Conservative influencer gets arrested at PDX Ice facility last night

“PORTLAND, Ore. — Nick Sortor, a conservative influencer who has been posting videos to social media of clashes outside the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in South Portland this week, was arrested late Thursday night during a protest outside the facility, police said.
Sortor was among three people arrested by the Portland Police Bureau (PPB) for second-degree disorderly conduct, after police said officers saw multiple fights break out. Sortor was released from jail Friday morning.
The conservative influencer made multiple social media posts Friday morning about the arrest, in which he accused PPB of corruption, saying they're controlled by antifa. He also warned PPB to "lawyer up."
Sortor said in a post that U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi called him personally Friday morning to say that she had ordered a full investigation, led by Assistant U.S. Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon, into the Portland Police Bureau and Sortor's arrest.”



Looks like they’re trying everything to create a situation for Trump to call in the military .
