10:20 p.m. — Rep Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, joined “The Story” earlier tonight to discuss the George Floyd case.
“I think two things are true. George Floyd should be alive,” Crenshaw said. “There’s a very clear injustice there and I think there’s also wide agreement on what should happen with respect to bringing justice to not just that one officer, but we’re looking at all of them. There’s no disagreement there.
“But there also shouldn’t be disagreement on what’s happening with these riots and the injustice that is occurring against innocent people in Minneapolis because of this. And I’m a little confused that some people that want to just brush right past that and make excuses for it. That’s also not OK.”
10:10 p.m. — Fox News’ Jonathan Serrie tells “The Ingraham Angle” that he’s never seen anything like tonight’s violence in Atlanta, where he’s lived off and on since the early 1980s.
10:05 p.m. — Fox News has obtained an internal memo from FBI Director Christopher Wray to employees about the George Floyd case.
It reads, in part: “Law enforcement officers have indispensable and often dangerous jobs, but that doesn’t diminish the crucial, overarching role we play in society – to protect and serve all citizens no matter their race, creed, orientation, or station in life. This, of course, includes those citizens who are in law enforcement custody.
“When we fail to honor their rights, we not only tarnish the badge we wear, we completely erode the trust so many of us in law enforcement work so hard to build, particularly within minority communities. The events this past week in Minneapolis clearly illustrate just how quickly that trust can be lost.”
10:00 p.m. — The news from Atlanta: “A crowd gathered in front of the CNN Center and grew over the course of several hours, initially breaking windows and spray-painting the CNN sign, and later throwing objects — including what appeared to be a firecracker that exploded — and reportedly shooting BB guns into the lobby.”
