‘The Five’ on ‘sickening’ DC shooting

FOX NEWS ALERT. FBI DIRECTOR KASH PATEL JUST ANNOUNCING MOMENTS AGO THAT TWO NATIONAL GUARD MEMBERS WERE SHOT IN WASHINGTON, D.C., AND THEY ARE BOTH IN CRITICAL CONDITION. IT HAPPENED ABOUT A MILE FROM THE WHITE HOUSE. THE FBI DIRECTOR SAYING THIS IS BEING TREATED AS AN ASSAULT ON OFFICER. THE SUSPECT IS IN CUSTODY. LET’S GO RIGHT TO MARK MEREDITH. OH. OKAY. WE ARE WAITING FOR MARK, SO WE — >> Brian: BE THERE IN A SECOND, SCRAMBLING ALL DAY. LOOKS LIKE ONE GUNMAN COMING AROUND THE CORNER. IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THEY KNEW EXACTLY — NOTICED EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS DOING YESTERDAY. >> Jessica: ABSOLUTELY. WE HAVE MARK NOW, SO… MARK, WHEN YOU ARE READY. >> SORRY, COMMUNICATION, I CAN HEAR YOU LOUD AND CLEAR, GUYS. MOMENTS AGO WE HEARD FROM FBI DIRECTOR KASH PATEL WHO SAID THIS WAS A TARGETED ATTACK ON TWO MEMBERS OF THE WEST VIRGINIA NATIONAL GUARD WHO ARE SERVING IN THE NATION’S CAPITAL AS PART OF AN INITIATIVE TO CLEAN UP D.C., THIS IS A MISSION THAT HAS BEEN UNDERWAY FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. WE HAVE SEEN GUARDS MEMBERS COME FROM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY AT THE GOVERNOR’S ORDERS TO DEPLOY THESE RESOURCES AND OFFICIALS ARE CALLING THIS A TARGETED ATTACK. MOMENTS AGO WE ARE FROM D.C. MAYOR MURIEL BOWSER WHO SAID THIS WAS HORRIFIC, THEY ARE DEPLOYING ALL THE RESOURCES THAT SHE HAS AT HER DISPOSAL, BUT WHAT WAS ALSO VERY CLEAR ABOUT THIS IS THIS PERSON APPEARED TO ACT ALONE, THIS WAS NOT A MULTIPLE GROUP ATTACK BUT INSTEAD ONE PERSON WHO WAS TAKEN INTO CUSTODY BUT ALSO WAS SHOT, NO INDICATION YET WHAT THE WEAPON WAS THAT WAS BEING USED IN THIS ATTACK, BUT THERE HAS ALSO BEEN A LOT OF CONFUSION, JESSICA, ABOUT THE CONDITION OF THESE TWO NATIONAL GUARD MEMBERS. IF YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING FOX ALL AFTERNOON LIKE OTHER MEDIA OUTLETS, REPORTING THE NEWS, THE GOVERNOR PATRICK MORRISSEY SAID THOSE GUARD MEMBERS HAD DIED, HE THEN RETRACTED THE STATEMENT ON SOCIAL MEDIA SAYING HE TOO WAS GETTING CONFLICTING INFORMATION. A BREAKING NEWS STORY, OF COURSE THAT IS TO BE EXPECTED HERE BUT WE ALSO NOTICED IN THE NEWS CONFERENCE THEY DID NOT ADDRESS SPECIFICALLY THE CONDITIONS OF THOSE TWO SERVICE MEMBERS BUT ALSO MENTIONED THE SUSPECT WAS TAKEN. PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS BEEN VERY ACTIVE ON SOCIAL MEDIA TALKING ABOUT THIS ATTACK, I WAS JUST READING ONE OF HIS MOST RECENT POSTS IN WHICH SHE SAID — THIS IS WHERE I DO IT IN REAL TIME FOR YOU — HE BASICALLY PUT UP AND SAID THIS WAS A HORRIFIC ATTACK, THIS ANIMAL WOULD BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE, AND HE WOULD MAKE SURE THE FULL RESOURCES OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WOULD ENSURE THAT JUSTICE IS SERVED. WE ARE ALSO HEARING, JESSICA, FROM THE ENTIRE CONGRESSIONAL DELEGATIONS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. THEY ARE OFFERING PRAYERS AND SUPPORT BUT IT HAS BEEN QUITE CONTROVERSIAL TO HAVE THESE NATIONAL GUARD MEMBERS IN D.C. SO FAR THE LAWMAKERS THAT I HAVE SEEN ON SOCIAL MEDIA OFFERING STATEMENTS AND INSTEAD PUTTING THE THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS FOR THOSE THAT ARE INJURED AND NOT FOCUSING ON THE CONTROVERSY OF THIS SERVICE TO BEGIN WITH. WE ARE ALSO WAITING TO SEE IF WE WILL GET ANY UPDATE FROM THE D.C. HOSPITALS ABOUT THE CONDITIONS. WE HAVE BEEN TRAINED TO PIECE TOGETHER WHERE THE SERVICE MEMBERS WERE TAKEN. THE SHOOTING HAPPENED JUST ABOUT TWO BLOCKS AWAY WHERE I’M STANDING ABOUT 2:45 THIS AFTERNOON, FARRAGUT WEST METRO STOP, A STATION WITH THREE DIFFERENT TRAIN LINES. NORMALLY ANY WEEKDAY YOU CAN IMAGINE RIGHT BY THE WHITE HOUSE IT WOULD BE PACKED BUT BECAUSE IT IS A HOLIDAY, FOOT TRAFFIC WAS NOT NEARLY AS CROWDED BUT THERE WERE PEOPLE WHO WITNESSED THIS AND ALSO FROM THE BUILDINGS ABOVE, I HEARD FROM A SOURCE WHO IS ABLE TO SEND ME SOME PHOTOS OF WHAT THEY COULD SEE FROM THEIR VANTAGE POINT FROM UP HIGH AND ALL YOU COULD SEE WAS A SEA OF SHATTERED GLASS BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF GUNFIRE THAT WAS EXCHANGED, NOT ONLY BETWEEN THIS GUNMAN WHO TOOK DOWN THE TWO SERVICE MEMBERS BUT ALSO THE RESPONDING OFFICERS, RESPONDING NATIONAL GUARD MEMBERS THAT WERE ABLE TO GET THIS PERSON INTO CUSTODY, IN TERMS OF MOTIVE, DO NOT KNOW EXCEPT AGAIN THEY ARE CALLING THIS TARGETED. THEY ARE MAKING INDICATIVE THAT THIS WAS NOT SOMETHING THAT WAS COMPLETE IRAN TO HIM BUT WE DON’T HAVE THE MOTIVE YET OR WHAT NECESSARILY ARE THE CHARGES OF THE PERSON WHO WILL EVENTUALLY FACE WHEN AND IF THEY GET OUT OF THE HOSPITAL. JESSICA? >> Jessica: SO WE HAVE SOME SOUND FROM J.D. VANCE FROM A LITTLE WHILE AGO THAT I WOULD LOVE TO PLAY. >> IT’S A SOMBER REMINDER THAT SOLDIERS, WHETHER THEY ARE ACTIVE DUTY, RESERVE, OR NATIONAL GUARD, OUR SOLDIERS ARE OF THE SWORD AND THE SHIELD OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. IT IS A PERSON WHO GOES INTO WORK EVERY SINGLE DAY AND KNOWS THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO WEAR THE UNIFORM OF THE UNITED STATES ARMY. LET ME JUST SAY VERY PERSONALLY, THANK THEM FOR WHAT THEY ARE DOING, WE ARE GRATEFUL TO THEM AND WE ARE PRAYING THAT THEY ARE GOING TO BE SAFE AND SPEND THANKSGIVING WITH THEIR FAMILIES. GOD BLESS THEM. >> Jessica: SO THAT WAS EXACTLY THE RIGHT SENTIMENT, IT WAS GOOD TO HEAR FROM THE VICE PRESIDENT, AND YOU SEE THAT BEING ECHOED FROM MEMBERS OF BOTH PARTIES AT THE VARIOUS DELEGATIONS. MARK, WHAT DID YOU MAKE OF WHAT J.D. VANCE SAID? >> ABSOLUTELY. THE VICE PRESIDENT TAKING TIME AS HE WAS ACTUALLY ON THE GROUND AT FORT CAMPBELL, KENTUCKY, TO THANK THE SERVICE MEMBERS FOR WHAT THEY’RE DOING AT A CHANCE TO PAY HIS RESPECTS AND THANKS TO THOSE SERVICE MEMBERS THAT ARE OUT THERE AND JESSICA I THINK THE OTHER CAVEAT TO ALL OF THIS IS THIS IS NOT GOING TO DETER TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. THEY SAY CONTINUING THIS MISSION OF TRYING TO CLEAN UP AND SEND A MESSAGE THAT THE NATION’S CAPITAL WILL BE PROTECTED. SECRETARY HEGSETH SAYING TODAY THEY ARE GOING TO SEND EVEN MORE RESOURCES TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE KNOW THAT D.C. IS GOING TO BE CLEANED UP AND THAT THESE ATTACKS ON SERVICE MEMBERS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. HOW QUICKLY WE WILL SEE THOSE ADDITIONAL DEPLOYMENTS, WE JUST DON’T KNOW YET. D.C.’S MAYOR MURIEL BOWSER WE HEARD AT THE NEWS CONFERENCE HAS HAD TO WALK A FINE LINE HERE FROM SUPPORTING CLEANING UP THE EFFORT TO CLEAN UP D.C., BUT ALSO WHETHER OR NOT PEOPLE ACTUALLY WANT TO SEE THE NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS ON THE STREETS OF D.C. SHE JUST ANNOUNCED YESTERDAY, JESSICA, SHE IS NOT EVEN GOING TO RUN FOR REELECTION. IT’S BEEN QUITE A CONTROVERSIAL YEAR HERE IN D.C. BUT ACROSS THE AISLE FROM HOUSE MEMBERS, SENATORS, WE HAVE SEEN THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS POOR IN FOR THESE PEOPLE THAT HAVE PUT THEIR LIVES ON THE LINES TO PROTECT THE NATION’S CAPITAL. >> Brian: LET ME ASK YOU. WHEN YOU WALK AROUND D.C., IS IT PRETTY UNDERSTOOD WHERE THE COPS ARE, BORDER PATROL AGENTS, AND WHERE THE NATIONAL GUARD IS? FOR EXAMPLE, DO THEY HAVE SIMILAR ASSIGNMENTS? OR ARE THEY JUST RANDOMLY — >> NATIONAL GUARD ALL THROUGHOUT D.C. YOU ALSO SEE THEM WEARING HSI VESTS, HIGH SECURITY INCIDENT, PEOPLE YOU CAN TELL ARE DIRECTED JUST TO HELP OUT WITH THIS FEDERAL MISSION. I SAW THEM — LAST TIME I SAW THEM WAS SUNDAY EVENING. I LIVE NEAR H STREET, KIND OF A POPULAR CORRIDOR HERE IN D.C. 5:00 I SAW THREE OF THEM WALKING. WALKING. EVEN THANKED THEM FOR THEIR SERVICE BECAUSE THERE HAS BEEN ALL THESE QUESTIONS OF HOW LONG THIS WILL GO ON FOR. THEY ARE AWAY FROM THEIR FAMILIES ON A HOLIDAY WEEKEND. BUT YOU DO, IF YOU ARE IN A HIGH-TRAFFIC AREA OF D.C., H STREET, METRO STATIONS, UNION STATION, OR BIG TRAIN STATION HERE, YOU WILL SEE, RIGHT WHEN THE DEPLOYMENTS HAPPEN, SAW A NUMBER OF PROTESTS, A SMALL MOTIVE PEOPLE SAID THEY WOULD BANG POTS AND PANS, WE DON’T WANT YOU HERE, HAVEN’T SEEN THAT LATELY. INSTEAD, D.C. RESIDENT — I AM ONE OF THEM — EXCEPT THAT THESE PEOPLE ARE HERE TO DO THE JOB, TO PROTECT THE REST OF US. AND OBVIOUSLY THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT GOING TO BE GOING AWAY ANYTIME SOON. WHETHER WE SEE ADDITIONAL CHANGES TO THEIR SECURITY POSTURE, WE’VE SEEN, BRIAN, PEOPLE WITH MORE WEAPONS, WE DON’T KNOW YET, BUT THEY ARE GOING TO SEE A SURGE OF ADDITIONAL TROOPS COMING FOR I IMAGINE NOT JUST WEST VIRGINIA BUT ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY. BRIAN? >> Brian: 500 MORE. >> Jessica: MARK, THANK YOU SO MUCH. APPRECIATE IT. >> YOU BET. >> Jessica: SO WANT TO TAKE THIS AROUND THE TABLE. TRULY HEARTBREAKING DAY, AND HOPEFUL THAT THE TWO NATIONAL GUARD MEMBERS WHO ARE IN CRITICAL CONDITION ARE GOING TO MAKE IT THROUGH. WE HAVE THANKSGIVING TOMORROW. REALLY PUTS ALL OF THIS IN PERSPECTIVE. THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE AT HOME WITH THEIR FAMILIES. GUY, D.C. IS HOME FOR YOU, TOO. YOU WERE THERE JUST THIS MORNING ON YOUR WAY TO COME UP HERE TO JOIN US. WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS? >> Guy: WELL, IT’S HEARTBREAKING, THAT’S RIGHT, BUT IT’S ALSO SICKENING THAT THIS WOULD HAPPEN, AND IT WOULD BE SICKENING ANY DAY OF THE YEAR BUT ESPECIALLY RIGHT BEFORE SUCH A FAMILY-CENTRIC HOLIDAY. IT’S JUST SO SENSELESS. AND WHEN THE INITIAL REPORTS CAME OUT, IT’S ALWAYS IMPORTANT TO BE CAREFUL AND KNOCK IT OVER YOUR SKIS. WE STILL HAVE A LOT OF QUESTIONS HERE THAT NEED TO BE ANSWERED, BUT IT FELT LIKE TWO DIFFERENT GUARDSMAN GETTING SHOT MADE THE LIKELIHOOD OF THIS BEING RANDOM VERY LOW AND THEN GETTING THE CONFIRMATION IN THAT PRESS CONFERENCE THIS WAS A TARGETED ATTACK, THAT IS OUTRAGEOUS, IT IS INFURIATING. THERE WILL BE A DISCUSSION IN THIS COUNTRY ABOUT THE POLICY TO HAVE THE NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYED IN D.C. THERE ARE QUESTIONS THAT COULD BE LEGITIMATE ABOUT WHETHER THIS IS SUSTAINABLE IN THE LONG TERM. I WILL TELL YOU, LIVING THERE, WORKING THERE MUCH OF THE TIME, IT IS INDISPUTABLE THAT VIOLENT CRIME IS DOWN DRAMATICALLY BECAUSE OF THEIR PRESENCE. JUST LIKE MARK MEREDITH JUST SAID. I GO OUT OF MY WAY TO THANK THESE MEN AND WOMEN WHEN I SEE THEM OUT JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN PUT IN THIS POSITION, AND THEY HAVE GOTTEN A LOT OF HOSTILITY FROM SOME LOCAL ACTIVISTS AND SOME POLITICIANS, SO I WANT TO THANK THEM FOR THEIR SERVICE AND TO HAVE SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN ON A DAY LIKE THIS OR ANY DAY, IT JUST MAKES MY BLOOD BOIL AND MY HEART SINK, AND WE OF COURSE JOIN IN THOSE PRAYERS FOR THE WELL-BEING OF THESE TWO GUARDSMAN WHO REPORTEDLY AT THIS HOUR ARE FIGHTING FOR THEIR LIVES. >> Jessica: WE HAVE SOME SOUND I WANT TO PLAY, SECRETARY OF WAR PETE HEGSETH TALKING ABOUT EXTRA TRUTHS TROOPS THAT WILL BE DISPATCHED TO D.C. >> PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS ASKED ME, AND I WILL ASK THE SECRETARY OF THE ARMY, THE NATIONAL GUARD, TO ADD 500 ADDITIONAL TROOPS, NATIONAL GUARDSMAN, TO WASHINGTON, D.C. THIS WILL ONLY STIFFEN OUR RESOLVE TO ENSURE WE MAKE WASHINGTON, D.C., SAFE AND BEAUTIFUL. THE DROP IN CRIME HAS BEEN HISTORIC. THE INCREASE IN SAFETY AND SECURITY HAS BEEN HISTORIC. BUT IF CRIMINALS WANT TO CONDUCT THINGS LIKE THIS, VIOLENCE AGAINST AMERICA’S BEST, WE WILL NEVER BACK DOWN. >> Jessica: SO WE HAVE THAT RESPONSE FROM THE SECRETARY OF WAR, BRIAN, AND ALSO PRESIDENT TRUMP WEIGHING IN SAYING THIS BUT ANIMAL IS GOING TO BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE. RAPIDLY DEVELOPING STORY BUT WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ARE NOW? >> Brian: NUMBER ONE, THE BORDER PATROL THEY COULD TARGET COME OUT OF THE COPS THEY COULD TARGET COME OUT OF I.C.E. THEY COULD TARGET, THEY TARGET THE MOST WELL ARMORED LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS YOU CAN, AND THAT IS THE NATIONAL GUARD, SO I HAVE NEVER SEEN A NATIONAL GUARD’S PERSON OUT OF A VAST. THEY LOOK LIKE THEY ARE ARMORED UP. THAT WAS THE CRITICISM FROM SOME, I DON’T WANT THAT LOOK ON MY STREETS. WE DON’T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED BUT IF THESE GUARDSMAN ARE ABLE TO SURVIVE MAYBE IT IS BECAUSE THES AND ARMORED UP. THIS GUY COMES AROUND THE CORNER, BY ALL DESCRIPTIONS, MY POINT TO MARK WAS DID YOU NOTE, THERE IS A CERTAIN AREA THEY PATROL, YOU MIGHT KNOW, GUY, A GUNMAN SAYS I WANT TO GO AFTER THE NATIONAL GUARD, THIS IS WHERE I DO IT. YOU KNOW WHERE THE NATIONAL GUARD IS AND WHERE THEY ARE NOT. HE COMES AROUND THE CORNER TO SHOOT TWO NATIONAL GUARDSMEN, AND ENOUGH TO QUICKLY NEUTRALIZE THAT PERSON AND SOME OF THE VIDEO WE JUST SAW IS CORRECT, BUT OVERALL I JUST ASKED THE GREEN ROOM, JUST ABOUT WHAT HAS HAPPENED THE LAST FOUR MONTHS, IN MAJOR CITIES, THE NATIONAL GUARD HAS BEEN PUT INTO PLAY, ALONG WITH THE BORDER PATROL AND I.C.E., AND THERE IS AN INCREASE IN ASSAULTS ON HIS AGENTS, UP 1115%, AND YOU HAVE THESE POLITICIANS SAYING THEY ARE THE BAD GUYS, AND NATIONAL GUARD DOESN’T BELONG HERE, SO ANYONE ON THE EDGE, ANYONE ON BALANCE, ANYONE WHO FEELS AS THOUGH THEY ARE GETTING HURT BY THIS AND HAVING SECURITY COME I KNOW IT IS MIND-BOGGLING, THIS IS THE TIME TO ACT. ON SOME WEIRD, TWISTED LEVEL, THIS GUY PROBABLY FEELS LIKE HE IS A HERO. >> Jessica: HOPEFULLY WE WILL FIND OUT MORE ABOUT WHAT THE EXACT MOTIVE WAS. WE DO KNOW IT WAS TARGETED, OBVIOUSLY, AND BRIAN BRINGS UP A POLITICAL DEBATE THAT HAS BEEN GOING ON AROUND DISPATCHING THE NATIONAL GUARD. THE D.C. CASE IS DIFFERENT BECAUSE DONALD TRUMP IS IN CHARGE OF D.C. VERSUS CHICAGO OR LOS ANGELES. BUT LISA, HOW DO YOU SEE THE POLITICAL DEBATE AT THIS MOMENT? WHERE DO YOU THINK IT GOES FROM HERE? I WOULD IMAGINE JUST THE TIME WHEN WE NEED THE TEMPERATURE TO COME DOWN, IT’S ABOUT TO GET A LOT HOTTER IN HERE. >> Lisa: I THINK WE ARE ALL SICK TO OUR STOMACHS RIGHT NOW. RIGHT BEFORE THANKSGIVING. I PRAY FOR THE GUARDSMAN THAT THEY SURVIVE, PRAY FOR THEIR FAMILIES, WHO ARE PROBABLY HOPING TO MAYBE SEE THEM TOMORROW FOR THANKSGIVING, AND NOW THEY ARE FIGHTING FOR THEIR LIVES. I MEAN, LOOK, THE WHOLE REASON PRESIDENT TRUMP FEDERALIZED THE D.C. POLICE AND DEPLOYED THE NATIONAL GUARD IS WE SAW A SERIES OF HIGH-PROFILE CRIME INCIDENTS IN WASHINGTON, D.C. YOU HAD TWO ISRAELI EMBASSY STAFFERS EXECUTED IN COLD BLOOD. YOU HAD A CONGRESSIONAL INTERN MURDERED. YOU HAD A DEMOCRAT MEMBER OF CONGRESS, AN ARMED CARJACKING, SENATOR RAND PAUL HAD A STAFFER WHO WAS STABBED. THAT IS WHY PRESIDENT TRUMP ENDED UP FEDERALIZED IN THE D.C. POLICE AND ALSO DEPLOYING THE NATIONAL GUARD, BUT IT IS ALSO SOFT-ON-CRIME POLICIES THAT HAVE BEEN LED BY DEMOCRATS IN PLACES LIKE WASHINGTON, D.C., AND I’M SORRY, BUT I AM ANGRY BECAUSE I AM TIRED OF THOSE ENFORCING LAW ENFORCEMENT HAVING TARGETS ON THEIR BACKS, AND YOU CAN GO BACK TO FERGUSON IN 2014 WITH THE WHOLE HANDS UP, DON’T SHOOT LIE WITH MICHAEL BROWN — THAT BY THE WAY, PRESIDENT OBAMA HELPED PUSHED — THAT SORT OF UPENDED OUR KERNEL JUSTICE SYSTEM THAT TURNED CRIMINALS INTO VICTIMS, VICTIMS INTO CRIMINALS, AND THEN THAT SAME PLAYBOOK GOT EXTENDED TO I.C.E. AGENTS AND BORDER PATROL, AS WELL. THEY WERE CALLED THE GESTAPO. AND NOW SOME OF THESE OFFICERS AND AGENTS HAVE BOUNTIES ON THEIR HEADS. SECRETARY NOEM HAS TOLD US. TO BE KIDNAPPED OR MURDERED, AS WELL. WE SAW ATTACKS AND ATTENDED ASSASSINATION IN DALLAS. AND I’M SAD THAT WE ARE BEING TOLD NOW THIS IS A TARGETED ATTACK AGAINST THE NATIONAL GUARD GUARDSMEN SO IS THAT SAME NARRATIVE BEING APPLIED TO OUR NATIONAL GUARDSM, AS WELL? IT IS DISGUSTING. WE DO NEED TO TONE DOWN THE TEMPERATURE BUT WE ALSO NEED TO BE HONEST AND STOP, THOSE ON THE LEFT AND TO STOP PUTTING A TARGET ON THE PEOPLE WHO PUT ON A UNIFORM OR A BADGE TO PROTECT OUR NATION AND COMMUNITIES. >> Jimmy: AT THE RISK OF OUR CIVIL FIND THIS EMBARRASSED TO SAY IT, IF YOU DON’T — YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO SHOOT, YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO VOTE. THERE HAS BEEN — WE ARE A WEEK REMOVED FROM ELISSA SLOTKIN SAYING THESE GUYS MIGHT GET NERVOUS OUT THERE AND START SHOOTING AT CIVILIANS, AND THE IDEA THAT THEY HAVE BEEN OR TRADE AS GESTAPO AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN, AGAIN, I DON’T WANT TO HAVE THAT NASTY CONVERSATION, BUT YOU CAN’T AVOID THE FACT THESE GUYS GOT SHOT IN THE SAME WEEK THAT WE WERE JUST TOLD THEY MIGHT BE COMMITTING SEDITION, YOU KNOW, AND THERE HAS BEEN ALL KINDS OF TERRIBLE THINGS GOING ON, SO MY FRUSTRATION IS EVERYBODY TELLING YOU THEY ARE TRYING TO PROTECT THIS DEMOCRACY HAS KIND OF UPENDED THE WILL OF A PRESIDENT THAT PEOPLE VOTED FOR THIS. THE TROOPS OR BREAKING RECRUITMENT NUMBERS RIGHT NOW BECAUSE PEOPLE SUPPORT THIS AGENDA. THE PEOPLE W
