In Portland, Oregon, USA, it was reported that there was a clash between anti-racist protesters and supporters of President Donald Trump, while one person was shot dead. There was a clash between the two groups when anti-racists who had been protesting for more than 3 months in Portland and those in the convoy of about 600 vehicles formed to support Trump.
In the footage, Trump supporters were seen shooting at protesters with paintball guns from their vehicles, and protesters responded by throwing various objects. According to eyewitnesses, nearly 1,000 Trump supporters tried to stop the protesters with barricades. During the fight, one person was shot in the chest. The deceased is allegedly wearing a hat bearing the sign of the far-right group Patriot Prayer, and the connection of the incident to the dispute between the two groups is being investigated. The Associated Press news agency photojournalist at the scene said he heard 3 shots and that the deceased was white. However, the police did not share the victim’s identification or any suspicious information.

Portland is the center of protests against racism and police violence that began with the police murder of George Floyd in the city of Minneapolis on May 25 and continued for more than 3 months. In its report published on August 21, the Portland Police Bureau announced that 83 night-time protests have been held in the city to date, and more than 500 people have been arrested in protests that were the scene of violence. Federal troops had previously been dispatched to the city “to prevent violence,” but later withdrew. Following this latest incident, the Trump administration announced that federal forces could be dispatched again.
In the city of Kenosha, after the police shot seven times at an unarmed black man named Jacob Blake, protests in the country revived. Meanwhile, it was revealed that Jacob Blake was paralyzed from the waist down and found it very difficult to walk again.

TRUMP SUPPORT VISIT
US President Donald Trump said of the Portland demonstrations: “The city ruled by Democrats has become the center of arson, extortion, violence and looting.” Describing the protesters as ‘looters’, Trump will go to the city of Kenosha tomorrow to support the local police. In the statement made by the White House, it was indicated that Trump will meet with the security forces and assess the damage in the city. American Democrats react to Trump’s plan to visit Kenosha. “Trump’s visit only makes things worse,” said Democratic Congresswoman Karen Bass. “This visit is going to add fuel to the fire,” he said.
‘THE FBI WILL ARREST THEM’
Senator Rand Paul, who attended US President Donald Trump’s speech at the White House to officially recognize the Republican Party’s presidential nomination last Friday night, claimed he was attacked on the way out. During Trump’s speech, a group of protesters who held an “anti-racist and anti-police” rally surrounded Paul and his wife as they left the White House and shouted slogans. “I was just attacked by a group of over a hundred people a block from the White House,” Paul said on Twitter after the incident. “I am grateful to the DC police who literally saved our lives.” Overwhelmed by Democrats who advocated cutting funding for law enforcement agencies, Paul said: “We cannot stand Joe Biden running our country and eliminating the police. We cannot safely walk the streets of the capital Washington DC, ”he said, demanding that the protesters be arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). President Trump has said that they will present medals to the police who protect Senator Paul.

‘WE HAVE NO ROLE IN THE ELECTION PROCESS’
In a statement to members of Congress, US Chief of Staff Mark Milley said that the military would have no role in the 59th presidential election process on November 3 or in the event of a possible disagreement over the election results. In response to a written question from Democratic Congressmen Elissa Slotkin and Mikie Sherrill, Milley made an assessment of the US military’s position in the event of any dispute over the election results. Emphasizing that the military will firmly uphold its constitutionally apolitical stance, Milley said: “In the event of any electoral dispute, the US courts and Congress will legally resolve the disputes, not the US military. I do not foresee any role for the US military in this process, we will not turn our back on the Constitution. ” The surge in demand for vote-by-mail due to the pre-election corona epidemic is sparking a debate between President Donald Trump and Democrats that “elections can be rigged.”
