NYPD New York City Police Department officers were filmed on Tuesday night shoving and screaming at two Associated Press journalists covering the George Floyd protests. AP broadcast producer Robert Bumsted and photographer Maye-E Wong were in the city to report on how the police were dispersing protests after curfew. As the situation continued to escalate, the two journalists kept filming as a group of officers shoved and cursed at them despite their attempts to inform the police that they were members of the press. 'He got away with murder' "I always felt that he got away with murder," said President Donald Trump about MSNBC's Joe Scarborough, in an interview with Fox News Channel's Brian Kilmeade. Kilmeade, who was interviewing Trump, asked the president about his feud with Scarborough, meaning the many times he's suggested that Scarborough murdered a woman. “Why put them in your crosshairs when there’s so many other huge problems out there?” Kilmeade asked. As in, specifically asked the president about the topic. Trump, who Kilmeade was interviewing, answered "I hit back. I fight," before stating outright that he thinks that Joe Scarborough committed a murder. After the president of the United States, who Brian Kilmeade was at that very moment interviewing, said in that interview in answer to Kilmeade asking specifically about it, that he thinks journalist and former member of congress Joe Scarborough is a murderer who got away with that crime of murder, Kilmeade bravely responded by saying "Thanks." Also in the interview Trump said he wasn't hiding in his bunker he was just inspecting it. ‘Black Grievance Politics' Candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden gave a speech on Tuesday amid the many crises facing the United States, and in general received praise and positive reviews.

Likewise, MSNBC had much praise for Biden's remarks, though MSNBC contributor Eddie Glaude Jr. said that while the speech is a "good beginning," Biden "needs to offer a set of remedies that actually rise to the level of the problems we face.” On Fox, however, Brit Hume ripped the speech, saying on Tucker Carlson Tonight that it contained “black grievance politics we’ve been hearing for years.” Well... bye.
