley: talk about david dorm. the video is out there. it's awful, it's horrible. he was a retired police captain in st. louis. he is outlines of his friend's pawnshop. pawn and jewelry shop. he is guarding it. and his friend would say when i needed him in the middle of the night, he was there this man he retired. 40 years of service. his family is broken hearted because he was shot and killed on the pavement and left to die. one of the men that got it on camera. guys, you did this. you took tvs, was it worth killing this grandfather? turns out, steve and brian, he's a father of five and a grandfather of 10.

steve: he is indeed. his nickname was cap, apparently years of service, i believe he worked for 30 years to protect people. his son brian had a message to the looters. essentially it is please stop. watch. >> it was senseless over tvs, over stuff that's replaceable. and they are forgetting the real message for the protest and the positiveness that is supposed to come out of it. and we get this negative light that's shown on a situation that really needed light to be brought to it. steve: you know, and there, as you look at officer done, you know that he would do everything in his power to protect protesters first amendment rights to protest. unfortunately as we learned in the last 10 days there are bad actors apparently some are extremists who are using this situation to foment anger and

violence against police officers. the people who wear the badge. and then in the midst of that, there is a third group of people who apparently have capitalized on this discord and have gone in and done the looting. the good news is for the most part overnight it appears that the curfews have been effective. a number of jurisdictions as well have had zero tolerance when it comes to breaking the curfew. but, in washington, d.c., it sounds like, and this is interesting, bill barr has really become the point personal on the federal response. what he has done over the last couple of days is he has enlisted the use of federal agents to man the streets in some cases. and what's interesting is about a day ago, he mobilized the dea by the direction of the doj where they can covertly surveil the people who were involved in these extremist elements to figure out who they are, if

there is coordination. and then they take that information over the next 14 days and they give it to local law enforcement. and if if you are one of these pot stir errors who is figuring out how to cause violence. just know the dea is using all the assets of the federal government to figure out who you are and whether or not you are breaking the law, brian. brian: saint louis chaos four nightfourshot. eric schmidt the attorney general tells us in a stunning development our office has learned that every single one of the st. louis looters and rioters arrested were released back into the streets by the local prosecutor kim gardner. there is chaos and no one seems to care. unless it effects you. incredible. talking about chaos. let's go out to griff jenkins. go ahead. griff: i just want to tell you that what we have had here this morning has just been a lot of

passions running hot. but it has been mostly peaceful. you can see the guard has now retreated all the way in to the lafayette park area. secret service in there. but there were some passions running hot. wayne, can i have you for a second? wayne, excuse me one second. i want to introduce you to wayne. can i borrow you for a second we're on live tv i got you both in here. wayne is a former national guard from d.c. he is out here protesting. you understand both stands. >> both sides. >> explain what has been going on? it's been peaceful. what's the message and what's it been like for you as you are also talking to the guards. >> the message is i'm here as a representative for both sides. i want people to understand the sides from the soldier side and from the protester's side. that's just straight like that. one side from the protester side one side from the soldier side. i understand. the soldiers, they didn't do nothing. it's the police brutality we need to focus on.

not soldier brutality. police brutality. that's what we need to focus on. griff: you were giving encouragement to the guard stay strong. >> we have a thing in the military embracing. stuff is going to get bad. stuff is going to get down. embrace the stuff and stand tall. stand tall and proud. that's what you got to do. i am trying to explain that to my fellow protesters who have a rite to protest, too. griff: got it. quick seconds. no cursing now. it's morning tv. what's your message. what do you want the world to hear? >> we all are human beings. we, the people, if you consider me not a people, then you are unconstitutional. you are not upholding the constitution and the values of the constitution. you are upholding oppression and benefits and things that benefit you personally. and you don't mind seeing other people destroyed and just being

brutal. griff: you saw the emotions running hot a little bit earlier. it's been pretty peaceful. and we are glad that the law enforcement seems to have things under control this morning. after yet another night of protesting. we expect more. obviously going to continual throughout the day and the night. guys? ainsley: yes. i agree with him. we are all god's children. we are all equal. and the military is doing a great job. we do need to root out those bad apples as we said that are in the police force. the majority of them are really great. and they do the right thing. and they keep us all safe. steve: that's right. and, brian, i. started to interrupt and we were going to griff, to your point about how local prosecutors are letting so many people immediately back out on the street, that's why bill barr and the department of justice are figuring out ways, where appropriate, to charge people with federal crimes. remember, it was a couple days ago where the two sisters who were involved in that molotov

cocktail situation in new york, you know, the worry is they would immediately be released. what did the feds do? they charged them with a federal crime which was destruction to a police vehicle. brian: right. and that's heartening. it's too bad it has to come to that because these are logical baillogicalbad laws offer. he or she is no longer allowed to give discretion to possibly a would be violent suspect. they just know it's hard and fast. you are in, you are out. 90% of the people that come by their desk. race, equality, police brutality. let's talk about policies and changes that happen in ferguson and elsewhere. if you are going to destroy neighborhoods and assault police officers, that ends the discussion. these celebrities and these

athletes could do what the family of george floyd wants and say don't do this in their name or for their race, destroying innocent people's livelihoods and beating up police officers does no one any good and it shuts people down from listening to the legitimate concerns you have about american society. so, understand that. there's a group that's going to sit n the pouring rain. i give you credit. the group that's just going to destroy fifth avenue, i give you zero credit. for the cops that aren't allowed to do their job and for the politicians that don't let them, you are despicable and you should resign. ainsley: you are right, brian. thank you for that perspective. we do want to apologize apparently in the background behind griff there was foul language on one of the t-shirts. i didn't happen to see it. i know some of you did. we apologize for that if you happened to see it. all right. it is 6:14 here on the east coast. hand it over to jillian back in the studios with headlines. jillian: good morning. we begin with a fox news alert.

first memorial of george floyd is scheduled for today in minneapolis. the city will honor floyd's life after he was killed in police custody. former officer derek sean has cs had his charge upgraded to second degree murder. second aiding and abetting second degree murder. all four officers are seen on surveillance video you see it right here as chauvin presses his knee against floyd's head and neck. we will have a live report from minneapolis later this hour. talk about extreme weather right now. at least three people are killed in pennsylvania after powerful storms sweep through the northeast. wind toppling tree he is and ripping off roofs, leaving hundreds of thousands without power. one person died after a massive tree fell on a country club. in south jersey heavy winds uprooting trees and power lines.

today the senate judiciary committee is set to vote on subpoenas for dozens of former intel officials. including former fbi director james comey and former cia john brethren nanget part of their new russia investigation. former cia director, i should say. the vote comes after former deputy attorney general rod rosenstein was grilled by the committee. >> if you knew then what you know now would you have signed warrant application? >> no, i would not. >> who are we to hold responsible? you are saying it's not you. >> no. i'm saying, senator, i'm accountable for it. >> but the question is why did it happen? jillian: rosenstein denied the probe was corrupt. all right. were place your bets. las vegas casinos reopen. turning on lights after being closed for 78 days. but don't expect to see everything back open. shows remain closed. gamblers can expect to see a lot of plexiglass and social distancing reminders. send it back to you.

steve: progress. brian: thank you so much. so much going on. 60 minutes after the hour. police are forcing, slow down the prompter a little so i can read it. police are out in full force to stop rioting and looting during curfews. our next guest is a pastor and daughter of a police officer, she joins us with a reminder about the good of the blue. a lot of folks ask me why their dishwasher doesn't get everything clean. i tell them, it may be your detergent... that's why more dishwasher brands recommend cascade platinum...

last friday hundreds of law enforcement officers trying to do their job have been targeted. next guest is a pastor who is the daughter of a police officer. she is reminding people of the good of the blue. joining us right now is senior pastor at the park united methodist church in dallas, texas, reverend shah ron patterson. good morning to you. >> good morning to you, steve. how are you? steve: i'm doing okay. some people right now, reverend, though, are troubled by what is going on from different points of view. you have a unique perspective because you come at it from three different points of view, essentially. you call them your three pillars you are the daughter of a police officer. you are the mother of two children and the leader of a flock of people who look to you for help. >> exactly. it gives me a very unique platform that is very helpful during this crisis in america.

>> it does indeed. when you see the images of police officers who are out amid the community and you see them kneeling with the protesters you like that image base it reminds you of what your father would have done. >> yes. my father was a policeman on the police force for over 30 years. he was one of the first african-americans who integrate the force. back in those days, steve, policemen were the heroes of the community. everybody knew them. they knew everybody's name. they did community policing before the term was invented. so i came up in a time where i was reared by the blue and i love the blue. and so when i see police i have a lot of feelings. police abuse of the peaceful protesters the way they have been tear gassed and pepper

sprayed. peaceful protesters are being attacked by the police. that's concerning me quite a bit. steve: you mentioned a moment ago, referenced, that once not that long ago police were heroes. what happened? >> yes. violence against persons the murder of george floyd is not isolated incident. police have been murdering americans for generations. americans caught this on video and see it. that's why they have taken to the streets. the streets are filled with rage and anger and they are calling for change. and let me say clearly, i am pro-the blue but i am also pro-police reform. steve: sure. and i get that because there have been instances of police brutality and that is why -- there are protests coast to coast, reverend. you know that. >> yes.

steve: at the same time there have been elements of extremism, perhaps that have essentially co-opted this movement, and this moment and they have used it to, you know, stir things up and break things and all sorts of stuff. and you don't like that. >> exactly. i abhor the violence. i decry the violence. those persons are criminals. people who are looting and stealing and burning, they are criminals. and they dilute the process of peaceful protest and they take the focus away from the good that's being done and shift it because by and large there are peaceful protests coast to coast. steve: that's exactly right. there are. as law enforcement all across the country does their best to make sure that they are safe, they are able to go ahead and express their first amendment rights and keep the peace coast to coast. referenced, thank you very much for joining us today from dallas. >> thank you.

sounds stupid because it is. let me give you an example, brian or maybe just a couple quick ones. this past weekend in drive by shootings 80 chicagoens shot predominantly black. who investigates those cases? in philadelphia there is a 14-year-old girl, a young black girl missing. who looks for her? the police are there to protect the community. they are there to protect the community from rioters, from looters, not to protect the looters and the rioters from the community. we need law and order in this country. we need a structure that works. brian: right. >> i hear the cries. i agree with the cries against police brutality. we all do. americans united on that. these hollywood elites are just that as a matter of fact, they are dangerous because others may think that what they suggest or say actually makes sense. brian: people are listening. do you know what mayor garcetti of los angeles was going to give his police officers 7%, not a raise but just more into law

enforcement. because they have about 10,000 now and they can't control the streets right now. and he says i'm rethinking that black lives matter says they should. they want to put together their own peace force and the celebrities. liz zoe, john legend, the weekend, portman and of course jane fonda. if you find yourself agreeing with jane fonda, know you are on the wrong side. >> jane fonda is a traitor to this nation but we will put that aside for the moment. okay. so let's remove the police and use the example from lubbock, texas, where an armed man shows up with a long gun with the looters saying he is going to take out any maga supporters. the police and the law enforcement officials stepped in on that one. he is under arrest with federal charges. if the police and law enforcement are not there, who takes him on. do you think he is going it fire into the crowd selectively or indiscriminately. this is ridiculous.

this is what happens when black lives matter, which is a farce and a dangerous farce that came out of ferguson while i was there has been thrust upon the nation with some form of legitimacy. there are dead cops in new york. there are injured cops all around this country because of black lives matter and that has taken us to where we are today. and anyone pushing for that again to the american people, these are dangerous elitists who live in their bordered walls and homes where they don't have to deal with the things in society that you do. brian: david, this is how galore russ in is to be a police officer in new york city. one of 34,000. you start on the salary of 32,500. mansion and butlers and don't have to mow your own lawn. after five and a half years if you survive that long if you not come up on some charges, 8 a 5,000. so good luck with that as you try last 20 years and get total

disrespect. is that worth getting hit with fire extinguishers? is that being worth told to get off the horses that can control big horses and control crowds. you better not be too oppressive? you have got to be kidding me. nobody wants to be police officers. so they might have some funds left over in the long run. this is nuts. final thought? >> it is. and, look, for everyone, look for the videos of looters coming out of a rolls royce suv to loot stores in soho. who protects the store? we need an honest conversation in this country. if i may harris faulkner and i are going to have that today on my radio show, brian, when don peebles joining us. real perspectives. real honest conversations for the american people. brian: you can't have a conversation where you vilify law enforcement from coast to coast. keeping 330 million people safe. by the way, they're the first ones to call 911 when they're in trouble.

let's see if your peace officer comes to your aid then. thanks so much, david, we look forward to that. all four officers in the case that started it all are now charged in george floyd's death. murder charges especially derek chauvin who put his knee on george's neck. we'll talk about this. is this enough? judge napolitano live. i recommend nature made vitamins... because i trust their quality they were the first to have a vitamin verified by usp... ...an independent organization that sets strict quality and purity standards nature made, the #1 pharmacist recommended vitamin and supplement brand

♪ steve: the first memorial service for george floyd will be held today in minneapolis, minnesota. this is now all four officers involved in his death have now been charged. garrett tenney is live in minneapolis with the new autopsy report. garrett? >> yeah. good morning, y'all. we learned a couple new items in this new autopsy report that was released with the permission of the floyd family by the county medical examiner's office. a few highlights from that the cause of death listed as

cardiopulmonary arrest it. also revealed that george floyd tested positive for covid-19 back in april. he did not have any symptoms not listed as a factor. the report disclosed that floyd had blunt-force injuries to his face, soldiers, hands, arms and legs. it is also worth noting that the family's independent autopsy determined the cause of death as strangulation. those new revelations though came hours after new charges were filed against the officer's involved. derek chawrch, the officer who had his knee on george floyd's neck for nearly nine minutes is facing second degree murder charges in addition to third degree and the other three officers involved. alexander king and thomas lane are now charged with aiding and abetting second degree murder. despite the abundance of video evidence in this case, minnesota attorney general keith ellison is stretching this is by no means going to be easy. >> this is going to take months.

and i don't know how many, but it is better to make sure that we have a solid case fully investigated, researched before we go to trial than to rush it. >> this afternoon, family and friends will come to celebrate the life of george floyd here at north central university at a memorial. it is an invitation only event due to coronavirus restriction on numbers but it's going to be streamed online. reverend al sharpton will be giving the eulogy. of course on tuesday the funeral will be held in houston. back to y'all. ainsley: thank you, garrett. let's bring in judge andrew napolitano. senior judicial analyst. good morning to you, judge. >> good morning, guys. ainsley: good morning to you. let's talk about upgraded charges, second degree unincontinuational murder. keith ellison says for that state says without intent. what's your reaction? >> well, let me correct what you

just said. second degree murder is intentional murder. third degree murder which is terminology unique to minnesota is manslaughter. manslaughter is the reckless use of dangerous force. second degree murder is intent to kill but without premeditation. so, i commend, i applaud attorney general els for moving the right direction. he needs to go to another step as i argue in my piece to foxnews.com this morning and have before with you guys. there is more than enough evidence here to charge first degree murder i would argue 8 and a half minutes during which your colleagues ask you to stop and you refuse shows a planning to produce the end result which is death. now, what is the benefit of charging him with first degree murder?

the benefit is and first degree murder in minnesota is life without possibility of parole. the advantage is he will plead to second degree murder and you won't have to go through the expense and the circus of a trial. how can this guy get a fair trial? how can the state get a fair trial? first degree murder is the way to go. they know their case better than i do. second degree murder is more appropriate than third degree manslaughter they originally charged him with. let me also remind you all of this has to go to a grand jury. attorney general els and his lawyers have to present all this evidence to a grand jury and the grand jury will actually decide, they almost always do what the prosecutors ask them to do. but still the grand jury has to decide what the final charges will be. ainsley: can i interrupt you? judge: go ahead. ainsley: i'm hearing conflicting things. minnesota guidelines indicate two possibilities for

intentional first degree murder and unintentional second degree murder. can it be different in that state? up intentional murder is the third degree degree. is he charged with second degree murder. intentional murder without planning it ahead of time. he is also charged with this third degree murder, a bizarre terminology in most states it's called manslaughter which is the reckless use of dangerous force. that one carries 10 years in jail. the second degree murder carries 40 years in jail. he can't be convicted of both. either it was intentional or it was negligent. it can't be both. but because the government doesn't know how the jury is going to end up, they throw everything against him and let a trial jury decide what he is guilty of. but, in their opinion, in my opinion, the evidence is more than enough to convict for second degree murder or first degree murder if they want to go

there. brian: about 10:00 yesterday morning the senate judiciary committee got underway investigating what went on in the mueller probe and the investigation of the trump campaign. not hard to see this any other time this would be sensational news for most sober news organizations. rod rosenstein, who was in charge of the probe, sat down in front of this committee. and said something kind of astounding, probably wouldn't have done it had i had a and which to look back at it. here is the soundbite of rod rosenstein talking about andy mccabe, the acting director of the fbi and what he should have told him about james comey. >> lie something when you ask somebody a direct question and i get a faults answer. candor is when you are forthcoming with information that somebody needs to know and i believe, senator, that mr. mccabe should have recognized that when i became acting attorney general i needed to know about mr. comey's memos. he didn't understand that and he

did not tell that to me until a couple hours before they showed up in the "new york times." brian: right. and he also -- andy mccabe has gone on the record and tweeted out that rod rosenstein lied yesterday. what's your take away, judge? >> it's hard to tell who is telling the truth, brian. i mean, neither of these guys can get in any legal trouble for the awful things that they did when one ran the doj, actually number two but he was running this part of it, and the other was number two. and for a while the acting director of the fbi. but, mr. rosenstein can get that lot of trouble for lying to senator graham's committee because that's called perjury. i don't know who is telling the truth. in my opinion, nothing will happen. this will be a swearing match between the two of them. i commend senator graham for trying to get to the bottom of this. but, now he has to call andy mccabe. maybe he was going to call him anyway because mccabe's statement from his perch cnn or

wherever he was when he made the statement is not under oath and the committee is going to want to get to the bottom of this. lie to a -- ask roger stone what happens when you fly a congressional committee. steve: judge andrew napolitano joining us from the red room at his house. judge, thank you very much for joining us on this thursday. >> all the best, guys. ainsley: you too. steve: all right. going back to our top news story. if you are just waking up, three new york city police department officers have been injured overnight. one of them stabbed in the neck. we are live on the ground with an update coming up next.

recovery. the suspect is also here. we are told he is in critical condition. this was an unprovoked and brazen attack. police tell us that about 11:45 last night the suspect walked up to two officers who were at an anti looting post here in brooklyn and stabbed one of them in the neck with this knife narrowly missing an artery. the suspect got his hands on a gun believed to belong to one of the cops. other officers who were nearby heard shots. responded, there was a voluntarily of gunfire. listen to how it sounded. [gunshots] >> oh, no. >> when it was officers who officers shot in the hand one suspeconestabbed.

thank goodness that the officers will be able to walk out of here. they are expected to make full recoveries. again, this morning, the suspect is in critical condition. steve, ainsley, brian, back to you. steve: all right, robert moses, thank you very much for joining us from outside the hospital. you know, brian and ainsley, when you look at what happened, that happened last night after the curfew. and clearly the reason the top cops talking about how cowardly and despicable because the guy came up behind him and stabbed the cop in the neck. police made it very clear yesterday they were going to crack down on the now 8:00 p.m. curfew. they said no more tolerance for curfew-breaking. they have to be off the street by 8:00 p.m. because people and businesses have been hurt. top police officers have said that but, at the same time, the police are saying they will no longer allow protesters to defy the curfew then have you got

mayor bill de blasio on the radio at the same time saying protests, yeah, they are okay after the curfew. so you have got the police saying one thing. zero tolerance on curfew-breaking and you have got the mayor saying yeah, it's okay to protest after the curfew. who is running the streets of new york city? ainsley: many are saying they have got to get on the same page. the governor and mayor have been at odds. that's happening in brooklyn in the middle of the night. brian, i was watching that same press conference at 2:30 this morning. you hear about what happened in harold square outside of the macy's area where a cop was trying to arrest someone and they were having a tough time doing that. someone runs up to this 25-year-old cop from behind and slams over his head a fire extinguisher. has to get stitches. there is blood coming out of his head and he had a concussion. the man got away with it. he was wearing a backpack and ran away, brian. brian: unbelievable. i'm just looking at terrence

monahan and what he said. there we are seeing it. he says from day one thursday night we have been facing rocks, bolts and bricks. we very been shot at and run over by cars. but we are still here, still doing it. the governor of the state later back tracked a little bit came out and said the nypd has to do their job. and the mayor, i might even remove him. but where is the governor, mr. take charge? you have an opportunity to put your wind breaker on, put your collar up and take charge and tell people here is the curfew. this is law and order. instead, he supervises this ridiculous where everyone gets in and everyone gets out. i supervises, he allows the mayor of the city to say that this is no big deal. the violence is minimal. look at all the places where it's peaceful and don't overexaggerate. really? ainsley: brian, look at that list right there. look at how long this list is. brian: look at this. this is around the country. the officers are the problem. you want to talk about office reform. i haven't gone through a law

enforcement academy. neither did almost anybody commenting on this. the people they are trying to vilify because of some mutants in the minneapolis police department are the people working the hardest for the least putting the most on the line. they have families like everybody else. and he wants you to hum imagine by john lennon. he wants us to imagine -- john lennon wouldn't be safe in this city right now. he would be hiding in his apartment. steve: that list we just showed people gets longer every day. add three more names to it. coming up, on this thursday, kristi noem and congressman jim jordan. both here live in the next hour.

[gunfire] >> oh, no. [bleep] brian: this is a fox news alert. gunshots ring out overnight in new york city after a police officer is ambushed and stabbed in the neck while standing guard against looters. the nypd releasing the picture of the knife used in the attack as this new video emerges of another new york city bashed in the head with a fire extinguisher. that happened earlier this week. steve: violence aimed at police officers stemming from the death of george floyd about 10 days ago. now all four minneapolis officers involved have been charged. meanwhile, protests continue from coast to coast. overnight, portland, oregon,

thousands marched to the javits center, ainsley. ainsley: yep. and to our nation's capital where hundreds gathered near the white house chanting george floyd mattered. we begin with lauren green she is in new york city with more on those officers that were attacked in brooklyn. lauren? >> well, ainsley, last night the three officers, the three nypd officers were wounded in what police commissioner dermot shea is calling, quote, a completely cowardly despicable unprovoked attack. the two officers were patrolling the streets of brooklyn trying to protect local businesses from looting when a man approached them with a knife, stabbing one of the officers in the neck. fellow officers responded immediately exchanging gunfire with the perpetrators. two officers were shot in the hand. all three wounded officers are in stable condition and expected to recover. the suspect was also shot and is in critical condition. more than 200 nypd police

officers have been injured in clashes with preferghts and looters over the larsz several days. this week a sergeant was struck by a black sedan in the bronx and another officer was beat up on the street. the pba. the police benevolent association president pat lynch responding to the violence only thing that comes to are we surprised we are here in the hospital again? did we doubt because of the rhetoric we are hearing, the anti-police rhetoric? all levels have to say it's going to end today and then allow us to go out and do it. >> commissioner shay, commissioner dermot shea is expected to give us an update later today. they are going to review that body cam footage to see if they can sort all the chaotic incidents surrounding that and also the terrorism task force ask now involved in the investigation. back to you. steve: all right, lauren green on the streets of new york. lauren, thank you very much.

this attack on police officers in new york overnight. among the more than 30 violent attacks targeting law enforcement since friday. here to react police department detective's union paul dejock mow. good morning to you. >> good morning. given the fact that these protests sometimes turn into violence it has made your work very complicated these days. >> that's correct. i was at the hospital with those three officers shot and stabbed. and it was pretty disgusting what went on on church avenue confines of 70 presink. it's not the first time this happened this has gone on in that precinct time and time again in my seven years of policing. we have been through quite a few riots in that particular area where there were violence

against police. ainsley: so, detective, i'm looking at this list in front of me. and we have been showing it all morning. it's just scrolling, all the incidents of violence against police officers. there is david done in st. louis. the four officers in st. louis that were injured in a showdown with a shooter. las vegas, police officer shot in the back. three in buffalo struck by a vehicle. there was that new york police officer up in the bronx that was struck why a vehicle. how do we change the narrative. obviously there is a group that doesn't like our men and women in blue. how do we change that? >> very simple. you have to get people in the community to get involved to lead to peaceful demonstrators in this area. they are now being led by criminals, organized criminals that are out there to victimize the people and victimize the property in their city. this is a very simple fix. it's not the first time we have had rioting in the city of new york. we have the most highly trained emergency service unit in the

world, most highly trained mounted unit in the world. and the most highly trained disorder control unit in the world. let them do their job. they are trained on how to do it. they know how to do it. we handle over 1 million people every new year's eve. we could handle this. let us do our job. brian: detective, couple of things. number one, you were told by the governor do your job. you know how to do it. who is stopping the nypd from 35,000 strong from doing the job they have done in the past? >> i think it's government. government is stopping the police department from letting them do their job. it's not the police department. we know what we have to do and how we have to do it. we just need the okay to go. steve: yeah. brian: you felt as though you had it with bloomberg and giuliani you don't have it now? >> we don't have it. this could be stopped in a matter of a couple hours. they know how to confine the criminals and keep the peaceful

marching. we have done it before hundreds of times. steve: detective, let me ask you this. as a professional police officer it's got to be frustrating to know that when you arrest some of these bad actors on the streets after you see somebody break a window or run out with a bunch of coach bags or something like that, that they are going to go to court and they are going to immediately be released because of the laws of new york state regarding no bail. that's got to just turn your stomach. >> it makes me sick to my stomach to be honest. you know, they create these laws and these people go out and victimize the properties and the people of this city. they get arrested and it's like a revolving door. they create the laws and then they blame the police. it's government's fault. they have to fix what's wrong with society and fix what's

wrong regarding the criminal justice system. that's not letting violent criminals out to commit more crimes against the good people of this city. ainsley: detectives, most people support law enforcement in our country but they don't support what happened to george floyd. what needs to happen to prevent these stories? because we covered a lot of them from happening again. >> you know, nobody agrees on what happened to mr. floyd. but you have to remember this: you need law and order in this country. if you don't have it, there are going to be problems. you need a balance of policing, good old fashioned policing and community policing. you need a good balance of that. you can't have too much of one and not the other. you need the balance of community policing and good old fashioned policing to stop crime. brian: everyone just wants to get rid of the police. not us. but they think that life would be better without you guys. it wouldn't be. i fear that day they would roux

the day that they get what they he wanted. thanks so much. appreciate it. ainsley: thank you. >> thank you. brian: seven minutes after the hour now. the national guard is at our nation's capital this morning as protests are ramping up. griff jenkins is in d.c. with more. griff, did it ever stop from last night, the protests ever wound down? griff: what you were seeing earlier, brian, was left over from last night. let me show you now. morning has come up. the sun is out. there is really only a small handful of half a dozen protesters out here to include a preacher and his wife have been out here every day praying for peace. earlier the national guard in the streets here outside of lafayette park near the white house has been ground zero with the protesters. preasful. but it was passions running hot. i talked to one of the protesters named isaiah. here is what he had to say. >> we all human. we all human, brother. we all can think on the same level and we all can think collectively to make things better for our world. we are all living in the same

world. >> despite the peace in the streets though. there is a war of words breaking out between the president and his former defense secretary james mad dog mattis taking to the atlantic and just blasting the commander-in-chief saying. this donald trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the american people, does not even pretend to try. instead, he tries to divide us, mattis also denouncing the use of troops i nation's capital. saying the walk to st. john's church violated the protesters' rights. meanwhile the president firing back on twitter writing this calling him by the way the world's most overrated general saying mattis' primary strength was not military but rather personal public relations. i gave him a new life, things to do and battles to win but he seldom brought home the bacon. i didn't like his leadership

style or much else about him and many others agree. glad he is gone. we will see if that feud continues. this as the current defense secretary mark h esper breaking from the president publicly saying yesterday he does not believe it is the time for the insurrection act to be called up, which would intel the deployment of active duty troops on the streets which is quiet with more protests expected. brian, ainsley, steve? steve: steve griff, i was reading this morning. apparently the president has asked the attorney general bill barr to be the point person on the federal response. and the strategy going forward starting about 48 hours ago was to flood the zone. so they are trying to get the maximum law enforcement presence on the ground. and that's one of the reasons why, you know, they have asked for national guardsmen to come to the area. yesterday we had the ohio governor who said they were sending 100, ron desantis is going to be on our program today. florida is sending 500 national

guardsmen. who on is on the street in that block? >> well, in this block, what you were looking at earlier were guard troops from south carolina. overnight they were from other states, from new jersey and elsewhere. but we also know the governor of maryland, governor hogan saying that he is putting guard troops from maryland here in the nation's capital that is protecting the monuments, like the lincoln monument and down along the mall. so it's really all of an interesting complex footprint of law enforcement and national guard troops. but, again, the -- putting the attorney general barr in commands of leading the, quote: flood the zone would make sense because at the end of the day, any of the military assets, whether they are guard or active duty troops, it is to support civilian authority law enforcement efforts; therefore, that wouldn't surprise me. we probably got more than 3,000.

i forget the exact number of guard troops just here in the nation's capital, steve. ainsley: all right. thank you so much, griff. last night we were all -- we have been glued to the television. watching tucker's show last night. he opened his show talking about how depressing this news has been. how sad this week has been for him. one of the most painful weeks for americans. he breaks down the numbers and talks about what's really happening in america and looks at the facts. watch this. >> last year the post logged a total of 1004 killings. of the 802 shootings in which the race of police officer and the suspect was note, 371 of those killed were white. 236 were black. the vast majority were armed. overall there were a total of precisely 10 cases in the united states last year according to "the washington post" in which unarmed african-americans were fatally shot by the police. in two of those cases in fully

half the officer was criminally charged. is it possible that more of these officers should have been charged? of course, it's possible. just as it' justice is not alwas served, that's for sure. but either way, this is a very small number in a country of 325 million people. this is not genocide. it's not even close to genocide. it is laughable to suggest it is. in fact, the number of police killings is dropping. in 2015, during barack obama's presidency, 38 unarmed black americans and 32 whites were slain by police. overall totals have fallen since then and they have fallen far more dramatically for african-american men. last year was the safest year for unarmed suspects since "the washington post" began tracking police shootings. it was the safest year for both white and black suspects. at the same time, this country remains a dangerous place for police officers. 48 of them were murdered in 2019, according to fbi data. that's more than the number of

unarmed suspects killed of all races. brian: so tucker with a brilliant 30 minutes, again, like he has all week and his ratings reflect that just breaks down the logic and the facts behind the hysteria around the country. not only are cops asked to justify their behavior because of the behavior of a few, they are now out to take down a terrorist organization by all accounts, antifa. there is protesters. there is anger and then there is insurgency in our country looking to take it down. and our officers, like the nypd as respected up until recently as anyone in the country salary starting salary of $41,000. which after taxes should taking home like 18,000 in new york. let alone paying for rents and mortgages that are through the roof. now, antifa is dropping off bricks and pickaxes to attack cops and take out buildings and stores that have been shut down

by scientists and politicians who feel as though it's too dangerous to get too close but, yet, it's okay to riot and protest, shoulder to shoulder inches away from cops who have already gotten sick at a dizzying level. do you remember what whole thing called the pandemic? we are in the middle of it still. we have empty stores, forced to pay rent, who have now been ransacked. this combination was done by people who we elected into office and others who have been asked to protect us and now have been looked at as the bad guys in our country. instead of let's make it better. let's destroy it. while asking them to take down a terror organization called antifa, which represent, sadly, many in the next generation of americans. steve: while america's big city mayors say it's okay to protest, so many businesses and ainsley had this segment about an hour and 15 minutes ago. why is it okay for people to be

out protesting but businesses cannot reopen? a lot of people are looking in on this thursday morning, wondering what's up with that? meanwhile, straight ahead, andrew mccabe firing back at rod rosenstein after getting called out on capitol hill. watch this. >> mr. mccabe was not fully candid with me. certainly wasn't forthcoming. in particular, senator, with regard to mr. comey's memoranda. steve: congressman jim jordan reacts to that coming up next. do i use a toothpaste that whitens my teeth?

or one that's good for my teeth? now i don't have to choose. crest 3d white. it removes up to 95% of surface stains. and strengthens enamel. from the number one toothpaste brand in america. crest.

mr. mccabe was not fully candid with me. certainly wasn't forthcoming. in particular, senator, with regard to mr. comey's meranda, his interviews with the president and with regard to the fbi's suspicions about the president. brian: that was former deputy attorney general rod rosenstein. couldn't get out there quick enough. calling out the former fbi director andy mccabe over the russia probe. mccabe quickly firing back. will claims me or anybody else by the fbi are completely false. here to react ranking member of the oversight committee, house judiciary committee congressman jim jordan. congressman, you know this case as well as anyone, what's the most intriguing thing to come out of this and are you surprised mccabe and rosenstein disagree? >> no. i mean, look, somebody is not telling the truth because that former fbi council jim baker told us when we deposed him last congress in the judiciary committee that rod rosenstein was serious about wearing a wire and using the 25th amendment to

try to remove president trump from office. somebody is not being square and i guess maybe when you are engaged in this kind of wrong doing which happened at the upper levels of the fbi, maybe it's tough to keep your story straight. maybe that's the key take away here. so somebody is not telling the truth. i think senator graham will get to the bottom of it when he starts bringing all these people in to the hearings that he is having. brian: rosenstein responded to mccabe's comments said this i did not say that mr. mccabe mislead me. what i did say did he not reveal the comey memos to me for week. that is true. did he not reveal to me was having internal deliberations with his team on whether to target high profile people with his investigation source does make you feel better? >> the big take away yesterday remember who said when senator graham asked about was there any there there? he said no there wasn't. remember who is saying this. this is rod rosenstein. the number two guy at the justice department. the guy who at the time was

acting attorney general. rod rosenstein the guy who signed the fisa application renewal for carter page. rod rosenstein the guy who named bob mueller as the special counsel. rod rosenstein the guy who broadened the scope of the investigation. the guy who did all of that now says there wasn't anything there that's what we have been saying for three years. getting confirmation of that the top guy at the justice department saying there wasn't anything there he signed the fisa. named bob mueller special counsel and broaden the scope of investigation. that's the main problem here. they did this when there was no evidence to support undertaking this -- in fact, when we deposed jim comey, when he was -- after he was fired. he told us up until the day he was fired. so 10 months of investigation, july 31st, 2016, until may 29th. may 17th when he was fired. during that 10 months he still didn't know if they had anything. in other words they didn't have anything all that time and yet, rod rosenstein names bob mueller

as a special counsel and puts our country three years of what we went through. that's why people are upset about and this that's why we have got to get to the bottom of it all. brian: every request that mueller had would give to rosenstein, he would say no problem. take it, no problem. it was as if he wasn't interested in finding out if there is a reason for a fisa report or if this witness should be called or not. or should this be halted. he said he knew by july of 2017 there was nothing there. why wouldn't he just halt the investigation and stop the spigot? >> he was afraid. remember what the town was like in 2017. everyone in the press was clamoring for a special counsel we have got to do. this all the democrats was pushing for it. sessions had recused himself because he was afraid. in the end rod rosenstein was afraid. he was nervous. just caved to the pressure. every democrat wanted it. all the press wanted it and frankly half the republicans wanted it. rod rosenstein did the easy thing. instead of doing the tough thing he said i will put it to bob

mueller and bob mueller then became the special counsel investigation then became the insurance policy because then they knew they had two years of this investigation. two years farther out where they could cover up all the things that took place at the highest levels of the fbi with mccabe and baker, strzok and page and comey. brian: then you forgot the next one. let's do impeachment for the next three months and oh we have a pandemic and national unrest. it has not been an easy two and a half three years. jim jordan you have been there every step of the way. thank you so much. >> thank you, brian. brian: violent protests have spread across the country. one state was quick to respond and it worked. south dakota governor kristi noem on the future of policing in her state, next. effortless is the lincoln way. so as you head back out on the road, we'll be doing what we do best. providing some calm amidst the chaos. with virtual, real-time tours of our vehicles

as south dakota starts picking up the pieces following a violent response to -- quick response to violent protest. our next guest now turning the focus on the future of policing and what it should look like. south dakota governor republican kristi noem joins us right now. governor, good morning to you. >> good morning, steve. steve: i know you value peaceful protest, things were not peaceful sunday night. you had to activate the national guard. tell us what happened. >> well, free speech is a fundamental right. and you know, peaceful protest have their purpose. people protest when they feel like they are not being heard. what happened on sunday night is that i prestaged national guard troops in several different communities in south dakota so that they would be ready, if needed. and it was needed in sioux falls on sunday night. within minutes of the mayor asking for national guard troops, they were on the scene

and were able to shut down a lot of the violence going on. really what national guard did was come in and secure an area, so more law enforcement could move to where the crowd was at. it was incredibly important to be there on site and be ready to respond within a couple of minutes. steve: we are looking as you are speaking to me we are looking at video surveillance. i understand that the local law enforcement there in south dakota has released these videos to the public saying do you know who these people are who are doing the looting. apparently the phone is ringing off the hook in south dakota. people go yeah, i know that person. >> yeah, that's what's wonderful about south dakota. is that this whole situation upset them as well. one of the things i told the mayor that night is i said 99.9% of the people in south dakota made the right decision tonight. there is a few that didn't. and there will be consequences. and i think that's what is

incredibly important is that there has to be consequences for violent actions. it's not acceptable. it's unamerican. and that's one of the things that will make sure that if protests do go forward, that they are peaceful in the future and stop them from becoming violent. steve: you were with us about a month ago talking about the covid situation in south dakota, which had some spikes around some of the meat packing -- meat processing plants. it's interesting, you did not close the state as other states did follow suit. but then you have got, for instance, in new york. have you got the mayor, you have got the governor saying go ahead and go out there and protest but at the same time, they have kept new york city closed what do you see going on with that? because it seems to be an odd situation, doesn't it? >> well, the data and the facts on the ground don't support continuing those actions. here in south dakota we didn't close any businesses. we never issued a shelter in

place. we asked people to be personally responsible for taking carol of their families and asking the vulnerable people to stay home if they could. and we have continued to see a decline in infection rates. you know, we aren't even close to having people overwhelm our hospital systems. we just did not see what the models predicted. so, our people are doing well. i think our economy is doing much better because of the actions that we took. and, listen, there is no governor in this country that's trusted their people more than i have. i told them what the situation was, what actions they needed to take and they responded. and they have done it throughout every single situation that we have. and i think that it can be a model for what other governors can enact in their states as well. steve: sure. governor ainsley and brian are in new york where new york city continues to be locked down. they are still, i think, three days from away from phase one. i'm in new jersey. which is still on lockdown as

well. but the people in authority say it's okay to protest. go out there and protest. of course, peacefully. at the same time they are saying meantime you cannot reopen your business. yeah. i think what's frustrating to the american people. they remember the values, the principles that this country was founded on. and that goes in direct contrast to what they are seeing in their day-to-day lives in those parts of the country. i would just encourage people to really focus on what made this country special and one of the things i identified yesterday at my press conference is that, boy, focus on your family. i don't care what your family looks like. make it strong. this is the problem that we have in our country. we had ten 12-year-old kids out throwing rocks at cops. we have siblings that don't know their brothers and cities sisters out looting businesses. grandparents who grand kids are trying to ruin our way of life. take responsibility for your

family. step up, know where they're. get them home and make sure you are educating them about what makes america special. that's what we have forgotten. and in some of our leaders have forgotten that frankly, steve. and that's what is so disheartening. steve: um-huh. you make an interesting point. how many of america's parents wake up in the morning and look at the paper and there is one of their children right there who are involved in some sort of a violent protest. governor noem, thank you very much for joining us today. >> thank you, steve. steve: you bet, good luck. meanwhile, straight ahead on this thursday, we are going to switch gears. saints quarterback drew brees, that guy right there getting blitz this morning for saying he will never agree with people who disrespect the american will flag. former nfl cornerback scott turner joins to us play defense coming up next.

brian: first memorial service for george floyd will be held today in minneapolis. this as all four officers are involved in his death are now charged. steve: garrett tenney is right there in minneapolis. garrett, good morning. >> hey, good morning, y'all. we are learning more about what medical examiners found in their autopsy of george floyd, including the revelation that he tested positive for the coronavirus back in april. the county medical examiner's full report notes that covid-19 was not a factor in floyd's death though. the cause of death is listed as cardiopulmonary arrest and the report indicates floyd had blunt force injuries to his face, shoulders, hands, arms and legs. as that report was released just a few hours after new charges were filed against the four officers who were at the scene of floyd's death. derek chauvin who had his knee on mr. floyd's neck for nearly nine minutes has been charged with second degree murder.

other three officers have been charged with aiding and abetting second degree murder. those charges fall short of the first degree murder that demonstrators have been demanding. so there was a bit of mixed reaction to this news. >> it ain't enough until they are all behind bars for the rest of their life for what they did. >> i can't really say when the right time to leave the streets is people have to feel and this is a situation where they're expressing theirselves and feeling united with a community. you can't put a time limit on that. >> i'm not sure how many things need to be done and how many officers arrested for us to leave the street i know today right now we are celebrating but this still isn't enough for us. >> in terms of timing, minnesota attorney general keith ellison says this case will notten easy and it will likely take months for his office to finish its investigation. this afternoon though, a private memorial service will be held for george floyd here at north central university. it is an invitation only event

due to size restrictions due to the covid-19 pandemic. it will be streamed online, reverend al sharpton will be giving the eulogy and, again, his funeral will be held in houston on tuesday. back to y'all. ainsley: all right. thank you so much, gator. garrett let's bring in scott, the former nfl player. good morning to you. >> good morning, ainsley. thanks for having me. ainsley: you are welcome. as we have this memorial service today we 8 all be tuning in to that to remember george floyd. what do we need from our state and federal leaders to help with all of this one rest? we need everyone to understand the gravity and, you know, the situation that we have at hand and for our state and local leaders to understand this needs

to be dealt with. we know the administration have launched full investigations and the attorney general and those there in minnesota obviously are doing their job. but, for the federal, state and local leaders to use everything in their power and their resources to bring justice quickly, efficiently and make the decision that needs to be made. everyone needs to be held accountable for this horrific death plaintiff floyd that people in america would know that they can trust the justice system and that everyone, no matter your color or your ethnicity or creed will be safe when you are inside your house or outside of your house. to me, those things need to be done. they need to be done very efficiently and with regard to knowing the full situation that's happening in our country. brian: scott, do you trust the justice system? >> i do trust the justice system. hahas the justice system in my opinion done everything that it can do historically?

the answer is no. but it's the system that we have. improvements can be made to criminal justice and with the first step act and others that have been taken through the administration both now and in the future. i think that things need to be improved but as an american citizen, i have to trust the system that we have in place will protect myself, my family and the citizens of this country. and i will do everything i can to help that system improve and we need to have the right people in place to have the heart for justice, a heart for people and that's the way that the justice system will do what it is supposed to do as we have the right leaders both local, federal, state on every level to protect the people of this country. because that is our civic duty as servant leaders. steve: indeed. as a former nfl player. we wanted to get your point of view about drew brees, the quarterback for new orleans. yesterday he was on with yahoo

finance talking about what we have seen over the last couple of years with people who kneel during the national anthem and disrespect the flag, he says. here's his opinion and we will get yours next. >> i will never agree with anybody disrespecting the flag of the united states of america or our country. let me just tell you what i see or what i feel when the national anthem is played and when i look at the flag of the united states. i envision my two grandfathers who fought for this country during world war ii. steve: okay, so he comes from a patriotic rather a military family. he feels very patriotic. but he is getting criticized roundly on social media for that particular comment. what do you think, scott? >> you know what i think is that when the national anthem is played, you know, there is many things, many emotions that are

going on in the minds, the hearts and the lives of americans. when the national anthem is played, i believe that it is a sign of strength and solidarity when the players stand together this is time where we can show. we know that everything in our country is not perfect. we know that there is injustices. we know that there is equality issues that need to be met. but, as 23468 players, as professional players as a whole, i believe it shows a sign of strength when we stand in the midst of knowing what's going on in our country. it's a great example and witness for those that are watching the game that we're standing with strength for our country. some say it's for military. some patriotic. some say it's to stand for justice and injustices that are happening. on any job in america, i believe you don't have the opportunity to kneel when you go to work

because of the injustices. as nfl players, we play in the nfl. that's our sport. that's our job. that's the time to stand, a time to respect the blessing we have to play in the nfl. yes, to respect the flag. yes, to respect our military and the anthem. and i believe all the players are respectful of military and anthem in our country. but, to me, guys, that's the time to stand up and stand for what you believe and stand for the things that need to be done but really this battle is going to be won at the kitchen tables of america. the conversations that need to be had with the children and grandchildren and people have to take an inventory of their heart. is there any racism or dissension or hatred or bitterness in my heart? that's where it is going to start in the heart of every man. and then it will trickle out into society and community. that's where i stand and we have a lot of work to do but right now we need to stand together in unity as america and have those hard conversations and come up

with viable outcomes and solutions from the community out, from the federal government down and that's how we are going to win this battle to speak up to stand and then to value life. you know, we have to value the life of every american, every american citizen, no matter your color, your ethnicity, your social economic background. and i believe when we do these things, it's a long road ahead, we have dropped the ball and missed the mark on the eradication of the sin of racism in our country, and only god can change the heart of every man, but we as people together can influence the heart of those around us and so, guys, that's where i am and i understand. brian: i understand exactly what you are saying. i just think that anyone who knows drew brees and sees him from afar or up close to make him a bad guy, you are missing the mark and i don't think that's what you are saying here. >> he is not a bad guy. he is not a bad guy. brian: i think he is a great

guy. and i think he is a guy without bias, either. scott, thanks so much. i appreciate it. >> thank you. brian: go get them. days from opening its doors dental clinic who serves for under served families destroyed by rioters. that business owner reeling from the fallout joins us next. if you have postmenopausal osteoporosis and a high risk for fracture, now might not be the best time to ask yourself, 'are my bones strong?' life is full of make or break moments.

♪ ainsley: all right. welcome back. so we woke up this morning. we were all getting ready for the show. we are starting our shows earlier now throughout this week 5:00 a.m. we all got up at 2:30 this morning to turn on our tvs to see what the latest was. we learned there was an officer that was shot in brooklyn -- excuse me, stabbed in brooklyn. stabbed in the neck. did not hit the artery, thank goodness so he is still alive. two officers were shot in the hand. and then we watched this press conference of the commissioner of new york. the police commissioner dermot shea. and he also tweeted this morning. this is what he said. this is what our cops are up against. organized looters, strategically placing caches of bricks and rocks at locations throughout nyc. which is sign that it is organized and here's the video that he also posted look at this. these are the boxes bins full of those materials, steve and

brian. steve: you know, ainsley, that brings, you know, bricks and rocks in those blue canisters, that does not look like any construction material that i have ever seen. the police officers feel that those things, however, were stolen from construction sites and preplanned. the department of justice has told the d.e.a. to use the if you feel forces of the federal government to try to figure out exactly whether or not there is any coordination from evil doers to sow disorder. extremists trying to take advantage of the peaceful protest and co-opt it against violence against police officers. we saw this a couple days ago where people take down the signs and look at that, there is a pallet of bricks. >> they have a way of commune case. they have a way to use weapons.

sentiment the suspect grabbing this knife before going for the cop's gun. two other cops shot, all three officers are expected to survive they are all in the same hospital including the assailant steve: and it looks like they will all recover, brian. the violence aimed at police officers comes amid protests of course over the death of george floyd 10 days ago. all four of the officers in minneapolis have now been charged, ainsley. ainsley: protests continuing from coast to coast overnight from portland where thousands marched to the justice center, brian. brian: to our nation's capitol where hundreds gathered near the white house, chanting " george floyd matters." steve: but we start on the streets of new york city. lauren green is in the big apple as we learn the fbi terrorism task force is now investigating the latest officer attack. lauren? lauren: absolutely, steve and it

does bear repeating but this happened after the curfew after the 8:00 curfew last night three officers, three nypd officers were wounded in what police commissioner shea is calling a "completely cowardly unprovoked attack." two officers were patrolling the streets of brooklyn trying to protect local businesses from looting when a man approached them with a knife, stabbing one of the officers in the neck, fellow officers responded immediately, exchanging gunfire with the perpetrator. two officers were shot in the hands. all three wounded officers are in stable condition and expected to recover. the suspect was also shot and is in critical condition. now, more than 200 nypd officers have been injured in clashes with protesters and looters over the last several days. this week a sargent was struck by a black sedan in the bronx and another officer was beat up on the streets. the pba president pat lynch responding to the violence.

>> the only thing that comes to mind is question. are we surprised? are we surprised we're here in the hospital again? did we doubt because of the rhetoric we're hearing the anti-police rhetoric? all levels have to say it's going to end today, and then allow us to go out and do it. lauren: now commissioner shea is expected to give us an update later today. by the way they are going to be reviewing that body cam footage to kind of sort out the chaotic incident and like you said, steve, the fbi terrorism task force is now involved in this investigation. back to you. ainsley: thank you for the latest lauren. well the national guard is in our nations capitol this morning as protesters ramping up and griff jenkins joins us live from washington d.c. with the latest there. griff: ainsley good morning, things are quiet here over my shoulder just a few protesterses gathered at the fence line at

lafayette plaza but earlier this morning, protesterses remained overnight with fashions running really really hot. the national guard deployed out on the streets just absolutely keeping their cool, but keeping order. and there was a moment, ainsley, that was remarkable that spoke to humanity. it was a former d.c. national guard soldier, named wayne car m aiden. he was out here as the protester s were screaming obscenities in the guard's face and immediately, wayne would say "keep your bearing." now in the military, keeping your bearing is an encouragement to remain professional, to bring respect upon ones self and the military, he kept doing it and i asked him afterwards his thoughts here is what wayne had to say. >> the soldiers they didn't do nothing. it's the police brutality we need to focus on. it's not soldier, brutality, it's police brutality. i'm trying to explain it to my

fellow protesters who have a right to protest too. griff: now, while there was peace in the streets there's a war of words breaking out between the president and his former defense secretary jim mat tis. he is taken to the atlantic and writing this about president trump saying donald trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the american people, does not even pretend to try, instead , he tries to divide us, and also denouncing the use of the military forces in the nations capitol saying the president's visit to st. john's church violated the constitutional rights of protesters however the president firing back at mattis on twitter saying the only thing he and president obama had was the honor of firing mattis and he had personal public relations and i gave him a new life, things to do and battles to win but he seldom brought in the bacon and i didn't like his leadership style or much else

about him and many others agree, glad he is gone. all of this as the current secretary of defense, mark esper says he is not in favor of invoking the insurrect ion act and putting the active troops in the streets although let's keep a military basis in the d.c. area, we'll see where that goes and then we'll see whether or not mattis's criticism of the president was one-off or whether it will continue. ainsley, brian, steve? brian: yeah, don't be surprised if he goes to one of the sunday shows is, thanks, griff. let's bring in florida governor ron desantis trying to open up his state and putting up with a lot of criticism along the way but as successful as any in the 50 state union. first off governor, do you agree with general mattis that the president is basically abusing his office as a divider- in-chief and has no right to think about using the

military to bring some calm to our cities? >> no, i don't. i mean, i think that having respect for the rule of law, order in society is just the fundamental thing that has to be respected, and i think the president's right to insist on that and if you look at some of the big problems that's happened throughout the country it's when local officials have advocated their responsibility to maintain order, keep people safe from violence, looting, and rioting. ideally you would have it solved at the local level. when that fails you do have governors like me that have the ability to put national guard in play. we've done that in florida as a support. fortunately we fared much better than some of these other states on this , but if that fails in a state, then the federal government has the ability to come in and maintain order and so i think that has to be the case. you can not have a situation in which widespread looting and violence and arson is just allowed to go unabated.

steve: you know, governor, in new york, governor cuomo was highly critical of the police and of the mayor as well in how they handled things a couple of nights ago. obviously, the governor, the mayor, not on the same page necessarily with the police. are you completely on the same page with the police of florida? i mean, are they doing and approaching this the way you prefer or have they done some things that you wish they had not? >> oh, i think by and large they've done a really really good job. we've worked collaboratively with some of our local officials such as the mayor of miami-dade county, the city of miami and all these places and they all had an approach where we all support first amendment activity but that's assembling peacefully and the minute that that goes into any type of violence or looting that there needed to be

accountability so when that is happening in florida fortunately its been more sporadic here but you have had people arrested, and obviously you need accountability and so we've had a real collaborative effort here i did, early on, mobilize national guard and so they've been stationed in different parts of florida and they have gone out and actually deployed at the request of local official s. others have been on standby. we also have our state highway patrol that has quick response for us and is trained in riot resistance so they've been out on the scene as well so its been a collaborative effort and i think by and large, has done a lot better here than you've seen in some of the states that have been making a lot of the headlines. ainsley: let me ask you about reopening, because we first were dealing with covid and i understand that you're moving into phase ii tomorrow, what does that mean? >> well basically it's tracking the white house's guidelines. we're taking our 64 counties, other than the three south florida counties had is really where the bulk of our cases have

been this whole time, moving them into the phase ii, so some of this stuff we had already had open like daycare, youth camps, it does obviously we're going to continue with restaurants. we are now doing some of the limited bars according to those guidelines, and then have the ability to have some of the larger venues like a movie theatre with appropriate social distancing, so by and large in florida, businesses are allowed to operate. it's just a matter of what types of social distancing and sanitation but i think that that's a prudent approach and some of the areas that have just really held back, you're now in a situation where you have some states that are allowing massive protests but then you can't have somebody open up a small business where you have a few? it just doesn't work so i think that this is a good approach for us and we want to continue to move forward in a productive direction. brian: it is outrageous that you can't open up a bag shop,

you can't open up a restaurant, but you can have it raided by looters and we can't even keep them in jail. meanwhile, the rnc is picking up stakes and leaving north carolina. you made it clear last week that florida can do this in in august if given the opportunity. what's your message to the rnc, as well as president trump? how would you do it? would you allow a full force? would you allow a stadium to be packed? >> so, you know, this is almost three months away about two and a half months away. the shape of the epidemic is just simply going to be different and hopefully it's a lot better but i think we'll be able to make those decisions about what precautions need to be taken as you get closer but to just rule out a convention at this stage, i think, is a mistake so we've said we want to get to yes on it and i think we'll be able to do it. i think if you look throughout the world you haven't seen second waves in any of these

places, so you know, we're prepared for that obviously but it very well maybe we get into august and the prevalence of this thing is much lower in which case you'd have the ability to do some of these things. you also have the ability, heck you could test all the delegates you could have certain other safety so there's things you could do in my view on all of this from the beginning has been not even just a convention but okay we understand there's a virus. what can we do to be able to have activity in a way that's safe to just say no to everything, i don't think is going to work so we want to be able to do it and i think we could do it in a safe way and guess what the president is the incumbent president. he's got people in his administration who deal with this safety stuff every day. i'm sure they are going to be able to have ways to make sure that people stay safe. the last thing you'd want is delegates go and end up getting ill but there's ways we can do it so we want to get to yes on it has basically been my message let's be creative and figure out a way to do it.

steve: well that is really good news for the doocey family because my daughter is supposed to get married august 1 and she would like to have an event in florida with dancing and people around, social distancing of course, whatever that looks like for weddings going forward, so it sounds like your optimistic. >> yeah, and you know, what we've done in phase ii, according to the white house guidelines, the recommendation, it's 50 people groups, but if you do more, you have people doing things like temperature checks, i was at universal studios yesterday making this announcement. they're now open at least for the passholders they are open to the general public i think tomorrow and they are doing temperature checks and they have people wearing, so there is all kinds of things people are doing to keep people safe so we want to be able to allow people to have options and really trust people to make good decisions. i think that is really the best posture to be in. ainsley: we're glad you're opening up because we all want to go to that wedding too. we're ready to have some fun and

try and get out of the house. governor what's separating your state from all of these other states? why are you able to do this and other states are not? >> well i think there's a lot of states that are. we looked at georgia, colorado about some of the things they opened very early that we had not done, so we followed it seemed like it worked well. we really learned from a lot of those other states you look at the state of texas so i think there's been a lot of states that have done well and some states like south dakota that really never missed a beat so we've been one of the leaders but i think some of the other states i think its been a little bit more about politics from what i can tell. some of the measures that we're in place, clearly from a health perspective, florida has done better per capita than a lot of these states but yeah at the end of the day, getting people back to work is important. continuing to focus on safety, you know, we've done even more with long term care facilities that's gone on. that was one of our focuses from the beginning i think it was the right focus and if people

look back they wish other states had done what we had done but we're continuing to do a lot of that and even adding more to it and so they really go hand in hand. you can work to protect folks, and you can also work to put people back to work. brian: yeah, that's key. we're not getting that from every governor, governor ron desantis, thanks so much. >> thank you. ainsley: thank you. brian: coming up straight ahead it was just days from opening its doors and now a dental clinic which cares for under served families destroyed by rioters that business owner reeling from this fallout, he will join us next. i got an oriole here.

the covid-19 closure. doctor ali barbari, he's the owner of the chicago lake family dental clinic in minneapolis. good morning to you, doctor. >> good morning, thank you for having me. ainsley: good morning. you know, i know that you first had to close for two months because of covid. two days away from reopening, and this happens to you. rioters come into your dental practice and take almost everything, right? >> right. ainsley: tell me more about what happened? >> it was friday night when my security alarm system the company called me and told me that the alarm went off. before anything, i grabbed my cell phone and i started watching the cameras and i saw these people just going to the office, breaking into the office , looting everything, vandalizing everything, and just taking everything out of the

office. they asked me if i needed police and i said yes, please. as fast as possible and after a few minutes they told me unfortunately the police wouldn't be able to make it until 6:00 a.m. in the morning and i thought that was terrible. you know i was just watching these people taking everything, and a few minutes later, the smoke detector went off and then they called me again and they said do you need the fire department and i said yes, please. i said i can see smoke in my clinic and then after just a few minutes they called me again that unfortunately the fire department can't make it until 6:00 a.m. and i thought that was a loss of everything. ainsley: so i understand you're about a mile away from where george floyd died and you served the under privileged, you serve the people that don't have insurance, you serve children, so these looters are hurting that community. how are you going to rebuild?

>> it was very unfortunate. it's a lot for me, it's a lot for my business and employees and the community. you can imagine people have been waiting for two months for us to come back and serve them and now , out of nowhere, we have this big challenge and then the patients have to wait more, so it's very unfortunate and it's going to take a lot of time and be tough but we'll start rebuilding as fast as possible and go back to the communities and serve them with the best care as possible. ainsley: i understand you have a gofundme page. how much have you raised and what's your goal? >> it's going well. i mean, we set it at 200,000 just because we have expensive dental equipment. it's going slow, but it's going well and i appreciate any support from everyone. ainsley: what's the gofundme page called? >> it's called chicago lake dental.

ainsley: what are these rioters going to do with your dental equipment? >> you know it's kind of funny. unfortunately a lot of the equipment that they took gets vandalized. there was a laser machine that i saw in front of the office, very heavy. i'm sure they had no idea what that machine was and it was just completely broken so it's kind of, i was kind of angry and at the same time, you know, kind of sense of humor to see these people just taking everything not knowing what they're taking and then either you want to take it to the black market and sell it or just vandalize it and make it useless. ainsley: real quickly, are you able to identify these people, will the police help you with that because you have them on video? >> unfortunately the police is very overwhelmed. i haven't gotten a report yet. i have my surveillance camera. i'm not sure if i'll get help but keep in mind that recent numbers indicate that 80% of the

looters in minneapolis are out of the state. not from the community. not from minneapolis, not from minnesota. ainsley: yeah, thank you so much , doctor. we wish you the best with rebuilding and hope you get some more money to get your goal and open the doors again. god bless you, thank you. 24 minutes after the top of the hour still ahead he grilled rod rosenstein about the russia probe. >> if you knew then what you know how would you have signed the warrant application? >> no i would not. who are we to hold responsibility you're saying it's not you? >> no i'm saying senator that i'm accountable for it. ainsley: senator lindsey graham says it's the first step in a very long journey to get answers he's coming up.

ainsley: we're back with quick headlines beginning with a fox news alert an alaska man is charged with laundering nearly $1 billion for iran through the you arab emirate. according to court documents anchorage resident kenneth don created fake invoices to help iran get cash from south korean banks and he's behind bars in south korea after getting convicted and federal prosecutor s want him to stand trial in the u.s. as well. >> georgia leaders calling for peace as the men accused of

murdering amad arbery are headed to court today. they claim they thought he was a burglary suspect and his family says he was out jogging. william brian, the man who film ed the incident also charged with murder. steve? steve: thank you. peaceful protests in the city of detroit overshadowed reportedly by out of town looters and rioters causing chaos in the community. 127 people were arrested during protests on tuesday night, 80 of the 127 lived outside the city with six coming from out of state. maryland, california, washington d.c., and new york. ainsley: here with more is the detroit police chief james craig. good morning to you, chief good to see you again. >> good morning good to see you and thanks for bringing me on your show. ainsley: you're welcome we love detroit. it's mo-town, it's motor city, many of us have visit, the

pistons we love your city. we want that city to stay safe. what is your message to these out of town looters? >> well for these outside coordinated professional agitators, they do not represent detroit and in fact they aren't welcome in detroit. it was really touching yesterday the number of community members came out and one voice police in the community standing together in unison saying go home. we don't want you here, and so that gives you an idea when you look at what's been going on in the last three days in detroit thank god we haven't had the type of destruction of property, the violence directed at our police officers. we did have one of our command officers injured by a hurling boulder, but other than that, we've been able to manage for some many reasons. i've got to say this and i think it's important to say in addition to the relationship with our community and certainly the stellar efforts by the men and women of the detroit police department, the mayor and i are

on the same page. we talk often, he trusts my professional judgment, and we execute. and that's so important. i've had a chance to work another city and that's not always been the case, but not so in detroit. brian: right. so chief i'm wondering how you feel about these police movement s across the country. its worked in los angeles, the mayor already said. i have a good idea i'm not going to give you the 7% increase, not talking about salary but talking about overall. how do you feel about defunding law enforcement? is that going to help things? >> no it's not going to help things what happens and i'll use this city, is not defunding the police. it's really building that bridge in the community. we're not going to always agree, and many of our local activists we don't agree but we come to the table with a common goal of keeping our city safe but de funding the police is certainly not the answer.

it's almost just that we don't need the police. we absolutely need the police and most detroiters know that and so that's why last night we did something very different. there was a peaceful protests. yes we had a curfew and certainly i exercised my judgment and i told the mayor what i planned to do, because it was peaceful, not one to enforce the curfew, and i'll tell you, the goal is the same tonight we'll do it. we're not seeing looting. we're not seeing burning and destroying of property, and the attacks of police officers. that's not to say that we're not watchful and i think what i left out very important at the top of my remarks is i really want to just send my prayers out to the nypd on the two officers that were shot last night and one that was stabbed, so happy to hear that they are going to recover from their injuries by

this cowardly attacker. steve: you know, because you just mentioned that, chief we've got a list of a number of the law enforcement members who have been injured in the line of duty over the last 10 days or so trying to keep people safe. when you see this scrolling up it must break your heart to think that they're just trying to enforce the laws of the land and yet there are people and you just mentioned some out-of-towners who come to your place with no good in their heart. >> no good at all and it does break my heart. you know, i love our and women across this nation. certainly the worker the detroit police are doing throughout this crisis. we are still on the heels of covid-19 and we're still fighting this invisible enemy and now dealing with the outside agitators. i've got to tell you, special magic is going on in detroit as

we have community members that are embedded and they aren't going to tolerate these outsiders coming into our city and creating violence. they aren't going to tolerate it ainsley: chief thank you so much for your message. still ahead, we have lindsey graham, you're welcome thank you for your service too, lindsey graham is coming up stay with us these are extraordinary times, and we want to thank the extraordinary people in the healthcare community, working to care for all of us. at novartis, we promise to do our part. as always, we're doing everything we can to help keep cosentyx accessible and affordable. if you have any questions at all, call us, email us, visit us online. we're here to help support you when you need us. take care, and be well. to learn more, call one eight four four cosentyx or visit cosentyx.com

>> last year the post logged a total of 1,004 killings and of the 802 shootings in which the race of the police officer and suspect was noted, 371 of those killed were white. 236 were black. the vast majority were armed, overall there were a total of precisely 10 cases in the united states, last year, according to the washington post, in which unarmed african americans were

fatally shot by the police in two of those cases, the officer was criminally charged. is it possible that more of these officers should have been charged? of course it is possible. justice is not always served that's for sure, but either way, this is a very small number in a country of 325 million people. this is not genecide. it's not even close to genecide. it is laughable to suggest it is in fact, the number of police killings is dropping, in 2015 during barack obama's presidency, 38 unarmed black americans and 32 whites were slain by police. overall totals have fallen since then and they have fallen far more dramatically for african americans men. last year the safest year for unarmed suspects since the washington post began track ing police shootings. it was the safest here for both whites and mrs. suspects. at the same time, this country remains a dangerous place for police officers.

48 of them were murdered in 201a that's more than the number of unarmed suspects killed of all races. brian: all right let's bring in senator lindsey graham to talk about tax senator, what's the state of law enforcement in this country since the killing of george floyd last week? >> it's pretty much more siege by liberal politicians don't seem to be very supportive of our cops in places where the police are getting beat up and run over but there's something i want you to think about. those numbers are compelling but tim scott is a dear friend of mine, an african american republican senator from south carolina. he's been stopped six or seven times on capitol hill. i've never been stopped. if you go and talk to your african american friends they will tell you they tell teenager

s and young adults if the cops stop you keep your hands-on the wheel, don't reach for the glove compartment say yes, sir or no, sir, so i've come to believe that young black men rightly or wrongly perceive the police to be a threat when many times they're not but we've got to deal with that problem and if we don't, be honest with the problem, and we're never going to make progress. brian: i just don't think destroying fifth avenue in manhattan is the way to do it. >> i couldn't agree with you more. brian: we can't have the conversation when the cops are sitting there with riot shields trying to rationalize how to crack down and bring calm back to every major city in this country, so your points well taken though. it's going to be happening with dialogue with law enforcement itself, but right now, they can't get ahead of this violence that is destroying this country. now talk about destroying the country that's who general

mattis is doing and now retired, but he writes donald trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the american people, does not even pretend to try and instead he tries to divide us, he joined the military 50 years ago to defend the constitution never did i dream the troops doing the same oath be ordered to violate those constitutional rights and he's talking about possibly using military troops to bring calm to our cities. where do you stand here? >> well number one general mattis as the right to express himself because he's served the country over a long period of time put himself at risk for the nation, but the one thing i would tell general mattis that from the time president trump wakes up to go to bed there's an effort to destroy his presidency that george w. bush and george h. w. bush 41 used

the military to support the police in los angeles after the rodney king verdict, and the insurrection act has been used but sparingly used, nobody wants to send active duty troops into american cities unless they are invited and absolutely necessary, but i would say that governor cuomo should have called out the national guard early on and i would ask general mattis to look at the behavior of the politicians in these cities and see if you can find fault with them. it is so fashionable to blame president trump for every robin america and he could be a handful and can he do better yes , but the problems we have in america today weren't caused by donald trump and hopefully, he can help the nation heal some of these problems. brian: yeah, i believe there was baltimore i think with the siege in baltimore, i don't think you can blame president trump on that but what about ferguson?

>> well i can go, what about this and what about 1968? the problem i've tried to be honest with you, african american men, when they see a cop car behind them, have a different view than what i see a cop car behind me. i don't worry about getting beat up by the cops i worried did i speed, what did i do wrong? there's a perception out there, over time if you're a young african american male, you've got to watch it with the cops and we need to get to the bottom of that, community policing can help solve that. there's no reason to beat up a cop, or riot or burn down buildings to try to make america a better place. you make america a better place by having a conversation and take constructive actions. to general mattis, i think you're missing something here, my friend. you're missing the fact that the liberal media has taken every event in the last three and a half years and laid it at the presidency. i'm not saying he's blameless but i am saying you're buying into a narrative that i think is quite frankly unfair.

brian: right and let's pivot to what you did yesterday around 10:00 you spoke to rod rosenstein. what did you get from that conversation and want the american people who missed it to glean from it? >> i got nobody on the democratic side gives a damn about this. they asked me and grassley and senator tillis to support legislation to make sure mueller could not be fired except without cause, to investigate everything trump. for two and a half years, everything trump, his family, businesses were looked at by mueller, and what have we learned rod horowitz, the people in charge of the mueller investigation manipulated evidence, withheld ex call politico tar it information from the court and got court warrants against carter page illegally and reprimanded by the fisa court, general flynn's case was recommended to be dropped on january 4 because there was no

evidence he was colluding with the russians and comey and obama kept it going so here is what i think. i think the democratic party is the one who colluded with the russians and christopher steele was paid for by the democratic party a former british agent who got a russian sub-source who was connected to the russian intelligence community and they created a document against donald trump that is a bunch of lies and garbage and they got the fisa court to use that document to issue a warrant four times against carter page and rosenstein said if i knew this then i wouldn't have signed the warrant. if i knew then what i know now i wouldn't have signed the warrant and oh, by the way now that i know this there's no reason to expect flynn, carter page or george papadopoulos working with the russians that's the case why did it take two and a half years? to my democratic colleagues the rule of law can't be a tool to be used for your purposes. it can't be a tool to be used for partisan purposes. its got to apply to both parties and i'm hoping at least there will be some interest by the democratic party of trying

to explain to the american people how carter page's life was turned upside down, how the fbi and the department of justice could lie to the court over and over, and have some interest in finding out how it happened and stopping it. brian: senator lindsey graham thanks so much. look forward to the next chapter as we try to unwind this and we will be paying attention. appreciate it. meanwhile, a fox news alert now the weekly jobless claims report is out. 1.9 million people filing for unemployment last week. nearly 43 million people have lost their jobs due to the pandemic. up next, one business owner sending looters a sign after they ransacked his store. don't lock your doors tighter. open your hearts wider. but first let's check in with sandra smith for what's on her show. >> sandra: and brian, good morning to you, good morning all another night of unrest as two police officers are shot one stabbed in new york city. an update on their condition coming up. plus, a battle brewing between president trump and his former defense secretary, james mattis,

"don't lock your doors tighter, open your hearts wider." that owner of soul classics and former ohio state football captain joins us right now, good morning to you. >> good morning, thanks for having me. steve: thank you very much foretelling us about your business and you know, we need to start at the very beginning and that is this is a business you have the opportunity to buy about 10 years ago and it was a small business and you were the only employee for a couple of years and then you were able to hire two people and now you've expanded to two locations and a total of i think 12 people

so congratulations. you've done a good job and then you get a call from adt the other night and what did they tell you? >> i was in the middle of trying to take a nap and re charge my batteries a little bit before i headed back down to the shop and i get the call, i know the 1-800 number pretty much by heart now and first thing i always say is are you aware that the store is alarm is going off and then would you like to send police in, and you know my heart dropped but i said yes and i headed out. steve: yeah, and it had to be heartbreaking, because you put your blood, sweat and tears into that business and then i understand your neighbor, somebody across the way had video that showed what happened. tell us what happened. >> well, i mean yes, initially i was upset. as you're in the car, you're imagining the worst. you're thinking all of the same things you just brought up however when i got there, it was very hard to play the victim.

there was so much love going around. i was able to immediately remove myself from the situation and understand the bigger picture that was going on so yes, neighbors came from the wood works, everybody had video and photos, and it really was a testament to how strong our community is, however it was not about me or my shop, so i didn't get a chance to harp on it too much. steve: right and so you posted don't lock your doors open your hearts wider and when you did that, that opened the flood gates essentially and you heard from everybody about that. tell us that. >> yeah, its been pretty surreal. the message was to reach my community. it didn't afford to be a national thing or even receive as much attention as it has but my thing is we have the first time in history we get a chance to disengage from sports, from outside distractions and we all

get a chance to focus on one issue which is repairing the relationship with the police which is police reform and accountability, so you know, to be able to spread that message, to be able to tell people just to relax a little bit because it's not about what happened in soho or the short north. even though it's tragic i'm not excusing it, it's still you have to understand that we will gain money and repair this stuff but let's push forth a bigger issue. steve: indeed and the bigger issue and i know there are a lot of people who are protesting about police brutality i get that but what would you like to say obviously that was a message that you put on the outside of your store. what would you like to say to the people that actually broke in? >> well you know, i've been reaching out. i want to talk to them and let them know don't put yourself in jeopardy. a lot of times, i coach high school football so i understand the youth and you don't have anything to lose at this moment, but you don't want to put yourself in jeopardy down the line or in the future so we

have an opportunity to ruin everything that we have as adults by one decision we make as a teen or a young adult , so that be my message moreso don't ruin your life or give yourself a chance to ruin your life because you want to make a decision in haste steve: exactly,dionte thank you very much for joining us good luck to for your rebuilding. >> thank you. steve: you bet. we'll step aside and be right back. a lung cancer diagnosis can leave you holding your breath. ♪ but bristol myers squibb is working to change things. by researching new kinds of medicines that could help you live longer. including options that are chemo-free. because we're committed to bringing new hope into lung cancer care.
