Nobody in that room knows enough to comment, nor any details. It is, after all a WHITE HOUSE PRESS EVENT, not a press event for specific cities.
That’s not down playing the events....it’s terrible, but has been for a length of time. A NATIONAL PRESS BRIEFING should address foreign relations, budget matters, etc.
I realize you folks will jump on me, but those events are not held for a rally, etc. this is for US, the people to find out what our government is doing, or not doing regarding the country. Questions on this, certainly would be welcomed, but surely the White House is not in a position to address local problems.

There is the issue of increasing violence across the USA and there is most definitely selectivity being employed on the subject or lack of it, all having to do with defunding/dismantling police and enforcement, hence pertinent
at the WH level.
Floyd was a local issue for about 30 seconds!
