Violence and mayhem have become a fixture in Portland thanks to Democrats who are tacitly condoning the state of anarchy in the beleaguered Pacific Northwest city.
With the riots in the Rose City now raging for close to two months while Mayor Ted Wheeler and Governor Kate Brown refuse to restore order, a violent mob set fire to the police union office on Saturday night.
Fortunately, the fire was put out before the building was burned down but the lack of action from state and local authorities continues to embolden the criminals in the streets and put law enforcement personnel at risk.
The torching of the Portland police union office comes after the top Democrat in America, Speaker Nancy Pelosi smeared federal law enforcement agents who were sent to restore order as Trump's "stormtroopers" in a tweet that served as an exclamation point on her party's war on America.
Via Newsweek, "Pelosi Calls Out Trump Admin Over Portland Unrest: 'We Live in a Democracy, Not a Banana Republic'":
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi reminded President Donald Trump late Saturday that the United States is "not a banana republic," and she refused to let protesters in Portland be used as "props" in his political games.Pelosi joined several top Oregon lawmakers in criticizing Trump administration and top federal agencies for placing faceless "stormtroopers" in Portland to quell weeks of ongoing racial injustice protests. The Democratic House leader condemned the "one-sided violence" from Department of Homeland Security agents and accused the president of utilizing "secret police" in American streets.Pelosi, along with Oregon Congressman Earl Blumenauer, issued a statement Saturday in response to at least one video showing heavily militarized agents -- without identification badges -- handcuffing and "kidnapping" Portland protesters. U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials acknowledged in a statement last week they have agents on the ground in Portland.
The video that triggered Pelosi shows a masked, black-clad rioter being approached by federal agents in camouflage uniforms, put into a vehicle, and whisked away while other troublemakers shrieked and waved their smartphones in the air.
Judging from what went down again last night, what is needed is MORE of this sort of enforcement despite what the deranged Pelosi says.
Despite the third-world anarchy in the streets of his city, Mayor Wheeler showed up on CNN's "State Of The Union" on Sunday morning to denounce President Trump even as his city is under attack by marauding communists.
According to Mayor Ted:
"The tactics that the Trump administration are using on the streets of Portland are abhorrent," Mayor Ted Wheeler told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union.""People are being literally scooped off the street into unmarked vans, rental cars, apparently. They are being denied probable cause. And they are denied due process. They don't even know who's pulling them into the vans. The people aren't identifying themselves. And, as far as I can see, this is completely unconstitutional," Wheeler said.
As for President Trump, he weighed in on the deteriorating situation in Portland via his Twitter feed:
Per the POTUS:
"We are trying to help Portland, not hurt it. Their leadership has, for months, lost control of the anarchists and agitators. They are missing in action. We must protect Federal property, AND OUR PEOPLE. These were not merely protesters, these are the real deal!"
Democrats have made it perfectly clear that they are on the side of the domestic terrorists and not of law-abiding Americans and the only way to stop them is for decent citizens to turn out in record numbers come November and remove them from power.
