(The Blaze)—Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is getting ridiculed for arguing that the mainstream media exaggerated “a couple of incidents” of vandalism during anti-ICE protests into full city rioting.
Bass made the comments at a media briefing Thursday, where she was confronted by a reporter who challenged her on the spread of anti-ICE violence. He cited the terror attack on an ICE facility in Texas allegedly planned and executed by heavily armed left-wing activists.
“Well, let me just say that the quote-unquote ‘riots’ that were reported never happened,” Bass responded.
“We did have a couple of incidents of vandalism and looting,” she continued. “But the way that it was portrayed nationally was like the whole city was up in flames, the comparison to 1992, which was completely and 100% inappropriate.”
She was also dismissive of the alleged terror attack on an ICE facility in Texas and said she didn’t know anything about it.
