President Trump has directed 200 members of the Oregon National Guard to be deployed to Portland, claiming troops are necessary to “protect War ravaged Portland, and any of our ICE Facilities under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists.” Trump’s order comes after he signed an executive order claiming the decentralized antifa movement is a “domestic terror organization.” “There is nothing going on right now in Portland or any part of Oregon that requires him to send in the federal military,” says Sandy Chung, executive director of the ACLU of Oregon.
