“If we go to Portland, we’re going to wipe them out, they’re going to be gone,” President Donald Trump said. “They’ve ruined that city. … What they’ve done to that place, it’s like living in hell.”
‘Like living in hell’: Trump hints Portland could be next city to see National Guard on streets
When asked at a press briefing if he’d decided which city he would deploy troops to next, the president referenced a TV report he saw Thursday about ongoing protests against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Portland.

The Trump Administration has removed significant parts of the constitution from the official government website.
Including Habeas Corpus, the laws entitling you a right to a trial and requiring the government to have a legitimate reason to keep you imprisoned.
