US press reports confirm killing of Portland anti-fascist was targeted police assassination

Two new press investigations have brought forward important evidence that the police killing of anti-fascist activist Michael Reinoehl on September 3 was a targeted assassination.
President Trump and Attorney General William Barr have repeatedly hailed the killing of Reinoehl as a model of how to deal with left-wing political opposition. Nearly every Trump campaign rally features the president celebrating the actions of the US Marshals unit that hunted down Reinoehl, with Trump boasting of his personal role in ordering what is now shown to be a cold-blooded police murder.
