In breaking news tonight, President Trump announced in a statement to Rose Garden today that he is taking immediate action by the president to “stop the violence and restore security and safety in America” and mobilize federal resources to stop the riot and looting.
President Trump said his measures would be effective “immediately” and said he has “strongly recommended” to every governor to deploy the National Guard in “sufficient numbers that we dominate the streets.”
Trump said mayors and governors should “swift action” to protect the nation’s capital including dispatching “thousands and thousands of heavily armed soldiers, military personnel, and law enforcement officers to stop the rioting, looting, vandalism, assaults, and the wanton destruction of property.”
The president said he was also taking “swift action” to protect the national capital, including sending “thousands and thousands of heavily armed soldiers, military personnel, and law enforcement officers to stop the rioting, looting, vandalism, assaults, and the wanton destruction of property.”
