The US military is protecting the Portland federal courthouse.....

Not sure that is the military, could be police in cameo riot gear or US Marshals (it's a federal building).

Would be huge if it was actually the military but looking for other reports of this in the news the only mention of military in articles all go back to the Andy Ngo tweet.

I am not sure if it is military. And I don’t know for sure, but I think POTUS could have military help with security for FEDERAL property without invoking riot act or violating posse comitatus. So maybe military-maybe not?

I am still wondering what happened to the Army group set up by Bush in 2007 specifically for serving on the soil of Continental USA. Wonder if they still exist or have been disbanded or reassigned.
