"Portland and Oregon law enforcement, at the direction of local leaders, have refused to aid ICE officers facing relentless terrorist assault and threats to life. (There are more local law enforcement officers in Oregon than there are guns and badges in the FBI nationwide). This is an organized terrorist attack on the federal government and its officers, and the deployment of troops is an absolute necessity to defend our personnel, our laws, our government, public order and the Republic itself."
"Earlier in the day, Miller also posted a wild attack on the left, writing, The issue before is now is very simple and clear. There is a large and growing movement of leftwing terrorism in this country. It is well organized and funded. And it is shielded by far-left Democrat judges, prosecutors and attorneys general. The only remedy is to use legitimate state power to dismantle terrorism and terror networks."
U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut blocked the president's National Guard deployment in Portland, writing that the nation follows Constitutional law, not martial law, and warning that the order risked blurring civil and military authority. Stephen Miller responded on social media, calling the ruling a "legal insurrection" and asserting that the president, as commander-in-chief, must defend federal personnel. Miller accused Portland and Oregon law enforcement of refusing to aid ICE amid alleged terrorist assaults, described protests as organized attacks on federal officers, and argued troop deployment was necessary. His posts drew widespread condemnation from commentators concerned about dangerous rhetoric.
