Excerpt:
A wave of retribution is flowing toward Portland, Oregon, from the White House after the arrest of conservative journalist Nick Sortor there on Thursday night.
Sortor’s arrest on a misdemeanor charge inflamed an already tense situation, leading Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon to tell the Portland police that they are under investigation.
On Friday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt noted that the incident, coupled with antifa protests against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents that led President Donald Trump to authorize the use of troops to protect ICE, and Trump’s declaration of antifa as a domestic terrorist organization, was the last straw.
In a video posted to X, she noted that Sortor “was ambushed by antifa and was defending himself from these assaults.”
