It’s no secret that the Trump administration has sent federal officers into the riot-torn streets of Portland, Oregon, to help quell the civil unrest, a move that has inspired harsh criticism from libertarians and progressives alike. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf, however, says that the Feds are a necessary presence in Portland due to the nature of the crimes being committed.
“They’re coming armed with rocks, bottles, baseball bats, power tools, commercial grade fireworks, eliciting that violence and targeting their violence on federal courthouses and federal law enforcement officers,” Wolf said on “Sunday Morning Futures.”
