Wow. In Oregon’s emergency lawsuit to prevent the President from sending troops to protect federal property, a disturbing email from @PortlandPolice Sergeant Andrew Braun (badge #56961) was included. In it, Braun blames the victims of Antifa violence for their own assaults and attacks.

Braun claims that journalist @KatieDaviscourt, citizen journalist @hunnybadgermom and conservative activist @RheinDAmacher are somehow responsible for being attacked by “protesters.” He falsely labels Daviscourt and Chelly Boufferache as “counter-protesters” and accuses them of trespassing on federal property. In reality, these journalists stay near or on federal property because when they're on public streets in Portland, the Portland Police will not bother to investigate if they are assaulted or robbed.

Sgt. Braun is essentially parroting Antifa talking points, which justify violence against those they deem unwelcome in public areas they lay claim to. Antifa regularly argues that anyone they label as an “antagonizer” (i.e., press) is fair game for violent retaliation. This leadership mindset or policy helps explain why Portland Police have systematically failed to protect conservatives from being beaten or robbed by Antifa and the violent far-left over the years. ngocomment.comImage

An Oakland Antifa trans nonbinary militant who operated an extremist anarcho-communist (Antifa's ideology) blog has been sentenced to more than 19 years in prison for six domestic terrorist attacks. It is the longest sentence for an Antifa militant to date.

Casey Robert Goonan ("they/them"), who has a Ph.D. in black studies, pleaded guilty to using homemade explosive devices in June 2024 to destroy a @UCPD_Cal police vehicle on campus and to attempt to firebomb the Ronald V. Dellums Federal Building and U.S. Courthouse in Oakland. He also admitted to carrying out three arson attacks on the UC Berkeley campus.

Goonan admitted he was inspired by the Hamas direct action terror attacks of Oct. 7 and that he hoped his violence would inspire others to carry out further attacks "for Palestine."

Antifa and far-left militants are calling him a "political prisoner" and are demanding his immediate release.

The mainstream media reporting is not writing about his anarcho-communist violent extremism and is making it sound like he merely did vandalism on a car.Image

Here is the manifesto and claim of responsibility of the Oakland Antifa trans nonbinary militant, Casey Robert Goonan, who was just sentenced to over 19 years in federal prison for carrying out multiple bombing and arson attacks in the Bay Area. The attacks were done "for Palestine," the latest in a string of violent and deadly attacks in the U.S. where Palestine is invoked.

Goonan has a Ph.D. in black studies from Northwestern University. His lawyer asked for a light sentence, arguing that his client is bipolar and diabetic. Goonan's Antifa and far-left supporters showed up to the sentencing to express support for what he did.Image

On May 28, 2021, I ran for my life through the streets of downtown Portland, Ore.

Antifa had discovered me working undercover after one of their members, John Hacker, exposed me to the mob.

I screamed for help as I fled, but drivers and pedestrians looked away. The businesses were all shuttered, remnants of the ongoing destruction from the 2020 BLM-Antifa riots. There was nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.

They caught me. Antifa tackled me to the ground, tearing my knee tendon in the process as I slid across the pavement. They punched me over and over and tried to choke me out. I barely managed to stumble into @theNinesHotel, begging the staff to call 911. Instead, they tried to force me back outside and told me to wear a Covid mask. I dropped to the floor, refusing to move, pleading for them to call the police. They refused.

Outside, Antifa gathered. One of their ringleaders, Elizabeth Richter — the blonde woman — began rallying the crowd. She called on others on a livestream to come finish me off. She went inside the hotel and threatened me. Antifa also tried breaking their way into the hotel.

I escaped only by jumping into an elevator with a hotel guest. After that, I was taken by ambulance to the hospital with a police guard. I was soaked in my blood. On social media, Antifa immediately began trying to track which hospital I was in, hoping to finish the job.

As soon as I was discharged, I had to flee Portland. I moved between safe houses in different states. Antifa’s hunt for me was far from over.

@PortlandPolice closed the case a few weeks afterward, saying they couldn’t identify anyone. Nobody was ever arrested, just like in 2019 when I was beaten to the point that my brain bled.
What happened afterward? In 2023, at a civil trial in Portland, I sued John Hacker and Elizabeth Richter, two Antifa militants involved in that mob attack in the video above. A liberal judge allowed the defense's objection to the damning Twitter DMs between the two on the night of the attack from being shown to jurors. The trial was marred by multiple security threats that resulted in jurors being rushed out for safety reasons.

Hacker's lawyer told the jurors in the closing statement that she was Antifa and, “I'm going to remember every one of your faces when you leave here.” They rendered a not liable verdict for both.

Dustin Ferreira, the man in the wheelchair inciting the mob to try to break into the hotel to attack me, was given a $400,000 settlement last year by Portland for being arrested at a riot. ngocomment.com/p/inside-the-a…Image

Today’s killing of Christian children at a church in Minneapolis occurred in the context of a surge in far-left trans propaganda encouraging Trantifa and other leftists to take up arms to kill transphobes and “fascists.”

Their targets: Christians and conservatives.

I have been warning and reporting on this phenomenon for years and am called a liar by liberal media, and targeted with death threats by the far-left.Image

Trans far-left radicals are being encouraged every day to take up arms to legitimize their unfounded paranoia, sociopathy and mental health co-morbidities. Image

Why the Media Won’t Tell You Who Killed Children at Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis

A gunman killed children in a Minneapolis church. The shooter was trans. Media is already covering it up—just like Nashville. Read the Ngo Comment dispatch: ngocomment.com/p/why-the-medi…

Antifa unmasked: Another Portland Antifa violent suspect has been federally charged, this time for one of the most violent attacks on federal law enforcement in Portland so far. archive.is/dCEp7

Trans nonbinary far-left militant Robert Jacob Hoopes ("he/they") has been charged with felony aggravated assault of a federal officer with a dangerous weapon and depredation of federal property in excess of $1,000.

Hoopes allegedly tried to kill federal officers protecting the ICE building by hurling large rocks at their heads on June 14. One officer was hit in the head (pictured below).

Hoopes also allegedly used a stolen stop sign and pole as a battering ram to try to break inside the ICE facility so his comrades could burn down the building.

Hoopes graduated in 2023 from the expensive and extremely radical Portland liberal arts college @Reed_College_. Many of the violent 2020 BLM-Antifa rioters had ties to the southeast Portland college.

The FBI surveilled Hoopes at his home on NE 16th Ave. in Portland, Ore. He is the 22nd Portland Antifa rioter to be federally charged so far since the insurrection began on the ICE facility two months ago. ngocomment.comImage

A liberal Oregon federal judge has denied the prosecution’s request that extremely violent Portland Antifa suspect Robert Hoopes be kept in custody. He will be released and will have the opportunity to destroy any evidence that could show how he was part of an Antifa conspiracy.
Fable Sorenson, the woke far-left girlfriend of violent Antifa federal felon suspect Robert J. Hoopes, has released a statement about how they tried to delay his arrest when officers showed up at the home by asking irrelevant questions. She claims he is a pacifist Quaker and lies about them surviving the arrest only because they are in a nice white neighborhood (a black anti-ICE violent suspect was arrested without issue recently). The court was shown footage of a masked militant identified as Hoopes hurling rocks at federal agents in an insurrection attack and using a metal sign pole as a battering ram to try to break inside a federal facility. One officer was struck in the head with a rock allegedly thrown by Hoopes, seriously injuring him.

Hoopes graduated from the expensive Portland liberal arts college, @Reed_College_. He's from Newtown, Pa., where he attended the George School, an extremely expensive boarding and day school that costs over $51,000 in tuition alone per year. His father flew in from New York to support his son at the hearing, and members of the Portland Quakers @fgcquaker religious community came to testify in support of him. (I have contacted the Portland Quakers group for comment.)

Hoopes laughed and smiled after being released without bail by a liberal federal judge despite the serious violent felony charges and the objection of the prosecution.Image
