Portland, Oregon, Mayor Ted Wheeler lashed out at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Twitter Tuesday, urging federal agents to “stay inside” or “leave” as the city faces its sixth-straight week of protests and unrest.
“I told the Acting Secretary that my biggest immediate concern is the violence federal officers brought to our streets in recent days, and the life-threatening tactics his agents use,” Wheeler wrote Tuesday evening. “We do not need or want their help.”
DHS deployed officers from multiple federal law enforcement agencies this month to protect government installations that include a courthouse and another building.

Sounds like Jeff Davis!
Arrest the mayor.
no fed money for any of these self-inflicted libtard dumpster fires.
Not One Damned Dime. If you let your city burn, do not ask us to rebuild
Dear Mr. President,
We just saw this headline:
“Defiant Portland mayor tells Feds to ‘stay inside’ or ‘leave’ city, asks DHS to clean up graffiti“
Sir, you need to tell the arrogant bastards, like this mayor, they will not get any more Federal assistance, and not one dime from American taxpayers to clean up their disgusting mess.
Portland has been the center of American Flag burning for decades!
Tell them to go to hell. Patriotic Americans will love you for it.
Respectfully,
Mark
Wheeler wrote Tuesday evening. “We do not need or want their help.”
The Federal Government has a responsibility and right to protect taxpayer property and those employed by its agency.
You want to go all “Battle of the Little Bighorn” on your own, so be it...
Just like in Seattle, the Feds have NO business here.
This is a city issue. State at the outside.
Napoleon got a lot of things wrong, but this quote is genius and forever:
“Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.”
Interesting that the Portlanders elected a brain-damaged retard to be the head of the city government...
Portland must pay for cleaning up its own mess.
The Feds have a responsibility to protect and defend Federal property
Ted Wheeler has explicitly backed the Antifa terrorists. Therefore he is one of the terrorists. He should be dealt with as such.
They can clean up their damn graffiti. Screw them
Is everyone there leftist?
I wonder if Mayor Wheeler is related to Communist Party newspaper writer and leader Tim Wheeler, who moved his family from Baltimore, Md. to Washington State sometime in the 90’s?
Would explain a lot of things if so. If not, he’s still a dumbassed, incompetent Marxist fool.
The fed courthouse ceased being a city issue when the federal building was attacked, when fireworks were launched inside the doorways at federal officers, when there were repeated attempts to burn the building, knock out cameras, get on the roof, and when a federal officer was attacked with a hand sledge hammer.
If the city wants a tent city across from their city hall and county courthouse, go for it. But any action taken against the federal building is a felony. It’s up to the little larpers of Portland to figure out the difference between coddling and diaper changing by the city and county and the hard reality of dealing with the feds.
fyi - what the individual was doing just prior to being hit with a non-lethal round:

the ‘defiant’ portland mayor needs to be half as ‘defiant’ towards the protestors, including middle-agers who are outsiders crossing state lines to incite riot (another felony), as he thinks he’s being with DHS
and he can get his staff out there, and organize his little binky-needing larpers to clean the Fed building grafitti - it looks like crap
L8r
Let it burn!
Not a penny.
Another dumb as a doorknob DemonRat mayor. What ignorei elected this brain dead fool?
Declare ANTIFA and BLM as terrorist organizations and round up anybody who conspires with them. Give them the option of lengthy jail terms or self imposed exile. These fools need to taste socialism first hand.
