Attorney General William Barr is reportedly directing the Federal Bureau of Prisons to deploy riot teams to Washington, D.C., and Miami as part of the Trump administration's response to protests that have escalated in the days after an unarmed African American man died in police custody.
A senior Justice Department official told USA Today and The Washington Post that the FBI also summoned its elite Hostage Rescue Unit to D.C. The official added that every FBI field office was setting up command posts and that they would work with local police to possibly bring charges against individuals who traveled from out of state to participate in rioting.
The FBI will review whether those in custody committed any federal crimes, the official noted.
The Justice Department and Federal Bureau of Prisons did not immediately return requests for comment from The Hill.
The moves from Barr and the FBI come just a day after mostly peaceful protests in D.C. and other cities erupted into violent clashes between some demonstrators and police that night.
Protests near the White House devolved into chaos ahead of the city's 11 p.m. curfew, with police deploying tear gas and flash bangs to disperse crowds. Several fires were reported, including at the AFL-CIO's national headquarters and the historic St. John's Church, a landmark where presidents have attended services since the 1800s.
D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser (D) announced earlier Monday that the city was imposing a 7 p.m. curfew due to the escalating violence. She said that “significant damage” had been done to the downtown areas and implored residents to "be part of the solution, not part of the destruction.”

“I’m highly recommending they blow you back out of the house.”
Video at the link. Wish we could clone him.
Make no mistake, the enemedia are just as complicit in the carnage and sedition as are antifa.
They are brazenly instigating violence with their race baiting propaganda. If any reporters are taken out in the crossfire, I won’t shed a tear.
One thinks you might be expecting too much...
Fox is cheerleading all night long. Sickens me....
Oh I'm sure the Dem-run cities will be just as cooperative with these feds as they are with ICE.

This twofaced bitch instigated it.
Let Chicoms, Antifa, BLM whole motley crew
run wild even defacing national monuments
The media is complicit in everything bad that happens. They must have lost interest in deploying coronavirus panic, and have switched to promoting and glorifying anarchy. I live in Rome, New York in central New York State. I just got back from the local Walmart. I stopped and talked to the kid working in the produce section. He told me that they sent everybody home at 5 p.m. yesterday (Sunday) because they thought there was going to be a riot. I said "Whaaaaattttt??? This is a quiet city. About the only sirens you hear are the fire trucks when they're heading out to Griffiss Business Park where Griffiss Air Base once was. I haven't heard a siren in a very long time. They usually come right down the street which is next to my apartment building complex. The only way there would be a riot anywhere in this city would be if they bussed people in from outside...and of course, that's exactly what they'd do.
Mexican, or Scottish?
“...they would work with local police to possibly bring charges against individuals who traveled from out of state to participate in rioting.”
Possibly?
They should be tracked down, ID’d, summarily tried and executed.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they sent troublemakers into the suburbs and small towns. I’m worried that, this time, they’re playing for keeps.
Be careful.
Last I heard he was employed by H&S Precision Stocks ....... ironic for a POS that missed and hit a mother and her baby.
Maybe they will refuse to let the FBI and US Attorneys access to the files of those arrested in order to shield them from federal charges, (of course they dismiss all charges against them).
“..I’d hose them with dye the banks use for stolen money....”
Agree, but you’re waaay too kind.
They should be hosed with that Israeli stink juice that never washes or comes off. They will have a rank, putrid stink on em for a long, long time.

And children, and dogs!
