Update (2021ET): While the mainstream media and the federal government drummed up imminent threats of right-wing violence during the presidential inauguration at state capitol buildings, nothing happened that was significant in reporting. 

Meanwhile, after the Biden inauguration, leftist groups, such as Antifa, are causing chaos in multiple cities.

A group of violent demonstrators gathered in Southeast Portland on Wednesday afternoon, hours after President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris were sworn in at the US Capitol. The leftist anti-government group appeared displeased with the new administration as they attacked the building of the Democratic Party of Oregon.

Local news KGW reports the group of at least 100 people, dressed in all black, marched through Portland. 

KGW's Mike Benner posted a series of tweets showing the chaos unfolding in Portland as there was "significant damage at the Democratic Party of Oregon bldg at 9th & Everett." 

Videos Benners posted shows group members, dressed in all black, are likely radical leftist, Antifa. 

Despite President Biden pleading for national unity in his Inaugural Address today, demonstrators in Portland held up signs that read:

"We are ungovernable" and "A new world from the ashes." 

Conservative journalist Andy Ngo tweeted "shocking footage of Antifa" smashing the Democratic Party of Oregon building. So much for unity... 

Another local news station, KATU, said the protest in Portland this afternoon is called the "J20 protest."

"We Don't Want Biden - We Want Revenge!" another banner read. 

Already, there have been reports that some of the demonstrators have attacked police officers. 

"The group of roughly 100 people started marching north shortly after 3 p.m. and reached the Democratic Party of Oregon's Portland headquarters shortly before 4 p.m.," said KATU.

"Members of this group have been observed damaging the building. Anyone involved in criminal behavior, including vandalism and graffittiing is subject to arrest or citation," Portland Police Bureau tweeted.

More demonstrations are planned for this evening, according to police. 

Besides Portland, so-called Antifa mobs were seen burning American flags outside Colorado's Capitol building. The Sun describes the group as a "militant left-wing-group." 

Reports keep pouring in as Antifa groups assemble in other cities. Twitter user Jason Whitman said an Antifa march was spotted at the Ohio Capitol building this afternoon. 

With reports of leftist anti-government groups, or possibly Antifa as some claim, are on a path of destruction in multiple cities following the Biden inauguration. There are reports Antifa is planning to attack Trump supporters this week. 

The militant leftist group seeks to dismantle the federal government; it comes at the president calls for national unity.

I see reports that Antifa is out in small forces and smashed the windows of the Democrat Party is Portland. I can't blame them - they have inherited a dysfunctional Country deeply in debt which was looted by the Baby Boomers. Now they have another rich old White Guy from Elitist Privilege and a Woman of Color who cavorted her way to the top with San Fran Willie Brown over them. Who wants that?

Proud Boys are right - Trump pulled a bait and switch.

Proud Boys. Antifa and BLM were merely useful tools of the White entrenched political families who rule America and represent Baby Boomers - they have more in common than they realize. Hopefully they will join forces and move the Country in a different direction - as the Baby Boomers did in the 60's. And unfortunately, that includes violence and destruction because reason and compromise never works.
