U.S. President Donald Trump has ordered his administration to review federal funding to Portland, Oregon, escalating tensions with the city over ongoing anti-government and anti-fascist protests.
Trump has intensified rhetoric against Portland’s protesters, labeling antifa activists as “domestic terrorists” and deploying soldiers to protect ICE facilities.
Oregon leaders accuse Trump of violating constitutional limits and undermining local governance.
They argue that stripping federal aid would harm ordinary citizens rather than restore order.
The clash highlights growing conflict between the White House and Democratic state leaders over protest movements, immigration, and the use of federal power.
