Guess who's the suspect for the murder in Portland ICE facility shooting

Believe it or not, the suspect arrested in connection with the fatal shooting outside of the Portland U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility earlier this week is a Somali immigrant, according to online records.

Mahmoud Said Ali, a 42-year-old Muslim, was taken into custody on Saturday morning and booked into the Multnomah County Jail. The charges are second-degree murder, a felony, and unlawful use of a weapon, according to jail records.Portland Police said in a press release that detectives learned of Ali's presence in the 13100 block of Northeast Glisan Street on Friday evening. 

Investigators requested assistance from the bureau's Special Emergency Reaction Team (SERT) and the crisis negotiation team. Ali was arrested at about 3:30 am on Saturday, police said.Authorities identified the victim as 42-year-old Anwar A. Osman, who sustained multiple gunshot wounds and died at the scene. The pair reportedly knew each other, according to police, but they weren't very good friends at the time of the shooting.

The killing occurred on Tuesday at approximately 4:10 am. PPB said in a press release: "A sergeant assigned to the Portland Police Bureau's Central Precinct was on routine patrol in the South Waterfront when he spotted a vehicle that had crashed into a building in the 4000 block of South Macadam Avenue. 

Simultaneously, community members were calling 911 to report shots fired in the area."

"The sergeant and responding officers approached the vehicle and found the adult male driver unconscious and suffering from gunshot wounds. Officers pulled the individual out of the vehicle and performed lifesaving measures. Unfortunately, the adult male was pronounced deceased at the scene," said PPB.

Authorities said the shooting appears to have occurred at the traffic light at South Bancroft Street and South Macadam Avenue, which is located near the front of the ICE facility at the top of a hill. The victim's vehicle rolled down the hill and crashed into a building. Ali fled the scene, according to police.Ali lists his hometown Mogadishu, Somalia, on his Facebook account. Police said Portland is his primary residence.

Leftist mob attempted to crash Kash Patel's funeral trip

A mob of leftist protesters decided to harass FBI Director Kash Patel while he was reportedly in Portland, Oregon, attending a friend’s funeral this weekend because apparently nothing screams “saving democracy” like stalking federal officials outside a hotel.

According to Fox News, agitators swarmed the downtown area Saturday night after convincing themselves Patel was staying at the Sentinel Hotel. Social media footage showed protesters gathering outside the building, shouting rude slogans and waving professional signs in yet another example of the unhinged activism that has become routine during President Donald Trump’s second term.

The demonstrators claimed they were protesting the alleged “weaponization” of the FBI under Trump and Patel’s handling of documents related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, according to FOX 12 Oregon. Evidently, the Left now thinks the proper response to political disagreement is tracking government aircraft and mobbing hotels.

It is still unclear where Patel actually stayed.

Police maintained a presence at the scene while unemployed and possibly paid protesters crowded outside the hotel entrance. Thankfully, unlike other recent left-wing demonstrations, the situation did not appear to devolve into leftist violence.

Fox News reported that activists used public flight-tracking data to monitor the Justice Department aircraft Patel reportedly uses. From there, they watched security activity downtown to determine which hotel he was “likely” staying at. Totally normal behavior that isn't well-appreciated by patrons of the hotel.

One protester admitted to Fox 12, “It wasn’t 100% confirmed but very likely he was at the Sentinel.” The same individual claimed the group gathered there “to protest the weaponization of Trump’s and Patel’s FBI to suppress our freedom of speech and freedom of press.”

Sure, surrounding a hotel and intimidating people attending a funeral definitely advances free speech.

Another protester who never personally met the FBI Director, or actually knew anything about him, simply called him “a creep,” because that is what he was told to think.

Others held professionally produced signs reading, “Kash Patel protects pedophiles” and “We don’t want you in our city, oink oink piggy piggy.”

Classy stuff from the self-proclaimed defenders of civility.

And this is becoming a trend. In January, leftist demonstrators in Minneapolis targeted both the Depot Renaissance Hotel and the Hilton Canopy Hotel because they believed ICE agents were staying there, according to Reuters. That protest escalated further, with rioters damaging property while attempting to force their way inside before police shut things down.

Remember when Democrats and the media spent years lecturing everyone about “political violence,” “threats to democracy,” and “dangerous rhetoric”? Funny how those concerns disappear when the mob is aimed at Trump officials.

The Dem Narrative Is Falling Apart as DHS Exposes the Identities in CBP Shooting in Portland

The Dem narrative is falling apart like an Ikea bookcase yet again as the DHS exposes the real identities behind the so-called "married couple" in the CBP shooting incident in Portland.

No surprise, the two injured parties turn out to be suspected affiliates of the notorious Tren de Aragua gang. 

Fox News reported on how Portland leaders demand ICE shut down operations in the city following the shooting of two migrants linked to Tren de Aragua, [TdA] is a transnational criminal organization originating from Venezuela.

As fresh protests flare up and Democrats voice their predictable outrage over yet another shooting involving a federal immigration agent in Portland, the Department of Homeland Security is cutting through the noise to lay out the facts on the two individuals involved and their suspected gang ties.

In a Friday post on X, DHS identified the pair as Luis David Nico Moncada and Yorlenys Betzabeth Zambrano-Contreras, describing them as Venezuelan criminal illegal aliens and suspected members of the foreign terrorist organization Tren de Aragua. According to the agency, the two attempted to run over a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent and others with their vehicle, prompting the agent to open fire in self-defense.

The incident unfolded around 2:19 p.m. local time when Border Patrol agents stopped the vehicle and identified themselves as law enforcement, DHS explained.

"Yesterday, two suspected Tren de Aragua gang associates, let loose on American streets by Joe Biden, weaponized their vehicle against Border Patrol in Portland," DHS wrote, adding that "the agent took immediate action to defend himself and others, shooting them."

Sounds familiar, doesn't it?

Both suspects fled the scene but were later located by Portland Police, who provided first aid before transporting them to a hospital.

DHS noted that Moncada, the driver, entered the U.S. illegally in 2022 and was released into the country under the Biden administration. Beyond his suspected Tren de Aragua ties, he had prior arrests for driving under the influence and unauthorized use of a vehicle, and he faces a final order of removal.

Zambrano-Contreras, the passenger, entered illegally in the El Paso area in 2023 and was likewise released by the Biden administration. DHS stated she "played an active role in a Tren de Aragua prostitution ring" and had been involved in a previous shooting in Portland.

Pushing back hard against media portrayals, DHS labeled reports of the pair as an innocent "married couple" as "REVOLTING LIES," clarifying in another X post that "the two criminal illegal aliens who attacked Border Patrol in Portland are a gang member and his prostitute NOT an innocent ‘married couple.’"

Democrats, predictably mindless and reactionary, rushed to condemn federal law enforcement almost immediately after Thursday's shooting.

Portland Mayor Keith Wilson called for ICE to "halt all operations" in the city pending a full independent investigation. But Wilson has no authority to halt federal law enforcement operations and is whistling in the wind.

"We know what the federal government says happened here," Wilson said during a news conference Thursday. "There was a time when we could take them at their word. That time has long passed."

He went further, insisting that ICE agents and DHS leadership "must fully be investigated and held responsible for the violence inflicted on the American people in Minnesota, in Portland, and in all the communities across America."

Oregon Gov, Tina Kotek (D) weighed in, attributing the incident to the "reckless agenda of the Trump administration."

"While the details of the incident remain limited, one thing is very clear: when a president endorses tearing families apart and attempts to govern through fear and hate rather than shared values, you foster an environment of lawlessness and recklessness," she said.

Kotek highlighted concerns from Oregon's attorney general and others about excessive force by federal agents in Portland, arguing that "today's incident only heightens the need for transparency and accountability."

Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) took to X to blame the Trump administration for 'inflaming violence.'

"I'm monitoring the first awful reports of two people shot in Portland by federal law enforcement," Wyden wrote before knowing who these thugs are. "I'll keep you updated, but Trump's deployment of federal agents in my hometown is clearly inflaming violence, and must end."

This latest episode follows the fatal shooting of anti-ICE protester Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis under similar circumstances. The Trump administration maintains that Good, while obstructing immigration enforcement, attempted to run over an ICE agent, who fired in self-defense, leading to her death. And Good's wife, when the shooting occurred shouted that it was her fault.

Both incidents have sparked widespread anti-ICE protests nationwide and drawn sharp rebukes from prominent Democrats, even as DHS continues to highlight the dangerous criminal elements released under previous policies now facing consequences.

'Game Changer': DHS Drops the Mask on Portland's Costume-Clad Chaos Crew

If there's one thing the left's street theater has taught us, it's that nothing says "mostly peaceful" quite like a gaggle of grown adults playing dress-up to dodge the long arm of the law. You know the drill: bandanas yanked up like wannabe outlaws, ski masks straight out of a bad '80s heist flick, or those novelty character masks that leave just enough eyeball real estate to glare at the cameras. 

Lately in Portland, where the nightly "protests" have morphed into a full-blown cosplay convention outside the ICE facility, these merry pranksters have upped the ante. Full-blown costumes now, folks, the kind that wouldn't look out of place at a Comic-Con for malcontents. It's a page ripped right from the "No Kings" playbook back in mid-October, where the goal is straight-up deception of the feds trying to do their jobs.

A couple of snapshots from the scene say they've got more layers than an onion.

But here's where the plot twists: Those new rules slated to kick in come January just got fast-tracked. DHS hit the fast-forward button, and they're live now. No more hiding behind the Halloween haul if you're breaking the law. Straight from the DHS site, do yourself a favor and hit the "prohibited conduct" section for the unvarnished truth:

All persons are prohibited from engaging in the following conduct, on federal property or in areas outside federal property, that affects, threatens, or endangers federal property or persons on the federal property:

(a) Disorderly conduct, which includes, but is not limited to, assaulting, fighting, harassing, intimidating, threatening or other violent behavior, lewd acts, or the inappropriate disposal of feces, urine, and other bodily fluids.

(b) Wearing a mask, hood, disguise, or device that conceals the identity of the wearer when attempting to avoid detection or identification while violating any federal, state, or local law, ordinance, or regulation.

(c) Creating a loud or unusual noise, noxious odor, or other nuisance. Katie Daviscourt, the Post Millennial's investigative reporter who held her own at President Trump's Antifa roundtable last month, nails it: the new policy is a "game changer" in this endless tug-of-war between the black-bloc berserkers, their media cheerleaders, and an administration that's finally pushing back.

DHS laid it out in their rollout: The rushed timeline? Blame the "sharp uptick in violence" against immigration officers and detention centers—because nothing screams "justice reform" like firebombing feds. Other goodies in the package?

Expanded Charging Authority: FPS gets the green light to nail violators on or off property, as long as it messes with Uncle Sam's turf or tenants.

Modernized Prohibited Conduct: Drones, unauthorized tinkering, and digital sabotage are all off-limits now, because apparently even the tech bros in the mob need boundaries.

Additional Prohibited Conduct: Extra ammo for anything gumming up the works on federal grounds, safety, security, the whole orderly shebang.

Clearer Public Notice: Signs at the gates spelling it out, no fine print required.

Collaboration with Stakeholders: Teamwork makes the dream work: feds, guards, and local cops all in the huddle. Look, if history's any guide, the ACLU's ambulance-chasers will be filing briefs before the ink dries. Free speech! Expression! 

Oh, the humanity! But until the Ninth Circuit plays dress-up judge, at least ICE's got a sharper toolkit to unmask the mobs, and remind Portland's enablers that those "nonexistent" anarchists? Yes, they're very real, and very done hiding.

Fleeing Felon? Ex-Dem Oregon Commissioner Allegedly Swipes $30K from Elder, Bolts to Mexico with Kid in Tow

Oh, the irony is thicker than a Portland protest fog: A former Democratic bigwig in Oregon, Melissa Fireside, is now America's Most Wanted in sensible shoes after allegedly lifting $30,000 from her own mother's boyfriend, you know, the guy rotting away in an assisted living home. Because nothing screams "progressive values" and socialism, like preying on the vulnerable to pay off your own debts.

According to KPTV, this little escapade went down back in March 2025. Fireside, ex-Clackamas County Commissioner and presumably a card-carrying member of the "tax the rich, but not me" club, sweet-talked her way into the poor sap's bank account during a visit. Then, in a move straight out of a bad Lifetime movie, she rings up the bank, walks the guy through resetting his online login, and boom! Access granted. 

Prosecutors say she funneled $29,000 straight to square up a loan from a state representative (because of course it was). Oh, and she skimmed an extra grand for her personal piggy bank. 

The whole mess came to light when the victim's daughter spotted the sketchy charges on his credit union statement and hit the panic button. Fast-forward to last week, and the Oregon Department of Justice drops a bombshell in an Oct. 31 presser: Fireside's probably hightailed it across the border, dragging her 9-year-old son along for the joyride. The kid's dad rang up the Clackamas County DA on Wednesday, frantic that the boy was yanked from school and that his ex had "apparently fled the country." 

Authorities suspect she waltzed into Mexico on a phony ID, because why not add identity fraud to her rap sheet?

And get this: Just Tuesday, she supposedly booked a hop from Mexico to Amsterdam. International woman of mystery? More like international woman of misdemeanor , wait, no, make that felonies. She's slapped with first-degree aggravated theft, first-degree theft, computer crime, and first-degree forgery. Her conditional release explicitly banned her from jetting out of Oregon without a hall pass. 

Trial was set for Dec. 2. Guess who's a no-show?

"Our top concern right now is the safety and well-being of this child," said Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield. "We are working closely with law enforcement partners here and at the federal level to locate Ms. Fireside and ensure she is held accountable under Oregon law. No one should be able to evade justice by crossing a border."

Spoken like a true blue-state enforcer, Dan, though one can't help but wonder if the DOJ's resources were this gung-ho when it came to, say, actual border security. 

Fireside's saga is a reminder: In the party of "eat the rich," sometimes they just help themselves to grandma's boyfriend's nest egg instead. Lock her up and send the bill to the state rep who loaned her the cash.

Antifa’s Portland Party Crashes Hard as Feds Roll In

Antifa's reign of chaos in Portland just hit a brick wall, and it's glorious. As RedState dropped earlier, President Donald Trump came out swinging Saturday morning, announcing he's sending in the cavalry to deal with the anti-ICE mayhem in that far-left dumpster fire of a city, where Antifa's been running amok like they own the place. You know, the same Antifa that Democrats swear is just a figment of our imagination.

"I am directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland, and any of our ICE Facilities under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists," Trump declared on Truth Social, making it crystal clear he's green-lighting “full force” if these clowns don't back off.

Antifa, never ones to miss a chance to light a Molotov cocktail, reportedly cooked up a "direct action" stunt at Portland's ICE facility for Sunday afternoon. Spoiler alert: they're not exactly winning hearts and minds.

While we’re still waiting to see how that plays out, and when the troops will actually hit the ground, the feds weren't messing around Friday night, even before Trump's big announcement. They were already out there, ready to shut down the Antifa circus. When the black-clad brigade kicked off their Saturday night tantrum, they got a rude awakening. Not only did the feds bring the heat from the air:

But they also showed up on the ground, ready to rumble.

Katie Daviscourt, a boots-on-the-ground reporter for The Post Millennial, nailed it: "It's mass chaos tonight outside the ICE facility. Agitators appear to be furious about military deployment." Gee, you think? Nothing says "we’re losing" like a bunch of masked wannabe revolutionaries throwing a fit when the adults show up.

Here's the deal: Antifa's days of turning blue cities into their personal playground are numbered. Trump's done with the Democrats' spineless "leadership" that lets these thugs treat public streets like their own anarchist Airbnb. The longer they keep this up, the worse it’s gonna get for them. 

And honestly? Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch.

Antifa disrupts Christian worship, Proud Boys clash with them, police 'sit on their hands' and watch

Headgear by G. Soros and Co.

 Portland, OR -- A crowd of Marxist Antifa scumcrumpets violently shut down a Christian prayer even on the waterfront prior to another kerfuffle between them and alleged Proud Boys members. The groups threw projectiles at each other and called each other bad names.

Police on the sidelines decided the best way to handle the fighting was to watch and later decide who won, as the city's social workers shouted at the frenzy, "Use your words; use your words!"

One social worker, who asked to remain anonymous due to his fear of being doxxed, said that he attempted to break up a pair of fighters by telling them they needed a 'time out.' Neither fighter stopped fighting but the social worker felt he at least tried, and as far as he was concerned, they stopped fighting in their hearts.

The first brew ha ha started Saturday at an open-air event planned at Tom McCall Waterfront Park near the Battleship Oregon Memorial. Artur Pallowski, a preacher who had been arrested in Canada for defying coronavirus restrictions [that only apply to sophisticated Democrats and Barack Obama] hosted the event. 

Several Marxist Twitter accounts that call themselves Antifa, tweeted about the event, ostensibly to alert fellow scumbags to prepare for battle. Videos posted online showed them dressed in black as they showed up for the fight.

Andy Ngo video recorded some of the event. You can see some of the video he shot and judge what happened for yourself.

Dozens of people carrying black umbrellas and shields are seen spraying red and yellow gas at the group of worshippers, as other Antifa members steal sound equipment, lawn chairs and wagons left across the lawn by families who had come to listen to the pastor speak. 

Meanwhile, the police did nothing.

"All Cops are B*******, in the name of Jesus," a dude’s voice is heard saying during the melee. Most likely this person was an antifa-level intellectual, based on his ability to speak a coherent sentence. 

Children and toddlers along with parents were at the worship event when antifa Marxists began hurling things at them.

A videographer said that antifa threw eggs and "[T]hey threw a flash bomb [probably meant a flash bang] into a group of kids who were out there."

A male worshipper said one of the pastors walked up to ask the group of demonstrators to stop -- but he was pepper sprayed. 

The cops watched.

The Portland Tribune reported that members of the Proud Boys, eventually descended on the worship event and clashed with the Antifa members. Additional video circulated online by independent journalist Andy Ngo shows the clashes carried onto a nearby city street, and the alleged Proud Boys members, seen dressed in yellow and black garb, fired a paint ball gun at several Antifa members.

It was a fun time for all . . . except the toddlers and kids and anyone who was injured.

A Portland Police Bureau cruiser pulled up at the scuffle and flashed its siren, which scared other police officers who weren't ready for it as fighters couldn't care less about the noise, One guy yelled at the officer behind the wheel, "Do your job," but got the same results from the cop as the siren got from the scufflers.

Portland going for the gold in shootings for the year

The U.S. Women's Soccer team may not get the gold this time around, [kneeling for the National Anthem is bad karma] but the record for homicides is looking good for the bad guys as 53 have already occurred this year and it's looking to break the all-time high record of 70 from back in 1987.

In spite of the surge in murders, Portland Police seem unable to find cops willing to put their careers on the line to fill positions on the newly re-constructed "gun violence" team so it looks like guns will continue to be violent.

Portland Police Association Executive Director Daryl Turner says that one reason cops of the Rapid Response team resigned is that some elected officials did not support officers during the more than 150 days of [mostly peaceful] riots in the liberal city.

The department is struggling to find naive officers willing to serve on its newly resurrected gun violence unit which had been shut down over a year ago when the Black Lives Matter movement along with antifa thugs, were looting, destroying property, intimidating and killing people for not being Marxist anarchists.

The Portland's Gun Violence Reduction Team, once prestigious, is now considered a trap for cops who simply want to do their job as they come under intense scrutiny and are considered guilty and need to be punished before exonerating evidence unfolds.

Homicides have surged since the unit was disbanded last summer after the morons of the Portland City Council voted to slash the police bureau’s budget by $15 million. Then crime rose faster than a high-fat turd in a kiddy pool. So leftist Mayor Ted Wheeler (D) proposed a new unit in March renamed the "Focused Initiative Team." 

Yeah, changing the name should do it.

Fourteen team openings were announced in May, but only four cops applied and none have as yet been accepted.

The FIT team also includes its own angry citizen advisory board just hoping to find something to pin on a cop. In the past, officials were angered over the old unit for going after people of color who happened to be committing the crimes they were being pursued for, but now the new team include the "ability to identify and dismantle institutional and systemic racism in the bureau’s responses to gun violence."

"They’re demonizing and vilifying you, and then they want to put you in a unit where you’re under an even bigger microscope," Turner said.

In voting to disband the old team tasked with investigating gun violence last year, Portland officials cited data showing the 52% of stops conducted in 2019 were for Black people, who represent 5.8% of the city’s population. But they didn't show whether the stops were due to the police identifying the person being stopped by melanin level. 

Jami Resch, assistant chief of the Portland Police Bureau’s investigations branch, argued that the unit’s past work was beneficial in minority communities, as shootings have disproportionately impacted the 23% of Portland’s population that is non-White.

Police departments across the nation have seen a rise in resignations and retirements as part of the aftermath of sweeping calls by Marxist protesters and Marxist lawmakers alike to "defund the police."

From April 2020 through March 2021, Police Executive Research Forum, a think tank based in Washington, D.C., recorded an 18% increase in resignations and a 45% increase in retirements compared to the same time period a year prior.

You'd have to be crazy to become a cop nowadays.

CNN en Español overtly pro Communist, anti-freedom protesters

CNN En Español’s Directo USA newscast recently talked about the Cuba situation in two separate segments. 

The first segment attempted to explain how a low turnout of protesters in Miami was a sign that opponents of the communist regime were losing hope that things on the island will change. [The implication therefore is that Cuban Americans and those still held like prisoners in Cuba, might as well give up and go with the flow.]

The second segment was more like a BS session with almost ten minutes of propaganda devoted to belittling the anti-communist protesters (some of whom waved American flags, which is a "racist" trigger to the Left because everything they disagree with is racist). After the 'put-downs' of anti-communists, the network moved on to give a voice to the pro-regime/pro-communist BS.

ANAMARIA MEJIA, CNN: What we’re really seeing today is a reduction in the number of people showing up, and I will show you where we are- at the Freedom Tower- an iconic place that just eight days ago -not this past Saturday but the previous one- was completely full of people who at this very spot were calling for the freedom of Cuba.

JUAN CARLOS LOPEZ, CNN: Carlos, what’s your take on what happened in Cuba on the eleventh of July and what’s happened since: the protests, the internet shutdown, the reports of excessive use of force against these protesters and official statements that there was no uprising and the situation on the island is normal?

CARLOS LAZO: Um, yes...look, I do believe that there was an inflection point of desperation in the population. The point being that there's an ongoing pandemic, and in addition to the pandemic, (that inflection point was) aggravated by the problems of the Cuban economy, and at the same time (aggravated by) the sanctions that were increased during this Trump era.

ACTIVIST: We have to build bridges of love between the peoples of Cuba and of the United States. Cuba yes! Blockade No!

So Mejia's emphasis on low protester turnout in Miami was done to diminish the effects of the SOS Cuba protests and make the Miami Cubans look like outliers. 

When coupled with anchor Juan Carlos López’ snarky dismissal (“they should check their social media”) of the protesters’ concerns that the Biden Administration’s statement might be insufficient, it is clear that CNN is hostile towards the SOS Cuba protests because CNN now stands for the Communist News Network and didn't tell us directly.

Perhaps CNN En Español failed to check the Miami Herald or other outlets, but that's unlikely. They probably are aware of the thousands of folks from Miami and elsewhere gathering in the Washington, D.C. streets around the clock in solidarity with the Cuban people. 

But when the anal sphincters at CNN are willing to make up things and labeled the protests in Cuba as a COVID superspreader event, while labeling the riots, looting, violence and even murders by BLM and antifa, in Portland and other Democratic-led cities. as "mostly peaceful," what else can we think of them?

We need to wake up and smell the stink.

Portland Mayor comrade Wheeler asked about 'White supremacists' sharing blame with 'anarchists' regarding city violence

Comrade Wheeler

As violence and rioting continued in Portland over the weekend, far-left Mayor comrade Ted Wheeler was asked in a virtual news conference why "white supremacists" share the blame with "anarchists" for the criminal behavior being perpetrated in the streets of Portland, in spite of the evidence all pointing to militants of Antifa and Black Lives Matter. [H/T The Blaze]

While the useless leftist agreed to the point, he also emphasized the bigger problem of "white nationalism" on a national level.

KATU-TV noted that Monday's conference concerned "ongoing criminal destruction, violence and intimidation small groups of self-described anarchists and white supremacists continue to inflict on local businesses, neighborhoods and people."

Alex Zielinski, news editor of the Portland Mercury, asked the impotent mayor why a news release that announced the news conference mentioned "anarchists and white supremacists" as a problem when only BLM and Antifa criminal activity had been discussed during the news conference.

The crappy mayor began by deferring to the Portland Police Bureau for examples of "recent white supremacist actions" in the city, and then he acknowledged the accuracy of the reporter's assessment while offering his bulls**t response that takes a politician to give.

"We are in a time of political extremes," the nation's third worst mayor began, [see Andrew "Handy Andy" Cuomo and Gavin Newsom for more on this assessment] admitting that during the news conference city leaders are discussing "criminal destruction coming from self-described anarchist left."

Then following the leftist's agenda the garbage Mayor of Portland said:

"But we also have to acknowledge that in the United States the number-one public safety threat according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation is white nationalism. [Where is the actual evidence for this bold claim?] And we certainly saw elements of that coming to bear during the insurrection at the United States Capitol, and we certainly have to keep up our vigilance here in the City of Portland. 

"I would expect that given that we are largely seen as a progressive community, we will continue to not only have the type of activities that we saw on Friday night continue to some degree, but I would also expect that we will continue to see those who are engaged in intimidation or violence against immigrants, refugees, and people of color to also continue here in the City of Portland because they know they'll get a reaction. [It's unlikely he's also referring to the recent attacks on Asians, where statistically, they are being carried out more by minorities, particularly by Black men, than White people. I think Al Gore might call that an inconvenient truth, unlike his documentary on global warming, but that's a different story.] The idiot mayor continued, "We have to be vigilant regardless of the politics involved. There is no room for violence or criminal destruction, and I don't give a damn what your politics are nor should anybody else. It's about the behavior." 

[And if you believe that Wheeler doesn't give a damn about what your politics is, then you probably wear two or more masks when driving alone in your car.]

There is no obvious evidence of lawlessness by "white supremacists" in Portland of late, and Wheeler didn't, and couldn't provide any examples. But the left never needs examples other than their words.

Wheeler appears to be afraid of condemning the violence by the actual people who are committing it so the default position of the left is to blame "white nationalism" inspired by Trump.

Their words and racism are wearing very thin.

HQ for Portland Public Schools targeted in arson attack: Antifa/BLM suspected

Portland's Public School system headquarters was the target of an arson attack early Saturday morning. Fortunately, nobody was injured but the building was vandalized and several vehicles were torched, destroying a food delivery truck and a number of "maintenance vans." [H/T Fox News]

No arrests were made in the mostly peaceful attack nor have officials said who they believe are responsible, but you can bet that it wasn't Trump supporters this time.

However, Portland based journalist, Andy Ngo, said that there were graffiti messages left behind, repeating "a BLM-Antifa mantra" and an "anarchist symbol was also sprayed on the building." Two years ago, Ngo was the victim of an Antifa attack, a group labeled a "concept" by cretinous Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY).

Ngo didn't discuss the "mantra" in detail that described the groups together but they have often been linked this way because they both violently rioted together over last summer and they both hate America and the flag.

Fox News was unable to reach the Portland Police Bureau to confirm whether either group had left graffiti marks on the Public School’s headquarters, but I tend to believe Andy Ngo.

"While I am relieved that no one was hurt and there was no further damage to the building, this malicious act of arson and property destruction last night was criminal and it has no place in our community," Portland Public School Superintendent Guadalupe Guerrero said in a Saturday statement.

Technically, that kind of behavior has no place in civilized society.

"This act of violence will not deter us from our commitment to educating our students, providing them meals, or any of the other work we are privileged to carry out every day in support of our students and families."

Yeah, sure. Tell that garbage to the teachers' unions who refuse to follow the science and open the schools for in-class learning.

Judge okays Oregon House vote to expel Dem. Rep. Diego Hernandez

Democratic Rep. Diego "Two Chins" Hernandez attempted to prevent the House of Representatives from voting on whether to expel him from the state Legislature, but all his hard work went for naught. A judge declined to intervene on Saturday and the move will go forward.

At the beginning of February, lawmakers determined that Hernandez harassed and created a hostile work environment for three women.

The House could vote as early as Tuesday on whether to expel the Portland Democrat.

Hernandez's lawsuit tried for a temporary restraining order to stop the vote on expulsion as well as to prevent other sanctions. After all, it was merely three women; it wasn't like a lot of them.

However, much to Hernandez's chagrin, US District Court Judge Ann Aiken made it clear the Oregon Legislature has been “entrusted with power over policing its own members,” and she was uncomfortable allowing the court to intervene when there is a process in place that is designed to do so.

In Judge Aiken's opinion, Hernandez’s contention was he would suffer “public condemnation, damaged reputation, and reduced financial expectations” if he was expelled without being provided “a meaningful opportunity to be heard.”

“However, plaintiff has not plead any facts that his expulsion is certain or even likely to occur,” Aiken wrote. “In order to forestall the possibility of this uncertain outcome, the Court would need to intrude on the prerogatives of the Oregon Legislature, ordering, as (Hernandez) requests, that the House of Representatives not even consider a resolution submitted by its own members.”

It would take a two-thirds vote or 40 members of the House to expel Hernandez, which implies mathematically, that there are 60 House members altogether if my calculations are correct.

The third-term Democratic lawmaker, who represents East Portland, would be the first loser expelled from the Legislature, according to available state records. The vote would not happen, however, if Hernandez decided to resign first, much like former President Richard Milhous Nixon [aka Tricky Dicky] did before his impeachment was vote on.

During oral arguments held on Thursday, Hernandez’s lawyer, Kevin Lafky, argued that his client has not had a meaningful chance to present his case. The House Conduct Committee, Lafky said, missed evidence that would have added context and nuance to Hernandez’s case. When Hernandez tried to offer more evidence to bolster his case, his attorney pointed out, much of it was highly redacted.

“It would be like a jury saying, ‘Well, judge, thanks for those exhibits. But I’m not going to consider them,’” Lafky told the judge.

Judge Aiken disagreed with Lafky’s interpretation in her opinion. She noted that Hernandez was able to participate and respond to the investigation, to the House Conduct Committee members. And, she noted, he will have a chance to speak to his colleagues on the House floor before they vote on whether to expel him.

State House Speaker Tina Kotek, another Portland Democrat, which means she's a socialist, has already affirmed that the normal time constraints put on floor debates would be waived, giving anyone an opportunity to speak as long as they needed while discussing the vote. 

During the oral arguments, the judge also pointed out the vote was initially planned for last Tuesday and Hernandez had not planned to attend or testify.

The Feb. 16 scheduled vote was canceled due to the weather, much like President Biden and putting a lid on his day, but Hernandez filed an excused absence on Feb. 12 citing he would not be present for the vote due to “physical and mental health reasons.”

Marc Abrams, the attorney representing the state Legislature, argued the lawmaker was “subjected to an extensive investigation and he was found to have committed most of the alleged acts.” He also disagreed with Lafky’s assertion that Hernandez was denied due process.

Hernandez “has received abundant process; he merely dislikes the outcome,” Abrams wrote in the reply to the lawsuit.

In her opinion, Aiken also writes that Hernandez claimed the actions against him are “based substantially on (his) race,” and alleges “many Caucasian members ... have committed much more severe acts” than him but never faced expulsion.”

But, she continued, Hernandez has failed to present any evidence that any action taken against him was based on his ethnicity, a claim that has been beaten to death by those on left since time immemorial. I even be a racist for writing this post, but I don't believe I am.

Hernandez has also argued extensively throughout this process that the rule prohibiting workplace harassment in the Capitol is flawed. "Guys should be allowed to flirt or make 'hot' comments to chicks. It makes them feel special, you know what I mean?"

He really didn't say that but he really did say the process in the Capitol is flawed.

Portland Mayor Wheeler removes head from nether regions and has an epiphany about Antifa

Portland, Oregon Mayor Ted "The Head" Wheeler (D-of course) finally realized you can't make nicey-nice to an alligator and expect it not to eat you. He now understands that antifa and other anarchists do what they do because they like it.

Wheeler finally removed his head from his nether regions and condemned antifa after yet another looting and riot spree on New Year's Eve. He's a slow learner and we cannot even be certain that he has actually learned from the past.

The far-Left Mayor spoke at a press conference New Year's Day and said protesters caused tens of thousands of dollars in damage. They broke windows, started fires and spray-painted private businesses in the downtown area of the city late Thursday night.

Wheeler proved his level of stupidity and incompetence by asking during his press conference, “Why would a group of largely white, young and some middle-age men destroy the livelihood of others who are struggling to get by?”

Answer: because it's fun and it's how they roll. They don't need a good reason, they simply need a reason, Teddy, you moron.

Law enforcement said that some of the protesters threw Molotov cocktails Thursday night and caused thousands of dollars in property damage in the downtown area.

Wheeler spoke with Multnomah County DA Mike Schmidt [not the former baseball great] and finally called for more prosecutions and accountability for "radical antifa and anarchists" seeking to cause damage and wreak havoc in the city. The violent protests have been going on for scores of nights in 2020.

“My good faith efforts at de-escalation have been met with ongoing violence and even scorn from radical antifa and anarchists,” Wheeler naively said. “In response, it will be necessary to use additional tools and to push the limits of the tools we already have to bring the criminal destruction and violence to an end.”

Tools? Hahahaha. No, seriously . . . hahahahaha. With Trump leaving office, they are running out of excuses for the anarchy.

Wheeler committed to three counter-approaches for handling violent protesters in the city, including asking federal, state, county and local law enforcement "to convene to deal with anarchist violence as soon as possible."

He finally called on the state legislature to increase penalties for repeat offenders, adding that he believes people who are convicted of criminal destruction should be "required to meet with those whose businesses they damaged." 

But will they be allowed to walk out of court, bail-free? Kamala Harris thinks they should, and so do many, many leftists. 

In 2020, Wheeler did all but French kiss BLM leaders and antifa thugs while President Trump urged him to call in federal troops to quell the violence. Wheeler did nothing and his lack of initiative emboldened them even more. With Trump leaving office, the Democrats are going to have to do something, which is not how they roll.

3 Antifa fascists arrested in Portland after damaging at least 10 businesses

Portland, OR -- Police arrested three scumwafers early Thursday morning after it was reported that vandals were smashing windows and spraying graffiti on buildings.

The Portland Police Bureau  posted a press release Thursday describing the crime, writing that police responded to multiple call around 1:22 a.m. reporting a group “breaking windows and spraying graffiti.” 

Callers reported that the weasels were dressed in black [Antifa style] and moving west along Southeast Hawthorne Boulevard.

“Police arrived and found a group near Southeast 37th Avenue and Southeast Harrison Street matching the description and carrying evidence connecting them to the vandalism,” police reported. “Officers canvassed the neighborhood, spoke to witnesses, and found damage to at least ten businesses between Southeast 41st Avenue and Southeast 33rd Avenue along Southeast Hawthorne Street, in both the Sunnyside and Richmond neighborhoods. Some of the damage was sufficient to provide access to the interior of retail stores so officers contacted responsible parties and stood by while contractors or employees boarded up windows. Grocery stores, banks, an auto service center, a package distribution and mailing center, and local business storefronts were damaged.”

Police arrested 24-year-old Chester "The Jester" Hester, 38-year-old Nicole "Manuel" Noriega, and 23-year-old "Beetle" Bailey Willack. Each Mc crap-muffin was charged with 10 counts of Criminal Mischief.

“Officers found one adult in possession of a semi-automatic pistol. That person was referred out of custody to the district attorney’s office for potential weapons charges. One juvenile was detained and referred to the court for crimes related to property damage,” police noted, without saying whether the person with a pistol was one of the three named suspects. “Based on witness statements, it is likely that more people were involved in these crimes and police will try to determine their identity through further investigation."

The former conservative Fox News reported that authorities “estimated the group caused ‘thousands’ of dollars in damage but weren't specific about the estimated amount. 

Portland has been plagued with Black Lives Matter rioting over the summer and with Antifa violence for years. 

This is just the latest incident in a city marred by riots over the summer and years of Antifa violence. 

Just one day after the 2020 general election, and after months of allowing violent rioters to go unchecked as Portland police were ordered to stand around with their hands in their pockets and their minds above their waists, Oregon's totally useless Gov. Kate Brown (D) finally authorized the National Guard to help the deteriorating town, 

The Multnomah County Sheriff tweeted:

Unified Command on National Guard activation: Widespread violence is occurring in Downtown Portland. In the interest of public safety, Governor Kate Brown, under advice of the Unified Command, has activated the use of the Oregon National Guard to assist local law enforcement in responding to any acts of violence, and to maintain public order and ensure community safety. Guard members are trained in crowd control and will be riding with local response teams.

They are dressed in military style garb, which is their uniform. Oregon National Guard members are civilian community members helping to protect us. We don’t take this decision lightly. Under the Governor’s Order, we continue to work together and share our resources and information to address any public safety concerns. Our goal is to keep our community safe. We encourage demonstrators to gather peacefully.

You have a better chance of seeing a Saudi Arabian bar mitzvah than seeing a peaceful Antifa/BLM protest. 

It's time to put an end to the violence, looting and destruction of property. But if Joe Biden assumes the presidency, you have a better chance of being struck by a meteor at 5 a.m. in Times Square in January and then get hit by lightning before your glowing body hits the ground.

Portland City Commish said 911 calls are unnecessary: Guess who she called when her ride was canceled

You cannot make this up--the hypocrisy would be infuriating if it wasn't so hysterically funny.

Jo Ann Hardesty, Portland's City Commissioner, pushed to defund the police in her city and claimed most 911 calls are unnecessary. In other words, if a crime wasn't being committed or about to be, or a medical emergency or any other serious emergency required immediate assistance, do not, absolutely do not call 911.

She forgot she said the "not" word.

When Hardesty's Lyft driver tried to cancel her ride and drop her off at a gas station, she called 911. She probably calls 911 if her dough doesn't rise or she breaks a nail.

Fox News, a newly left wing news outlet, reported that Hardesty allegedly demanded that Lyft driver, Richmond Frost, roll the windows up because she said she was cold. But due to COVID-19, Lyft instructed its drivers on how to handle the situation. The instructions they all received state clearly: “Roll down the windows during trips and / or use the car’s vents to bring in fresh outside air. Avoid using the recirculated air option for the car’s ventilation.”

Joe Biden would be proud of Frost and of Lyft for doing their small part to end the China virus.

“Hardesty, who heads up Portland’s 911 system, had been picked up from ilani Casino in Washington when the series of disagreements began,” according to The Daily Mail.

The Portland Tribune noted that “Hardesty has pushed to cut the police budget noting that many 911 calls are unnecessary, and police response often not needed.”

Except in her case because Hardesty's life matters; not so much for Frost's job.

Hardesty called 911, followed by Frost doing the same. In Hardesty’s call the exchange went like this:

HARDESTY: Well, I’ve got a Lyft driver that decided he would just drop me off at a filling station. Well, I’m not getting out of the car, in the dark, at a filling station, not happening. All because I asked him to put the window up. But I’m not leaving. He says I have to get out of his car or he’s calling the police. So I decided to call for him.

911 OPERATOR: Okay. I mean, technically, it’s his property and you have a civil agreement. There’s no crimes involved.

HARDESTY: Well, he said he was calling the cops.

911 OPERATOR: It’s not a crime to call the cops.

Hardesty started to speak, prompting the 911 operator to ask, “What was that?”

HARDESTY: I said, I am not going to allow him to leave me on the side of the road. I paid for a ride and he says he canceled it, so I’m just going to sit here until he sends me another ride.

FROST: I can’t send you a ride.

911 OPERATOR: Only you can order another ride.

HARDESTY: This is not a police issue? Then I won’t hang up, but I’m not getting out of this car in the dark.

911 OPERATOR: Do you understand that only you can order another ride?

HARDESTY: Well, I didn’t cancel the ride; he canceled the ride.

911 OPERATOR: Which is his obligation as a human being on the basis he has a right to cancel a contract like that. It’s not a crime; part of your user license agreement when you accept taking rides with strangers. So I can have an officer come out but they’re not going to be able to make him stay there.

HARDESTY: I mean, he can’t go anywhere cause I’m not moving until another car comes.

911 OPERATOR: So I can have officers come out. Where are you?

HARDESTY: I don’t know where I am. Apparently I’m at the Chevron.

911 OPERATOR: In what city?

HARDESTY, prompted by Lyft: In Richfield.

911 OPERATOR: What’s your name?

HARDESTY: My name is Jo Anne Hardesty.

911 OPERATOR: All right. We’ll have officers come out.

Frost’s call started with him alerting the 911 operator where he was and who he was. Then this exchange followed:

FROST: I got a customer where I canceled the ride. I’m a ride-share driver and I canceled the ride. And I’m taking her off the freeway to the filling station so she can order another ride. I canceled the ride so that he could no longer involve or engage with me; she’s refusing to get out of my car. I’ve attempted to tell her she’s not going to get another ride; she can perfectly do that, get another driver but she’s refusing to do that.

911 OPERATOR: And she’s in your car now? Are you in there with her?

FROST: Yes. I’m sitting in the front seat; she’s in the back seat. I can step out of the vehicle if you’d like me to do that.

911 OPERATOR: Oh, no, no, no. That’s okay. And she’s already called us. Is that right?

FROST: Yes. She called.

911 OPERATOR: Okay. We do have a call entered in Richfield A police officer is dispatching a call as of right now unless they get diverted for another emergency or what-not they should be coming to you. Has she any weapons or anything like that on there?

FROST: I doubt it.

911 OPERATOR: Okay.

After asking for identification again, the 911 operator asked, “She hasn’t been violent or anything like that, right?”

FROST: No. She’s just refusing to get out of the car.

Hardesty later lied to the Portland Tribune, “I don’t call 911 lightly, but I certainly am not going to do anything that would put my personal safety at risk. I knew that having him call the police would put me in danger. And that’s why I proactively called 911. It’s a lot harder when you are black or brown in America to make that decision … But I ultimately had very limited options.”

It's always about race when you're a leftist.

Frost said, “I spent 40 years in the service business. There’s always a few people, you cannot please them no matter what you do,” adding that the 911 call from Hardesty “was so unnecessary … To argue and belittle and to treat me the way I felt she treated me was completely unnecessary.”

Hardesty claimed that the Chevron station was about to close, stating, “I didn’t know how long I would have to wait. There was no way I was going to get out on the side of the road, in the dark, because some driver has an attitude, and decided I should just get out and just whatever happens happens.”

Hardesty stated in her complaint to Lyft, according to The Daily Mail: “’I requested a ride, the driver came to the wrong pick up location, He then blamed me. I asked him to roll the window up on my side and he started to yell, ‘I can’t because the regulations require each window to be cracked.’ He then pulls over in the dark on the side of a gas station and told me he was cancelling the ride. I had no interest in being left on the side of the road by an angry driver. He threatened to call the police. I called the police & another car. Both arrived at the same time. It is totally inappropriate to expect a woman to get out of a vehicle in the dead of night because any angry person demands it. This is a safety issue for your customer. Your driver was in no danger.”

It was also a safety issue for the driver, who actually owns the car.

Lyft replied: “The feedback alleged that you refused to exit the driver’s vehicle after they requested you do so. As a reminder, drivers are free to end a ride for any reason as long as the drop off is in a safe location. Safety is our top priority. We take these matters very seriously. We encourage everyone using Lyft to be respectful of others. This helps maintain a safe and inclusive community. Please know that future reports of this nature may lead to additional action being taken on your account.”

You gotta love Lyft for taking the driver's side. Hardesty is obviously a hypocritical fool who believes she's entitled to be treated like royalty. It's unknown whether or not she has COVID-19 but Frost evidently is covid-free.

C'mon, man, gimme a break. You know you want to follow Brain Flushings--it's free and worth every penny. And remember, every time you click on an ad, an angel gets its wings and a liberal sheds a tear. C'mon.

Mostly peaceful leftists target home of Portland official who won't defund the police

Portland's City Commissioner Dan Ryan refused to defund the city's police which infuriated a group of mostly peaceful rioters who targeted his home. They threw objects that mostly did not hit anyone, broke windows that are only used for looking out from, threw burning flares and paint-filled balloons at his home, but no one was injured or killed, so there's that.

Late last month, the city council convened to consider Commissioner Jo Ann Hardesty's proposal to cut Portland's Police Bureau budget by $18 million, effectively rendering them impotent. 

Ryan, who was sworn in September, was visited by the protesters who pressured him to vote for the proposal. But he voted not to go forward with a formal vote on Hardesty's ludicrous proposal because he has a functioning cerebrum and insisted he needed more information, delaying the vote until November 5th when the vote was taken and the proposal by the leftist Hardesty was voted down.

“The majority of the council called for more comprehensive discussions of how to best reform public safety in Portland and expressed concerns over the layoffs that could result from a cut of that size,” Oregon Live explained.

“After nearly six hours of testimony Wednesday evening, Ryan in effect cast the deciding vote—to not have a formal vote on Hardesty’s proposal, saying he needed more information about the impact the cuts would have on the bureau. He sided with Mayor Ted Wheeler and Commissioner Amanda Fritz in delaying a vote until Nov. 5,” Willamette Week reported.

In spite of Mayor Ted Wheeler being a card-carrying cretin, he had enough sense to realize how a defunded police force in a town that has suffered from riots that the police force was forced to stand back and watch, would allow further destruction of what's left in Portland.

Regarding the vandalism and wanton targeting of Ryan's home, the sheriff's office stated, “The Portland Police Bureau and Portland Fire & Rescue are actively investigating this alarming criminal activity that put an entire neighborhood at risk. This is the fourth night in the past week Commissioner Ryan has had agitators cause both vandalism and disruption to his home and neighborhood,” as reported by ABC News. 

In September, a poll found that a near-majority of normal Oregon voters thought police should use more force in confronting protesters. This was especially true for grownups who owned homes and businesses.

In the poll, 42% of respondents felt the police should use more force; another 18% felt the force currently used was fine with them while 66% of Oregonians disapproved of the protests. 

“Voters ages 18-29 are the only group to approve of the protests, because overall, they have nothing substantial to lose. 62% approve while 33% in that age group disapprove and will likely go on to be successful, earning adults, while their counterparts will likely live on the dole.

Twenty-six percent of Portland obviously brain-dead

After more than 100 nights of riots in Portland, OR, nights that saw looting, burning, the total destruction of small businesses, murder and mayhem by anti-American fascists, and outright anarchists known as Antifa, the Democratic Mayor Ted Wheeler didn't lift a finger to stop the rioters. He told the police to stand down and watch the city burn.

Only 63 percent of Portlanders  realize that this mayor is a cancer to the city he runs, while 26 percent are evidently brain dead and believe he's doing a good job, according to a poll paid for by Yes for Real Community Oversight of Police, a political action committee.

Wheeler, whose age and IQ  is alleged to be 58, has been the city’s incompetent leftist mayor since January 2017.

Toward the end of August, Wheeler sent a letter to President Trump, saying “No thanks,” to Trump’s offer of sending federal officers to Portland to help quell the nightly unrest that was burning the city and terrorizing the residents.

“We don’t need your politics of division and demagoguery,” Wheeler wrote, which was divisive and irrational seeing that in only a few hours after the moron wrote the letter, protesters staged a sit-in at the condominium building where Wheeler lived and since had to relocate.

On Aug. 30th, the President responded to Wheeler’s letter, calling the idiot mayor "incompetent" and compared him to Joe Biden.

The following day, Chad Wolf, the acting Homeland Security Secretary, warned Wheeler in a letter that if Oregon and local officials fail to protect their residents from the rioting, the federal government  “will have no choice but to protect our American citizens."

The poll results released Tuesday also showed that only 59% of  voters believe the city is heading in the wrong direction, the poll said, meaning that fully 41%are oblivious to what's going on.

Portland shooter suspect killed during arrest

A former newspaper known as The New York Times reported that Michael F. Reinoehl was shot and killed when a federal fugitive task force tried to arrest him. It is unknown how many rounds were fired at the guy who allegedly killed a pro-police demonstrator in cold blood, but it shouldn't be surprising if it's significantly more than four.

Reinoehl, 48, was an Antifa sympathizer and a prime suspect in the fatal shooting of Aaron "Jay" Danielson, a Patriot Prayer supporter in Portland, OR in August. Reinoehl died in Lacey, WA, near Seattle, during a federal task force operation.

In this case, what allegedly goes around, allegedly comes around.

DISCLAIMER: Not all scumcrumpets are Antifa members, but all Antifa members are scumcrumpets.

Portland Police issued an arrest warrant for Reinoehl earlier in the day, amid their investigation into the Aug. 29 fatal shooting of Aaron “Jay” Danielson, on a night in which supporters of President Trump clashed with backers of the Black Lives Matter movement in Portland.

Earlier Thursday, Reinoehl was quoted in an interview on the Vice website, claiming he was a marked man, like the marked man he allegedly shot twice and killed.

“They’re out hunting me,” the alleged murderer and father of two told an independent reporter in the interview posted Thursday by Vice. He apparently was hoping everyone reading the post would feel sorry for him.

“There’s nightly posts of the hunt and where they’re going to be hunting. They made a post saying the deer are going to feel lucky this year because it’s open season on Michael right now.”

Notice how the narrative only goes one way. They never mention why the law is looking for him. They never mention that he was slated to be arrested, not shot and killed unless he posed a violent threat to the officers.

Reinoehl admitted to journalist Donovan Farley in the interview that he had no regrets about firing his weapon last weekend. 

But he didn't just "fire" his freaking weapon, he [allegedly] fired it at a young man who didn't deserve to die.

“I was confident that I did not hit anyone innocent and I made my exit,” he said. By "exit" he meant "run like hell from the scene before the cops showed up."

The scumcrumpet was a regular participant in the nightly Portland protests that have been going on since May 25, after the death of George Floyd in police custody. Reinoehl was apparently involved in several fights during the riots.

In July, Reinoehl was shot while trying to wrestle a gun away from a stranger, and he was also cited for allegedly carrying a loaded gun to a protest on July 5, according to The Oregonian.

On July 26 the irresponsible father of two was wounded in a brawl in a downtown Portland park. 

In an online post from June 16, Reinoehl described himself as being "100 % ANTIFA all the way!" 

There should be little doubt that Reinoehl was a disturbed individual who believed in a Marxist agenda and that America is a terrible place. In other words, he had no grasp on economics, nor did he know much about American history and world history.

Prior to Thursday's law enforcement action, the assertion that Reinoehl was a person of interest in the Danielson shooting came from the his own sister and an anonymous law enforcement source.

Chandler Pappas, the victim's friend, told The Common Sense Conservative that he was with Danielson as part the Patriot Prayer group in downtown Portland on Saturday. After a while, counter-protesters arrived in the area and the two groups got into a tense confrontation that escalated into violence. [See the video below.]

"It takes a second for you to process everything that happened. 'Did he just shoot at me?'" Pappas said while standing in front of a Blue Lives Matter flag. "I'm OK. I turn over and Jay's dead because he believed something different. Jay's not a racist, a xenophobe or whatever. He's not an 'ist' or 'ism.'"

"They executed my parter," he said. "They hunted him down."

Well, with Reinoehl dead, there's another excuse for the rioters to get a new pair of Michael Jordans or something cool in electronics, or new threads.
