Summary

As protests continue across the country in the wake of George Floyd's death, growing calls to defund the police are getting a lot of support as well. So what does "defund the police" mean exactly? Co-host of "The Five" and Democratic Strategist Juan Williams and Kings County Sheriff and incoming President for California State Sheriffs Association David Robinson explain the new push and whether they are in favor of it. For weeks, the American people were told to stay home and social distance when in public. That was before the death of George Floyd. Now there has been about two weeks of nationwide protests against police brutality and racism. That has meant thousands of people in the streets with many not following the CDC guidelines. Professor of Medicine at NYU Langone Dr. Marc Siegel discusses the possibility that large protests could spark a second wave of Covid-19 cases. Plus, commentary by author and former New York Times reporter Alex Berenson. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
