    I followed along starting on your post. I didn’t say the entire conversation…a mere snippet of the would’ve sufficed for comparison purposes. I’m not blaming any one, I leave that for you guys.

    Antifa is made just up group in your cloistered little world. Okay, here it goes: it’s A decentralized global organization with the stated goal destabilizing the west with origins from communists fighting the Nazis. Using the word Gestapo shows where you emotions are. The federal facilities are under siege. Third world countries? Great attempt at manipulation though using such hyperbole. Surprised you did add that chemical weapons or occupation or armored assault vehicles are being used either.
    You can advocate all you want. You’re looking for sympathy for her? Not from me for sure.
    Constitutional authority to protect federal facilities and personnel? Yeah ok. Thanks for the facts. I don’t see anything resembling martial law or war zones. I’ve been to war zones, these areas don’t look like them.
    You also have to ask why did they shove the illegals in poor parts of towns?
    Thanks for the I din do nuffin my feelings are hurt themed response though.
    Oh yeah, screw your feelings. It’s all ya got. Emotions aren’t facts. Smiley back at ya…:D

    Antifa means anti-Fascist. Yes, that started with the Communists in Russia. Can you point to anything today that is pro-communist from any American Antifa? Any Antifa leaders? Anything other than just an idea and a loose group today that is anti-Fasicst?

    For that matter, can you show Federal facilities being under siege, please? And the Alderperson wasn't in a Federal facility. She was in a hospital, doing her job protecting the Constitutional rights of her constituent. What is under siege in this situation? Not any Federal building, but the Constitutional rights of a human being. You really going to feel good about defending the actions of ICE here?

    Trump has consistently called Portland "war ravaged," is "burning to the ground," and being overrun by crime and terror. This is a lie. You repeating Trump's lies doesn't make it any more true. Instead, why not read what the Police Chief of Portland is saying. Are there protests in Portland? Yes, but that's like asking is they sky blue. Somebody is always protesting something in Portland. But is the city burning down and a war zone? Far from it.

    Antifa FAQs: Where Did Antifa Come From?
    “In the United States, organized Antifa can be traced back to the 1980s, specifically to a group originating in Minneapolis called Anti-Racist Action. Mark Bray, author of Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook, explains how Anti-Racist Action took inspiration not only from existing European Antifa groups, but also from a variety of American radical-left formations. He points to the John Brown Anti-Klan Committee—formed by former members of domestic terrorist groups like the Weather Underground and the May 19th Communist Organization—as well as the Black Panthers and the Black Liberation Army as examples. Bray writes that “it is crucial to situate [Anti-Racist Action] within a much longer and deeper struggle against a wide variety of Klansmen, hooded or otherwise.”

    The left is often associated with what again? You realize what a decentralized structure is? Basically a leaderless organization with a central goal. A type of warfare. Try again.

    Like I said the cities aren’t war ravaged.

    So enlighten us to how surrounding federal buildings, blocking/impeding federal agents, firebombing federal buildings, trying to burn federal buildings with agents inside, pelting them with rocks, chasing their vehicles is not related to sieges? The contortions should prove interesting. Jesus, really? Portland police? You use the police when it suits you.

    I don’t think I said she was in a federal facility, I realize where she was and what she was doing. Admirable but… Thanks for repeating it incase I missed it the first time. Well done.

    As long as the crime stays out of the affluent/white areas, crime must not be an issue? In Chicago 15 neighborhoods out 77 are where 293 people have been murdered to include children. It matters to the people in those neighborhoods. Guess where they put the unvetted illegals? She as f wasn’t in the other 62 neighborhoods. Again, there’s only crime issues when the problems are affecting the affluent folk. There are some folks who live in the area that are calling bullshit on the mayor, the previous mayor for the crap they are pulling. Were you concerned? Probably not. You’re just another hypocritical hyperbole spewing tool.

    She tangled with federal agents and lost. She’s special because she decides which laws she wants to stand up for? Those poor illegals. Boo hoo.

    Please show the burning buildings. Or the buildings attempted to be burned. Is Portland truly under siege? Or is the President lying just so he can send troops into an American city that doesn't support him? The judge that ruled the troops aren't needed, and the quote from the Portland Police Chief should give you some clues.

    And last time I looked, citywide crime stats include entire cities. And numbers don't lie. Across the cities like Portland and Chicago, violent crime is down in both the first half of 2025. This is another fact you're ignoring to allow the POTUS to ignore and trample the Constitution.

    Which is what the ICE Agents were doing in the hospital, trying to apprehend someone without a warrant, when asked to produce one by the Alderperson, who was doing her job. What Constitutional Right does ICE have to handcuff someone simply asking to see a warrant? None. Same right they have to apprehend anyone in a non public area without a warrant or permission. Why do you defend blatantly unconstitutional actions?

    Tell it to your boss.

    At the request of Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, I am directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland, and any of our ICE Facilities under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists. I am also authorizing Full Force, if necessary. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

    Of course, it's not war ravaged. What, have we gone back in time and don't have video evidence anymore?

    Wonder if that’s the same priest? This is insane. Cowardly (and clearly criminal) attack.

    From the court case involving the woman that an agent shot.

    Attorney for woman shot by Border Patrol claims agent said, 'Do something b----' before shooting

    So looking like it wasn't brandishing, so why did you claim it was and that this was more than just having a gun?

    OMG we’re doomed I tell ya, doomed. Nobody said it wasn’t a dark day. More of the drama and theatrics expected. Some can move on others obviously can’t. So yeah no sense at all.
