A Fox News segment turned tense as a host clashed with a contributor over President Donald Trump’s decision to send hundreds more National Guard members to Washington, D.C., after two troops were seriously injured in a shooting near the White House.
Jason Chaffetz, guest-hosting The Ingraham Angle on Wednesday, rejected attorney Ted Williams’ assessment that deploying more guard members to the capital was unnecessary and could have disastrous consequences.
“One of my deepest concerns right now is that the president has decided to send 500 additional National Guard members to the District of Columbia. And I’m asking, why in the hell are you doing that, President?” Williams said. “The National Guard are out there on the streets, and they are deeply concerned. They know that two of their fellow National Guardsmen have been shot and they are going to be on a high state of alert. And the last thing we need in the District of Columbia or anywhere else is another Kent State.”
