An Antifa-affiliated website is on local and federal law enforcement’s radar after years of promoting anarchistic crimes and doxxing.
The “Rose City Counter-Info” blog, focused mainly on Portland, Oregon, hosts numerous posts purporting to show immigration agents’ home addresses, advocating for attacks on law enforcement infrastructure and taking credit for crimes, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation analysis. The Portland Police Bureau (PPB) told the DCNF that it is “aware” of the site and similar ones, and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) twice promised consequences for the doxxing in recent months.
Rose City Counter-Info promotes activism and ideological materials from Rose City Antifa, a violent group in Portland with its own website, though the blog claims no formal association. Rose City Counter-Info and Rose City Antifa did not respond to multiple requests for comment from the DCNF.
The blog shows how anonymous leftists use the internet to publicly coordinate anti-government actions — with an increasingly radical flair.
‘THE KIDNAPPERS HAVE NAMES AND ADDRESSES’
“We will prosecute those who dox ICE law enforcement officers to the fullest extent of the law,” DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin told the DCNF in June in response to a Rose City Counter-Info post doxxing three alleged ICE agents in Portland and Washington State.
Flyers copying the webpages were distributed around the Portland area, and an agent’s home was then littered with trash and written threats targeting the agent by name, the DHS said in July. One flyer on a telephone pole nearby said to use an “antifa” email address to send information on any other officers.
“NO PEACE FOR ICE AGENTS!” one doxxing post said.
McLaughlin repeated the prosecution threat over Rose City Counter-Info’s January post targeting a supposed Portland-based agent, the DCNF previously reported. “THE KIDNAPPERS HAVE NAMES AND ADDRESSES,” the post reads. “LET’S TAKE THE FIGHT TO THEM. BRING YOUR NOISE. BRING YOUR ANGER.”
Counter-protesters later arrived in the agent’s neighborhood to confront a band of leftists until they walked away, according to footage from one of the ICE supporters.
Since Rose City Counter-Info’s calls to action are not explicitly criminal, prosecutors would likely have no basis for charges based on the doxxing content alone, attorney Aaron Terr told the DCNF after reviewing several posts.
“They do not meet the legal standard for incitement, which applies only to speech intended to and likely to provoke imminent unlawful action,” said Terr, the director of public advocacy at the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE). “The phrase ‘no peace for ICE agents’ is ambiguous and could simply refer to protest activity. Case in point: the [January] post explicitly calls for a ‘protest and block party’ near an agent’s home.”
“As a general rule, the First Amendment protects publication of lawfully obtained information, especially when it’s already publicly available,” Terr said.
The fact that protesters could commit crimes at a doxxed agent’s home does not necessarily make such posts unlawful, Terr told the DCNF.
“None of this is to say that posting someone’s name and home address is always responsible, valuable, or beyond criticism,” Terr said. “But there are circumstances in which such speech may be widely regarded as important, particularly when it concerns government officials.”
The Trump administration sees the issue differently and has advertised a DHS hotline to report doxxing. In California, federal prosecutors also charged three women via a grand jury indictment in September for allegedly following an ICE agent home, filming the agent and posting their home address on Instagram.
“Doxxing our ICE personnel puts their lives and the lives of their families in serious danger,” an ICE spokesperson told the DCNF in response to Rose City Counter-Info’s posts. “The malicious rhetoric of violent agitators fuels the spread of chaos in our streets and contributes to the more than 8,000% increase in death threats and 1300% increase in assaults against ICE officers.”
The Rise Of ‘Communiques’
Other Rose City Counter-Info content follows a similar playbook as other radical leftist sites, using public, anonymous “communiques” to boast about criminal acts after-the-fact and call for further illegal action.
The strategy is not foolproof — California arsonist Casey Goonan was convicted in a terrorism case after the FBI linked him to a 2024 communique on “Abolition Media” taking credit for one of his firebombings. Another such site, “It’s Going Down,” announced in October that it was shutting down as “conditions have grown more dire” under Trump.
Rose City Counter-Info and other pro-crime sites host content with help from the Italy-based Autistici Inventati Collective, which provides web services to help leftists hide data from law enforcement, the DCNF previously reported. Rose City Counter-Info says it encrypts every submission it receives and promises to “never cooperate with law enforcement in any capacity.”
“Do not share anything that could directly or indirectly incriminate anyone,” reads its webpage on submitting content.
The site’s communiques feature several supposed perpetrators or supporters bragging about dozens of Portland-area property crimes since 2021, including arson and vandalism. One post even took credit for torching 15 PPB vehicles in May 2024 “for the Palestinian martyrs,” and police have since announced no arrests despite an investigation. The author encouraged anti-Israel protesters to college campuses to resist and fight police, declaring, “It is time to be violent.”
Federal officials have not threatened charges over Rose City Counter-Info’s content beyond the doxxing posts. However, the website called on Portlanders to coordinate on a specific October day to shine lasers at federal aircraft, prompting federal agencies to warn that doing so would be a crime. No reports emerged that such an attack occurred.
“The only limit power knows is our refusal to submit,” the post said.

It’s time for the MAGAs to start doxxing the Aunt Teefus Dixx. We definitely need to start paying them visits at their parents’ basement.
“Rose City Counter-Info promotes activism and ideological materials from Rose City Antifa, a violent group in Portland”
Portland city government IS antifa. Antifa runs the city. The foot soldiers out burning are just the drug addled misfits. The city bureaucracy is infested with antifa and they are the ones pulling the strings. They have been in that city since the Soviet Union fell. Multnomah County Jail stopped publishing mugshots because too many antifa operatives were exposed. It was the same group of people every time there was a riot and every time the DA dismissed charges or gave them basically zero punishments for their crimes. The ONLY guy I can think of that actually got in any trouble during the frequent riots was the stupid COSPLAY kid who threw an explosive at the federal courthouse, and that’s because it was the ATF who caught him. Other than that, antifa is worse than the mafia. At least the mafia wanted the businesses to run so they could squeeze out their protection money. Antifa just wants to burn stuff and keep the commies in charge.
Let me ask two questions:
1. What is our typical response when, say, someone with knowledge about troop positions or other details relays that information to an international terrorist organization (i.e., ISIS back when, others today)? What do we do with those people?
2. Why isn’t that being done with ANTIFA today, especially this chapter of it, as it’s been formally designated as an FTO?
Doesn’t anyone at DOJ or DHS know how to hack and destroy a website?
It’s okay the DoJ caught a snowboarding drug dealer in Mexico. They called it a lid. All 14k FBI special agents got the day off.
Antifa another branch of the Marxist democrat party.
The party is in panic mode they can’t hide all their screw ups and insane ideas they pimp.
Terrorism
It’s time to cut off the head of the snake (metaphorically speaking), and seize the assets of the lefty billionaire sugar daddies and mommies.
Obviously.
Do you want death squads? Because this is how you get death squads. KTF
