Trump’s crackdown comes for Portland | The Playbook Podcast

First came Los Angeles. Then, Washington, D.C. Now, President Donald Trump’s ongoing federal crackdown on big cities comes to Portland, Oregon. Last night, the city and state filed suit to block Trump from deploying 200 members of the Oregon National Guard to the City of Roses. But in an era when the confrontation is the point, that’s a fight Trump is perfectly willing to have. Playbook’s Adam Wren and Dasha Burns walk through Trump’s Portland push and what it portends for other major cities. Plus, we’re two days away from a federal government shutdown, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visits the White House today as Trump pushes a new ceasefire plan. ----------------------------------------- Subscribe to our channel! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgjtvMmHXbutALaw9XzRkAg?view_as=subscriber Check out our video catalog: https://www.politico.com/video Follow POLITICO here: ➤ X: https://x.com/politico/ ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/politico/ ➤ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/politico/
