Oregon is still waiting for a court to decide whether or not President Trump can send National Guard troops into Portland. But as that battle plays out in court, the fight for Americans’ hearts and minds continues in South Portland.
On one side are conservative media personalities and streamers, who’ve been granted eye-popping access to Trump administration officials as they broadcast a vision of ongoing protests as violent and dangerous.

On the latest episode of OPB Politics Now, reporters Dirk VanderHart, Alejandro Figueroa and Erik Neumann discuss those competing visions.
