A Call To 'Protect The Protestors', As Law Enforcement Feels Increasingly Threatened
A House Homeland Security Committee hearing turned tense as lawmakers clashed over the source and impact of violent rhetoric toward law enforcement. Democrats focused on January 6th and ICE conduct, while Republicans and union officials warned that rising threats, including last week’s fatal shooting of two National Guard soldiers in Washington, D.C., show officers are facing unprecedented danger. Colorado Congressman and former police officer Gabe Evans joins the Rundown to discuss why he believes there are consequences to this rhetoric and how it's affecting recruitment, safety, and public trust.Democrats are saying they have reason to celebrate too, even after Republican Matt Van Epps won Tuesday’s special congressional election in Tennessee. That’s because his opponent, Democrat State Rep. Aftyn Bain, lost by nine percentage points in a district President Trump won by more than 20 points last year. Democrats see this as a sign they have momentum, but should the GOP actually be worried? Fox News contributor and former Deputy Chief of Staff to President George W. Bush, Karl Rove, joins the Rundown to discuss the implications of the Tennessee election result for the upcoming midterm elections and what the GOP needs to focus on if they want to keep control of the House and Senate.
