National Guard Trains for Portland Civil Unrest

Approximately 200-250 National Guard troops in Portland, Oregon, have begun training for civil disturbance response, focusing on defending federal buildings and personnel. This mobilization, ordered by President Trump, is intended to combat "radical left terrorism." While legally permissible under Title 10 to protect federal property, the deployment has drawn criticism from legal experts and opposition from the Oregon governor and attorney general, who views it as unwarranted. The troops are not expected on the streets until next week, as the President declared the National Guard is in place to restore order.
