Watch: Noem Is Forcing Portland Mayor’s Hand on Antifa, Promises 4x More Feds if He Won’t Do His Job

As Portland, Oregon — and other blue cities for that matter — continue to be safe havens for crime, the Trump administration promises a fourfold response.
[snip]“I’m so extremely disappointed. He’s continuing to play politics,” Noem said.

“What I told him is that if he did not follow through on some of these security measures for our officers, we were going to cover him up with more federal resources and that we were going to send four times the amount of federal officers here, so that the people of Portland could have some safety.”

The broader issue now is that Democrats cannot get control of their cities.

Whether it be Chicago, Memphis, or Portland, pro-crime policies are senseless and show how far the Democratic Party has devolved.

Contrast Noem with former secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.

Democrats’ Trump Derangement Syndrome runs so deep that they are willing to be pro-crime if it means opposing the president. They cannot fathom finding a terminal value — law and order in this instance — in order to find agreement with Trump.

That would be the ultimate sin against their party’s dogma.

Right now, they look like a bunch of incompetent children fighting with a parent who knows better.
