The task force will include the Tennessee National Guard, FBI, U.S. Marshals, the Department of Homeland Security, and other agencies. Trump compared the effort to the successful National Guard deployment in washington, D.C., emphasizing the importance of restoring safety to cities like Memphis known for their cultural heritage. During the event, Trump became frustrated with a reporter, Ebony McMorris of the American Urban Radio News Network, who repeatedly interrupted him with questions about the specifics of the Memphis plan. Trump called her &#8220;really obnoxious&#8221; and refused to take further questions from her until he called on her. McMorris has previously been involved in a controversial news story regarding a debunked claim about Border Patrol agents. The executive order did not specify when the task force would begin operations.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>President Donald Trump verbally skewered a reporter Friday who kept interrupting him during an Oval Office news conference.<\/p>\n<p>After signing an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/presidential-actions\/2025\/09\/restoring-law-and-order-in-memphis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">order<\/a> aimed at creating a state and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/white-house-releases-list-of-president-trumps-accomplishments-and-it-is-historic\/\" title=\"White House Releases List of ... ...\u2019s Accomplishments \u2013  And It Is Historic!\">federal task force<\/a> to crack down on crime in Memphis, Tennessee, similar to his deployment of the National Guard in Washington, Trump was fielding questions from reporters gathered for the occasion.<\/p>\n<p>One reporter in particular tried talking over him.<\/p>\n<p>The reporter was identified by the liberal news site <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/articles\/trump-snaps-reporter-oval-office-171949338.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HuffPost<\/a> as Ebony McMorris of the American Urban Radio News Network.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Mr. President, when are you going to give details on Memphis?&rdquo;
