Federal Agents to Being Phased Withdrawal from Portland

Federal agents who have clashed with protesters in Portland, Oregon, will begin a "phased withdrawal" from the city.

The Governor of Oregon and the Acting Homeland Security Secretary say they've  negotiated a deal…but there's no clarity on exactly when the troops will begin to leave. 

Just hours before the announcement of the agreement for troops to leave Portland, President Trump doubled down on the need for increased federal presence there.
