Leftist agitators rioted in the streets of Portland Wednesday night, smashing windows at the Democratic Party headquarters.

Hundreds of people associated with the leftist organization antifa gathered around 2 p.m. Wednesday, two hours after President Biden's inauguration ceremony, and marched to the Democratic Party headquarters and began smashing windows, according to KOIN 6 News.

"To those gathered near the Democratic Party of Oregon Portland Headquarters: Members of this group have been observed damaging the building," the Portland Police Bureau tweeted. "Anyone who is involved in criminal behavior including: vandalism and graffittiing is subject to arrest or citation."

Several journalists posted video from the scene showing the destruction of the building.

"The Democratic Party Of Oregon building was vandalized moments go by an Antifa group in Portland Oregon," the Daily Caller's Jorge Ventura tweeted. "The group gathered at Revolution Hall and blocked roads off as they made their way towards the building."

Journalist Andy Ngo posted videos of antifa members attacking a police officer and flipping over a car.

Comment: More carnage in Portland and Seattle; from RT:

Left-wing rioters have gathered in Seattle and Portland to burn flags, break windows, and destroy property just hours after Democrat President Joe Biden was inaugurated. Their right-wing counterparts, however, were absent.

Groups of black-clad Antifa rioters took to the streets in Portland and Seattle, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake as they protested against the inauguration of President Joe Biden along with their usual targets, law enforcement and racism.

In Seattle, demonstrators set multiple American flags on fire as they blocked traffic and defaced property on Wednesday night.

Photos posted by the Seattle Police Department and others on the ground showed extensive graffiti and broken glass at several locations.

At least two of the rioters were arrested for property damage and assault.

Meanwhile, over 100 rioters descended on Portland, wreaking havoc and destroying property just a few hours after Biden's inauguration ceremony. The so-called "J20 Protest" was advertised as an anti-Biden, anti-police event also aimed at supporting indigenous people's rights, according to local ABC affiliate KATU.

The group targeted the Democratic Party of Oregon building for special destruction, breaking windows, spray painting graffiti (including "anarchy" symbols and a "F**k Biden"), and overturning dumpsters. Some held signs with slogans including "We are ungovernable," "A new world from the ashes," and "We don't want Biden - we want revenge."

Portland police told local media they arrested eight people on charges including rioting, reckless burning, possession of a destructive device, and criminal mischief. There were at least two other post-inauguration protests scheduled for Wednesday.

Despite widespread hype about Trump supporters plotting to overtake state capitals on Wednesday, however, law enforcement agencies detailed to the Oregon Capitol building reportedly encountered more journalists than angry conservatives.

Not to worry. Biden and Harris will surely bail out any Antifa protestors arrested. Or was that only while Trump was president?

Well, this will be the best revolution ever if I get to just sit here and watch my enemies destroy each other. I was planing on getting my Vulcan 1600 polished up and ready to scoot. I'd like to render myself available to serve if given the chance. I love this land, but I'm no fan of the occupancy. This is better, probably. Let the filthy cities burn themselves down.

Problem is and has been, the cities make laws for everybody. These riots will set up an excuse for expanded police power and justify military reinforcement which will then be used on the public at large and in flyover states that have none of these idiotic democrat issues...if there are any of those left. IDK.

Oddly, instead of increasing police presence the trend has been to cut back and defund. I suppose it's for a reason. Maybe because they want all the old guard out and then replaced with the new guard, a loyal commie guard with re-educated ratz'n boots who know a proper goose step.

But this isn't insurrection even if pantifa says it is because they don't support Trump. Look out comrade Joe, your pitbull has slipped the leash.

Notice that these malevolent fucks* always do this shit in states with draconian gun laws.

What is insane is how anyone can still buy into the govs' claims that we need more cops because of anything supposed conservatives/Trumpists supposedly say, while ignoring what these asswipes actually do . It is so patently transparent to anyone with an open mind and a 6th grade education! ARGH!

As BBub wisely noted at infra:

The left screaming 'de-fund the police' has turned into 'fund the secret police'.

“BREAKING: Leftist ‘organization’ vandalized a leftist headquarters whilst graffitiing ‘F&#@ Biden’ just 2 days after Q-Anons and Trumpers begin waking up to the reality of an increasingly solidified Trump-less era!” Let’s see who they voted for, then tell me they are Antifer.

Democratic Party of Oregon Portland Headquarters ... Sounds like a private business to me, the public should be able to do whatever they want to a private business, no need for law enforcement or government to intervene

I guess the Pantifa freaks have buyers remorse...I'm kind of liking the #FvckBiden meme...maybe that could be our new national anthem...

With friends like these the Dims don't really need enemies, do they?

I see only peaceful protesters harassed by the police and Democratic Party headqarters.

Leaked? Hacked? Who gives a fuck?! As long as it's truth, that is all that matters.
