Before Trump Ordered In Troops, Federal Officers Called Portland Protests ‘Low Energy’

Internal federal reports suggest protests in Portland, Oregon, were "low energy" and consisted mainly of civil disobedience, contradicting President Trump's characterization of the city as "war-ravaged." While some tense incidents occurred, city officials maintain they can manage the situation. A federal judge also found insufficient evidence of significant violence pre-deployment. However, Trump administration officials argue the reports don't reflect the full reality, citing past violence and a recent shooting in Texas.
