It's especially concerning when video from early days of massive #PortlandProtest demonstrate significant but openly peaceful actions & not until after chemical & other crowd control weapons are deployed do we see widespread violence at these protests

This is some of the altercation that followed.
I know I’m fortunate it took until 33 to have a gun pointed at me but damn. That was rough.
This man needs to be held accountable.
Period.

#Whistleblower #PortlandProtest Breaking: According to this @DHSgov internal email, obtained @CBSNews, former Acting Under Secretary for Intelligence & Analysis Brian Murphy wrote colleagues on July 25th that the Portland violence was not “opportunistic” but “organized” citing

are organized and show up night after night, and share common TTPs (Tactics, Techniques and Procedures)..”
"Threat actors who are motivated by Anarchists or ANTIFA (or a combination of both) ideologies to carry out acts of violence against State, Local and Federal authorities..”
