House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)and other Democrats have gone on a tirade over apparent federal agents sweeping alleged rioters away in unmarked vehicles.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has joined the bandwagon of sanctimonious anger over the criminal suspects being apprehended in an unconventional way, highlighting the suspicion by patriotic Americans nationwide the left is not interested in quelling any civil unrest unless it happens to directly affect them.
Earlier we reported that Nancy Pelosi was calling the agents Stormtroopers for President Trump. Now Chuck Schumer has this to say about the situation, using the word abomination for the way people were arrested, but not to describe the seemingly third world chaos being seen by Portland, OR, and other areas.
There should be an immediate investigation by the Inspectors General at the Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security into this abomination.
USA Todays report that was shared by Schumer told more about the story:
Federal law enforcement officers have used unmarked vehicles to detain protesters in Portland, according to news reports and at least one protester who spoke to USA TODAY.
Videos shared online show officers driving up to people, detaining them without explanation, then driving off, Oregon Public Broadcastingfirst reported. The ACLU filed a lawsuit Friday evening to try and end what it called lawlessness on the streets of Portland.
The lawsuit the first of several that the ACLU said is to be filed against the Trump administration in Portland seeks to block the Department of Homeland Security and other agencies from attacking journalists and legal observers at protests.
Federal agents are terrorizing the community, threatening lives, and relentlessly attacking protesters demonstrating against police brutality, the ACLU said in a tweet. This is not law and order. This is lawlessness and it must be stopped.
There are reports that Ken Cuccinelli is involved in these arrests. Cuccinelli is currently the Senior Official Performing the Duties of the Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security and also serves as the Senior Official Performing the Duties of the Director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. He has given the impression that not only will they not stop, but they will start arresting more rioters around the nation in this fashion when federal authorities are legally able to do so.
How dare the stormtroopers stop the Democrat Brownshirts!

How many people did Chuck run over trying to get to the TV camera?
He can use both hands, and learn how to play switch. Thats where he puts one thumb in his mouth, and the other thumb somewhere else, and every 5 minutes, he switches. 😁
This shows you that all this rioting and looting has been an effort to get Trump to react to it
This was not heavy-handed military type tactics to use in anyway whatsoever and yet theyre still trying to react like it was
Remember their reaction when he cleared the Lafayette park before we walked across the street to the church and held the Bible up member that crazy overreaction
This is the same thing they really really really really want trump to bring in troops and guns and people down itll never happen
And the password is Palamino.
Bfl
I wonder the exact moment they sold their soul for power.
You don't want law enforcement arresting criminals? That shouldn't be allowed? WTF are you talking about?
Possibly decades ago. The only difference being, they are no longer hiding it.
Fed Agents Bump
This is an old police tactic of “grab and snatch” of “wanted” or suspected of criminal acts persons. The use of the car is a major change as the old method was to have two undercover police officers come up behind a wanted person, grab them under the arms, and hustle they away to a waiting police car, off to booking and questioning, or charged and jailed.
And it worked beautifully. I was jealous of those guys.
Do you really think we're going to behave the way these people do?
Open fire !
Now the commie Democrat's terrorist groups are committing arson, looting, assault, terrpr, and murder, and the feds are barely "checking in" on them.
They have no room to complain, even if all the commie terrorists get vaporized.
