Johnson, Jeffries react to Trump's comments on 'war from within'
Source: ABC News
A day after President Donald Trump told top-ranking generals and admirals that the U.S. is fighting a "war from within," Speaker Mike Johnson said the president's comments show his ability to "take crime seriously," whereas House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said the remarks were "disturbing."
The two politicians spoke on "Good Morning America" on Wednesday about the president's statements along with the government shutdown, which took effect at 12:01 a.m. on Wednesday.
While Johnson said he had not heard Trump's remarks on Tuesday -- as he was "a little busy." Johnson, who was pressed about whether training troops in American cities was appropriate, said Trump's comments were "cherry-picked out of a long speech."
Trump said Tuesday that the military's job is not only to protect the United States from threats abroad, but also what he repeatedly referred to as a domestic enemy in American cities.

With one mealy-mouthed word (i.e. "disturbing" ) from a Democrat. This trend among large media outlets is so obvious at this point it cannot be anything but purposeful IMHO.
As an aside I really hope an honest recount of what Jeffries said would contain stronger words than "disturbing" 
I guess he never said what time on Wednesday.
