Portland Police Stand By As Armed Alt-Right Protesters and Antifascists Brawl

Approximately 300 protesters occupied the front of Portland's downtown Justice Center yesterday afternoon, from 12-2 pm. They bore flags, shouted chants, and held shields. But they were not the usual social instigators the city has seen over the past 86 days of civil unrest, in response to the Minneapolis police killing of George Floyd.

Soon, Oregon will have its own sixth man thanks to a growing population, the state has earned an additional seat in the U.S. House of Representatives one more than its current five.  Whoever enters the race for Oregon’s sixth congressional district ought to keep a “sixth-man” mentality in mind: accountable to the people of their district, not their party; focused on being a great public servant, not a politician; selfless when it comes to making the choice that’s best for their re-election or the one that’s best for their constituents.
