Portland is safe for a sec more with 2nd restraining order. Even before that Hegseth dreamt about crushing protests against Trump with brute force. The Department of War never says something like that will NOT happen. Trump keeps saying Portland is a war zone because he will turn the city into one.

See p. 5.
