Federal agents to begin leaving Portland’s downtown: DHS, Oregon governor (beginning Thursday)
Fox News ^ | Danielle Wallace

Posted on 07/29/2020 11:46:43 AM PDT by sickoflibs

The federal agents who have clashed with protesters in Portland will begin a “phased withdrawal” from the city's downtown area starting Thursday, Oregon's Democratic Gov. Kate Brown announced.

Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolf said in a statement that he and Brown have been in contact over the past 24 hours and reached a joint plan to end "the violent activity in Portland directed at federal properties and law enforcement officers.”

“That plan includes the robust presence of Oregon State Police in downtown Portland,” Wolf said. “State and local law enforcement will begin securing properties and streets, especially those surrounding federal properties, that have been under nightly attack for the past two months. Oregon State Police will coordinate with Federal Protective Service (FPS) officers to ensure all federal facilities remained protected and secure."

We can always use their federal funding to fix the buildings.

The commies are LYING!

They just want to make a big deal about the Feds COMING BACK.

...

They will not protect Federal Property. Won’t happen.

Did they Feds empty all the records out of the court house in the few weeks? Cause it’s going to be burned to the ground.

Why haven’t any of the federal judges who work there ordered the local cops to get with the program and protect their building???

So instead of sitting on the fence to not get socially mugged by the Left, the governor is going to bring in the state police.

That was my first thought also ... during quiet times did the feds extract computers, file cabinets, etc out to a secure location?

I am sure that attacking federal people is just a secondary goal best left to the useful idiots. The smart guys really want to get their hands on the private info inside.

“the governor is going to bring in the state police”

Only for show in the short, intervening period before federal officers are forced to return.

No real action will be taken to protect federal property, or civil rights in Portland.

It’s a ruse.

who support this activity in person or financially.

Just left Zerohedge.com and they have an article up that says the Feds are not leaving till the city is secured.

So who is telling us the truth and who is lying? My bet is on Fox News is the one who is lying.

Fox News is no better than MSNBC and the other libtard media. They have gone left just like The Drudge Report and no should be watching them.

RE:”Trump just said they are not leaving until there is peace.”

This is one to watch closely
I am not going to speculate what will happen

Brown: “Starting tomorrow, all Customs and Border Protection & ICE officers will leave downtown Portland,” the governor tweeted.”

I believe that is not ALL fed police

Maybe she wants to see if her announcement changes the anarchists behavior,

If you read the article it just says what others said.

It says the governor Brown tweeted : “Starting tomorrow, all Customs and Border Protection & ICE officers will leave downtown Portland,”

What is the FNC lie?

A federal judge (from within that building) ruled against the Oregon state attorney general’s lawsuit to remove the federal officers. Federal judges can’t order local cops.

RE:”Surrender

Is that the winning formula for Trump's election?

Will the MSM start praising him?
