U.S. President Donald Trump has authorized the deployment of troops to Portland, Oregon, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facilities across the country. This move extends his controversial practice of using military forces domestically, citing threats from Antifa and other "domestic terrorists."

• President Donald Trump authorized troops for Portland and ICE Facilities.
• The deployment follows similar actions in Los Angeles and Washington, overriding local Democratic leadership.
• Trump stated on his Truth Social platform that Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, requested the deployment from Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to protect "war ravaged Portland" and ICE Facilities under "siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists."
• He also authorized "Full Force, if necessary," without further specification.
• This decision comes amidst ongoing protests at ICE facilities due to Trump's crackdown on undocumented migrants and follows a fatal shooting at an ICE facility in Texas and the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
