A violent mob launched fireworks, hurled rocks, and stormed an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Portland Saturday night.
The violent rioters injured multiple police officers and forced federal agents to fight to regain control.
According to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials, the group smashed glass, ignited smoke grenades, and physically broke into the federal building during what they called a “riot,” a term the corporate media has predictably avoided.
“Portland rioters are violently targeting federal law enforcement, and we won’t sit idly by,” said Tricia McLaughlin, Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security.
“You will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
The riot followed a George Soros-funded “No Kings” protest billed as a “free speech” event.
Yet, the so-called “protest” conveniently devolved into anarchist violence targeting ICE, yet again.
At least four federal law enforcement officers were injured as protesters turned violent near the ICE field office in Portland Saturday evening.
The facility was forcibly entered, rocks were thrown, and explosives were launched, according to DHS.
Despite the assault, officers held the line and secured the building by nightfall.
“This wasn’t a protest,” McLaughlin said.
“It was an organized, targeted attack on federal law enforcement.”
