The governor and mayor have asked them to leave. DHS has put out a list they say justifies their actions. It’s a complete break down of law and order. We really aren’t a republic at this point. And be sure. No reprecussions, and he expands this every week. If he wins again...

I would require more than a 39 second blurry clip as evidence. And definitely something not so easily staged.

Texted the Dubettes to see what they know. #1 says “something is happening but she doesn’t know what it is, but I’m staying out of downtown”. #2 says “I hear it might be a ploy or a stunt”? Ended with the ?

Well, staying out of downtown has been a thing for the past two months. I've discounted it, but then NPR pushed it out.
I really really really want this to not be true--and not just because this is the state in which I live.

The question is...whose stunt? Why do they need camo in a city? Are they trying to hide?

A thought on this: "Well boys and girls, you are learning that John Mayer was wrong. There is such a thing as the real world. You protest against a fascist state and, guess what, there is blowback. And it can get worse. In much of the world when they pick you up, they drop you in a deep dark hole and you are never heard from again. Hope you are ready because you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. "

The mayor of Portland demands federal agents out.
DHS says no way. Oregon attorney general is now suing DHS

Reminds me of the he beginnings of Argentina's Dirty War.
Hopefully, the federal officers won't be throwing those they have arrested out of airplanes over the Pacific ocean like Argentina did over the Atlantic.

I saw an interview with the mayor of Portland, and he is PISSED. Trump's unnamed and masked ersatz storm troopers grabbing people off the streets and shoving them into unmarked vans.

Conspiracy. Some of those could be imposters. If you have enough money, a person can hire anyone to do anything. Then get away with it.
