Both of them have spoken out and asked Trump to remove the federal agents, saying they're making the problem worse instead of helping.

It’s 50 straight days of protesting in a state that now has its highest number of cases.

I agree the federal troops probably do make it worse. But the local officials haven’t done much. They may not want to do much. Does it need to turn into a CHAZ 2 for the protests against a federal building to get shut down?

 

This is about the virus, which his klan has ignored since it arrived on these shores?
He is cracking down in order to protect the people of Oregon from the virus that is just going to go away on its own? He's acting out of concern for Oregon when he is unwilling to put forth a plan for any other state or the country as a whole? He's acting out of concern for Oregon while refusing to put together a plan for reopening schools anywhere?
Funny how your boy only calls in his posse to arrest libruhls.
He's so concerned about public health and safety that he held a klan rally in Tulsa that infected several Secret Service agents and probably dozens of attendees, a total that would have been much higher if his ambitions of filling an indoor arena to its max had been realized.

 

Portland has spent $8 million on the protests already. That isn’texactly money the city has lying around.

The federal troops make it worse. We agree there.

 

Oregon's most dramatic rise in COVID cases comes from Eastern Oregon, which is heavily red. The most populous counties in the western Willamette Valley are blue, wear masks, and have a very low incidence of COVID cases and deaths.

Trump will lose Oregon by at least 400,000 votes. So it's a safe place for him to send in the secret police, because he had absolutely no chance of winning our eight electoral votes.

And of course we hear no cries of "Federal overreach" from the right-wing screech machine.

 

Excellent point.
Oregon's leading county in July cases per 100,000: Malheur, home to the gun-waving Bundy klan rally a few years back, with 1,168.
They had 108 total cases through June 30. They've had 357 in half of a month.
But please let's have freedumb to leave faces uncovered and infect others.
Counties that voted for Trump in 2016 have delivered 137 cases in July per 100,000 residents. Among the goddamned libruhls, the figure is 98 cases per 100K.
Multonomah County, home to Portland, is at 123 cases per 100K this month.

 

I put this on the wrong thread, maybe.

 

Not the onion.

 

“Well, the secret police are just in a Portland because the mayor did nothing!”

 

Cooch must have good intel that the Portlandia statue is about to slip a nip.
