“All members of the crowd control team of Portland police have resigned from their positions in the unit after an officer was indicted on an assault charge stemming from alleged illegal use of force during a protest last year.”

“I’ve extended the state of emergency through the weekend. Our job is to unmask them, arrest them, and prosecute them.”

“Many Portland, Oregon Police officers and supervisors left the state’s largest police force over the last year by taking early retirement or by quitting, according to The Oregonian.”

We will believe it when we see it.

Please see the first comment for more of the story.

“New York City was among three cities labeled “anarchist jurisdictions” by the Justice Department on Sunday and targeted to lose federal money for failing to control protesters and defunding cops, The Post has learned.”

"WASHINGTON — President Trump is ordering the federal government to begin the process of defunding New York City and three other cities where officials allowed “lawless” protests and cut police budgets amid rising violent crime, The Post can exclusively reveal."

“In a letter to Mayor Ted Wheeler and the Portland City Council, the Downtown Development Group said that the exodus of companies wasn't related to the Black Lives Matter movement - "but does have most everything to do with the lawlessness you are endorsing downtown." "The number is like nothing I have seen in 42 years of doing business in downtown," wrote DDG co-founder Greg Goodman.”

Note that the picture is of Minneapolis.  "Gabe Johnson, a 48-year-old black man who served in the Marines, now says that Portland police should use any means necessary, including force, to sweep the riots off the streets and end the nightly violence."
