Some have suggested recent actions in Portland as a trial run for martial law, considering how badly run was the attempt at using federal forces in DC. They are DHS and feds, without identification, and refusing to identify themselves.
Apparently graffiti is terrorism in the absence of statues to topple, as Trump attempts to provoke a serious RWNJ incident to match the Trumpian carnage meme contradicted by generally peaceful BLM protests. Portland is now better positioned than Seattle, given the historical pattern of protests.
“Oregon Public Broadcasting confirms tweets today that federal officers in camouflage but no agency identification or badges, driving unmarked non-government rental cars, are grabbing protestors off streets in Portland and not talking w local authorities”
A peaceful protester in Portland was shot in the head by one of Donald Trump’s secret police. Now Trump and Chad Wolf are weaponizing the DHS as their own occupying army to provoke violence on the streets of my hometown because they think it plays well with right-wing media.

This letter from Acting Homeland Security Secretary Wolf is extremely alarming. Like 5 alarm fire alarming. Like justifying the Gestapo invading Portland.https://t.co/XAJUzTgFPd

I'm down at the Justice Center / Federal Courthouse. After a massive show of force (see my last livestream) the feds have retreated. And now protesters have removed the fence that was put around the park this morning. pic.twitter.com/npZCGOQGfd

I have lots to promote including a podcast. But instead follow the folks at @tacoma_action and see how you can support their campaign against police violence and for Black Lives in my home town.

If you are in Portland and have anything to report about Police abuse or these federal agents kidnapping people, call the DEFUND HOTLINE 504-291-8575 and leave a voicemail so we can let people know. #DefundThePolice #PDXprotest #BlackLivesMatter

I told Acting Secretary Wolf that the federal government should remove all federal officers from our streets. His response showed me he is on a mission to provoke confrontation for political purposes. He is putting both Oregonians and local law enforcement officers in harm’s way.

Please stop blaming President Dumpster, it’s not his fault, he can’t help himself. He is who he is. Blame the 53 traitors that call themselves republican senators. It is with out a doubt their fault. Vote Blue like your life depends on it. It probably does.
Trumps gestapo. This sure looks like impeachment material. He needs to be Stopped Ask the national guard to go in and protect the citizens. These guys are NAZI GESTAPO just like their leader traitor don.
WTF, was the bullet rubber or lead, and is the vic alive or dead, or what?!
Violent anarchists? With deadly spray paint. Maybe someone sprayed Kilroy Was Here and they freaked out?
Trump has made it clear many times he wants the Democratic Party to cease to exist. It’s not going to happen at the upcoming election so he’s going another route…fear, intimidation and threat of death.
shot in the head over graffiti … then trump wonders why his ratings go down
