📽️ WATCH: We reviewed 700+ videos, hours of footage from ICE protesters and counterprotesters in Portland.

Trump justified the deployment of National Guard troops by calling the city "War ravaged," with an ICE office under siege. That's not what we found.

The Trump regime’s constant onslaught of cruelty and mounting threats can be scary and demoralizing. That’s their intent.

But the people won’t bow down. On Saturday, we’re gonna speak out on a grander scale than Trump has ever seen. Find a peaceful protest: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

It should not be understated how much clever shit like this actually annihilates morale at places like ICE/CBP.

Getting made fun of like this on national television while people laugh at you is.. well, you may call it victory wine, but it ain't.

Well put, John Tayer. Seems like the solution lies between the cops arresting a guy who needs help and simply removing the bench so he has to sit somewhere else…
