Leftist ‘Count Every Vote’ Protests Descend Into Antifa Violence
‘Count every vote’ protests in Portland and New York City descended into ‘widespread violence’ Wednesday as Antifa thugs smashed windows, set fires and attacked police.
The National Guard has been activated in Portland under a “Unified Command” of the County Sheriff’s Office, the Oregon State Police and the National Guard itself:
Unified Command: 7 p.m. video update. We will be providing video updates throughout the night.
Stay informed.

There were a few workers inside at the time, running to the doors making sure they were locked. @fox12oregon https://t.co/3lTOpxaCmD

We support everyone's right to self-expression, but setting fires puts others at risk and will not be tolerated. We are working to de-escalate the situation near Morton Street in the West Village to prevent further damage from occurring. pic.twitter.com/4nTK6UUBzC
