A trend of police officers and chiefs kneeling before protesters is discussed, with some videos showing individuals being pressured to apologize for "systemic racism and white supremacy."

The Milwaukee Police Chief delivers a viral response to protesters who criticized him for checking his phone, explaining he was receiving updates on a five-year-old girl shot in the head. He points out that 80% of homicide victims in his city are African American, yet protesters are "MIA" when it comes to addressing non-police violence. The hosts argue that "systematic poverty" and welfare rules that discourage two-parent households are the true issues.

Discrepancies are noted between Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe’s claim that the violence was one-sided and the local police chief's statement that both sides were combative. Critics argue that McAuliffe and the police may have allowed the situation to escalate by ordering a "stand down" or failing to separate the groups. The political fallout for Trump is discussed in the context of his failure to shift blame onto the Democratic state leadership.
