Government Executive: Hundreds of federal law enforcement personnel remained deployed throughout the nation's capital on Tuesday after President Trump activated them to respond to protests in the wake of the death of George Floyd, an unarmed black man killed by police in Minnesota last week.
The Justice Department on Monday deployed personnel in Washington from the FBI; Drug Enforcement Agency; Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; U.S. Marshals Service; and Bureau of Prisons. The Homeland Security Department sent officers from the Federal Protective Service and Customs and Border Protection. Military police and National Guard personnel were also stationed around the White House on Tuesday. They joined the Secret Service and the Interior Department's U.S. Park Police, who have been on the scene since the onset of the protests.
