National Police Association spokesperson retired Sgt. Betsy Smith says the media is currently spending a great deal of time talking about the Jan. 6 breach of the U.S. Capitol but not enough on violent riots perpetrated over the past year by Antifa and other activist groups.

“Right now, their current obsession is, you know, white supremacy, white supremacists, and the Capitol riot. They don’t want to talk about the other 99 percent of violent riots that American law enforcement has been dealing with for the past almost year,” Smith, a 29-year veteran of a large police department in the suburbs of Chicago, told NTD’s “The Nation Speaks.”
