It's not right to have federal troops in Portland. They have escalated the tension and violence in the city.

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.

me me

we will see you at the polls, that is if we have any city to vote from! let these people come to your house and destroy your things!

David Flett

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

P Robbins

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.

Rick Lewis

Trump is making it politics.

Oakley Taylor

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

Richard Dillard

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.

Karla Pouillon

They weren't asked to be there and should never have been there in the first place. LEAVE!

Larry Hunt

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.

me me

NOT PEACEFULL! Burning the city down is not peacefull.

💛🖤 RAG 💛🖤

Enough is enough! They're looting and rioting, pick em up and lock them up together with the mayor and governor who let this happen for month's !!!

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.

Bruce Sharp

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.

Tarasem

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 !!

Protecting fed prop, while lib mayor sits on is ,,,,

Lorina De Larm

There's absolutely NO difference in people from a foreign country coming here and terrorizing citizens. THEY ARE TERRORIST'S

Conner Brown

There needs to be some action taken to protect and stop the destruction

Ruth Beal

Portland should be taking care of the problem but, since they are not then yes the Federal government should to protect the business that are being destroyed. PORTLAND HAD THERE CHANGE TO DO THE JOB

P Robbins

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

Brad Livsey

You bet! Whatever it takes to point people home and off the streets. NEGATIVE ACTIONS deserve NEGATIVE CONSEQUENCES 4 sure!!

Christena

It is out of control. They are needed.

Nancy

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!

Pam W

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

Royal Atkinson

Duh. When local protection is not provided, who else is going to provided it? It is federal property, so who else to protect it then?

Ben Hargis

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.

Russell T Stanage

Thank God for Trump and the Feds!!!

Aaron Walden

Someone needs to take action and obviously the mayor and state leadership isn’t.

me me

Leaders Ted Wheeler, Kate Brown and Wyden are ruining our city.They let riots, looters and terrorists run our city.We need help,what about our rights and the rights of our Police.STAY arrest them all!

Steven Huillet

Until these rioters stop destroying property they need to stay and throw all them in prison!

Felix Pressler

This is not peaceful protest, but absolute anarchy trying to change total government with far left control; mayor & governor don't care about the property damage& citizen welbeing

Kimmy Wasatch

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

President Trump gave Mr. Musk the authority to look at the budget

Rick McCollough

How best to find wasteful government spending than to go to the source of the payments. Musk isn’t going to stop or interfere with SS payments or any other social programs.

Latterdaysaint

Of course he should have access, DOGE has saved 100 million dollars so far!

Things are getting strange enough with now having a co-president.

Latterdaysaint

Elon musk and DOGE has about 100 million dollars so far!

Ridiculous

Duane Wyman

No American 🇺🇲, elected Musk‼️

Michael McKay

That system is our most secure data system and a non elected, or person who has not been properly vetted should not have access to such a sensitive system.

Things are already expensive, now Trump wants to increase that by 25%. How is that beneficial to anyone?
