>> on this early addition of "fox and friends first" peaceful protests spend the nation for 10 straight night but tensions run high in new york city is police crackdown on curfew, 10,000 arrested since the protests began. todd: the mayor of dc with dozens of national guardsmen from the hotel they were staying between long-term shifts protecting the nation's capital. protesters without curfews carry on through thunderstorm and mourners remember george floyd with tributes. >> he would stand up for any

injustice. please say his name. jillian: team coverage coast-to-coast. matt finn, jeff paul monitoring the protests out west but we begin live in new york city. what is the latest? >> it was a long day of protests in new york city that began with a vigil in brooklyn for george floyd. the marchers them making their way across the brooklyn bridge led by harris floyd who denounced distraction caused by buddhist agitators and encouraged peaceful protesters to continue their fight for justice. police protesters tonight, there was a third native the 8:00 pm curfew and more altercations

between police and peaceful protesters as they were enforcing the it p.m. curfew, protesters and activists say this 8:00 pm curfew needs to go away because it is causing altercations between police and peaceful protesters and that's not helping the situation in new york where tensions are running high. last night we talked about an officer who was stabbed in the neck on anti-looting duty in brooklyn. we now know the fbi joint terrorism task force is investigating the motive behind that attack. we still do not know but nypd commissioner dermot shea said anti-police rhetoric needs to stop and he really called out elected officials for not saying enough in speaking out against this anti-police rhetoric which he believes has fueled the violence which we've seen more than 200 officers injured, from

bricks being thrown, officers being hit by cars and term it shea believes this needs to stop because violence has hit up either pitch. take a listen. >> how do we move forward? i do not know how we will get there. i wish i had the answers but i know this much, we cannot reach that place until we end the heat hateful speech and the lawbreaking and the unprovoked attacks against police officers and the rhetoric that fuels them. >> this is a disturbing video, yesterday in buffalo a 75-year-old man was pushed to the ground by two police officers as they cleared a street of curfew violating protesters, he had his head on the pavement, you can see the blood in the video and police officers walked right past him.

he is in stable but serious condition. the buffalo pd said he had tripped and fell. that obviously was not the case. the buffalo police commissioner suspending these officers without pay. independent investigation of the way the mayor of buffalo said police, that this was a disheartening situation and governor andrew cuomo called it unjustified and utterly disgraceful. >> overnight protest in los angeles remained peaceful with no curfew in place. >> it all comes as the mayor double down on calls to cut millions from the police department's budget. jeff paul joining us in los angeles, what's the latest? >> another night of peaceful protests as about 1000 demonstrators gathered in downtown los angeles just outside city hall, the first time since saturday the there is no curfew put in place. they were speeches and at times

the group broke away for march through the street but no major clashes to report with law enforcement standing by and watching from a distance. there was another protest outside their it garcetti's house. demonstrators are pushing for police reform and lapd to lose funding, the mayor pledged to cut 100-$150 million from the police budget which before the protests was such to increase by $120 million. the seaplanes to repurpose a quarter of $1 billion to where demonstrators have pointed out this funding. other than that there other protests to report throughout southern california, there were ones in long beach and santa clarita but no major issues to report.

todd: emotions running high minneapolis his family and loved ones honor george floyd's life. >> the immediate changes possibly coming to the city's police department. >> reporter: minneapolis the council will hold an emergency meeting in which they will begin the process of dismantling the police department in this city, this comes just one day after a memorial service for george floyd in which family members spoke with reverend al sharpton gave a eulogy and celebrity like kevin hart attended. george floyd's brother and other family members spoke about their lost loved one. >> that connected us, try not to be said. this is a lot harder than i thought it would be. >> amazing that he touched so many people's parts. we want justice for george, he's going to get it. >> this morning for three police

officers aside from derek chauvin are being held on $1 million bail and later this morning the minnesota department of human rights and the minneapolis civil rights director is scheduled to brief city council on the state's investigation into the police department over potential racism. three city councilmembers have not publicly twitter or spoken about their intent to dismantle the minneapolis police department with without the mayor as an ally. lisa bender tweeted hours ago, quote, yes, we are going to dismantle the minneapolis police department and replace it with a transformative new model of public safety and all across the city there are posters, signs, spray painting saying abolish the police, do not call the police because they harm minority groups and others. >> thank you. new york governor andrew cuomo flip-flopping his stance on nypd policing.

>> the police in new york city were not effective at doing their job last night, look at the videos. it was a disgrace. they've treated police officers with such disrespect in new york city that i am stunned. todd: this after a string of violent clashes between citizens and police the left officers in the hospital. how does this inconsistency from leadership impact police? >> from on johnson joins us, thank you for your time, we appreciate it. that was a difference of two days, the clips you heard from the governor. what kind of impact does that messaging have wanted changes so quickly? >> very large police force, they have to know their leaders, the

governor and mayor is behind them 100%, they put their lives on the line every day, they need a mayor and governor that has their back when they are doing their job. this is a difficult job. >> let me show you some stats and get your thoughts on this. this is over a 4 to 5 day period, 16 officers shot, 300 plus officers injured and one death. in light of those stats in this inconsistency from the leadership at highest levels of the state, those numbers that i said were nationwide but governor cuomo -- how do you approach your job if you are one of these men? >> we have to do our best to protect the citizens, you have sworn to protect the citizens, you have to do your job regardless of criticism from the

governor or the mayor or anyone else and that is what the police officers are doing, the new york city police department is the best police department and the nation and i have to work with them and stand by them in their difficult job. >> to play fair for both sides and broaden this out not just in new york but not just to be nypd but all of new york all over the country, we saw the video that came in the one of our reporters showed us a couple minutes ago of the officers in buffalo where they knocked down a man in his 70s and he was seen on the pavement, you are seeing in this video right now, is there more that can be done in the police department's to be fair here that more officers can be held accountable for actions like this? >> disagreements act, that person the 75 years old and that type of -- they didn't have to do that, too much force used and

that's the type of thing that makes police officers look bad. they have to understand everything is being filmed nowadays what you have to have the character to know even when you don't know you're being filmed you have to do the right thing. todd: having been in the nypd yourself i'm sure you've heard this call that was reported on the top of the news broadcast to defund police department nationwide, you heard it in minneapolis. what would happen in new york city if the police department were defunded? >> the streets would run wild, you would have anarchy, you would have unrest, you would have lawlessness across the state and the city, that would be very inappropriate, that would not be a wise thing to do. everyone wants to have the well policed state and that would be the worst thing possible. >> thanks for your time and

insight, we appreciate it. >> thank you for having me. >> time is 11 minutes after the hour. a navy veteran held hostage by iran is freelancing on us soil overnight. yet another american that donald trump has helped bring him. >> the president is taking a risk in pushing these releases and it is paying off. he joins us next. are you sick and tired of looking and feeling heavy? probioslim promotes healthy digestion and helps you lose weight. patented probiotics ease constipation, gas, and bloating, while powerful egcg burns fat and calories. unleash your potential with probioslim, the #1 probiotic fat burner at walmart. as the covid-19 pandemic sweeps the world we urgently need your help.

>> i been semi-free since they let me go on furlough but i extend my thanks to donald trump for his efforts diplomatically and otherwise making america great again. >> us navy veteran michael whiteback on american soil after being detained by the iranian government since 2018 touchdown hours ago. >> the president welcoming a little after two month of negotiation between the state department and the rogue regime.

joining us to weigh in is president of security studies in former us army special forces jim hansen, good to see you this morning. how big a moment is this? >> it's fantastic. i don't think there are many things that give all as much as much joy as seeing someone who was in captivity in the hands of a horrific regime like iran coming back home. there is a feeling you get when your feet touch us oil again, people kissing the ground. in the midst of all the horrors that are going on right now i think people should take a moment to remember we live in one of the greatest countries in the world and the police that operate in the us are so much better than the ones taking care of and hurting people like this guy in iran and other places. >> what does it take to pull off something like this? >> donald trump has become personally invested in using all aspects of us power to get these people free.

we don't want to reward people who do something like take a us hostage, kidnapped in american, rogue states that use these people as marketing tools but we also don't want to leave these americans as ponds so he uses financial pressure, he uses intelligence sources, uses allied military forces and our cia has been involved in setting upgrades to free americans that were held captive so there's a ton of ways us power can be used in donald trump uses all those and his personal power to make things like this happen. >> you are seeing that list on your screen of all the people who have been brought home under this administration which is truly incredible. here's what the president has to say, great to have michael home, just arrived, very exciting, thank you for iran, don't wait until after your selections to make the big deal. i'm going to win, make a better deal now. your thoughts on that?

>> donald trump loves to use anything he can in his part of the dealmaking with tyrants and rogue regimes around the world and is cognizant of the fact that sometimes they tried to wait people out, when the iranian's had hostages during the carter regime they released them before president reagan. the situation where he's willing to go ahead and signal to other people we are currently negotiating with say it is not like someone else is going to come in and you are going to get a softer deal or more of what you want. i'm still going to keep the pressure on so do it now and don't make me put the screws to you even harder. >> does this exchange and the president's tweet in general signal anything to you going forward about us/iranian relations or is this just a one

off? >> it would be nice to think this was a thaw in relation with the mullahs and somehow there's going to be a way we could go and make a deal with them or get back to a more productive relationship. i don't have a lot of faith in the mullahs. i think they are a malevolent force overall. i think donald trump is going to make every effort he can because the ideal situation is for them to make a deal in the best interests of the united states and to hold up their end of that deal. if that can be done people try to do it and if not he's prepared to take harsher measures and do what is necessary to keep us safe. jillian: thank you for joining us, have a good day. >> time now 20 minutes after the hour. chaos in columbus, visiting businesses across ohio's capital including our next guest. >> he wants 70,$000 in merchandise in just one night. 11 years of savings gone. his message to the looters when he joins us live.

at that time? >> thank you for having me. what was going through my mind is 11 years of my life that just lost in the blink of an eye. >> 70,$000 in merchandise, sewing machines, irons, mannequins, mirrors all taken. you said these protests reminded you of what happened in egypt when you were there. explain that. >> i was part of protests since 1999 in egypt. we had a good cause but sometimes people jumped on that protest and started looting, started chaos and what we did as protesters at the time, we created human chains to protect businesses that are part of the city, part of us. unlike what happened this time

here it was just -- i couldn't really tell who was protesting and who was there just for the fun and who was there for looting. it was a mixed message. >> you say you forgive people who took clothing if they needed it. why? >> my background is not wealthy. i went through that time. i know how it feels to be in need. the ones who stole because they need it i forgive them. the ones that were a just, the criminals were the ones that were there for fun i do not. it is hard to forgive when

somebody takes your things away but i choose love over hatred. todd: what is your message to the looters? >> it is not really helping anything. it is not helping the cause. it is not helping the city. even the ones in the minority, black minority and they lost their jobs. we have no business. this is not helping anyone. other than the ones looting of course. heather: thank you for being here. the stories 89 and pine. if you want to help them out go to that go fund me, 89 and pine in columbus, ohio. we wish you the best of luck, hopefully will get back on your feet shortly, appreciate your

todd: massive peaceful protests across the nation honoring george floyd. 32,000 national guard troops now activated in 32 states to keep the peace. jillian: tensions running high as officers crack down, 10,000 arrests have been made since the protests began. earlier in new york thousands attended a memorial for george floyd.

>> his brother terrence was there supporting the family while slamming rioters causing chaos throughout the nation. >> i'm proud of the protests but i'm not proud of the destruction. my brother wasn't about that. the floyds is a god-fearing family. >> the ground turning their backs as bill diblasio took the stage before booming his speech. >> we have to make a change in this city of this country. i thank you for being here. >> after the memorial crowds marched across the brooklyn bridge closing it down. hundreds of national guard's in washington dc may be getting evicted. the mayor is kicking them out of their hotel as they work to keep

the city safe. >> mark meredith joins us in the nations capital as hundreds protest in the rain overnight. >> reporter: a stormy night overnight in washington, the bad weather leading to a lightning strike that injured two firefighters -- two military personnel. dc fire says they were taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. the bad weather did not stop people from going out to protest last night, we saw those people out marching across washington dc and interesting to see if we will see more protests heading into this weekend, donald trump is expected to spend the weekend in washington and the white house has been adding extra security across the perimeter and around the old executive office building next to the white house. this is the attorney general says outside groups may continue to try to so discord over george floyd's death. >> we have evidence antifa and other similar extremist groups

as well as actors of a variety of different political persuasions have been involved in instigating and participating in the violent activity. >> critics of the president's response demand more accountability from the white house about its tactics in securing the nation's capital. two senate democrats introduced legislation that would require law enforcement officers and military personnel identify which branch they are representing. >> our nations capital is being patrolled by federal officers commanded by donald trump and william barr who refused to identify who they are and where they come from. what is donald trump doing to this democracy? >> reporter: the controversy comes as senior senators is troops from his state back in utah are being forced out of the dc hotel because of politics.

>> they are being effected. the office of the mayor of the city of washington as into their contract, they will get off at 10 am tomorrow. i'm told at that point they will have to go gather their things and find another place to stay because the mayor's office cancel their contract, that's not right. >> reporter: we will see of dc's mayor response to that later today. she has not kept quiet showing her displeasure with donald trump's response to these protests and that dc never asked any other state to send their national guard troops to help with security. back to you. >> calls are growing for major cities across the nation to cut police funding in response to the death of george floyd. todd: rob schmidt joins us with the push. >> we seen a picture of what an out-of-control society look like from earlier this week and it didn't seem to faze many

liberals, there are widespread calls to defund the police from a lot of leftist voices, black lives that are calling for a national defunding of police saying we demand investment in our communities and resources to ensure black people not only survive but thrive. in new york covid-19 budget shortfalls compared with an anti-push from the left, the nypd to provide the 7% cut the city's comptroller who wants to be the next mayor in 2021 wants more demanding over $1 billion be taken from the nypd and handed out to, quote, vulnerable communities. in los angeles liberal mayor eric garcetti could end up slashing the lapd's $1.8 million budget by $150 million. garcetti and other liberal leaders around the country bending to pressure from the far left. >> want you to know we will not be increasing our police budget. how can we at this moment? those dollars need to be focused on our black community here in los angeles.

>> i understand the frustration and the sentiment. >> the youth of our country are going to take up the lead. >> michigan governor gretchen what were understanding the sentiment, the president linking this to the next election, police groups break with biden, his handlers want him to defund the police. i want more money from our enforcement. minneapolis public schools, minnesota parks and the university of minnesota all cutting ties with the minneapolis police department. think about that, schools. phoenix and nashville, much more temperate response from leaders. back to you. >> and lisa under, minneapolis council president saying we are going to dismantle the minneapolis police department and replace it with a transformative model of public safety. >> something else. >> does defunding police solve any problems or endanger our communities? todd: joining us with reaction

is a 29-year-old veteran of the la county sheriff's department. thanks for being here. you heard rob's reported this discussion all morning long, describe a country where police departments are defunded. >> you will see total chaos. you will see people rioting. there is no responsibility for criminal actions. the last thing you want to do is defund the police department. a lot of people think law enforcement is what you see on tv from hollywood and that is a false narrative that is going on, that is not true reality what law enforcement is about, you have 2 caring individuals in the community from their community working in their community such as law enforcement officers trying to do the job of protecting their community, your defunding that, what are they going to do? how they protect their people? worst thing they can possibly do. we don't need to remove that funding.

i understand funding into areas we needed, we did in 92 when i was involved in the riots, the rodney king riots, they put money into the community that is supposed to help with that. what happened with that money? took money from law enforcement, take money from training and they use it for their pet projects. they totally don't care, they don't care about your safety, they are letting the criminals out and now with the income from businesses being shutdown for 3 months, what are they going to do? they are trying to figure out where to take the money from but you're going to take it from your protectors, protecting our everyday citizens and businesses out there from law enforcement? worst idea ever. jillian: let's look at the numbers, in los angeles supposed to cut between 100-$150 million from the lapd budget. in new york a push for $1 billion in cuts from the nypd budget. in phoenix a push for $186 million in cuts, nationalism budget and review

after communities push to defund the police department. it seems like this is one of the most extreme actions we are seeing aside from the proposal to dismantle the police department in minneapolis. my question is is there anything in between that can be done now, something with the police unions where you could have more police officers held accountable for their actions, look what happened in minneapolis, you then find out after the fact that derek chauvin had multiple complaints against him. is there anything else besides these extreme actions? >> law enforcement have always been accountable. the problem is some people have their own narrative that is going on. that is not happening. we've always in law enforcement been reporting offices that used excessive force. these are things that are already in place. for them to say we need to have these, they are there.

>> can i push back? because this is such a something on the mind of so many people right now, what happened to george floyd, derek chauvin had many complaints against him so where is the breakdown? >> the breakdown, what we were talking about earlier, the education. we need to educate the public how to interact with law enforcement. for whatever reason people think the cops are always going to be the bad guys and the cops reactions will be the result of the actions they are having contact with. if you do what you are supposed to be doing you are going to be fine. you have 700,000 cops in the united states, 330 million people in the united states and we have a small amount of people

having problems with law enforcement. this isn't a race issue, this is where education needs to go both ways. law enforcement needs to do better with their education and training but you can't do that if you are taking the money away and citizens need to have education too. politicians -- citizens not giving proper education how to deal with a law enforcement officer and that is where we get this push back and you have seen it, the protesters in the cops face, saying all sorts of things to them and they are holding the line. >> we've seen a lot of the last weekend i do think majority of americans think 99% of the police force are really good people. thank you for joining us. it is 41 minutes after the hour, police and protesters coming together, offices across the nation kneeling, walking and dancing alongside the communities they serve. >> three law-enforcement leaders who made gestures for unity join us with their powerful messages next.

>> across the nation law enforcement standing in solidarity with protesters and supporting calls for justice in the wake of george floyd's death. [crowd chanting] >> black lives matter and they haven't and they need to. >> what the protesters were feeling at the time, the passion in their voices. >> including our next guest who feel it is their duty to lead by example and show america the true heart of police. joining is jeff swanson, cheap eric clifford from new york and chef they leemeister. these have inspired so many people, sheriff swanson, i will start with you. i saw this video days ago, the

images stand out from everything i have seen this week, such a positive moment and you say you need to show it to police officers and imparted to your community. you are able to do that but how do you do that when police are so guarded. all the violence that has stems from the death of george floyd in the last week. >> we had that since saturday evening, hundreds, hundreds, saturday, sunday, monday, tuesday, webster day and even today, the same model for right now, that is our mission, righteous anger, to protest to get that voice heard. we don't just have one night and then done, we talk to them and meet with them. up our group of getting stuff done, getting answers and the

key is to have a conversation so they don't hear words anymore. they want people to take action and that has worked for us, no rest, no fires, 6 days straight. >> julie impressive, you've done so much for your community it is amazing. chief clifford i will go to you right now you see the emotion, the pain and anger and that is real and raw so for you what is the first step in trying to mend that? >> and doing some things. what the sheriff is doing, we'll reaching out to all members of the community, listening to them or communicating with them and allowing the protest to happen. we've been peaceful, like a lot of other communities, modeling what the sheriff said. we want to let them know that we care and peacefully protesting will accomplish something and as long as we keep the dialogue

going, we are committed to keep it going, not just -- what has happened to him. >> officers and leaders from your town met at a george floyd memorial to sign an agreement accountable. tell me about that agreement and what happened after? >> we are building on an existing partnership with the malone center to hold cops accountable. the nomenclature is powerful and it is meant to be. we welcome that accountability, that spotlight couldn't exist without years and literally decades of previously existing relationships. when we sat down i knew almost every single person in that room personally. i knew about the story, they knew about my story and that of our officers and i share the sentiments of other panelists today. we want to hear the voices, work with them.

we want change and we have been successful the last few nights allowing that to occur in preventing the violence that is being seen elsewhere. jillian: you have seen what has happened with communities that have not had the same outcome as your community with the violence and looting and rides, what's your message to police department across the country? >> a distinct difference between peaceful protesters and those that a to create havoc in cities. they are not the protesters, they are not the ones with the message and you need to stay the course and do not give up. it is a violent world we live in. i've been an officer for 27 years. i'm in the inner-city community that we can protect and serve. they are going to get back to a

day with peace in their cities, don't give up on your people, your community, this is a noble field, we will get through this. >> absolutely. we are out of time here. appreciate all of you joining us and it is important to remind everybody across the country that the actions of a few do not define the actions of all and i am so grateful for what you are doing in the community, the videos on social media. it matters to so many people, thank you for joining us and sharing your messages. and we still have much more to come on "fox and friends first," stay with us. on. so, for a second time we're giving members a credit on their auto insurance. because it's the right thing to do. we're also giving payment relief options to eligible members so they can take care of things like groceries before they worry about their insurance or credit card bills. right now is the time to take care of what matters most. like we've done together, so many times before. discover all the ways we're helping members at usaa.com/coronavirus

>> an update to the story because a lot of anger. to breeze issues an apology after coming under fire for his stance against kneeling during the national anthem.

>> is a union president says philadelphia police will boycott a popular gourmet food market after they apologized for giving offices for humans during the protest. >> that apology is forcefully police to boycott, the letter was for employees in the communities so let's take a look at that letter. a decision was made after a night of destruction and looting. it was insensitive and we sincerely apologize. the policy is revoked. we stand in solidarity with the peaceful protesters against racism, injustice and the senseless violence against people of color. the fraternal order of police president 5 back and said rest assured philly police will be boycotting them from here on out followed by the hashtag back the blue and also called the decision an absolute disgrace. this comes on the heels of the controversy surrounding drew breeze and his reiterated stance
