So, the Federal Police in Portland are being paid by who?

Asking for a friend!

I just heard a guy at the truck stop say that it is not costing us any money to protect his(Trump’s) government buildings! Fox News was on showing the protesters and police! The guy blurted out “Trump is doing the right thing to protect us from violent people and it won’t cost the citizens any money”.

I have learned to just ignore ignorant people and he is one of them!

1. It would be interesting to see if the House defunds Homeland Security "federal protection group"

Eric Prinz and blackwater would be very upset...

2. The Trump campaign? Forgivable PPP loans? Misdirected Congressional funds?

Who the fuck knows, there's so much GD grifting going on.

3. Eric Prince's privatized mercenary Hessian army of jackbooted storm troopers,...

.... are King trDumpie's free pass to circumvent the Posse Comitatus Act and shit all over the US Constitution in denying US citizens proper access to the 1st Amendment to assemble, to protest, and free speech.

4. Depends what he means by "not costing us any money."

Federal employees, federal salaries.

On the other hand, they're staff that would be on the payroll anyway, so it's probably not costing us any additional. Or, if so, it's for supplies and such, not payroll. There's going to be some expense involved.
