Outsiders blamed as protests across U S grow violent
U S officials clash over who joins George Floyd demonstrations with warnings of outsiders from left and right. Governors and federal leaders cite Antifa, white supremacists, or drug cartels while offering limited proof. Some arrests show nonlocals involved, as authorities fear intensified clashes and National Guard deployments. Local leaders urge restraint and condemn vandalism while noting many arrestees are residents.
