Trump sent federal officers into Portland to quell riots five years ago. A tired city — watching events in LA — hopes it won’t happen again.

Tens of thousands have gathered in downtown Portland for a "No Kings" rally on Saturday to protest the Trump administration ahead of a Washington military parade marking the Army’s 250th anniversary as well as the president’s birthday.

Tens of thousands of Portlanders marched across the Willamette River this afternoon in a show of numbers aimed at opposing President Donald Trump’s deportation campaign and mocking his birthday celebration.

Top Portland and Multnomah County leaders, law enforcement officials and several community leaders stood together Friday in advance of large planned protests to decry the immigration policies of the federal administration and affirm the laws in place to protect immigrants.

A few hundred protesters gathered in Freeport as the morning began, while larger demonstrations are expected later in Portland, Augusta, Lewiston-Auburn and elsewhere.

With protests over immigration enforcement raids, as well as planned demonstrations against President Trump over the weekend happening locally and nationwide, Portland city and county leaders addressed the community Friday morning.

Contingents of protestors gathered outside the Otay Mesa Detention Center and in Oceanside on Friday, calling for an end to recent U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested four people on Thursday, describing them as “aggressive protesters.” The U.S. Department of Homeland Security said in a press release the four were caught on video damaging federal property and threatening to assault federal agents and officers.
