across the country triggered by the death in police custody of the unarmed african american man, george floyd. if a city or a state refuses to take the actions that are necessary to defend the life and property of their residents, then i will deploy the united states military, and quickly solve the problem for them. in minneapolis, the official post—mortem examination finds the death was a homicide. the victim's brother tells demonstrators, violence would not bring the changes, the black community deserves. my family is a peaceful family, my family is god fearing. let's do this another way. let's stop thinking that our voice don't matter, and vote! protests against police brutality continue, at least a0 cities and washington dc have imposed cu rfews, with a heavy police presence at the white house. moments after he threatened to deploy "thousands and thousands" of us troops against the protests and riots that have engulfed dozens of american cities, president trump has been on an extraordinary walkabout through downtown washington dc. he eventually stopped for photos, holding a bible, in front of the so

but some have turned violent and some american cities, cu rfews have been violent and some american citiestical stakes have really been rising for governors and local leaders. as well as by donald trump in the white house. what is happening is the washington post have this story about charges against derek chauvin, elevated to second—degree murder. in the three other officers who would with him when george floyd was dyed and killed in minneapolis, previously didn't have any charges facing them and they now face charges of aiding and they now face charges of aiding and abetting murder. the seriousness of the charges has dramatically escalated. it is hard to get away from the sense this is a direct response to the scale of the anger that has erupted since george floyd's death. of course... that has erupted since george floyd's death. of course... that is the point. 0ver floyd's death. of course... that is the point. over the last few decades, it doesn't always appear that justice has been decades, it doesn't always appear thatjustice has been done. four police officers when it comes to what

dominating the battlefield in american cities. at's -- that's un-american and unacceptable language to talk about the federal government and the u.s. military relating to u.s. citizens in that way. it was -- it was an astounding and chilling moment and so if donald trump is true to form, make a lot of noise and in the end he'll wuss out on these outrageous and unconstitutional threats. but i hate to be in the position, i hate that we're in the position that we have to hope that he's indeed true to form and that he doesn't try something that makes the situation just just catastrophically worse. >> as if i'm cue, eugene said the word hope and we have on our screen, images from hollywood, california, that look like some pretty heavily protected and armed police there in some sort of meeting, meeting of minds. an embrace there with some of the protesters, now these situati situations, they can change, they can turn on a dime but it looks like what has been the case that the protests at least during the daytime the demonstrations involv

peaceful protests, hijacked on a a nightly basis and rolling series of riots that involve great american cities and destruction and violent crimes. these are the two issues the american people are focusedhe o. justice for black americans in the face of unjust violence, and peace for our country the face of looting and domestic terror. those are the two issues that americans want to address. racial justice and rights. this resolution from) the democratic leader does not address either one of them. instead indulges in the concession with president trump has come to define the democratic side. they pay more attention to the precise ways the federal law enforcement protectsha presidential movements around the white house than to the fact that great american cities including my colleagues beloved in new york, have been consumed to a writing. and looting and violence against police for several nights in a row with no end in sight outside of washington dc. and there is no universe were americans with condemning president trump is more urgent priority than ending the riots or advancing racial justice.

crazy to be talking about primary results when we've got protests in the streets in dozens of american cities. we've got the president sicking the american military on the american public. we've got a coronavirus epidemic that is still the worst in the world with over 100,000 americans dead. but while all this is happening, we're all responsible for making sure that our fragile small deed democracy survives this incredibly dark moment. we're going to talk about that among other things with senator cory booker joins us live next.

mcconnell: last night, the streets of major american cities were again the scene of looting and violent rioting that serves no purpose except to hurt innocent people and undermine peaceful demonstrations. every one of us has an obligation to distinguish peaceful protests over the killings of george floyd, breonna taylor, and ahmaud arbery from the violent riots that continue to see innocent people hurt, businesses and neighborhoods destroyed, and law enforcement officers assaulted. the former is a cherished constitutional right that every single citizen should support, and the latter is an unacceptable scourge that state and local leaders should have ended days ago. so i want to thank federal, state, and local leaders who are taking seriously their obligation to restore peace, protect the innocent, and stop this senseless violence. in some places, like my home state of kentucky and here in washington, last night was comparatively more calm and safe. but in too many other places like new york city, it appeared to be open season for lawlessness, looting, and attacking law enforcement for

peaceful protests hijacked on a nightly basis into a rolling series of riots that engulfed great american cities in wanton destruction and violent crime. these are the two issues the american people are focused on, justice for black americans in the face of unjust violence and peace for our country in the face of looting, riots, and domestic terror. those are the two issues americans want addressed, racial justice and ending riots. unfortunately, this resolution from my friend the democratic leader, does not address either one of them. instead, it just indulges in the my my optic on session of president trump. it pays more attention to the precise ways that federal law enforcement affects presidential movement around the white house, instead of cities that have been consumed biryouting, looting, and violence against police for several nights in a row with no end in sight. outside of the washington, d.c., bubble, there's no universe where americans think democrats obsession with condemning president trump is more urgent priority than ending the riots or advancing racial justice. there is no unive

and i especially see it in the young people who we have seen out in american cities in droves demanding— who has experienced this police violence on camera. from bystander video, from dust camera, from body worn cameras ina way camera, from body worn cameras in a way that people from gen x haven't. so they will keep pushing for national change, for local change and use their voices at the ballot box. and what are the chances of it, do you think? i know you have been putting the president to remove federal troops from washington, dc. he has the right to do that, doesn't he, because dc is not a state as such? even as a democrat you must have back channels with the white house. what are you hearing out of the public eye, as it were? well, certainly we have conversations with the white house on very mundane issues, two issues of national importance like this one. they recognise i'm going defend washington, dc, that we think their actions were just egregious, not just think their actions were just egregious, notjust in bringing active military duty troops to the nations's capital, but also f

that donald trump wanted to put active duty military troops on the streets of american cities. >> i think dangerous move by the president, particularly under circumstances where as i see the protests all across the country and i have been watching them closely are basically peaceful. there's some thug elements to them but basically they're peaceful. whether san francisco, los angeles, minneapolis where they could be quite different if people really got angry. so using the national guard perhaps around the rims as it were, maybe that might be called for but certainly not active forces and by the way, his move today was very much all for a very brave move prompted by a lot of people and a lot of pressure and a lot of other generals talking to him. not just those that came public and others that were talking to him in private and took a lot of courage to do that. it should have been done. it should have been done. his statement that that was a political act was absolutely correct. it was a political act by the president of the united states just like when he dispatched troops to the border i

. >> taking over american cities. in all case it is democrats, democrat run in all cases and joe biden would have that be the whole country. >> does this make the argument that donald trump is running a law and order administration? >> he is running against the opposite of law and order which is lawlessness in some major american cities including with all respect my friend jason his city is ground 0, seattle, totally embarrassing for the entire country and what struck me is the effort in the mainstream press to gaslight the american people as if antifa isn't a thing and it is not really doing that much damage and unfortunately for those people pushing that storyline we all have eyes and ears and phones that youtube and television and week after week of distraction and flareups across the country. i agree with jason this is long overdue. we need the laws enforced and a lot of democrat run cities that has not been happening. >> listen to stephen inside chop in seattle. >> in the communities. >> reporter: is their actual

fester, letting this racial separation fester, letting this type of treatment we're seeing in every american city fester undermines us long term and undermining our country and businesses and all we stand for. >> quintin lucas, mr. mayor, thank you for your time. we hope you'll come back we're rooting for kansas city and any city in america right now trying to work their way through this thank you. >> thank you >>> and now we're going to take a quick commercial break with the s&p and dow just about flat at this hour, the nasdaq off about a third of a percent we'll be right back. a grandfather of 14. a newlywed... a guy who just got into college... that's why behind these masks, johnson & johnson scientists are working to accelerate development of a covid-19 vaccine, drawing on decades of experience responding to public health emergencies like ebola and hiv. for the life behind every mask, the clock never stops and neither do we. but a slice is just right. that's why fidelity offers dollar-based trading. buy what you want based upon how much you want to spend, even if it's just a slice of a share.

troops into american cities if local officials can't control the chaos on the streets after the death of george floyd. but it's this moment that captured even more attention, the president walking to a vandalized church near the white house holding up a bible moments after peaceful protests were cleared from the street with tear gas and rubber bullets. the local bishop is now condemning the photo-op. >>> in new york city overnight despite a curfew, we saw looting in several areas of manhattan including on fifth avenue. and a disturbing scene in buffalo, new york. two police officers were hit by a vehicle when a protest turned violent. their injuries are being described as serious. >>> in st. louis four police officers have been hit by gunfire. their injuries are described as nonlife-threatening, but police said they were still taking gunfire downtown. >> back in washington, d.c., helicopters have been flying over the city, which is normally a no-fly zone. the city was described as a ghost town with a heavy presence of federal law enforcement. >> it was a different scene earlier in the
