On the fifth night of demonstrations in New York City, images of looters and police being attacked splashed across social media into the early hours Tuesday morning, even as the city imposed its first curfew in decades and large groups of protesters peacefully demonstrated.

The more chaotic elements of the evening drew recriminations hours later from the White House to Albany with President Donald Trump tweeting “CALL UP THE NATIONAL GUARD” and Cuomo calling for more police presence amid what he saw as a failed response.

“I am disappointed and outraged in what happened in New York City last night,” Cuomo said during a news briefing Tuesday.

“The police in New York City were not effective at doing their job last night.

Cuomo has put state police and 13,000 members of the National Guard on standby and even mused about invoking his statutory power to remove the mayor, but said the police had the capacity to handle the situation on their own.

When asked about reforms being weighed by the city council to curb police aggression, specifically making it illegal for cops to use the deadly chokehold that killed Garner in 2014, de Blaiso said that he would work with lawmakers and would support legislation as long as it provided officers the ability to use the maneuver in life-threatening situations.
