US President Donald Trump has directed the US Defense Ministry to send soldiers to Portland on Saturday (September 27, 2025). President Trump has taken this step at the behest of US Homeland Security Minister Christie NoM. Trump wrote in a post on social media platform Truth Social that all necessary soldiers should be sent to protect the war -torn American state Portland.

Donald Trump wrote in the post on Truth Social Platform, ‘I am instructing Defense Minister Pete Hegseth to provide all the necessary soldiers to protect the Portland and any of our ice facilities due to the attacks by Antifa and other domestic terrorists and if needed, I am also allowing them to use full strength.

What did Trump do on social media,

President Donald Trump’s statement came at a time when Trump claimed that the crazy people of Portland were trying to burn buildings in the US state.

Trump said, ‘This is a small example, but this is the most violent example. This happens every night and it is being done for many years. You think that perhaps they may have spoken at some point, but what are they doing? But we are going there and we will catch a large number of people who are doing so in Portland. They are provoking people in a professional manner and are anarchist. He is really quite anarchist.

At the same time, in the beginning of September, President Trump described the living in Portland as living in hell and he said that he is planning to send more federal soldiers there. Trump’s plan has come amid federal control over Washington DC and a kind of threats in Chicago and Baltimor states, which he described as part of his comprehensive plan to reduce the rate of crime.
