'Under siege': Trump orders Hegseth to send troops into 'war-ravaged' Portland * WorldNetDaily * by WND Staff

President Trump has made good on his plan to send U.S. military troops to Portland, Oregon, a city that has had more than its share of violent protests at the hand of Antifa and other left-wing agitators.
Trump posted the news on his Truth Social account Saturday, emphasizing the he’s “authorizing Full Force, if necessary” to protect Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities in Oregon’s largest city.
Posted Trump: “At the request of Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, I am directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland, and any of our ICE Facilities under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists. I am also authorizing Full Force, if necessary. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
According to an AP report, Trump sent about 150 troops to Memphis, Tennessee, recently, far fewer than were sent recently to D.C. or Los Angeles.
Referring to Portland, Trump said Thursday, “I don’t know how anybody lives there. It’s amazing but it’s anarchy out there and that’s what they want.”
Both Oregon U.S. senators spoke at a Portland press conference Friday, vowing to fight any Trump deployment of the military and decrying ICE activity in the city.
