The National Guard’s mission of protecting the Capitol from another attack by right-wing insurrectionists was supposed to end this week, but the Department of Defense has allowed an extension of 10 more weeks at the request of Capitol Police. Around 2,300 troops will remain posted at the Capitol, and as we’ve reported, that fence with the razor wire is all but permanent at this point.
Meanwhile, in Portland, far-left extremists have returned to the federal courthouse that was under siege all summer long.
“F— the United States!” Antifa try to break into the federal courthouse in Portland. Federal officials just removed the barricades protecting the building after months of #antifa attacks on the building. Now they’re back again. #PortlandRiots

Federal officers retreat inside during the #antifa attack on the Portland federal courthouse. One of the militants smashed up the glass on the building. The protective barrier that had been erected since last year was only just removed. #PortlandRiots pic.twitter.com/NAsCSi0ShH

Footage of #antifa & BLM rioters being pushed back by federal officers after they tried to storm the Mark O. Hatfield US Courthouse in downtown Portland. They taunt the officers, telling them to shoot. #PortlandRiots pic.twitter.com/bJLJQ7SdgN

Also, as the Post-Millennial reports, protesters opposed to the Line 3 pipeline from Alberta, Canada to Wisconsin because it would be built on Native American land had a gun pulled on them as they surrounded a Chase bank that was already boarded up.

Has there been a single rightwing demonstration at all since the Capitol Riot? https://t.co/avGOyY1iCZ

There was going to be that militia incursion on March 4 that never materialized but sent Congress home for their safety.

Portland needs to deal with it's Antifa problem before it's too late.
— Adam (@LindhAdam) March 12, 2021
Standard Antifa behavior:
1. Pick fight
2. Cops show up
3. Claim victimhood
4. Repeat— ToddHundleyStan☦???? (@ToddHundleyFan) March 11, 2021
Uh-oh … we just realized if we publish these posts from Andy Ngo we might be kicked out of Mumford & Sons. It’s worth the risk, though.
It’s so bizarre watching the guards stand there and allow their building to be vandalized. Something very perverse is happening.

@POTUS What are you doing about this city?

So since it’s during the day time is it considered terrorism?
— Castor Troy (@Castor_Troy__) March 11, 2021
IS IT DAY TIME OR NIGHT TIME ???
Because if this is at day time then it is terrorism???
Just wanna remember the rules…

President Biden still thinks that Antifa is “just an idea.” It’s nothing more than being opposed to fascism.
Thank god we have troops at the Capitol though!

According to the left, this is not a big deal. May as well just let them inside. #BidensAmerica

Why are they not being arrested for insurrection?
— #NotMyPresident (@rbeezy3636) March 11, 2021
Hmmmm… sounds a lot like an act or instance of revolting against civil authority or an established government…
— Gulag Inmate 888 (@statsandlogic) March 12, 2021
I’d say arrest every one of them but the legal system would let them go without prosecution.

But remember, when the same National Guard troops that Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently praised were going to be deployed to stop these riots, they were called “Trump’s stormtroopers.” Now they’re her personal security force.
