The complaint argues that while federal law allows federal officials to protect federal property, the heavily militarized agents who have responded in Portland have gone too far.

A small segment of the demonstrators have shot large fireworks or thrown other projectiles over a fence protecting the federal courthouse. Several agents were injured over the weekend, including one who suffered burns, authorities said.

“These are attacks on federal officers protecting fed property,” acting Homeland Security Deputy Secretary Ken Cuccinelli tweeted Monday. “Anyone who tells you otherwise is willfully ignoring the facts or lying.” Lawsuits have also been filed on behalf of journalists and legal observers and on behalf of medics who have treated injured protesters. U.S. District Judge Michael Simon has ordered the agents not to target or disperse journalists or legal observers at the protests. The federal government is due to respond Tuesday to the lawsuit on behalf of the medics.

ACCUSATIONS!!!! No proof is needed...

This crowed is stupid...

No!!!! The thugs have gone to far 😡

Whose taking care of their children

When are the arrests of thumps goon squads going to start. America wants to know who they are.

Operation Legend is about deploying federal troops to protect vulnerable, law abiding citizens who are being pushed aside and attacked by a select, violent few. It’s meant to restore public safety, protect our children, and bring violent rioters and anarchists to justice.

More AbuseOfPower!

You need to perform the wall of moms on your own children. You have failed in your teachings about protest. Destruction of property is never acceptable.

Wake up America

Baloney- Schumer, and Pelosi have brought this country to its knees... everyone owes someone- looks like John Lewis is the only one in the house with any class!

lol, i guess the protesters haven't gone far enough from destroying, looting & vandalism property, moms should be ashamed

The RIOTERS have gone to far ! Trump2020

I complain they’ve not gone far enough.

Negative, these home terrorist have gone too far! Time to jail them and bring back law ,order and peace !

GFY

Let the city burn then!

Get back in the kitchen moms

No! They haven’t gone far enough, if they had all this BS would be over and these RIOTERS (not protesters) would be put away!!

Move the protest away from federal property so federal agents can’t intervene and peaceful protests without riot gear can continue to promote Black Lives Matter. We need to take back control of the conversation and not give any fuel to Trump.

I don’t think far enough

Yup. An overreaction to Molotov cocktails.

Where will the depositions be? I will send 200 dozen donuts for them.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Get off the street, if all your grandmother and mother was after was Women rights then get off the street it's only for your own good.

Hell is too good for Pelosi and Schumer

They are provoking peaceful protesters to get political ads for Trump. Sad to see what this is government has become.

Wall of moms gone astray- Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer the biggest cons in USA history

The rioters and dem support for the rioters as gone to far.

The rioters in Portland have gone too far.

Let’s protect the building rather than the laws it was build to adjudicate. Anybody smarter than a paper sack? I think it’s time to demand this president be impeached so there is no question of fair elections.

Go home. Get a job.

God bless our troops, soldiers, and police who are keeping our country safe.

Sanctuary cities, since when do they care about federal law

Are there videos of them not protecting federal property?

Anarchy has no space in our Democratic Republic... go to Venezuela!

They have not gone far enough. As more and more arrests occur, a picture is being built of who really are the string pullers. Allow time for this all to be deeply understood. Not the time to cry fowl...just yet :)

Awwww This is cute
