Oh, are the homeless the reason the National Guard was called in? I thought it was for the protests. /s

Yes, Portland has a homeless issue. It has had one since I moved here in 2013 (and probably before then). Covid made it worse but the issue is slowly getting better. But again, homelessness isn't what the President and Kristi Noem are talking about.
