DHS patrolling Portland in unmarked vans

And what about trump saying Chicago, Oakland and other cities are next? He’s using the federal branch to enforce local laws that’s not the federal governments role. If local cities want to burn let them it’s up to those citizens to be responsible and elect officials that will enforce law and order. If they can’t they can relocate they can move on to somewhere that will. But we don’t need to establish a national police force to control the mobs that’s a dangerous proposition and that’s what trump has openly advocated, “ if the cities won’t I will enforce law and order” 

Again this can be used by others once this precedent is set you might be comfortable with trump doing it would you be as comfortable with Biden or Obama doing it?

The DHS Secretary covered this. There have been laws on the books for decades that allow the Federal Protection Services, which currently protect many sites around the nation, to protect and defend federal properties from attack. This is exactly what they're doing, nothing more. There is no precedent to set, they are merely following existing law. If the city will not provide resources to prevent hundreds of millions of dollars of federal property from being destroyed, then the federal government has an obligation to do so.
