I’m hesitant to call attention to this
Someone sent me via DM
Before I RT’d this
-I called the Mayor’s office to verify, I was told
“the Mayor did NOT request Federal Assistance”
-I then called the OR Gov’s office, I was told
“we are aware of...”
Therefore it seems IMPORTANT https://twitter.com/sparrowmedia/status/1283436911307218948

Here's your supplemental thread & subthread
Even if this was a “lawful” detainment it is unacceptable that law enforcement is in paramilitary uniforms and refused to identify themselves
I sent the thread & video to the appropriate members of Congress https://twitter.com/File411/status/1268186054693203969?s=20

I am also inclined to believe this is real - aside from my own due diligence and personally calling

What gives me just a little bit of concern/pause is the 20 second video was shot & uploaded by - I’m sorry if that offends people but that’s what made me hesitant
I am NOT defending the Fed LE who shot the man in his head - now has a skull fracture

I’m going to warn you, the video in this local NBC affiliate is much longer
Very difficult to watch -that’s me trying to set aside my bias for Ngõ
Mayor: Federal agent who shot Portland protester with crowd control weapon 'escalated' tensions http://www.kgw.com/article/news/local/protests/protester-shot-in-the-head-at-portland-demonstration-video-shows/283-6896c33a-37c0-4a96-aaa8-446b408b6475 via @KGWNews

As much as I did NOT want to believe what happened in Portland & unmarked Vans
I’m now at a 99% confidence that it’s NOT a Hoax or FAKE.
Federal Law Enforcement Use Unmarked Vehicles To Grab Protesters Off Portland Streets https://www.opb.org/news/article/federal-law-enforcement-unmarked-vehicles-portland-protesters/#.XxD9NsqwGfE.twitter

And this from the Mayor of Portland‘s “official” account https://twitter.com/tedwheeler/status/1283892734063861761?s=20
For those, especially for those who said the video is “fake”;
“Video shot by O’Shea and provided to OPB shows a dark screen as O’Shea narrates the scene. Metadata from the video confirms the time and place of the protesters’ account“

So when trying to figure out truth from fiction - I tend to gravitate towards data that can’t be manipulated. Hence why the “meta data” seemed important to me.
If I were a reporter, I would FOIA the CourtHouse “bay” video (courthouses underground)

If the Federal Courthouse pulls the FOIA exemption (which they might), alternative route is
see the tiny red box? That’s the courthouse complex
see the bigger red box? Those are various commercial buildings.
It will take work, you might be able to piece a video timeline together

And when I say Courthouse “bay” most Fed Courthouses have an underground
This is where the USMS transport defendants & prisoners to/from.
So my use of “bay” is a colloquiums aka shorthand
in summary it happened & it’s real

I will say this @USMarshalsHQ co-locates in almost all Fed Courthouses. which is completely normal given the transport defendants & prisoners.
What is interesting is in today’s article both USMS & DHS comment but no comment
whispers it’s probably DHS

Do you kind of understand why I tracked down statement/letter?
in which @DHS_Wolf let his mask slip to release he’s an obsequious “yes SIR @realDonaldTrump your wish is my command“
Pathetic trying to justify his orders down the DHS chain

Working theory (yes of course be skeptical)
Trump knows as CiC he abused that power w/ the Lafayette FUBAR
Someone (likely AG Barr) told him to use DHS & other Civ Law enforcement agencies, they are not bound by Posse Comitatus Act nor Insurrection Act https://twitter.com/File411/status/1268186054693203969?s=20

Literally the only explanation that keeps coming up Trump using Civilian LE
and given the leaked “dominate” June 1, 2020 call with State Governors. The Lafayette FUBAR. The recent “we handled Portland very strongly“ it’s the only thing that makes sense https://twitter.com/File411/status/1269315661546823686?s=20
