Portland DA Drops Charges against Conservative Journalist Who Was Attacked by Antifa

Craig Bannister : Oct 7, 2025  MRC Newsbusters

"Somebody made the call to have me arrested, we just don't know who yet, but I think we're gonna find out." -Nick Sortor, independent journalist

"VICTORY: Following our demand for discovery related to the @PortlandPolice's coordination with Antifa, the Multnomah County DA has announced they will DECLINE to prosecute me," Journalist Nick Sortor declared on social media Monday.

"After a careful review of the investigation, including reports and video, we do not believe the crime of Disorderly Conduct can be proven against Mr. Sortor beyond a reasonable doubt," Sortor quoted from a statement by the Multnomah County District Attorney's Office he embedded in his post.

"And trust me, this is ONLY the beginning," Sortor promised, possibly alluding to plans to file a lawsuit or investigate whether or not the police had engaged in any "coordination with Antifa."

As Fox News has reported, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said that Sortor was "taken into custody by the Portland police after he was ambushed by Antifa and was defending himself from these assaults." 

"But instead of arresting these violent mob members, night after night after night, who are ravaging this community, the police arrested a journalist who was there trying to document the chaos," she added. 

Sortor told Fox News that he was surprised when the police arrested him when he went over to them hoping they'd protect him from the mob. While charges against Sortor were dropped, two members of the Antifa mob have been charged with disorderly conduct. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
