Journalist beaten at Portland riots: his lawyer has tough message to Antifa

Harmeet K. Dhillon, the attorney representing journalist Andy Ngo [pronounced 'No'], who was attacked and beaten Saturday afternoon by members of Antifa at a Portland demonstration (that predictably turned into a violent riot) warned the far-leftist criminals that she plans to sue them "into oblivion." That, of course, is even worse than simply taking them to the cleaners.

“Goodnight everyone except Antifa criminals who I plan to sue into oblivion and then sow salt into their yoga studios and avocado toast stands until nothing grows there, not even the glimmer of a violent criminal conspiracy aided by the effete impotence of a cowed city government,” Dhillon wrote.

Ngo, a Quillette editor, was viciously assaulted while he was covering Antifa protesters. In a video posted online, he was kicked, punched, and had milkshakes laced with quick-drying cement thrown on him by the cowardly masked punks.

Soon after the attack, Dhillon informed the public that Ngo “is being admitted to the hospital overnight as a result of a brain bleed.”

“You sick ‘journalists’ and other hacks gloating about this should be ashamed,” she added. “As for the rest, please pray for [Andy Ngo] who we need back in health — brave man!”

Later that night, the lawyer said that he “has been cleared to leave the hospital.”

“He’ll have more to say in coming days about what happened to him & others yesterday in Portland,” Dhillon promised. “He is very thankful for the overwhelming support from decent people, especially [Michelle Malkin] & donors.”

Malkin, a conservative commentator and investigative journalist, set up a GoFundMe account for Ngo in the wake of the attack; as of Monday morning, over $135,000 has been raised.

Dhillon has been at the forefront in high-profile cases concerning political bias and has appeared on Fox News numerous times.

In addition to the potential lawsuit by Dhillon, at least three Antifa fascists were arrested during the violent demonstrations, but it isn't known if those arrests were in connection to Ngo's assault.

Most mainstream media outlets haven't reported in any real detail about the attack on Andy Ngo, but people are slowly becoming cognizant of the violence Antifa and others on the left have been perpetuating against our Constitutional rights for years.
