Portland Parks & Recreation does a lot of things Portlanders love. Over the past five years, it has wanted to do even more.

After two years of brawls, national attention has increased pressure on Ted Wheeler and the police.

In an open letter, Iannarone criticizes the mayor for failing to live up to “rhetoric of progressivism.”

Mayor Ted Wheeler says police union president Daryl Turner contributed to a “global frenzy” of misinformation.

Police Chief Danielle Outlaw says: “The mayor never gave us direction to stand down on Saturday, ever.”

The suggestion would appear to target antifascist demonstrators, some of whom wear masks and dress in black to conceal their identities.

The mayor’s office says they received so many “spam” emails the mayor’s inbox has crashed.

County Commissioner Jessica Vega Pederson is weighing a run for mayor and has lost a staffer to the incumbent, Mayor Ted Wheeler.

The unarmed officers will assist sworn police responding to low-priority calls.
