It's another political stunt by Trump in a desperate attempt to win points since he's losing in the polls. And, yes, the fed troops are escalating tensions!

You are so wrong. Why do not Kate and Wheeler stop these rioters from the destruction. The feds are there to protect the federal property. They are doing their job, Kate and Wheeler won't do anything.

These are more like Brownshirts, secret police, masked in unmarked vehicles. Send them back to the Whitehouse.

The USA is not a police state. These *unmarked* enforcement troops have no business in Portland or any other US city. It reeks of fascism.

The feds are acting illegally. They are brutal and violent and have to go; they have no right being here.

It is hard enough for the Governor of any state to do what is right for its people with out the Feds coming in and stirring the pot.

This is not a police state. Federal police state that is. As long as it is peaceful protests, we don't need trump's goons.

The presence of unidentified men throwing American citizens into unmarked cars is what happens in dictatorships. Not only unconstitutional, it should alarm every single American.

They are not wanted and they are not good at what they are trying to do. They are inciting and engaging in more violence than they are discouraging.

We need federal secret police taking over every city in every state. Only King Trump's federal government can save us now. Long live the New Deep State, long live King Trump, there is only He! Amen !!

Trump sends enforcement to stop protests for equality, but governors are left to stop the pandemic. Sad

Federal Troops need to protect the Federal Buildings as long as possible. If they blocked off the whole area it would help. Leave an area open so they can protest in front of Kate Brown's office!

Our State politicians will not do anything about it in fact the Mayor, Wheeler joins the rioters to root them on. We the people need protection and our own State politicians won't give it so yes

Portland and Ted Wheeler has failed to protect the citizens and businesses. After the protesters burn it to the ground I don't want them here next.

Portland is burning and the city , state officials are letting it happen while hamstringing the police. This is NOT the Presidents fault.

The Oregon government and local police force has done a HORRIBLE job at keeping crime down, protecting cities, citizens and federal agents. If they can't do their job, TRUMP WILL.

Oh yeah, Trump did a great protecting when he incited the riot at the Capital on January 6th. Then had the unmitigated gall to pardon his MAGA idots for their crimes. What a guy...

I usually spend a number of days each month in the Portland area, including downtown. Having worked in downtown Portland for many years, yes it's not what it once was. Having said that, it's definitely not a "war zone" and nothing like Trump and his minions would like you to think.

A bunch of crap from the Trump administration that hopes to incite a violent response that justifies the use of violence and military action. Illegal, immoral, and unconstitutional. Get them out!

Because the exaggeration of conditions in Portland, LA, memphis and Chicago is nowhere near the actual events. He and his henchpeople including traitor dereamer are only creating a reason to occupy american cities and attack the democrats.

It’s a very small minority that’s causing a problem and for the most part, the marches are peaceful and none-combative. Portland’s problems, generally speaking; are the homeless sleeping on the streets and trashing the area, and not people marching in the streets.
