During the height of ICE surges in Portland OR, I spent several nights documenting minute-by-minute activity from DHS, Border Patrol and ICE agents outside of the Portland detention facility.
What you see circulating on the news is almost never the full picture. The full picture includes what happened in the hours before the pepper spray, before the protestors were rushed, and before anyone had a reason to be filming at all.
This is a minute-by-minute account of one of those nights, where the escalation actually came from, and who made the decisions that caused it.
