Acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf Criticized for His Handling of Protests in Portland

https://heavy.com/news/2020/07/chad-wolf/


Chad Wolf is the acting Secretary of Homeland Security. The department’s recent handling of the protests in Portland, Oregon has drawn criticism and put Wolf in the media spotlight.

Representative Veronica Escobar called out Wolf on Twitter on July 17 after he defended the Department of Homeland Security in an interview with Fox News. Escobar said Wolf’s interview showed “extraordinary vanity and arrogance” and asked him to resign.

This came after the Department of Homeland Security was questioned about the legitimacy of its deployment of federal agents to Portland. Viral videos show federal officers arresting protestors in unmarked vehicles, which prompted the U.S. Attorney for the Oregon District Billy J. Williams to call for an investigation into the arrests, according to CNN.

I'm all for doxxing the agents who can be identified. They are using violence against American citizens and they should suffer the consequences.
