Trump says authorizing troop deployment in Portland

President Donald Trump on Saturday authorized the deployment of troops in the northwestern U.S. city of Portland and at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facilities, extending his contentious domestic use of the military.

"At the request of Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, I am directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland, and any of our ICE Facilities under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.

"I am also authorizing Full Force, if necessary," he added, without specifying what "full force" meant.
