Gov. Kate Brown Says Feds Have Agreed to “Phased Withdrawal” From Portland Starting Thursday

Oregon State Police will now provide “protection for free speech” and security around the federal courthouse.

July 29, 2020

The withdrawal will begin Thursday, July 30. Brown said the federal agents
will also clean up the building's exterior, which is covered with graffiti.

Oregon State Police will arrive at the building to "provide protection for free speech
and the security of the exterior of the courthouse with the Federal Protective Service."
A small contingent of year-round personnel who already occupied the federal courthouse
will remain, Brown said.

Federal officials appeared noncommittal to the withdrawal terms Brown announced.
(temp) Homeland Security Secretary (creepy) Chad Wolf said federal officers wouldn't
leave until he was confident protesters were no longer damaging the courthouse.

https://www.wweek.com/news/state/20...d-withdrawal-from-portland-starting-thursday/

“A limited contingent of federal officials, who act as building security year-round,
will remain and will stay focused on the interior of the U.S. Courthouse,”
Brown said in her announcement Wednesday.

A statement from Acting Department of Homeland (DHS) Security Secretary Chad Wolf
also made clear that the feds aren’t leaving Portland completely. Wolf said officers from
the Federal Protective Service (FPS)—a branch of DHS responsible for protecting federal
property—will “coordinate” with OSP.

Oregon State Police (OSP) and the Portland Police Bureau (PPB)

OSP will be in charge of guarding the federal courthouse, and reporting directly
to the state government.

Juan Chavez, an attorney and director of the Civil Rights Project at the Oregon Justice Resource Center

“I don’t know how they [OSP] act on their own,” Chavez said. “I can say that they have
participated in every PPB atrocity we have been protesting, so I don’t know if they’re
much different from PPB. That said, they’re under more local control [than federal officers]
and under state law, so if the Legislature wants to restrain them, they can.”

Trump says Oregon leaders must clean out ‘beehive of terrorists,’
threatens to send in National Guard

Professional anarchists ?

Jul 30, 2020

Neither Trump nor federal officials have offered any evidence that professional agitators
are at work. In fact, an AP analysis released Thursday found that most of the 200 people
arrested during downtown Portland protests are local white people, often college students,
with no previous criminal record in Oregon.

https://www.oregonlive.com/news/202...ists-threatens-to-send-in-national-guard.html

Portland protesters saw zero clouds of tear gas and little police interaction (Thursday night)
as Oregon State Police (OSP) replaced the feds guarding the Hatfield Federal Courthouse
OSP remained inside the courthouse as protesters chanted, gave speeches, and lit a few
bonfires in the street Thursday evening.

Meanwhile, the Washington Post stumbled upon evidence that the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) has been keeping "intelligence reports" on journalists
who leaked DHS documents about the feds' recent work in Portland. DHS' top boy
(creepy) Chad Wolf claims he knew nothing about this. Great job, Chad!

The feds are also trying to overturn a restraining order that bars them from using
force/arrest to keep journalists and legal observers (who aren't committing a crime)
from doing their jobs at a protest. Their argument? Too many people who aren't really
press are wearing "press" badges to protect them from indiscriminate police violence.
I feel like this should raise more alarms about violent police than the protesters
they're attacking.

As the Oregon State Police assumed guard duty at the Mark O. Hatfield U.S. Courthouse
President Donald Trump warned that a federal withdrawal from downtown Portland was
conditional.

In a White House press conference, Trump warned that state troopers had 48 hours to
prove they could prevent protesters from defacing the federal courthouse or he would
deploy the National Guard to crack down even more harshly than a Department of
Homeland Security task force already has.

https://www.wweek.com/news/2020/07/...days-to-clean-out-this-beehive-of-terrorists/

Williamette Week graciously posted Trump's answer to the following question, from
his Thursday press conference-

Q: Thank you, Mr. President. Yesterday, DHS came to an agreement with the governor
of Oregon to remove federal officers, and Oregon state troopers took over. Mayor Ted
Wheeler was noticeably absent from that agreement. Are you confident, sir, that the state
of Oregon will be able to quell the protests in Portland? And if the violence does continue
would you consider redeploying federal troops?

Trump spends the week telling lies about how much money the Portland courthouse is worth,
and he is still telling lies about the Portland protesters- still saying there are agitators and Antifa.

Today, in the news, no evidence found at Portland linking to anarchist or Antifa.
(The federal goons arrested people that committed no crimes.)

AG Bill Barr ordered federal departments to send in their police forces, and Border Patrol
and the US Marshalls service to Portland. It was a shit-show performance, because there
was no training for crowd control and protests. It was a hastily thrown together operation.

Getting Paid To Collect Illegal Data On Protesters ?

August 5,2020

Flight tracker data shows that on at least three occasions, airplanes owned by Homeland Security circled for hours over Portland protests—on the evenings of July 22, 28 and 29. Since July 16, DHS has restricted flights of all nondesignated aircraft within the airspace directly above Portland for "special security reasons." The restrictions remain in place through Aug. 16.

The planes made repeated, concentric circles over the city for hours, in a technique consistent with "dirtboxing"—when a circling plane equipped with Digital Receiver Technology, a DRT box, or a cell site simulator mimics a cellphone tower, effectively intercepting the signals of nearby cellphones. This allows government agents to retain cell phone data and track locations of those in radio range. (DHS did not respond to WW's questions about the type of surveillance conducted.)

"It's hard to say what they're doing, but we should all be pretty alarmed at how routine this type of surveillance is becoming in the wake of the George Floyd protests," says Brett Max Kaufman, a senior attorney at the American Civil Liberties Union's Center for Democracy.

Trump's "federal goon squad" has not left the federal courthouse

Court documents have said 114 from the Federal Protective Service, the U.S. Marshals
Service, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection and U.S. Immigration and Enforcement.

Nasty edge to "Trump's federal goons" in Portland-

Injure the peaceful protesters, or use so much tear gas on them, that they cannot run away.
Arrest them for disobeying orders to disperse. (The goons used so much tear gas, that it
flooded the jails. flooded people's homes.)

Message to the protesters- "It does no matter if you are rioters, or not. If you are protesting,
we do what we want to do, to you."

Slimeball, Ken Cuccinelli, acting deputy director of the U.S. Department of Homeland
Security, lied about Portland protesters, during the hearing on free speech and protests
held by the Senate JudiciarySubcommittee on the Constitution.

Aug 05, 2020

The city of Portland continues to impose a $500 fine every 15 minutes for the fence,
which was erected in the public right-of-way without a permit around the Mark O.
Hatfield United States Courthouse on Southwest Third Avenue.

As of noon Wednesday, the fine will hit $584,000.

Dylan Rivera, a spokesperson for the Portland Bureau of Transportation, said the bureau
was in close contact with the city attorney on the fence issue. The fine sparked some lega
observers to question whether the city could legally fine the federal government.

When asked that question, Tracy Reeve, the Portland city attorney, declined to comment.

Rivera said that while “it can be difficult to hold the federal government accountable,
it is important for PBOT to stand up for all Portlanders who have the right to use their
streets without federal interference.”

Weeke said despite federal officials being made aware of the fine, the city has received
no formal response to its July 23 cease and desist letter.

Portland police smash window, slash tires of woman’s Prius during protest

[bodysong]

I suppose, that it is part of the Trump Alternative Universe-
to exact a price from any random protester- for a cracked window,
a chip missing from a brick, a splinter of burned wood on at door's threshold,
dings and burn marks from fire works. Non-toxic, non- permanant paint from grafitti.

Broken noses, broken arms, broken hands, broken legs, broken feet, broken skulls.
One, or more, had a broken eye socket. Broken breath, from the excessive amounts
of tear gas and pepper spray. Poor side of town, the properties suffer from neglect,
just as the state neglects the neighborhoods, and asthma is a fact of life.Unlucky,
and Big Oil, Big Chemical, Big Pharma, is in the next street, and polluting lives
and health, blighting futures.

Broken bicycles, broken cars, broken motorcycles.

Trump's armed goons aimed and shot people between the eyes, with "non-lethal" weapons.

Trump is a property owner, of sorts- in debt up to his bald spots, to the banks,
so the banks, in reality, own them. But, still, his grandfather and father were
land deal grifters, and he tookup the family business. Started out as a slum lord.
Grifted money, with his father from the government, until they got caught telling lies.

The people out on the street, protesting the lynching of George Floyd in public,
are the people that Trump had contempt for, most of his life.

Protesters are shouting", A building can be repaired, a building can be replaced."

"Once a human being has died, there is no rebuilding, no replacing."

Trump is not listening and would not care. It is not if he respects other people's property.
Part of his bullying technique is ruin other people's lives through their property.

The 155, 000 people that died of coronavirus, are meaningless to him.

Broken hearts, broken minds, broken spirits, broken lives, broken health for the survivors.

One creature crushed George Floyd's life from his body, as if he were crushing a paper cup.

(bodysong comment- I think of it as armed robbery committed by the police- They stole
him from the arms of the community, from his family, friends, from his co-workers.
They stole the community's peace and contentment and hope. They stole from hearts
all over the USA.)

Fuck FOX TV- They steal from a dead man, in an effort to make the ratings of their
rotten shows crawl upwards. Fuck their ghoulish corporate sponsors, too.


August 4, 2020

Daniel Dale CNN-

The Portland courthouse: Trump claimed that the federal courthouse in Portland,
which has endured damage from some of the protesters in the city,
is a "$600 million building."

(The courthouse cost a reported $129 million to build in the 1990s; even with inflation,
that is roughly $200 million in today's dollars. Trump claimed last week that it was
a "billion-dollar building.")

State police pull troopers out of Portland protest coverage, return them to regular assignments

Oregon State Troopers are pulling out of Portland where they've been assisting local and federal police in trying to corral Black Lives Matter protesters. Apparently their two week agreement is up, and besides, according to spokesman Capt. Timothy R. Fox who's apparently making a snide commentary on how the new MultCo DA is refusing to prosecute non-violent protesters, “We’re in a county that’s not going to prosecute this criminal behavior.” HAHAHAHAAAAA! Okay. So long, snowflake!

Trump cannot have a permanent installation of his very own private federal police platoon

Trump may kill Americans passively, by doing nothing effective to stop coronavirus.
People may die of coronavirus because Trump interferes in state defenses against Covid-19
It is the crossing of an altogether different boundary, if Trump sends human murderers to
kill Americans in America.

Trump has figured out a way to kill off Black Lives Matter protest marches-
Encourage the local police officers to commit an unauthorized public execution in every
state, and motivate White Supremacists in paramilitary costumes to murder protesters.
This enablesTrump to kill off a BLM protest, because of the violence committed
by White Supremacists-

Unlawful, violent protest ? The protesters are not violent. The police, federal Trump goons,
and gun crazies, are violent. The para-military citizen militias are violent.

Does not matter to Trump if it is a "unlawful assembly," in fact.
Declaring it to be so, enables police to arrest protesters. (Violently.)
Gives Trump a chance to enter a headline, that he is sending military forces.

NPR covers the story of White Supremacists with weapons, at the site of a protest

A 17 year old was sent to execute protesters- shooting people- The teen is not
a member of the Kenosha, Wisconsin community.
He lived in Antioch, Illinois. He used an alias.

Kenosha is where the police officer shot Jacob Blake, Sunday, August 23
Police lied about Jacob Blake having a knife. Jacob was un-armed when he as shot
in the back. A young person is sent to commit a crime on Tuesday, because the
adults did not take responsibility.

Jacob Blake is in a world of hurt, but he did not die. Seven shots, or eight.

a man with blood running down the back of his neck and bystanders shouting
that he had been shot in the head.

A Washington Post video journalist, Whitney Leaming, said that after gunfire erupted
about a block away, the man with the rifle ran past her with a few protesters in pursuit.
He tripped and fell, then rolled into a sitting position, raised his gun and opened fire at
his pursuers, she said.

"He definitely was not breathing," said Badoni, 50. "His eyes were rolled back in his

Invasion of the Trumpies from out of state, and a murder happens

August 30, 2020

A fleet of pickup trucks waving Trump banners rolled through downtown, horns blaring,
with red-shirted young men leaning out of windows to yell racial slurs and deploy pepper
spray (bear spray!) on pedestrians, many of them leftist protesters, who blocked the trucks'
path.

Downtown was the final stop on a daylong car caravan to support the president.
It started in the early afternoon at Clackamas Town Center mall and drove into
Portland, mostly circling the city on interstate highways.

https://www.wweek.com/news/2020/08/...eath-amid-trump-caravan-in-downtown-portland/

The corpse of Heather Heyer, killed by Trumpies, and the barely cold body of
Jay Bishop, are collateral damage of Trump's promotion of racism.

Mal-ania wore her brown dress of military aggression, and she added a green-light dress.

Death is the result. As if thousands of dead bodies all over the USA, were not enough

Aug 29, 2020

Portland Police Bureau (PPB) say the unidentified victim died around 8:45 pm
from a gunshot wound to the chest.

The caravan, dubbed a "Trump cruise rally," met around 4 pm at the Clackamas Town
Center parking lot. In the Facebook page for the pro-Trump event, organizers encouraged
attendees to bring firearms with them, as long as they followed concealed carry laws.

After gathering at the shopping mall, several hundred vehicles—many waving large
American and Trump 2020 flags—then drove to downtown Portland, where they were
met by groups of counter-protesters. Portland police dressed in riot gear stood by as
caravan members drove through groups of people in the street. Other drivers jumped
out of their cars to confront counter-protesters on the street, some getting into fistfights.

One rally member turns to avoid counter-protesters but another drives right through them
hitting several people.

Right wing demonstrators seen carrying paintball guns

The agency came under intense scrutiny last weekend when a far-right activist
from Texas brandished a loaded gun as dueling demonstrations unfolded in
front of the Mark O. Hatfield Federal Courthouse.

The man who pulled the gun, identified as Alan Swinney, was spotted at a rally
decrying a Black Lives Matter posted in front of Gresham City Hall days later
and also at a flag-wave in The Dalles hours before Saturday’s deadly shooting.

Video taken from another angle that does not capture the shooting but does include
audio of the incident, shows a man wearing a white long-sleeve shirt rushing toward
Danielson once he’s on the ground and saying, “Jay, are you okay?”

The man in the white shirt then repeatedly tries to pull Danielson up
but he is unresponsive.

Bystanders, one of them wearing a black “BLM” hat approach the two telling the man
that Danielson needs help. He pushes them away, eventually relenting to a woman who
claims she’s a protest medic and saying, “Help, then.”

Police soon arrive and order bystanders and the man in the white shirt to move away
from Danielson. The bureau in a release said police medics declared Danielson dead
at the scene but did not name him.

Charlotteville, NC The Left and the Far Extremist Right battle over statues and monuments

(event involved the death of Heather Heyer, by a murderer using a car to crush protesters)

The Far Right extremists had a habit of cornering unarmed protesters,
and beating them- DeAndre Harris could not run away from them

In the 18 months since the August 2017 rally, Albemarle County and Charlottesville
prosecutors have secured convictions and harsh sentences for seven of the rally’s most
high-profile criminal defendants. Four of the seven include the men who pummeled and
kicked Harris in the Market Street parking garage.

DeAndre Harris suffered a spinal injury in addition to the head wound.

Video of the garage attack — and of Harris’s bloodied head — sped across the Internet,
ultimately helping online sleuths, led by journalist Shaun King, to identify the assailants.

"...seen on video whacking Harris on the head with a wooden stick — a “tire thumper.”
The injury gave Harris such a large laceration on his head that it required eight staples."

Charlottesville is in Virginia, not North Carolina.

Charlotte and Charlottesville, are not interchangeable.

Proposal reimagines George Rogers Clark statue park as future site
of Center for Indigenous Studies at U.Va.

The statue, a depiction of state violence against Native Americans, was found defaced
twice in the past week as it sustains growing criticism

August 21, 2020

The 99-year-old monument places Clark on horseback alongside three fellow armed
American soldiers, as they confront a group of three Native Americans.

A woman cowers away from Clark and covers an infant child, and another member
of the party crouches, shielding his face from Clark.

This is an image of genocidal violence, not of any honorable military victory, says rising
third-year College student Zac Russell, who is a Cherokee Nation citizen and social chair
of the Native American Students Union at the University.

“The statue depicts U.S. soldiers standing over comparatively unarmed Natives, seemingly
ambushed unprovoked and portrayed as the noble savage, with George Rogers Clark
horseback, leading them and ready to slaughter these Natives simply for the expansion
of the ‘superior’ white man’s territory,” Russell explained in a statement to The Cavalier
Daily.

Russell added that they fully support Lopez and the disposition committee’s initiative
to remove the monument, noting that replacing the statue with a space supporting the
University’s indigenous population would be “the best way to do that.” According to
the proposal, the space is envisioned as a place for education, meetings and cultural
gatherings, supportive services and administration, and other community needs.

“The statue’s presence is an unadulterated celebration of the genocide of Native people
and has no place at the University,” Russell added. “It should have never been placed
and removal is long overdue.”
