Portland standoff: State asks federal agents to be reined in

The motion for a temporary restraining order asks U.S. District Court Judge Michael Mosman to command agents from the Department of Homeland Security, the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol, the Federal Protective Service and the U.S. Marshals Service to immediately stop detaining protesters without probable cause, to identify themselves and their agency before arresting anyone, and to explain why an arrest is taking place.

Well this is good. Mike Mosman is a good judge. I’m happy to follow his lead as to the legality of this, ah, occurrence.
