union logos for 30 Oregon unions and labor organizations

Today, 31 unions & labor organizations representing over 130,000 workers in Portland and OR sent a letter to @mayorkwilson.bsky.social & District Attorney Vasquez demanding that they enforce the law and get justice for the children, elderly, & working people tear gassed by ICE on 1/31.

With all due respect, retire today you stupid old bitch

Screenshot of text. "Michael H. Simon, District Judge. In a well-functioning constitutional democratic republic, free speech, courageous newsgathering, and nonviolent protest are all permitted, respected, and even celebrated. In an authoritarian regime, that is not the case. Our nation is now at a crossroads. We have been here

Judge Simon here in Portland just granted the TRO in the ICE use of force case. The first three sentences are pretty haunting.

Federal officers in Portland have been blocked from directing or using “chemical or projectile munitions,” including pepper balls, tear gas and other crowd control munitions at protesters outside the ICE facility.

We got gassed but we are not backing down.

ABOLISH AND PROSECUTE ICE.

i would like to know when we can have diana back

Mayor Wilson has now indicated he will expedite the rule making process for the Detention Facility Impact Fee. I am grateful for that.

We also need District Attorney Nathan Vasquez to outline how he plans to hold ICE agents accountable for the unlawful use of tear gas against a group of families.

I've seen videos of the indiscriminate use of tear gas on a large crowd that was clearly peaceful and filled with Portlanders of all ages, and well off the macadam facility. We banned tear gas for a reason. I join Councilor Green in calling for enforcement of our laws.

I join my City Councilors in calling for prosecution of ICE for this flagrant violation of city and state law. This is illegal, and if ICE does this to families and children on a sunny peaceful daytime protest, I shudder to think what they do without that kind of daylight and public scrutiny.

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

We mourn the death of Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a union nurse who spent his life fighting for his community. We are outraged by ICE's attack on our neighbors, on healthcare workers, on all of us. We intend to fight, and here are two upcoming actions you can join as well.

The Senate must reject the bill that funds ICE. Both chambers must take up impeachment, conviction and removal proceedings for POTUS and any other office engaged in the killing and oppression of our communities. Abolish ICE and prosecute from root to branch every last one of them.

update: on their third day of deadlock on the council president vote, and right after this mercury piece, the conservative bloc switched their votes from their current president to the only POC in their caucus because they really believe race works like that

From Portland to Minnesota, we stand united against ICE, DHS and all agents of state terror against our immigrant communities.

Shut the fuck up

“The shooting of Mr. Moncada by federal officers and the subsequent accusations leveled against the victim of that shooting follow a well-worn playbook that the government has developed to justify the dangerous and unprofessional conduct of its agents,” Cassino Du-Cloux said.

City Hall rally

Hundreds came out last night to hear a message of solidarity from Portland's DSA City councilors after ICE shot two migrants in East Portland

Feds say shooting in Portland by Border Patrol was self-defense; witness describes agents cornering truck One witness said he heard five gunshots fired in the parking lot of a Southeast Portland medical office after federal officers boxed in a Toyota truck that had pulled into the lot.

“Nathan Vasquez stopped by the scene of the shooting Thursday afternoon. He said his office was present to assist [the FBI].”

Oh really? MCDA wants to assist the gestapo in their cover up?

the true reason people are afraid of peacock is because we have the crows

ICE needs to be taken apart, brick by brick, and we need to salt the earth.
