This What Pelosi And The ACLU Are Defending: Watch As Antifa Assault Courthouse In Portland & Scream ‘WE WANT THE FIGHT’
As states try to criminalize church, singing in church, people not wearing masks, and subject persons to house arrest after testing positive for the coronavirus the ACLU has been silent. However, if you want to overthrow the United States government, attack federal property and torch police buildings they are here for you.
All video posted below was reported to have happened over the weekend.
Before we delve any farther let us talk about definitions because the woke mob is changing them, especially when it comes to the word/action “peaceful.” Here’s an example of how the rioters/activists are now defining the term peaceful after they set fire to the Portland Police Officers Union building over the weekend (we’ll get to the video very soon).
Tuck Woodstock is “journalist,” a protestor, and post video of the “protests” in Portland. This is what the extremists in Portland are saying about the burning of the PPA building. The tweet by Robert Evans below was removed by twitter because it violated their terms of service.
This is bullshit.
I was there. The burning of the PPA was an intelligent, deliberate and successful action by well organized activists. Do not take this away from them. The PPA building was a well chosen target and burning was a justified act of protest against a valid target. https://t.co/7ScZsEuVyV

I am hearing conspiracy theories that the Portland Police lit their own union building on fire. This is untrue. I was there. The burning of the PPA was a deliberate and very intelligently executed action by disciplined activists. https://t.co/o0tx2cZkTe

What this Robert Evans is referring to is some in the extremist group was trying to claim Portland Police torched the building to blame it on the activists. Evans is fighting back claiming the building was torched peacefully declaring it was a “justified act of protest against a valid target.” FYI Robert Evans is “journalist” for the far-left news organization Bellingcat.
So if the building, statue, or whatever is deemed a “valid target” it’s a peaceful demonstration.
ACLU of Oregon is suing the Trump administration because federal agents are defending the Portland federal courthouse from “peaceful protestors” who are attempting to assault law enforcement and destroy the building.
Here’s a couple of videos showing peaceful protestors after they tore down the fence barricade surrounding the building.

The ACLU claims the Trump Administration is the problem:
“This is a fight to save our democracy,” said Kelly Simon, interim legal director with the ACLU of Oregon. “Under the direction of the Trump administration, federal agents are terrorizing the community, risking lives, and brutally attacking protesters demonstrating against police brutality. This is police escalation on top of police escalation. These federal agents must be stopped and removed from our city. We will continue to bring the full fire power of the ACLU to bear until this lawless policing ends.”
Note the “peaceful protestors” trying to break through the wooden barricade and the other peaceful protestor juggling a baton.
Part of the wood protecting the courthouse in Portland has been broken and a man is trying to make the hole bigger while bashing the wall inside.
Meanwhile, people continue to bring the fencing back.

Federal officials did repeal the protestors on Saturday night, it was reported that Portland police also secured the building that was set on fire and dispersed the crowd.
You mess with the bull, you get the horns!

But wait! There’s More…
Now as Portland has seen over 50 nights of violence, Mayor Ted Wheeler claims the President defending government property is “completely unconstitutional.”
Wheeler told CNN’s Jake Tapper, “The tactics that the Trump administration is using on the streets of Portland are abhorrent. People are being literally scooped off the street into unmarked vans, rental cars, apparently. They are being denied probable cause. And they are denied due process. They don’t even know who’s pulling them into the vans. The people aren’t identifying themselves. And as far as I can see, this is completely unconstitutional.”
The Mayor has done nothing to protect his city hoping the problem would just go away. It hasn’t and Mayor Wheeler needs to resign.
