 Barr Says CBS Report On Trump And Troops Is False
June 7, 2020 By Tristan Justice

U.S. Attorney General William Barr debunked claims that President Donald Trump demanded 10,000 federal troops be deployed on the streets of Washington D.C. to quell protests that up to this week had sparked the worst outbreak of violence seen for decades in the nation’s capital.

“A senior administration official told our CBS’ David Martin, that in a meeting at the White House on Monday morning, the president demanded that 10,000 active duty troops be ordered into American streets. Is that accurate?” asked Margaret Brennan on CBS’ Face The Nation Sunday.

“No, that’s completely false,” Barr said plainly. “He did not demand that.”
