Wikipedia describes Gateway Pundit thus:

“Over time, The Gateway Pundit expanded from a one-person enterprise into a multi-employee operation that is supported primarily by advertising revenue.

The website is known for publishing falsehoods and spreading hoaxes.[15][16][6][17]

The Gateway Pundit is known as a source of viral falsehoods and hoaxes.[15][16][6] As a result of a number of lawsuits against Gateway Pundit over its false stories, it was reported in March 2018 that Jim Hoft had told his writers to be more careful, saying “I don’t want any more lawsuits so we have to be really careful with what we put up.”[20]

Following the 2016 mass shooting at the gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, Hoft came out as gay”.

I “discovered” it in the news. Commie Wheeler told them to stand down publically.

How so? democrat mayors are on record as telling police to ‘let the rioters blow off steam’ with no legal repercussions what-so-ever. Indeed, they got considerable adulation from the MSM.

Are these children (Dreamers) old enough to vote?
Portland did not violate the Constitution. Portland could not possibly do that. An individual (the Mayor?) made that decision. The mayor needs to suffer the consequences. Apparently, there are no consequences. Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake’s policy toward rioters: “while we tried to make sure that they (the rioters) were protected from the cars and the other things that were going on, we also gave those who wished to destroy space to do that as well.” She was rewarded by being made Secretary of the DNC.

"The American taxpayers should be suing them."

Either it is the federal taxpayer or the local taxpayer.

These are federal laws and it is the federal govt's responsibility to enforce them.

You are a cheapskate who doesn't want to pay more federal taxes and you want to push it off on local law enforcement paid for by the local Taxpayers.

Pay up and shut up! Hire a 100,000 more Ice agents and send them out to enforce the federal immigration laws.

Court after court after court have ruled that the police have no duty to protect.

But do they not have a duty to enforce all local and state laws?

Sessions recused himself from his job. He is practically invisible. Even Rod Rosenstein has difficulty finding him!

Rosenstein is the defacto AG except in official title only. Sessions is laying low and nearly out of site thus just being Rosensteins lap dog.

Ice isnt suing anybody. This is just more fake BS from that scam artist hoft at BSGateway Pundit, a click bait site.

Of course but if you had actually read the article the head of the labor union representing the ICE employees sent a letter of intent to the mayor saying that if he didn't uphold the law that protects all citizens that they would consider filing a lawsuit for equal protection under the 14th Amendment of the Constitution.

It helps to read the story.

employees at the building were helpless

I would imagine it was desk personnel who surrounded and frightened.

This is how it will go down when the Left wins an election or two.

They'll attack, they'll injure and destroy, and if you put up a fight in a place like Portland they will lock you up for as long as they please.

Liberal bias? Give me a break! Is that how you respond to any comments you disagree with? How about “ youre an anti trump deep state “ or you are just a left wing troll”.

You are obviously not very bright. I suggest you get out of your very small bubble.

My nephew is an ICE agent up there, trust me they didn’t need any help from the Portland PD.
He sent me a great picture of the ICE agents raising “OLD GLORY” after the agents cleared out the scum and sanitized the building.

To use the gist of your very own argument ‘is this the best you can come up with?’ Please, give us all a break! Wikipedia as a news source. Makes me laugh out loud.

Wikipedia just happens to say what other FReepers have been saying for some time. Gateway Pundit has always been thought of as a clickbait site, which explains their provocative headlines which are never supported by their stories. Their modus is to take stories written by other news outlets, rearrange the sentences, add a little more stuff then headline it as if their people actually reported it.

When their tactics become so obvious that even a left leaning site like wiki writes it up ( you will notice gateway pundit has never sued wiki for libel, because its all true). Even conservatives need to recognize fake news on the right. In the case of GP the objective is to MAKE MONEY, nothing more. Personally Inhate deception regardless of where it comes from.

They have the power to selectively enforce what ever they want. Even if it’s not actually the law.
