with Portland there's the depressing addendum that 90% of why this is happening is the right wing media grifter ecosystem got badly addicted to viral Portland content during the Trump years and they've been fiending for another hit ever since
its truly remarkable, you have to really take the measure of it and it's almost hard to comprehend it, but the president of the united states is having texas invade illinois and oregon just to make twitter content

If and when America finds a way out of authoritarianism, not only will ICE have to be abolished: All these people will need to be held accountable in a court of law for the monstrosities they are committing - those who are ordering them as well as those who are carrying them out.
Every single one.
