House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy joins "Fox & Friends' to weigh in on ending unrest in America.
This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
People will show up to protest
later on today,
Steve Ainsley and Brian back
to you.
Ainsley lets bring in House
Minority leader Kevin
Mccarthy
Good Morning,
good morning,
Ainsley whats your reaction to
this.
You probably saw the U haul,
truck being unloaded with
shields and riot gear and
anti police signs.
There is the video right there.
It looks like this was
coordinated. This particular
protest
more than coordinated
you have a? U haul, ready to go
before the announcement handing
out shields
its planned
here. We go corporate Compton C,
where someone walks up and
shoots two sheriffs sitting in
are ACA.
Now this
is this: what AOC meant when she
asked everybody to be
radicalized at this moment
instead of trying to reunite
this nation?
This is very concerning to me
not just here but throughout the
nation.
What is going on from Portland
Chicago to New York and now in
Louisville that these are
planned, orchestrated events
that people cannot be safe and
secure in their own streets.
Brian. There is a couple of
things
we have seen the pallets of
bricks being dropped off in New
York. A couple of months ago.
We have seen a van pull up with
bats in it, also in New York,
and then yesterday, this video of
a? U haul, pulling occupy opening
up the back. Everyone knew where
it would be and where to go,
show up and out come shields and
signs, and mostly anti police
signs and riot gear.
What do you think about that and
im going to factor in this
Christopher Wray says the other
day that Antifa is an ideology.
It is not a group or
organization
im wondering what he means by
that, and does that play a role
here.
Lets look at the license
plate of the? U haul,
who rented that? U haul!
Who is funding this?
You cant just supply people
with this type of armor, without
resources, without funding.
Where is that funding coming
from, and why is it being used?
How are these people knowing to
come?
Are there training facilities
that are teaching these people?
How to do this?
This is a grave concern, and
this is something that the FBI
should be focused on and we
should be opening up today. Know
hog funded this behavior that is
causing this problem. That
peoples lives are in danger,
Steve. You would think that
would be pretty easy to go over
to the U haul place and ask and
figure out who rented it. And
then you start connecting dots
Joe Biden put out a statement. He
said in the wake of her tragic
death, we mourn with her family,
her mother and community, and ask
ourselves whether justice could
be equally applied in America.
I know for so many people,
todays decision does not answer
that call.
What do you think of the form
other? Vice president wants
comments.
I wish the former vice
president. Would you speak out
more in this process?
He has been silence for so long.
That is why this builds
thats, why they can rent a
U haul and raise money
when you have a campaign that
has thirteen members of your campaign
that actually funded bringing
people paying their bail to
get out of this activity or
your vice president nominee had
done the exact same. That is a
real concern.
Steve, you are saying Joe Biden
needs to you, know finally
appear on camera and live say,
look its got to stop.
The violence in the street has
got to stop
thats. What leaders do
leaders stand up, especially
if you wants to be the leader of
the free world.
You can confront the press,
you can talk to the nation,
you know the first question that
should be asked: are those thirteen
people on your campaign still
working on your campaign
that put into a fund that
released people from jail paid
their bail to get out for these
type of activities?
Why wouldnt people continue to
do this?
They think they are being
rewarded for this
Steve. Let me justed a one
thing.
The former vice president did
add that violence is never
acceptable and, in brief comments
to reporters, he said. Peaceful
protests should be peaceful, do
not sully her memory or her.
