Ngo was public about possibly being attacked: “I am nervous about tomorrow’s Portland Antifa rally,” he tweeted Friday. “They’re promising ‘physical confrontation’ & have singled me out to be assaulted.”
“I went on Tucker Carlson last year to explain why I think they’re doing this: They’re seeking meaning through violence,” he added.
