CLACKAMAS, Ore. The sheriffs of Clackamas and Washington County say they will not send staff to help with protests in Portland after Oregon Governor Kate Brown unveiled a plan to address the violence at protests....

Trump is obviously stroking violence in Portland
Let Portland burn. Let it serve as a warning.
lol - I did a doubletake too. But he’s real:

So awesome to see.

For a second there, I thought it said “Hold Officers accountable”
Whew...
DA doesn’t expect cops to assemble on her lawn, but BLM/antifa is expected to show up. It is sad that she capitulates.
Mmmm....K
so I guess with the shooting in Los Angeles of a black man I’m watching riot porn all week again....
What evidence is there of soros involvement?
No..it’d have to be Lincoln County for that.
Now if it was Pat Brady? I think his first name was Pat..
