Arrests of some protesters and rioters made by federal authorities in Portland, Oregon, including one arrest caught in a video that's gone viral, are the work of a new federal task force, according to a published report.
The task force has its roots in a June 26 executive order from President Donald Trump titled, Protecting American Monuments, Memorials, and Statues and Combating Recent Criminal Activity," a July 1 Department of Homeland Security news release said.
In response to the executive order, Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolf announced the DHS had established the Protecting American Communities Task Force.
DHS is answering the Presidents call to use our law enforcement personnel across the country to protect our historic landmarks, Wolf said in a statement. We wont stand idly by while violent anarchists and rioters seek not only to vandalize and destroy the symbols of our nation, but to disrupt law and order and sow chaos in our communities.
The release said the PACT will "conduct ongoing assessments of potential civil unrest or destruction and allocate resources to protect people and property."

According to a “published report”? Whatever...
Cool.
That’ll make Pelosi even nuttier.
Hopefully they are squeezing the dupes for information on those higher up the chain.
I think a great MAGA name for the capitol’s football team could be the
“WASHINGTON MONUMENTS”.....
... with exploding lib heads for decades to follow.
Guessing they observe suspect’s in the act via CC tv then snatch them at a later time, away from the original crime?
Democrats saddened
I saw the video and the scrawny little turd totally crapped his pants. Now he can do a few years in a prison and see how the Aryan brotherhood , crips, bloods, MS-13 deal with urchins like him
Article quotes Wolf, but maybe they quoted his words from an earlier date, I have not heard that Wolf commented today.
I think he was released after a couple of hours.

Great,these pukes think it was all a game and they were in charge.
They are in for a big surprise,especially when some are never heard from again.
This is not a game.
Since they are commies how about we send them to a pro liberty version of a reeducation camp after they are jailed? Pro American movies playing on a TV they can’t turn off or change channels. Never ending conservative talk radio played into their cells. Basically not stop patriotic programming pumped into their cells for the full 10 years they are there!
Damn
show them history videos from the world wars, men charging the beaches old videos of the yankees and confederates having a meet years later and all getting along since they are ignorant to history. Educate them how slavery was done by blacks to blacks to sell to whites and also the black slave owners in this country
A case of mass-waterboarding.
Nice thought, but the National Lawyers Guild gets them out as fast as the come in. Case in point, a guy lay in wait then smacked a fed officer on the head with a 4.5 mini-sledgehammer and arrested but was out in hours “pending further court action”.
