Dozens of federal law enforcement officers in Portland have had their personal information posted online by individuals who have also encouraged protesters to go to those officers’ homes, officials said Tuesday.
Federal Protective Service (FPS) Deputy Director of Operations Richard Cline said at a press conference that approximately 38 law enforcement officers had been doxed as he explained why officers had had name badges removed.
"We are going to convert their name [tags] to their badge number as about 38 of our officers that are out there have been doxed and their personal infomation has been put online," he said.
The Department of Homeland Security has previously said that “violent anarchists” in the area have on multiple occasions released personal information to the public of those officers in Portland, but Cline gave an indication of how widespread the practice is.
Acting CBP Commissioner Mark Morgan said the actions were putting the families of law enforcement in danger, and names were being replaced by personal identifiers so agents could be identified internally.
“That’s another thing that’s absolutely disgusting,” he said. “So they're not only jeopardizing the lives of the agents, they're also jeopardizing the lives of their families as they [are] putting out their home information and they're suggesting that individuals go to their homes.
It said that police in Kentucky, as well as Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Boston and New York City, had been doxed.

“Peaceful Protesters”
Seriously, the left plays hardball. The right just sits there and takes it. Soon, Americans not on the left will have zero rights.
I don’t condone death squads in other countries but I now understand why they occur.
You know the cat is already out of the bag, but...
I really think personal information shouldn’t be available online.
It bothered me to no end after Clinton took office when the classified information area of the government became very relaxed. With it came a slew of workers in the defense contractor industry who were far too liberal to be working on the country's defense program.
Yup, why I like the idea of a Pinochet.
SPJNK.
How are these “protesters” able to get info on anonymous federal agents?
Getting personal information about someone is very easy. I used to work in the debt collection industry and I learned a few tricks.
In the course o a five-minute phone call with someone, I can tell you what color of the car that they drive and who lives at their along with them. I can probably even get the name of their cat.
good question
It could be an inside source at the FBI
Free helicopter rides for Antifa and Bigoted Lynch Mobs...
You still need their name to get any information.
Agents should wear masks...
You still need their name to get any information.
Easy to get as well. Sometimes it is just as easy to go to a website or make a phone call, then play dumb as to pronounce their name incorrectly.
It depends on the effort you put into it. Since George Soros is paying the bill, I imagine these guys are super relaxed to just sit there and get car tags.
Maybe I’m misunderstood, but weren’t these Antifa creeps doxxing the federal agents just from seeing them in person in Portland when they showed up to take people in unmarked vehicles? They went so far to say these agents had no identifying marks. How do they even get their name? They don’t know them from Adam. It would be like doxxing the secret service, no difference.
Reading the comments at the twitter link, people are beyond sick of this crap.
There’s far more support for our side than antifa and BLM.
