The congressman noted the city is heavily involved in far-left violence by Antifa and Black Lives Matter who also threaten federal buildings.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, Antifa rioters set fires and smashed windows inside the Mark O. Hatfield U.S. Courthouse. Officers with the Federal Protective Service, who were deployed to the city by the Trump administration during the height of the violence last year, eventually managed to restore \u201cnormalcy.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Oregon?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Oregon<\/a> | Federal officers on Thursday repeatedly drove demonstrators away from the Mark O.

Ngo pointed out that Antifa is well-funded and organized. Additionally, he noted that Joe Biden\u2019s inaction speaks for itself.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I went on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SkyNewsAust?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@SkyNewsAust<\/a> to discuss how <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Antifa?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Antifa<\/a> extremists have forced me to flee Portland, Ore. following months &amp; months of continued death threats &amp; visits to my family&#8217;s home.
