"At the request of Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, I have asked Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to provide him with all the troops necessary to protect Portland, devastated by the war, and to protect any facility that the ICE has under siege from attacks by Antifa and other national terrorists," Trump said on the Truth Social platform.

In this way, the Presidentof the United States seeks to counter the protests against a detention centre of theImmigration and Customs Control Service (ICE).

These protests originated from two reasons, one because the U.S. declared it a terrorist group, the Antifa movement, and the other because of the shooting at a ICE center in Dallas, where two immigrants were killed and two others injured.

The Mayor of Portland and the Governor of Oregon, both Democrats, refused to deploy their troops.
