The US authorities have detained more than 100 people for participating in the riots and damaging federal property, White House spokeswoman Kaylee Mackinani said.
“The Justice Ministry detained more than a hundred anarchists for unrest and the destruction of federal property. The Justice Department also charged four people in a federal court for trying to drop the statue of Andrew Jackson in Lafayette Square from the pedestal”, – she said.
According to Makinani, the FBI is investigating about 200 cases of internal terrorism, and the head of the Justice Department, Attorney General William Barr, has created a working group to combat anti-state extremism.
