BREAKING: All Federal Buildings in Portland Evacuated Amid Car Bomb Threat
pjmedia.com ^ | August 21, 2020 | TYLER O'NEIL

On Friday, federal authorities evacuated all federal buildings in Portland after reports of a car bomb threat. The FBI is investigating the threat.

“The FBI is aware of recent reporting regarding threats made against federal buildings in Portland,” the FBI’s Portland field office said in a statement. “We are investigating to determine the credibility of the threat, and we remain in touch with our law enforcement partners to share information.”

The Bankruptcy Court cited a “threat of violence in the area” as the reason for its shutdown, The Oregonian reported. A source with knowledge of the situation told the paper that federal authorities received a threat that a vehicle filled with explosives would hit a federal building. It remains unclear if the threat involved a specific building.

The source also told The Oregonian that the Standard Insurance and Standard Plaza buildings had been evacuated on Friday morning.

The threat came after the 84th night of violent riots in Portland. In the name of pursuing justice for George Floyd, rioters have fired explosives at the federal courthouse, set fire to the police union, attempted to burn down a police precinct with officers inside, and turned the entrance of the ICE building into a war zone.

On Thursday night, rioters attempted to break into the ICE building. When federal officers came out, rioters threw rocks and bottles at them, shined lasers to blind them, and launched commercial-grade fireworks at them. They also set dumpsters on fire. The riot continued into the morning.

“...The Democrat Party is telling America (in a none too subtle way) that if they lose in November, they will keep up the lockdowns and riots...”

They WILL lose because of it. WHEN they continue to pull this crap, at that point, they will do so at their own peril.

Well NSA trace the call to the ANTIFA terrorists and send in Delta Force or MARSOC or US Marshalls, but not the traitors over at the FBI.

Start, by shooting the leaders. 84 nights of destruction is beyond reason and must be dealt with now.
I don’t care about Portland, they deserve being the victims of this siege. It is the permissive stance of the local government that should be dealt with. Fire the city leaders and kill the criminals who participate in the lawlessness.

“Any Questions?”

It is time to have the National Guard shutdown the city 10 blocks out and barricade using razer wire to entrap the human scum.

“They are already threatening to move to the suburbs.”

They are apt to get shot if they do that.

I was not necessarily referring to Portland. I’m sure you are aware that these reprobates only act up in staunch Dem-controlled areas, right? They are evil, but thy are not that stupid...yet.

There is no obligation to have the Federal Courthouse in Portland. It can be in any town in the state. The SE corner of Oregon sounds good to me.

I wonder if some in Portland are beginning to think “I can’t afford to leave, I better vote for Trump. I hate him, but not as much as I love my safety.”

I beg to differ. I think it’s time to start f-ing around
with them a whole lot.

Turn it brutal, no holds barred.
