Interesting that when our response to fascists organizing was to beat the shit out of them and shut everything down, they stopped coming. Now that our strategy is interpretive dance and court orders, they're suddenly brave again. And this time they don't even need Portland Police to protect them!

"Portland was so great in the 90s."

No it fucking wasn't. We had six homicides on Burnside between the bridge and the brewery in one fucking calendar week in '96, and the shootout on Pioneer Courthouse Square in Crack '95.

But it was a lot wh*ter, and we all know what the actual desire is here.
Sometimes I feel like people are more interested in trying to return to some idealized time in their life rather than building a better future for others.

So glad we voted another middle aged white failson into the Mayor's office just so he could *checks notes* shoehorn in the exact same failed strategies and policies as the four nearly identical parasites before him 🙃🙃
Might as well hand the city over to the business alliance next election ffs.

I want to be optimistic like everyone but they're gonna give Mamdani the CIA special or just harp on it until a lone wolf Trumper does it themselves. No way this country let's an even half decent sounding politician run anything.

Quick, someone ask Democrats whether accepting Dick Cheney's endorsement last election was a good strategy! Maybe now that he's dead they'll finally gain even a hint of introspection???

Dick Cheney left a stain upon our species that we will spend the rest of our lives trying to scrub out. All decent people want our world to move in the exact opposite direction he spent his entire blood-spattered career working to steer us toward.

It is the moral duty of good people globally to make sure Netanyahu and his enablers like Biden and Trump see a life sentence or a firing squad.
Dick Cheney died far too old and far too free. The fact that such monsters get to pass away in their eighties surrounded by loved ones instead of alone in a cage is an indictment of our entire civilization.

Dick Cheney is dead and once again we allowed an incalculably evil monster to die peacefully of old age instead of the way they deserved. Burn in fucking hell, and may every person and institution who backed you join you expeditiously. 🙏 Say hi to Charlie and Reagan down there!

Numbers did not show tonight & the aggressive MAGA content show is dominating the area, with Portland police help.

So when racists hold rallies downtown Portland Police will move heaven and earth to "protect their right to protest" but somehow that same logic does not apply to ICE protestors. I have dozens of memories of being beaten and gassed by PPB for countering Nazis. Suddenly they're nowhere to be found!

Alameda police in California fired dozens of shots at a Uhaul truck that reversed too close to them. Full on firing squad mode towards journalists and protestors, and there's claims at least one bystander was hit. Worst part is the journo who recorded it goes out of his way to cover for the police

This is amazing. Nothing in this shitty ass racist country deserves to be preserved.

The ICE situation in Hillsboro Oregon has escalated. They're pointing guns at children.
ICE agents hold teens at gunpoint at Dutch Bros in Hillsboro
The group of teens told local police ICE stopped them twice on Oct. 3, part of a broader immigration enforcement surge across the Portland area.

Surprise!!!!! Letting fascists do whatever they want because you have the delusional hope that a system designed to preserve capitalism at any cost will rule against itself in your favor is apparently not a winning strategy!
Ninth Circuit clears way for federalization of Oregon National Guard
President Donald Trump ordered the National Guard to an ICE facility in Portland to fend off what has been largely peaceful protests.

This scumbag is such a clear example of everything that is holding Portland back from being a city that really works for its citizens. What an absolute fucking piece of shit.

If you got a police escort today, here's a view of how the police reacted to protests that actually disrupted the system.
Video from earlier when horses ran through the crowd. Cops were swinging batons randomly at the crowd as well.

If your protest isn't actively being attacked by the police, your protest is not a threat to that which you are protesting. You are at a parade. If your goal is to express dissatisfaction with the way things are, why not simply change them? They will ignore this protest, like they did the last one.

Who would have guessed that people who chose to become cops AFTER a national reckoning with the inherently racist and violent nature of the job would then proceed to be racist and violent?
It's almost like Ted Wheeler and Rene González knew what they were doing by recruiting so heavily post-2020.
The PPB tenure of the 7 PPB officers involved in the last 3 deadly force/in custody death incidents:

2.9 years
1.7 years
1 year
6 years
2.92 years
2.53 years
1.83 years

DPSST records show that none of them have worked at any other law enforcement agency in Oregon.

It's almost unbelievable to see Portland Police do something other than enable racists and Nazis. Probably the first time in over a decade I've seen them respond adequately to far-right violence. Absolutely unprecedented. They must REALLY care about their image right now.
Portland police arrested a right-wing agitator at the ICE facility. Protesters say this man punched a woman in the face on video. I’ll update if I see the video, but it seems very likely given how fast PPB responded and what everyone is saying.

Lowkey disagree with this take because what did we achieve? We didn't "give Trump what he wanted" and yet he's still doing everything he wants. Our neighbors are still being kidnapped, he's going on TV and promising to airstrike antifascists, manufacturing a war with Venezuela, what did we win?
My read is that fascists in the Trump Admin had Portland central to their martial law plan — 100% confident they could poke us & get visuals they wanted — and we, incredibly, have denied it to them in the funniest way possible.

It’s honestly an incredible achievement. So proud of Portlanders.
Okay, so I am 100% for animal costumes, dancing, music, or whatever other way people want to protest against ICE, Trump, fascism, or similar.

I think saying that it's "effective" because people dunking online makes me wonder what the fuck people think the end goal of it is.

Don't worry, he won't drone strike you! As every Democrat will tell you, what the Trump administration is doing is illegal! Not to mention that the liberals have a great plan to stop him! It starts by letting him do whatever he wants to us while we all beg for him to stop!
My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

It's October 7th! May we see a one-state-solution, a free and independent Palestine within our lifetime. Long live the Palestinian resistance. Long live Hamas and every fighter still out there sending zionists back home to Brooklyn and Poland in a fucking box.
