The Feds should just subtract it from any federal funding that Portland receives.

Aaaaand a judge just blocked it and ordered that the payments go through as previously authorized. And the beancounters will process it

Feds should fine Portland for every microsecond the court house is under assault.

CPU Cycles Matter.

Id bill them for damage to the building, plus the extra man hours, OT, lodging, medical and let injured sue for pain and suffering

Are we even really a country anymore, if this is what passes for local government? We are fragmenting before our eyes

The question to ask is, "what records are kept at the courthouse that they want burned down so badly?"

A Portland Councilwoman, Chloe Eudaly, who is the transportation commissioner of @PBOTinfo , is using her position to charge the feds 500 bucks every 15 minutes the fence remains up. Currenty bill is roughly 200k

Can the feds just tell her to fuck off and keep it anyway? It's THEIR fault they have the fence up in the first place since the local government refuses to protect the courthouse themselves.

We need to ask her if she will also fine all of those "peaceful protestors" for not getting a permit for protesting on public roads.

if anything feds would divert funds from the state to this city.

The rest of the state gets fucked because she's on a power trip

LOL. Federal tab for services rendered: $3 trillion. The fence can stay a few millennia.

That's like sending a bill to China for you getting a shitty TV set. It has no bearing. It's just for a bitch to feel important.

They are stupid enough to think it will be paid.

Hey moron...you're not fining 'them' you would be fining us...as in your own residents - who are already picking up the tab for the other shit you didn't stop. So, bask in your glory and pay your fine. Maybe her neighbors would like to know why she is stealing from them for a publicity stunt.

This dumb cunt doesn't understand the law at all and she's an elected official.

Hey Chloe, the same principle of qualified immunity that prevents all of us from suing your stupid ass also prevents you from suing the Federal government.

Also nothing stops the Federal Government from using the principle of eminent domain to seize all the land around the courthouse needed to improve the security (this happen everywhere after 9/11 so they could install concrete barriers).

So keep pushing and I'm sure that will end up as a best way for the Feds to settle the fencing issue.

Wonder who will compel payment of that fine? There is always a bigger government.

Take their "bill" amount out of any federal money the state gets.
