And hundreds of injuries to Law Enforcement personnel as well as a few killings. Fox Team Coverage tonight, laura ingle in new york, a vicious attack on police there but we begin with Senior Correspondent mike tobin in minneapolis tonight, the sight of the George Floyd Memorial Service earlier. Good evening, mike. Good evening, bret. Here in the city, mourning the loss of a man relatively unknown until video of his death shocked the world. All the rioting and damage after the outrage of another black man killed at the hands of white police officer, the message was that this is a moment for chan change. A Memorial Service for george floyd, whos death horrified viewers around the world, whose death inspired marches, some resulted in widespread destruction. The reason why we are marching all over the world is that we were like a george, we couldnt breathe, not because there was something wrong with our lungs but because you wouldnt take your knee off our necks. A friend of floyd who reportedly was in the car with him last monday says floyd never resisted, even try to diffuse a situation after police engaged him for allegedly passing a counterfeit bill, that engagement ending with floyds widely witnessed death. Three of the four officers were in court for two times. Thomas lane, tou thao, and j. Alexander kueng face charges of murder imurder for standing andg as Derek Chauvin kneeled on floyds neck. The third degree murder charge against him has now been increased to seconddegree murder, he faces a maximum sentence of 40 years behind bars. I strongly believe that these developments are in the interest of justice for mr. Floyd, his family, our community, and our state. William barr saying the department of justice and the fbi are conducting separate investigations into possible civil rights violations. In the weeks and months ahead we will be working with Community Leaders to find constructive solution so that mr. Floyds death will not have been in vain. Meanwhile the city of minneapolis will seek federal help to pay for the estimated 55 million in damage after protests there devolved into riots. Since them the city streets have remained mostly calm, the focus now shifting to recovering and remembering. I want to say thank you to him for being there, being a real, genuine person, loving and caring, something i can count on no matter what. Thomas lane mentioned twice in court that he had suggested twice that george floyd be rolled over but lane was a rookie, Derek Chauvin was a 19 year veteran of the horse and a lawyer says chauvin refuse. Bret Law Enforcement continues to be a target of some of these violent protesters hundreds have been injured during writing, many seriously. A native violent encounters, from new york. These shots caught on video during a violent night for the nypd here in brooklyn. Two officers and the suspect shot during the struggle after coming to the aid of another officer who investigators say was stabbed in the neck by the suspect. All three wounded officers are said to be in stable condition and are expected to recover. The nypd commissioner called the incident to a despicable and unprovoked attack. This violence has to stop and people have to speak and words matter. Its still unclear if this incident is related, the nypd said 200 of its officers have been injured in clashes with looters and protesters, william barr confirming today, and he thoughextremist groups were invd with the violence. Will many have peacefully expressed their anger and grief, others have hijacked protest to engage in lawlessness. Violent rioting, arson, looting of businesses and public property, assaults on Law Enforcement officers and innocent people and even the murder of a federal agent. Hands up dont shoot protests still continue across the country for a ninth straight day, more than 10,000 people have been arrested so far according to an Associated Press nationwide count, most of the arrests were for lowlevel offenses including curfew violations and failure to disperse. This says thousands of protesters join George Floyds brother for a Memorial Prayer Service before marching across the brooklyn bridge. And speaking at todays Memorial Service, new york city mayor bill de blasio received some boos from the crowd. While the curfew in new york will go on until monday, many major cities have ended there is like in seattle and washington, d. C. Bret laura, thank you. A navy veteran detained in iran for nearly two years is on his way home tonight and fox news is the only channel on the scene in switzerland. Michael white had been sentenced to a decade in prison for insulting irans Supreme Leader. State Department Correspondent richardson has the story tonight from zurich. Doing all right, happy to be back. Hes free after nearly two years in iranian custody, u. S. Navy veteran Michael White has been released. I wanted to extend my personal thanks to President Trump for his efforts both diplomatically and otherwise for making America Great again and i look forward to whats going to happen in the future. And images captured exclusively by fox news, he was transferred to american officials at an airport in zurich. Brian hook completed the transfer and walked white off the plane into american custody and back into freedom. Recovering pretty decently, getting back into shape. White says he was visiting his girlfriend when authorities arrested him. In march 2019 he was sentenced to ten years in prison on charges he insulted irans Supreme Leader and posted private photographs on social media. A u. S. Official says the state department negotiated for nearly four months with iranian officials through swiss intermediaries to secure his release. Negotiating with iranians is never a linear process, theres a lot of stops and starts, you are to be very patient, this is a regime that has been taking americans hostage for 41 years. And our diplomacy has been successful and were going to keep working at it. A senior u. S. Official told fox news that is part of the deal to free white, the u. S. Agreed to release an iranian american doctor, he served 16 months for violating american sanctions against iran and was sentenced thursday to time served. The official says hes lived in the u. S. For 33 years and is a medical doctor in florida. Senior u. S. Officials say they are still trying to free several other americans detained in iran. As for Michael White, we asked him what he plans on doing when he returns to the United States and he says going to disney world. Bret . Bret rich edson in switzerland, thank you. President trump is celebrating Michael Whites freedom tonight, also said to be working on new policies in response to the George Floyd Killing and they could be we are told announced next week. This comes at several highranking current and former officials break ranks with the president , his First Defense secretary with scathing commentary on President Trump and as expected the president is pushing back. Correspondent Kristin Fisher at the white house tonight. President trump makes good on his promise to free navy veteran Michael White and pledges that he will never stop working to secure the release of all americans held hostage overseas. Here in washington, it appears defense secretary mark espers job security is safe at least for the moment. Senior Administration Officials say that while the white house was frustrated with him for invoking the insurrection act, they also note that nobody wants a cabinetlevel shakeup with every thing going on right now. When the president loses confidence, if he loses confidence you will know about it. Bill barr defended decision to order the pushback of protesters and questioned why esper implied that the trip to the church was politically motivated. The chief executive of the nation should be able to walk outside of the white house and walk across the street to the church of residence, i dont necessarily view that as a political act, i think it was entirely appropriate for him to do. Espers predecessor has fired an unprecedented shot across the bow. In a scathing statement to the atlantic, james mattis said donald trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the American People, does not even pretend to try. Instead, he tries to divide us. President trump fired back by calling him the worlds most overrated general and he repeated his claim that i asked for his letter of resignation and felt great about it but the president s former chief of staff john kelly came to madisonjamesmattis defense inw with the washington post. What the president did not fire him, he did not ask for his resignation. Jim mattis is an honorable man. Republican senator Lindsey Graham says the criticism is off the mark and missing one critical point. The one thing i would tell general mattis is that you dont understand that there is an effort to destroy his presidency. Republican senator Lisa Murkowski believes his words were necessary and overdue for this moment. When i saw general mattis comments yesterday, i felt like perhaps we are getting to the point where we can be more honest. With the concerns that we withhold it internally. Senator murkowski now said she struggling with whether or not she will be able to support President Trump in november and speaking of november, President Trump attended two big campaignrelated meetings at the white house today, they tell me that a big focus was spent on going over all the latest poll numbers and the Campaign Strategy to secure more support heading into november. Bret Kristin Fisher live on the north lawn, thanks. Former defense secretary james mattis has had a bumpy history with President Trump, with his stinging criticism which we brought you here first last night, well, that carries weight. National security correspondent Jennifer Griffin has that part of the story tonight from the pentagon. At first the president had nothing but praise for his First Defense secretary. Using a nickname the former fourstar marine general hated. He found him at odds with the president on his first trip overseas, he tried to reassure allies of the president threatened to end the alliance over defense spending, he resisted efforts by the president to send a large number of activeduty troops to the Mexican Border to build a wall. But it was after the president s decision to pull troops out of syria that mattis resigned, just short of two years on the job. What is he done for me, how has he done in afghanistan . Not too good. Ironed my spurs on the battlefield and donald trump earned his in a letter from the doctor. When he saw how the president spoke about using the military against protesters, never did i dream that troops taking that same oath would be ordered under any circumstance to violate the Constitutional Rights of their fellow citizens, much less to provide a bizarre photo op for the elected commander in chief with military leadership standing alongside. Top retired military officers also spoke out in unprecedented numbers. Former joint chief chairman admiral mike mullen wrote we are at an Inflection Point and the events of the past few weeks have made it impossible to remain silent. James devries he called on retired military leaders to speak up, saying we cannot afford to have a future Lafayette Square and up looking like henneman to make henneman square. Everyone is entitled to his opinion but hes wrong on this one. Former joint chief chair general Martin Dempsey tweeted after the president told governors to dominate the protesters, america is not a battleground. Our fellow citizens are not the enemy. Bret . Bret Jennifer Griffin at the pentagon, thank you. Up next, as las vegas reemerges from the lockdown, the huge steaks for a possible coronavirus treatment. First, around the country, fox five in atlanta as a judge rules there is enough evidence to try three white men for the murder of an africanamerican man in south georgia.

Bret republican senators are increasing their pressure on investigators of the russia collusion case, new subpoenas are being issued, others are being discussed and debated while democrats blast all the moves is a waste of time and resources. The latest tonight from the justice department. I dont think anybody in private ever disagrees with me that the way people grandstand for cameras in here. Two Senate Committees debated subpoenas in an effort to review the origins of the russia investigation. Once we find out that the Mueller Investigation was run by people who hated trumps guts, dripping with partisanship, nobody seems to care. Lindsey graham says hes on a mission to find out why the investigation was launched in the first place. Today the Committee Plans to vote on 53 subpoenas but pushed it off until next week to allow for more debate. If the vote passes, james comey, susan rice and former cia director john brennan among others could receive subpoenas if they dont voluntarily testify. Graham wants to investigate the size of. I cant support this kind of dragnet authority to conduct politically motivated investigations. In another Senate Office building, ron johnsons committee voted to issue 33 subpoenas. The former fbi agent involved in an interview a former National Security advisor Michael Flynn also made the cut. The sudden shift to see authorization of 36 subpoenas without first voluntarily seeking the compliance gives the appearance of a fishing expedition. Even as we inched closer to the election, expect to hear more hearings like today in the coming weeks. Senator graham hopes to vote on subpoenas one week from today. Bret . Bret david, thanks. Chuck grassley is refusing to advance some of the president s nominees over recent dismissals of inspector general. Grassley says he wants adequate reasons for the termination of the Intelligence Community and state department watchdogs, grassley will not consider the nomination of a respected National CounterterrorismCenter Director and state Department Undersecretary for arms control until he gets that. Alexandria ocasiocortez is endorsing the democratic primary challenger of House Foreign AffairsCommittee Chairman eliot engel tonight, backing a local educator jamaal bowman, she says the moment requires a renewed revitalized leadership. Earlier this week, admitting his comments about the George Floyd Death were only made because of political considerations, heres what he said. Responded tonight by saying in the context of running for reelection, it was important for people to know where he stands. In tonights democracy 2020 report, as joe biden increases his lead over President Trump in various polls, he is being criticized by some Law Enforcement groups and some progressives for his positions right now and in the past. Hes also getting plenty of input from supporters. Peter doocy takes a look tonig tonight. What kind of advice might joe biden beginning from his vp vetting committee . Eric garcetti is part of it and he wants a quarter of a billion dollars invested in communities of color but that means up to 150 million less for the l. A. P. D. Will this involve cuts . Yes, of course, to every department including the police department. Defund the police. A california state senator says he wont accept any donations from Law Enforcement. He says im donating all contributions from Law Enforcement unions to San Francisco and daly city nonprofits serving at risk youth of color. Joe bidens position is straightforward. But his record on racial issues is complicated. His record in the senate reflects very racist legislation but he has a chance to correct that by doing right by black people. It is outrageous. This week biden was told that his role engineering the 1994 crime bill is a problem with young people in delaware. They want to know how do you plan to undo the impact of the mass incarceration and the things that have resulted from that particular crime bill . The executive director of the National Association of Police Organizations is troubled biden hasnt been worse and pathetic to officers, telling politico, clearly hes made a lot of changes but he kept moving left and fell off the deep end. Whatever comes next, Big City Police chiefs are hoping to find middle ground with activists. The common goal of keeping our cities safe. But defunding the police is certainly not the answer. So joe biden has advice coming in from every direction but new monmouth poll finds that when it comes to handling race relations, voters nationally trust biden more than trump so whatever it is he proposes next, hes got a lot to lose. Bret . Bret peter, thanks. Up next, the fight over hydroxycut or and a major reversal you may not hear about from some health experts, next. Give me your hand i can save you.

Good evening, bret. The moment the study on hydroxychloroquine was published it was controversial. Among its findings, no benefit in treating covid19 and had dangerous side effects. Now the authors of that study have issued an apology. It is the drug that President Trump took and touted the benefits of. Now a study that said hydroxychloroquine was potentially dangerous it has issued a retraction. The reversal came about after the company that provided analysis and data refused to fully cooperate with a peer review citing client agreement and confidentiality requiremen requirements. They retraction reads in part we always aspire to conduct our Research Based on ethical guidelines. The World Health Organization which halted its own study on the drug because of the now retracted study reversed course even before they retraction was issued because its findings were wildly question. A separate study just released concludes hydroxychloroquine does not prevent the covid19. Las vegas is back. After a 78 day shutdown caused by the coronavirus pandemic, many casinos and resorts today resumed operation, swimming pools and shows remained close. The most recent data shows just over 20,000 new cases on wednesday and in the past five days theres been an uptick of a disease in 20 states. Health experts are worried, nationwide protests over the death of george floyd could spread the virus. I do think there is a potential unfortunately for this to be a seating event. In missouri, Officials Say despite crowds celebrating memorial day, there has not been an increase in new virus kcb cases in surrounding camden county. The number one county has not seen any more contacts and thats now been a good a while ago, ten days, 11 days.

Bret many observers feel the news Media Coverage of the response to the George Floyd Killing has hit new extremes, sometimes under internal pressure. Fox news media analyst and host of foxs media buzz howard kurtz has some example of the night. New york times editorial pages are relentlessly liberal and antitrump many staffers are rebelling over yesterdays oped by republican senator tom cotton titled send in the true. Black times journalists are especially offended. Nicole hannah jones, as a black woman, as a journalist, as an american, i am deeply ashamed that we ran this. Running this put black New York Times staffers in danger this piece was inflammatory and endorsing military occupation as if the constitution doesnt exist. And oped page is supposed to foster debate. James bennett said its important to run counter arguments though we understand that many readers find to senator cottons opinion painful, even dangerous. He backs the principle of openness to a range of opinions even those he may disagree with. They stood up to the woke progressive mob in their own newsroom and i come commend them of that. The media are overwhelmingly critical, often in harsh language. Donald trumps fascist performance. The president , meanwhile, if you watch fake news, cnn, you would think that the killers, terrorists, arsonists, anarchists, hoodlums, looters, and others would be the nicest, kindest, most wonderful people in the whole wide world, we couldnt find any to make anyone on those networks praising killers, arsonists, or thugs but Nicole Hannah jones did say this to cbs. Violence is when an agent of the state neils mans neck until all the life leaves his body. Destroying property which can be replaced is not violence. Tom cotton couldve made his case anywhere but then, times readers may not have been able to challenge it. Its back to business as usual today. Bret . How we, thanks. Some breaking news literally just moments ago, spokesman for the New York Times tweeted regrets for publishing that oped, apparently referring to the tom cotton piece. Senator tom cotton. This apology redouble what weve examined to the peace and the process leading up to its publication. This review made clear that a rushed editorial process led to the publication of an oped that did not meet our standards. As a result we are planning to examine both shortterm and longterm changes to include expanding our factchecking operation and reducing the number of oped we publish. Again, this is an oped from a republican senator. From arkansas. Thats not the only apology tonight, new Orleans Saints quarterback drew brees is apologizing for saying he opposes kneeling during the national anthem. He says his comments were insensitive and completely missed the mark. He was criticized by other professional athletes and cursed by some protesters in new orleans. One of the biggest supporters of charities for communities hit hard by Hurricane Katrina in new orleans. Next up, the panel on the memorial for george floyd and disagreement within the Trump Administration plus the next steps against groups organizing violence, thats up next. We have evidence that antifa and other similar extremist groups as well as actors of a variety of political persuasions have been involved in instigating and participating in the violent activity and we are also seeing foreign actors playing all sides to exacerbate the violence. We dont have a problem denouncing violence, mr. Mr. Governor. We dont have a problem, mr. Mayor, denouncing looting but it seems like some in the criminal Justice System have a problem looking and knowing there is probable cause and it takes a long time for you to go and do what you see that you need to do. Bret the attorney general speaking about the organized efforts and some of these protests turned into rioting and looting around the country and you see from reverend al sharpton at the Memorial Service for george floyd today in minneapolis, lets bring in our panel, former tennessee congressman harold ford jr. , currently the chairman, mollie hemingway, Senior Editor at the federalist and joe goldberg, editor in chief at the dispatch. Your thoughts on the memorial, the family obviously portrayed a picture of george floyd from a personal point of view but at times it obviously got political as reverend al took over. The families words are the best, they humanized him, he was cheerful, he was loved, he was loved by his family and like all of gods children, he was ordinary, he was flawed and he was human. And he will have a big impact, ordinary men and women often do, the ones that make the biggest impacts in life, a big impact in how we think about policing, spread across the country and there is no doubt, reverend sharpton who i have Great Respect and admiration for reminded us that we are in a political moment and all of that will play out here over the next several months. I do hope as people think about this, we find ways to try to rally the country and be more united, as much as we may be divided in the political decisions we make your over the next several months, whats right is right and whats wrong is wrong and our country has always risen to that moment and i hope this is one of those moments again. Bret jonah, there is this push and pull, obviously and the dash it doesnt seem like there has to be, you can be for peaceful protests but against rioting and looting, doesnt seem that hard to jump to make but it seems like lines are being drawn along how you talk about it. There are times of the day when you feel like youre taking crazy pills. Iin the then diagram in the United States of the america, somewhere close to like 95 of americans think looting, arson, rioting, mob violence are bad and protesting even if you disagree with it is an important rite in this country and that some thing a lot of people of pe agree on. We live in an age with speech codes where if you dont if you sound like youre referring to a protester as a rider or a writer as a protester, everyone gets triggered and all sorts of ludicrous ways. The vast majority of americans have a very common sense attitude about all the switches that violence is bad, the violence that was done against george floyd was worse than vandalizing some store but that doesnt mean vandalizing some store is good or something we should praise or simply dismiss and the lack of moral clarity and all of this rhetoric is maddening. Bret mollie, we talk to you about jim mattis and his comments, his letter that he wrote to the atlantic. As protected the president responded today via twitter saying probably the only thing barack obama and i have in common is that we both had the honor of firing jim mattis, the worlds most overrated general. I asked for his letter of resignation, felt great about it. His name was chaos, which i didnt like. His primary strength was personal public relations, i gave him things to do, battles to win but he seldom brought home the bacon, i didnt like his leadership style or much else about him and many others agree, glad hes gone. Quickly, his former chief of staff john kelly, also a former general said the president did not fire him. He did not ask for his resignation, the present has clearly forgotten how it actually happened or is confused, jim mattis is an honorable man. Clearly has a lot of supporters, mattis does, in both capitol hill and in the military, whats the fallout from all of this . Im not sure how much fallout there is at all, mattis is clearly a better tactician than he is a politician and his tactics were also in dispute when it came to how he was handling the situation in syria and iran but thinking about the content of what he said, he was saying that donald trump is not unifying the country and this is something that pleased a lot of people who said yes, donald trump isnt unifying the country. I think the problem is that the grounds for unity right now are being set by a mob that is demanding subservience to a very far left wing position, jonah said that 95 of the country opposes rioting, unfortunately a poll came out and Something Like 17 of people think rioting and looting can be justified, its dangerously High Percentage and there is a lot of support or refusal to condemn some of these positions, there is a Political Group named black lives matter and that Political Group has some very particular policy positions is one of them is that the police should be defunded nationwide. Probably 70 of the country at least does not agree with that policy position and being told that they have to agree with that policy position or be called a racist is not a way to have unity so we are seeing a lot of battle lines being drawn and that can be a good thing even if its difficult to go through. Bret you know, harold, i saw the former Hillary ClintonNational Spokesperson brian fallon tweet out defund the police, how is that going to work for democrats to get independence or disaffected republicans come election time . Look, i am africanamerican and i am not for defunding the police, i think that goes handinhand, good policing, to get rid of bad cops, those cops are bad cops that we saw in this video. Whatever you have a big political fallout, people are divided and i think we all love to be careful with some of the rhetoric. No doubt general mattis comments touched a nerve with the general public. Even senator scott to an extent. As we sit here today his numbers are down, five months, i do think president s in the middle of a crisis, a real crisis that we are facing, instead of issues and ideas that may excite their base, a group on the last, a group on the right, the president has to rise above it. I think the president s real challenges that he seems to be more concerned about himself and how he looks holding a bible upside down and turning it right side up in front of a church that he didnt get permission to go in front of, the American People want something a little different, not to say he cant turn it around but hes in a bind right now. We can use labels all we want but at the end of the day the president has to bring the country together during moments of crisis and i think we are lacking that right now. Bret all right, jonah, final thing, this New York Times apology for running up beds from a senator from arkansas which has an opinion that if you look at the polls, theres a big percentage of people that say rioting and looting must stop even if you have to call in the military, there is this internal debate at the New York Times and now theyve apologized for running the oped. Its nuts, i think that poll is a little off and i think a lot of people think that means the national guard, not necessarily federal troops but even so it was perfectly i dont agree with his case but it was a perfectly legitimate thing to run, the same newspaper that has run up beds by a leader of the taliban and by president president erdogan. This is a view that a lot of americans have some sympathy for her and they lost their minds over there, its insane. Bret this will be a topic, im sure, about these choices. Panel, i ran out of time but thank you very much. When we come back, the brighter side of things, some powerful images coming up. A lotta folks are asking me lately how to get their dishes as clean as possible. I tell them, you should try cascade Platinum Plus the power of oxi. Cascade platinum oxi penetrates and breaks down food soils some detergents can leave behind, washing away even the smallest food residue, so it doesnt redeposit on your dishes.

For a little help, on and off the road. Now when you buy or lease a new lincoln, well make up to 3 payments on your behalf. Now wi need all the breaks, that i can get. At liberty butchumal cut. Liberty biberty cut. Well dub it. Liberty mutual customizes your Car Insurance so you only pay for what you need. Only pay for what you need. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Bret finally tonight, the brighter side, attributes, hundreds of Health Care Workers at Jackson Memorial hospital paying tribute to george floyd during the Memorial Service. They knelt down for the 8 minutes and 46 seconds. Moments of silence representing the amount of time that former officers to Derek Chauvin pressed his knee on floyds neck. A light in the darkness. Peaceful protesters in denver held a moment of silence as they held their self cell phones in the air and lit up the sky for 9 minutes. Demonstrators and police dancing to the cupid shuffle.
