Was it your garden-variety arsonist or an antifa terrorist exacting political retribution that caused the fire at a Portland rib restaurant owned by rapper Snoop Dogg’s uncle?
Investigators with @PDXFire say the fire at Reo's Ribs last month was intentionally set and they have a suspect they would like to question.
This is surveillance footage from that night.

Grammy award-winning singer Lizzo is being criticized for betraying the body positivity movement by trying to lose weight, and some are accusing her of “succumbing to fatphobia.”
The publisher of a book about cancel culture by Julie Burchill has cancelled it after the writer was accused of Islamophobia on Twitter.
The book, Welcome to the Woke Trials, had been due to be published by Little, Brown in April.
But Burchill got embroiled with a row with fellow writer Ash Sarkar.
Little, Brown said her comments were “not defensible from a moral or intellectual standpoint” and “crossed a line with regard to race and religion”.
A statement from the company said: “We will no longer be publishing Julie Burchill’s book. This is not a decision we have taken lightly.
The International Criminal Court has decided not to pursue an investigation into China’s mass detention of Muslims, a setback for activists eager to hold Beijing accountable for persecution of ethnic and religious minorities.
Prosecutors in The Hague said on Monday that they would not, for the moment, investigate allegations that China had committed genocide and crimes against humanity regarding the Uighurs, a predominantly Muslim ethnic group, because the alleged crimes took place in China, which is not a party to the court.
An appeal from the Metropolitan Police urging Londoners to turn in people suspected of having potentially dangerous opinions has backfired, after the message was flooded with George Orwell references and satirical ‘reports’.
In a tweet, the police force encouraged Britons to tell them their concerns “in confidence” if they become worried about someone they know “developing extremist views.”
A new nativity scene that has recently been unveiled at St. Peter’s Square in the Vatican has attracted quite a lot of attention online already, but perhaps not of the kind its creators were hoping for.
The woke madness of transgender ideology demands that we “de-gender” body parts unique to each sex in order to further the flights of fancy that one can be a “man” or a “woman” not only as it regardless of one’s biological sex but as it regards the existence of biological sex at all to the point of denigrating it to simply body parts that one may or may not have regardless of whether they are a “man” or a “woman”.
What is the Public Health Agency of Canada hiding about Chief Public Health Officer, Dr. Theresa Tam?
Odd that Canadian media has been silent about the leak of Chinese Communist Party members embedded in the west.
…As I’ve discussed previously, a small number of people who received Pandemrix, one of the H1N1 vaccines, later developed narcolepsy – an incurable, life-altering disease. The connection was first noticed in Scandinavian countries such as Sweden, where vaccination rates tend to be high.
In Finland, children aged 16 and under were diagnosed with narcolepsy 17 times as often in 2010 as had been the case between 2002 and 2009. Most of those stricken developed symptoms serious enough to impair their daily lives within a few months of receiving Pandemrix.
The Seattle City Council said the proposal, crafted with input from local public defenders, would excuse suspects from minor crimes like theft, trespassing, or assault — but not in cases of domestic violence or driving while impaired, KUOW-TV reported.
“In a situation where you took that sandwich because you were hungry and you were trying to meet your basic need of satisfying your hunger, we as a community will know that we should not punish that,” Anita Khandelwal, King County director of public defense, told the station. “That conduct is excused.”
A young mother says she and her husband were kicked off a United Airlines flight because their two-year-old daughter refused to wear a mask.
Eliz Orban was in tears during a video she shared Friday on Instagram showing herself in the airport along with her husband and daughter, Edeline, after getting off the plane.
‘We just got kicked off a flight because our two-year-old would not put on a mask,’ Orban, who was flying with her family from Colorado to Newark, New Jersey, said.
North Korea is using the coronavirus pandemic to crack down even more on its people, seven members of the United Nations Security Council said.
Germany, Britain, France, Belgium, Estonia, the United States and the Dominican Republic made the accusation Friday during a private, virtual meeting, Reuters reported.
“The DPRK’s human rights violations pose an imminent threat to international peace and security. The DPRK government diverts resources away from its people to its illicit ballistic missile and nuclear programs,” the seven countries said in a statement.
