"On Friday, US District Court Judge Karin Immergut heard arguments over a proposed emergency restraining order that would stop President Trump (AKA King Dipshit) from deploying the Oregon National Guard into Portland. After hearing from both sides, on Saturday Immergut ruled against Trump, citing that his inflammatory and objectively wrong assertions that Portland is "war ravaged" and that the ICE facility is under attack and must be protected from "antifa and domestic terrorists" were not "conceived in good faith" and "untethered to the facts.""
The Portland Mercury requests small monthly contributions to sustain local newsreporting, arts coverage, an event calendar, and hosted events. Weather will include sunny skies, a high near 75 degrees, and possible showers later in the week. US District Court Judge Karin Immergut denied an emergency restraining order to allow deployment of the Oregon National Guard, finding presidential assertions that Portland is 'war ravaged' and the ICE facility under attack were not conceived in good faith and untethered to the facts. Federal agents at the Portland ICE facility escalated aggressive tactics against protesters, and roughly 400 demonstrators attended Saturday night.
