We reviewed federal prosecutions, local arrests, internal protest summaries by the Portland Police Bureau and more than 700 video clips posted to social media before Trump said he wanted to send the National Guard to the city.
Here’s what we found.

Is there anyone out there that's a #Lawyer (enbarred in the US) interested in organizing a class action against the city of #Portland #Oregon for violating the First #Amendment against #homeless people or do we not have the same US #Constition as everyone else?
This is clearly a protest but has been stolen once already and will be again Monday.
Welcome to the sanctuary city of #PDX where everyone else has rights unless you don't have a home because its #Illegal2BHomless in #AmeriKKKa
I want to sue for $100M and give as much as possible to 100 homeless people... problem solved.

If you're wondering why it seems like the #military branches have been completely silent in the #news while #trump carries out the summary execution of citizens of #Venezuela, it's because one of the first things that #hegseth did when he started was to fire any JAG officer who wasn't seen as 100% loyal to the #maga agenda. He even publicly stated that the firings were to remove anyone who might put up "roadblocks to orders that are given by a commander in chief."
Like many other posts, JAG positions have historically been apolitical. They fill the role of setting each service's legal priorities and interpreting military law for leaders. They are supposed to oversee everything from criminal cases involving the rank and file to making sure commanders are aware of international law in combat, which is currently being violated by the killings in Venezuela.
The firings of senior JAG officers also cleared the way for the use of troops in #Oregon, #Illinois, and #California without the normal legal oversight required to engage troops in such a way.
So in short, these earlier actions were scaffolding for everything else. No one did anything that suddenly brought the attention of the Eye of Sauron onto them. These violations of due process were intentional and premeditated.
Don't operate under the assumption that you doing something or not doing something is going to magically keep you safe, that's not how #fascism works. Use your rights to stand up and push back, or they won't stay rights for much longer.

Those emails were submitted to the court as a trial exhibit.
“At 11:35 PDT today, a force of nine MPs arrived at the ICE facility in downtown Portland, Oregon where they assumed their first support mission,” wrote Col. Jeff Merenkov at 3:28 p.m. on Oct. 4.
The email included a schedule that showed the troops’ “shift conclusion” was set for midnight.

Jean Lin, special counsel for the #DOJ, confirmed the deployment to the US District Court Judge Karin Immergut on Wednesday but provided few specifics — minutes before the trial began.
Immergut issued a restraining order at 3:40PM on Oct 4, barring #Trump from federalizing the #Oregon #NationalGuard & blocking their deployment. Later, on Oct 5, she issued another order temporarily blocking Guard members from anywhere in the country from deploying to Oregon.
#NationalGuard troops briefly deployed to #Portland despite judge’s order, federal trial reveals
The revelation came to light Wednesday in federal court in Portland, where US District Court Judge Karin Immergut will decide if #Trump acted lawfully or violated the #StatesRights by trying to deploy the National Guard.

A federal trial in #Portland about Trump’s authority to deploy the #NationalGuard to the city got off with a stunning revelation: Troops briefly deployed to a federal #immigration building in South Portland this month, appearing to defy a #CourtOrder issued hours earlier blocking their deployment.
Emails summarizing the federal response say 9 members of the #Oregon Guard were sent to the #ICE facility in Portland & concluded their shift in the early hours of Oct. 5.
