The Trump administration’s smear campaign against the victim was quickly repeated by supporters on social media. Nick Sortor, one of a group of right-wing influencers camped out in Minneapolis to cover ICE’s campaign there, falsely referred to Pretti as an “illegal alien” and added that he “was armed with a gun and attempted to PULL IT on agents as he was being apprehended.”

MULTCO DA: We Agree With The MAGA People Who Do The Bomb Threats And Stuff, It Is Wrong To Prosecute Violent Chuds Who Travel To Portland With The Intent To Assault People And Start Fights In Our Streets

A right-wing journalist and influencer arrested at a Portland immigration protest acted in self defense and will not be prosecuted, a senior deputy district attorney determined.

The arrest sparked a political maelstrom, drawing condemnation from President Donald Trump’s press secretary and prompting the U.S. Department of Justice to probe whether local officers have engaged in “viewpoint discrimination.”

...
BTW Sortor assaulted people again last night while shoving his way into a medic tent set up by anti-ICE protesters.

DHS: It's Illegal To Arrest A Chud Even If They're Starting Fights In The Street

Months of demonstrations outside Portland’s immigration detention facility have escalated since Trump said last week he was sending federal troops to the city, which he described as “War ravaged.” Police made a few arrests late Thursday after fights broke out in the crowd, including of conservative influencer Nick Sortor on a disorderly conduct charge.

On Friday, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said the agency would send additional federal agents and the Justice Department was launching a civil rights investigation into the circumstances surrounding Sortor’s arrest, and whether the Portland Police Bureau engages in viewpoint discrimination.

Nick Sortor's arrest fuels tensions in Portland protests

Five years after protests roiled Portland, Oregon, the city known for civil disobedience is again at the center of a political maelstrom as it braces for the arrival of federal troops promised by President Donald Trump. The arrest of conservative influencer Nick Sortor by Portland police late Thursday at a protest is escalating tensions. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem says she will send additional federal agents to Portland, and the Justice Department is launching a civil rights investigation into his arrest. A federal judge is also expected to rule on whether to block 200 National Guard members from deploying there.
