MS NOW Reporter pushes back against Trump and his administration

Barrón-López noted Trump called seditious behavior "punishable by death," reposted "Hang them," and suggested executing former Joint Chiefs Chairman Mark Milley. She cited Trump's 2016 rally rhetoric about punching protesters and former Defense Secretary Mark Esper's memoir account of Trump asking why police couldn't "just shoot protesters" in the legs.

Barrón-López emphasized Trump has repeatedly advocated violence against enemies since 2016, while emphasizing the White House has not addressed its role in escalating rhetoric amid rising political violence across the country.
