The president on Monday said he was dispatching thousands of military personnel and soldiers throughout the nation's capital to squelch protests in response to the death of George Floyd, an unarmed black man who died after a Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck for several minutes.

Previous nights had devolved into looting and vandalism in the nation's capital as police clashed with protesters.
