When a public charter school is forced out of its own neighborhood because of chaos and aggression, you know it’s not just a local issue—it’s a national disgrace. In the liberal haven of Portland, anarchists run wild near the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) headquarters, wreaking havoc on the community. Why do they target ICE, you ask? Because for the radical left, attacking institutions that uphold America’s borders is just another day at the office. But once again, it’s the innocents who pay the price—not the lawbreakers.
Portland’s answer to the iron grip of lawlessness? Hand over the keys to the inmates. As radical factions lay siege to public spaces, dragging them through the muck with nightly rampages, who picks up and leaves? The good people, of course. Families. Students. Every day, Americans are trying to live their lives. Meanwhile, anarchy takes root. Less a schoolyard now, Cottonwood School’s grounds are a circus of pandemonium—a hub for lawless gatherings, where the wine flows and the rulebook goes out the window.

Let’s talk about the elephant in the room. Why, in a city with law enforcement, does this madness continue? Well, it’s simple: Portland’s leadership is about as effective as a screen door on a submarine. The folks in charge keep watching their city crumble like a stale cookie while turning a blind eye. Better yet, they act only when the big, bad federal government steps in—Thank you, Mr. President. What does it say when local leadership only seems to find its spine with Washington’s arm up its backside?
It’s almost laughable how these leaders are missing in action, letting Antifa run the show. They turn away as anarchist supply lines are bustling with activity, goods flowing like a municipal water line. Body cams, gas masks, and who knows what else are funneled like a kid’s lemonade stand on a hot summer day. The brazen nerve of these radicals is flabbergasting. But don’t hold your breath waiting for any serious repercussions. Instead, it’s often the good journalists who get hauled off, censured for doing what the officials won’t—highlighting the real antagonists.
The situation leaves us with a burning question: What will it take for these leaders to finally act in the interest of their citizens? Their constituents didn’t vote for chaos, rebellion, or lawlessness. No, they voted for safety, peace, and sanity—values the spineless left seems all too happy to ignore. Until the so-called progressives running Portland decide to step up instead of stepping aside, it’ll just remain another American city betrayed by its own leadership.
