Portland City Commissioner apologizes for claiming police ‘saboteurs’ were infiltrating anti-racism protesters and setting fires as ‘justification for attacking community members’
UK Daily Mail ^ | July 24 2020 | LAUREN EDMONDS and VALERIE EDWARDS

Portland City Commissioner Jo Ann Hardesty apologized for claiming police are sending 'saboteurs' to infiltrate anti-racism demonstrations to start fires that have lit up the city on many of the 56 consecutive nights of protests.

Hardesty's apology came amid continued civil unrest in Oregon's largest city as protesters clash with both local police and federal agents, who've struggled to quell activists.

Just last night, federal agents hit Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler with tear gas after the elected official received an icy reception from protesters.

This is the beyotch who wants the Mayor to turn the police department over to her. Nothing like alienating the people you want control over.

No, that’s an “it” or “other” if anything. I think we’ve found the missing link.

O.K., I looked. I'd hate to see her angry face.

After seeing her picture, I think that is a matter of opinion. 😁

It should be pointed out...Portland operates with a city council that does not get elected by neighborhoods or districts. They hold an election....the mayor, auditor, and four members are voted upon by city-wide vote. The city charter mandates that your political party is NOT a factor, so when you run...you are running as a person-without-a-party.

I'll buy you a drink, or four, if you can prove that "she" is anatomically correct.

It’s going to take a lot more than 4 drinks, for me to build up enough courage, to look and see if it is male or female. 😁🤪😀🤑🤗 It’s not something I have a lot of enthusiasm to do. 👍

My son lives in Vegas, so I will be there. I hope to be there next May, so I can pin his 1st Lieutenant bars on.

That’s fantastic! My brother was career AF and served here with the T-birds. My Uncle was also career AF. I only did 1 hitch and the AF and I mutually agreed to part ways.

Never accept an apology from a leftist. Apologies are part of the information warfare campaign leftists unleash on everyone to gain complete control over us.

Leftists (i.e. democrats) are the enemy, folks.

Jo Ann Hardesty is just one more lying, RADICAL LEFTIST, DIMocRAT, loudmouth & hater. = It’s really NO more complicated than that.

IMO, ALL such hateful CREEPS should be tossed out of the building with the rest of the trash, post haste.

Yours, TMN78247
