Public

every time I explain to my coworkers that a social media influencer from out of town has convinced the Trump administration that the Portland police are antifa, they look at me like I've sprouted a second head www.theverge.com/policy/81340...

But the police very soon had much bigger fish to fry, as out-of-state influencers swooped in to get in on the content-rich environs of the Portland ICE facility. On October 2nd, local police arrested Nick Sortor of Washington, DC, on suspicion of disorderly conduct. After Sortor was released the following morning, he told his 1.2 million followers on X that he had spoken to Attorney General Pam Bondi. (Bondi later opened an investigation into the Portland police.) Sortor, who was also invited to Trump’s roundtable on “antifa,” went on to publicly attack the Portland Police Bureau for being “Antifa-infiltrated,” an allegation that the Trump administration appears to be taking seriously — the word of an influencer being, apparently, much weightier than the thin blue line.
