Dear Portland,

We are no longer merely living in uncertain times—navigating a global health pandemic and economic crisis—in Portland, we are now living through a violent federal paramilitary occupation.
Over the last 2 months, our community has experienced repeated acts of violence at the hands of the @PortlandPolice—from the indiscriminate use of tear gas to targeting of members of the press—& now the federal government is violating our constitutional rights on our own streets.
While there are many elements of this situation beyond City Council's control, I am committed to doing everything in my power to oust the federal occupiers and hold the PPB accountable.

In its press release, DHS offers "a snapshot of the lawless destruction & violence" in Portland

On the whole, the list brazenly conflates violence & vandalism. Classic tactic to make space to inflict actual violence on ppl exercising 1st Amendment rights.
