I asked my boss if I could hang some stuff in my office but he wanted to check the terms of our lease first. So instead I told him I'll just put some stuff on the whiteboard, not touch the walls or anything.
And then I bulldozed the entire building.

Immergut explains that her reasoning and analysis from her first TRO issued yesterday still apply here. There have been no changes in Portland's conditions that justify Trump sending in NG from any state, including from within (as in from Oregon itself).
