HomeNews WirePresident Trump Expertly Takes Radical Portland's District Attorney Out Of The Equation Dealing a Massive Blow to Rioters Editor September 7, 2020 President Trump is making some killer political moves right now. One of the best came last week. Rioting is continuing to take place in Portland and the prosecuting attorneys keep dropping charges against the people who are committing crimes and being arrested. I can't imagine how aggravating that is for the police, the business owners, and residents not just in Portland, but around the country. Multnomah County District Attorney Mike Schmidt flat out said that he wouldn’t prosecute protesters arrested for lesser offenses, but it looks like they're not prosecuting much of anything. “We continue to prioritize public safety resources in Multnomah County by focusing on the violent crimes occurring at protests and in our community, including the recent and alarming increase in gun violence this summer,” Schmidt said. Oregon State Police are sending in federally deputized troopers to respond to protest-related violence in Portland — effectively circumventing the Multnomah County DA's office, which OSP has criticized in the past for not prioritizing prosecutions. — Deborah Bloom (@deborahebloom) September 1, 2020 This means state troopers can now crack down on protestors in Portland knowing they'll likely face harsher punishment from the US Attorney's Office rather than the local DA. — Deborah Bloom (@deborahebloom) September 1, 2020 Now the Oregon State Police troopers assigned to help the police in Portland have now been cross-deputize by the federal government. This means that the US Attorney’s Office can lodge charges against those arrested by deputized troopers. KGW’s Pat Dorris explained what this means for rioters: “This is basically the ground changing under the feet of the protesters. because when the state police come in and are cross-deputized by the [U.S. Marshals], they’re able to make arrests under the federal law. And I’m told there is something similar to interfering with a police officer under the federal law. [Multnomah County District Attorney Mike Schmidt] will not prosecute someone for that charge, but the U.S. Attorney’s Office has been much more aggressive at holding people accountable and prosecuting for all kinds of charges. So, I think you’re going to see a lot more of that start to happen as soon as these officers arrive.” The significance of this charge is that rioters in Ore. can now be FEDERALLY charged for crimes against state officers. It was reported yesterday @ORStatePolice have been cross-deputized by the federal government. This bypasses @DAMikeSchmidt's catch & release policy. #antifa https://t.co/CXSVMM23py — Andy Ngô (@MrAndyNgo) September 2, 2020 What's worth noting here is that Trump successfully used US government power to stop unrest without enacting the Insurrection Act. It was a phenomenal move that took radicals out of the equation and rocked the rioters. That’s no good. Wonder whether the governor, and Oregon’s congresscritters who generally like to be seen as opposed to a slide into total police-state fascism, will have a problem with this at all, or do anything about it. https://t.co/lPIeaq6L27 — 45th ןǝןןɐɹɐd ʇsıpɹnsqɐ ǝpɐbıɹq (@45thabsurdist) September 1, 2020 Sources: KGW 8 Trending Political News Las Vegas Bookies Have Predicted the Odds of the Election, Here's How They're Taking Bets Bookies in Las Vegas are very good at what they do when it comes to making the odds for bets that they're willing to give action on.
