She must be a wimpy democrat.... Good grief.... where do these weak idiots get voters

Làw and order does not apply to the police or our pres. They believe they are above the law. Vote for Trump, u 2 can bé above the law. Trump's law overrides local / state láws. :)

Boo Hoo Hoo DemoPhobic, 😢 💦😢 💦 👶 Governor!!!

the governor needs to remove them from their posts.

Mobs destroying Portland and this is what they are worried about? Yikes.

Обоссали... Не хуй так выёбываться

Why does she not have a mask on?

Lol at taking Oregon’s government seriously after they enacted a state-wide mask mandate that exempted people of color. Major fail 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

The officials have lost all credibility so no one trusts them. Rightfully so.

Good for them

They should be fired and incarcerated! Just who in the hell do they think they are? They can’t kill with them firearms no more so they gone use COVID-19? Bullshit. Go get they ass! Lock em up!

Oregon Gov Kate BROWN, oh, that explains that!

Piss on the governor.... Liberal juice bag.

Oh, we're supposed to take this mask thing seriously now....?

What Mayor of Miami-Dade complains about Trump not wearing mask, now Govenor of Oregon ( highly radical state) complains about State Troopers not wearing masks, at least have your pictures taken with masks on for good showing!

Same troopers would likely harass citizens not wearing a mask

Where’s hers?

Yet everyone can riot to their heart’s delight!!🙄🙄

Yes the riots in Portland are just Great right?

unpaid suspension would get the point across

How’s body and who’s choice?

'✨ following the PseudoPotus They Feel Protected by Code...I'm Sure the 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯 on the backs of the Bounty Hunted Military, is a 'CODE' TOO...🤔...✨' 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑

They all should be fined & get warnings as it is bad example for others.

4everNeverTrump Fire them.

With Portland happening, this is the Oregon story? 🤦🏼‍♀️

Fired? Lawsuits coming

Man conservatives really are free market capitalists who comply with the law until they aren’t/don’t....

Oregon and Washington are two of the worst run states.

4everNeverTrump Unless those folks were fired, officials didn't really come out swinging

Love how the cops said the Governor 'has no right to take away their civil liberties'. Ironic since the police do nothing but take away people's civil liberties.

Oregon should have fired these State Patrol officers.

I see it EVERY DAY. these people are disgusting.

don't be sheep

Next up on ABC, an explanation on how to drink coffee with a mask on.

Defund the police and let’s start over. They are as bad as trump and believe they are above the law.

Shut up, Kate.

who cares? masks are a placebo, they don’t really do anything. you’re being lied to.

Who cares since masks don't save any lives?

It's kind of hard to drink coffee with a mask on.

How do you drink coffee with a mask on?
