                                             'I am authorizing full force': Trump confirms deploying troops to Portland An increase in federal agents was already witnessed on Friday. Portland Mayor Keith Wilson held a press conference Friday night, acknowledging the buildup and pushing back on the controversial deployment, calling it a “big show.” “I want to be clear about the situation we face. We now have a sudden influx of federal agents in our city. We did not ask for them to come. They are here without precedent or purpose,” Wilson said. The move is not without precedent. The Trump Administration has deployed the National Guard and other active-duty troops to Los Angeles and Washington, D.C. He has also threatened to deploy troops to several other cities like Chicago and Memphis, Tenn. The President has also ramped up his rhetoric against Portland in recent weeks, saying that living in Portland is “like living in hell.”

                                             Reply to JCM in 2:  Also: Obama Library Funds Are Secretly Flowing to Dark Money Networks The numbers tell the story. In 2022 and 2023, the Obama Foundation handed over $2 million to Tides, a group best known for serving as a clearinghouse for radical left-wing causes and for shielding donor identities. It should come as no surprise that George Soros heavily backs Tides, and Tides is directly tied to groups organizing anti-Israel protests. That includes demonstrations against the Jewish state in the aftermath of the Oct. 7 Hamas atrocities. In other words, donations made in the name of funding a presidential library are now helping bankroll organizations promoting antisemitic activism under the guise of social justice. That's pretty on-brand for Barack Obama.

 And of course, think about that. Right after… indeed, even on…10/7, they started “protesting” not the monsters who carried out the barbaric attackss; but rather, the victims.
