There's nothing to worry about Mills Bomb. It's perfectly normal presidential stuff to call in the military after Portlands mayor ordered police NOT to arrest protestors, including illegal aliens, for breaking the law because arresting illegal aliens could violate the cities sanctuary city status.

I'd have to agree with this decision ...
The FBI has fired agents who were photographed kneeling during a racial justice protest in Washington that followed the 2020 death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police officers, three people familiar with the matter said Friday.
The bureau last spring had reassigned the agents but has since fired them, said the people, who insisted on anonymity to discuss personnel matters with The Associated Press.
The number of FBI employees terminated was not immediately clear, but two people said it was roughly 20.

I’m curious what due process was applied in firing them? Was it disciplinary? Performance? This will definitely be challenged in court, I’m curious whether the firings will hold up.I'd have to agree with this decision ...

Sounds like at the time and in the moment that was a tactical decision to deescalate. That likely means it was a decision taken by someone at the supervisory level.
I don’t think anyone can plausibly claim there’s not an obvious potential political motive in the firings. Firing someone generates records and communications. Discovery on this one could be spicy.

This. Despite the at will nature of most US workplaces, you still can only be fired for legal reasons, and there is a very high bar applied to dismissal for gross misconduct.
I suspect there’s a fair bit of rules/law around federal employment which FBI falls under.

One extreme, now opposed by what some regard as another extreme.
Normies outnumber revolutionary vanguards as long as the power to choose extremes exists at the ballot box.

Why American Travelers Cos-Playing as Canadians Is So Cringe
My fellow Americans, do not put a Canadian flag on your backpack. It's pathetic, embarrassing, and in fact deeply un-American.

There's over 10 million people illegally living in the USA, probably more realistically over 15 million.
The Trump administration has deported about 100,000 to maybe 200,000 according to various sources.
I would really like to hear a convincing argument of why it's necessary to go into Democrat cities right now. They haven't even scratched the surface, not even 1% of the illegals have been deported under Trump.
Considering how few illegals they've actually managed to deport so far, why doesn't Trump focus on deporting illegals from the red states? Those are the people who voted for them to be removed. If these illegals are really such dangerous criminals, would you not focus on removing them from the cities where your voter base lives in order to keep them safe?
This would be like if Bloc Québécois won a federal election and then banned symbols like crosses, hijabs, turbans, and yarmulkes nationwide, but then focused on enforcing the ban by sending the RCMP to New Brunswick first, all while the symbols continue to be worn in mass in Quebec.
Kinda seems to me like its BS and there's really no reason to go there right now.

It's easier and more effective to put on shows that encourage people to self-deport than to go through the (expensive, time-consuming) processes required to forcibly deport them. The saltier the show, the more impact it has.

You forgot “When the Dems did it, it was worse”.

So where between "let the rioters riot" and "call out the army" is the preferred position?

It was a facetious comparison of the last time the Dems sent the military into a city for “reasons”. Like when apologists for the current iteration of the Republican Party say Hunter Biden’s laptop > the classified documents squirrelled away in a bathroom, election racketeering in Georgia, an attempt to overturn an election, an attempt to extort another country to announce an investigation into a political opponent, covering up relationships with foreign agents involved in messing with the election, etc. ad infinitum.

Ive seen some reports saying 400,000 and others saying up to 2 million people between forced and voluntary deportions.
People are there illegally.
Trump has talked about going after Democrat cities. New York, LA, Chicago. Typical posturing playing to his supporters.
In practice he isn't targeting Democrat cities specifically. The deportions are everywhere equally.
As for Portland, watch videos about how the residents feel about the antifa protestors.
