Oregon rescue teams are looking for 22 missing people after the fires have wiped out five towns. News outlets report that fires are not being set, but don’t you find it strange that these “climate change” fires stop at the Canadian border? How does this message help the general public to be attentive to their surroundings?

Facebook said Saturday it would take down erroneous posts claiming anti-fascist activists have been maliciously sparking wildfires in Oregon and other Western states. This determination came after Douglas County Sheriff’s Office warned social media about jumping to faulty conclusions and spreading false rumors. Is there justification to this restriction to freedom of speech?

On September 14 the Scarsdale Antifa tweeted “We and other chapters of Antifa around Oregon have collaborated to ignite fires around the state to draw attention to the climate emergency.”

Also, on September 14, Catherine Herridge posted that according to and internal email @DHSgov obtained by @CBSNews, former Acting Secretary for Intelligence and Analysis, Brian Murphy, wrote colleagues on July 25 that the Portland violence was not “opportunistic” but “organized.” He writes, “We can’t say any longer that this violent situation is opportunistic. Additionally, we have overwhelmingly(sic) intelligence regarding the ideologies driving individuals toward violence…why the violence has continued. A core set of Threat actors are organized and show up night after night, and share common TTPs (Tactics, Techniques and Procedures)…Threat actors who are motivated by Anarchists or ANTIFA (or a combination of both) ideologies to carry out acts of violence against State, Local and Federal authorities.”

The number of arson investigations and arrests are shedding some light on the truth. There have been over 50 arson arrests in the last month in Oregon alone documented by Andy Ngo, reporter. He also points to Mike Schmidt, Multnomah DA, isn’t prosecuting Portland rioters. On August 14, DA Schmidt posted a tweet promoting an interview with his “buddy,” a militant antifa activist. His friend is part of the campaign by communist Angela Davis to defund police, abolish prisons and demand reparations.

While arrests continue, Governor Brown stays firm in blaming “climate change” and claims no responsibility for even the already determined set fires. Shouldn’t she at least warn that arson is a class A felony with big fines and years in prison? It will be telling to see how those arrested will be prosecuted.
