- Tonight, President Trumpis in the White House,

where Secret Service agentsushered the president

over the weekend intoan underground bunker

while riots here got out of hand.

- [Protesters] Justice!What's his name? George Floyd!

- [Gabe] What began as peaceful protests

in many places across the country,

devolved into violence.

(canister explodes)

- From North Carolina,

(motor cycle revs)

to Michigan,

and the Twin Cities

as thousands took to the streets

in the days since George Floyd's death

under the knee of aMinneapolis police officer.

In the nation' capitol, Washington joined

the growing list of cities

calling in the National Guard--

- [Man] Watch out for the gas!

- -deploying pepper spray at protesters

as fires burned across the city.

From the headquarters of theAFL/CIO Labor Union building,

to the historic St. John's church

across the street from the White House.

- I had the chance to walk through

St. John's Episcopal Church,

and like so many of you,

I was quite angry atthe vandalism and arson.

- [Gabe] DC Mayor MurielBowser is now extending

the city-wide curfew.

- We will not allow thecontinued destruction

of our hometown by peoplewho are coming here

to protest or by D.C. residents.

- [Gabe] With manyprotesters focusing their ire

on President Trump--

- Every time you get on Twitter,

every time you say anything, sir,

you're saying it out of violence,

out of hate, and we're tired

of being hated.

- [Gabe] The president, for his part,

cast blame at the Nation's governors,

telling officials in atele-conference with governors

that most of you are weak andyou have to arrest people.

Wearing a mask, PresidentTrump's Democratic contender,

Joe Biden, listened at a meeting

with black church leaders in Delaware.

- The bandaid's been ripped off

by this pandemic and this president.

Nobody can pretend any longer

what this is all about.

- [Gabe] This, aftermore than 4,000 arrests

across 22 cities in three days.

- The tactics that I saw last night,

by the people, theantagonists I will call them,

appear to be organized in nature.

- [Gabe] Hinting at systemicforces behind the riots,

the district's police chiefis promising more arrests.

- We will release all the demographics.

My public information office will give you

the names of the arrestees.

The demographics, where they're from.

They were largely from this region,

the people that were arrested.

But I don't think thattells the whole story.

I don't think we will have the whole story

until we've made more arrests.

- With cleanup effortsunderway across the country,

U.S. Attorney General BillBarr is sending riot teams

from the U.S. Bureau of Prisonsto Washington and Miami.

They will join U.S.Marshalls and DEA agents

already deployed in D.C.
