PORTLAND, Ore. - When Proud Boys chairman Enrique Tarrio woke up Wednesday, four news vans were parked in front of his home. The chairman of the far-right fraternity with a violent reputation was sleepy but not surprised; his phone had been ringing nonstop since President Donald Trump told his members to "stand back and stand by" during the first presidential debate the night before. 

PORTLAND, Ore. - Hundreds of members of the far-right group Proud Boys rallied at a public park here Saturday, venting threats and flashing weapons but failing to mobilize the show of strength that organizers had planned - and that Portland's leaders had feared.
