UPDATE: Several attempts were made by this mixed bag of federal officers (Marshals, Border Patrol, HSI) to grab people out of dwindling crowds. At least two people were detained in this manner and both may be released as of this time. Working to confirm.

UPDATE: Today, Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolf issued a statement in defense of the use of these Federal officers on the streets of Portand. https://www.dhs.gov/news/2020/07/16/acting-secretary-wolf-condemns-rampant-long-lasting-violence-portland

It is worth noting that these are the same unaccountable masked officers, who last week while "defending the courthouse" shot a projectile at Donovan Labella, a peaceful protester holding a speaker above his head, fracturing his skull & nearly killing him.

It's also worth noting that Senator @RonWyden is among the many local officials who have asked them to leave. https://twitter.com/RonWyden/status/1283402120562171904?s=20
