Authorized Consultants Blast Barr DOJ’s Use of Secret Grand Jury to Unmask Anti-Trump Twitter Account
An Oregon Public Broadcasting report went viral, revealing that many Americans are waking up to learn that President Donald Trump’s Homeland Security division has an “army of occupation,” like Oregon Senator Ron Wyden and others in the American city found Portland, Oregon.
In a nutshell, acting Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolf has sent federal armed forces, including cloaked SWAT teams, to Portland to attack largely peaceful protesters who – according to Wolf himself – are painting illegal graffiti on a federal court and breaking some windows and a door.
Wolf repeatedly calls these demonstrators “violent extremists” and “violent anarchists” and vows to “never surrender” to them. Meanwhile, Wolf’s unmarked secret police, as documented by OPB, are catching protesters from the public streets of Portland and potentially arresting or arresting them illegally.
US Senator Jeff Merkley of Oregon reposted this video. It has received 8 million views so far.
Authoritarian governments, not democratic republics, send unmarked authorities after demonstrators. These Trump / Barr eliminating accountability tactics are absolutely unacceptable in America and must end. pic.twitter.com/PE4YfZ9Vqd

He also gave some advice to President Trump.
. @ realDonaldTrump: Get your DHS lackey and uninvited paramilitary actions out of my state. Our communities are not a stage for your twisted re-election campaign.

Orgeon Governor Kate Brown and Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler have asked Wolf to remove his troops. On national television, he refused, saying, “Not on my watch.”
Sen. Wyden beat the acting Sec. Wolf on the promise “Not on my watch”:
This weekend, a peaceful protester was shot in the head with potentially lethal ammunition to control the crowd after Donald Trump dispatched Fed’l police to Portland. Trump believes he can treat law enforcement as his personal army of occupation. Not on my watch. I ask for answers: pic.twitter.com/9MytI1M05A

US Senator Elizabeth Warren from Massachusetts has condemned Trump’s “secret police”.
I thought we had this already dealt with after the attacks in Lafayette Square: The US government should not use unidentified federal officials as secret police to terrorize US citizens and violate their constitutional rights. That’s rude. https://t.co/EIXbZmHXak

As the news spreads, many are tweeting on social media using the hashtags #FacistTrump and #Gestapo and tweeting Wolf’s name. All are in trend.
Here is a selection:
I was doubtful if I saw #Gestapo on @Twitter, but what happens is real, they are literally “secret police”. “It was like being followed”: Federal officials in unmarked vans hold demonstrators in Portland https://t.co/pUFU5tYRau

Imagine if Obama sent unidentifiable “cops” to Republican cities to arrest people on the streets for hiding weapons.
What Trump is doing with his #Gestapo – perhaps Erik Prince’s private police force – in Portland, Oregon is illegal and outrageous in many ways.

Unidentified, military-equipped federal secret police in Portland kidnapped peaceful protesters from the streets and threw them into unmarked vehicles. No body camera. No ID numbers or names. No accountability. In National Socialist Germany they called it the #Gestapo. pic.twitter.com/CEavTEqcbb

Graffiti can be found in every major city in the United States, but that is Chad Wolf’s justification for the Portland secret police catching demonstrators from the streets in unmarked vehicles. # Gestapo #FascitTrump #AmericaOrTrump https://t.co/sTPJvsoBuL

Do you remember the unmarked militia in Lafayette Park? You are now in Portland arresting peaceful protesters for no reason or due process. Who are you? Who pays them Why is DHS Sec defending its actions there? #Gestapo #NaziTrump pic.twitter.com/9vTjwCXSsQ

Where’s the wall-to-wall TV coverage of the Fascist takeover of Portland?
Why isn’t Trump’s #Gestapo bigger news ?!

This is important:
Neither the Oregon government, Kate Brown, nor Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler, asked for federal military assistance to cope with the ongoing protests in the city.
However, the incumbent DHS Sec Chad Wolf decided to relegate to Portland and take over the city with troops. # Fascism

This is how Holocausts and genocides happen.
These are the first steps on a path that seems unthinkable at the beginning

TBH this looks like the bottom of every bridge and the back of every building between NY and DC from the windows of the Acela. I hope Chad Wolf doesn’t have to take the train anytime soon!

No, Chad Wolf, the violent extremists are the uniformed terrorists that you unleashed in Portland to injure and kidnap people who you are trashy fascists.
