Anyway, abolish ICE, organize, solidarity forever.

If I worked for the Democrats, I’d immediately use the footage from Portland today to cut a commercial that says “Republicans are cutting your healthcare so Trump can fend off violent Antifa terrorists in chicken costumes.”

Kristi Noem confronts enemy combatants in the Portland war zone today.

Milwaukie Man Says He Was Abducted by ICE and Held for Hours Despite Proving Citizenship Anthony Effinger

The case may be the first documented incidence of a documented Oregonian and U.S. citizen being swept up by ICE in an immigration raid.

"hand-to-hand combat with antifa every night"

Everything sucks right now, but allow me a moment of triviality: I liked TLOAS. I thought it had some bangers on it and it was fun. Deep? No. Best writing? No. I don’t need deep, sad music in this current moment in time.

lol finally, getting our recognition 😆

The Oregonian editorial board linked this post in their Trump editorial today because they know it’s true and that they are partially responsible for promoting the idea that Portland is a crime ridden hellscape.

They want to pretend it never happened when confronted with their own complicity.

Look to Denmark during the Nazi occupation

Good post by Wyden staffer

The so-called "paper of record" tries to caution New Yorkers against Zohran with a smear-job article about Portland's Socialists in Office. Embarrassing! Seems like the genocide-denial has melted some brains over there.

Paragraph from article reads "at a downtown art gala last month, affinity for Portland's socialists among champagne-sipping attendees was in short supply. The event celebrated the opening of a museum exhibit showcasing the collection of Jordan Schnitzer, a local billionaire and philanthropists." and it's followed by a photo of two champagne-sipping attendees at the gala

Official statement from Team Toddler re: *that* NYT piece:

🗣️Lol. LMAO. We especially appreciated this photo of our opposition

I love to see Portland unite via the clowning of a New York Times article

What Happens When Socialists Are in Charge? Portland Offers a Glimpse.

Not only does this story get a number of basic facts wrong, it doesn’t take time to actually explore why Portlanders elected these folks. Coming in with a pre-baked PDX story to fit a NYT narrative about NYC is harmful, especially at this moment.

Just as a reminder that tactical frivolity is a valid form of non violent protesting and that people in Portland are *very* aware of the dangers of our current administration.

People were literally kidnapped off the streets in 2020, Portland knows what fascism looks like

Imperial Boomerang Effect

THEY CLOSED PUBLIC POOLS RATHER THAN SWIM WITH BLACK PEOPLE

YOU ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME GROUP OF PEOPLE AS THE FOLKS WHO DID THIS

PLEASE WAKE THE FUCK UP

Trump’s deployment of troops to Portland is a dangerous escalation of authoritarianism. Now is the time to find our own ways of standing up and fighting back to preserve our democracy. Fellow vets: we need you to muster. And those serving: you can refuse an unlawful order as you may receive it.

We need a diversity of tactics in this moment - we need protestors, organizers, educators, community builders, and more. We’re not gonna shame people for not doing the thing we’re doing and we’re not doing the good vs. bad protester thing. We have to leave that in the past.

I’m in the occupied Antifa zone of Oregon, and the only violence that’s occurring is the fact that it’s the end of peach season at the farmer’s market.

bit by bit, the administration is laying the groundwork and actually carrying out a system of repressing democratic life in america. redefining opposition as terrorism, targeting critics, investigating civic funders.

we're so far beyond normal and, again, only eight months in.

Good!

let me do a lil explainer here why we should be organizing towards this in portland too! Like NYC, we're rolling out the first step: universal pre-k (3-4yo.) Now we need to keep going to include 0-2! Paid leave & lots of childcare options - this next step is exciting!

Bothers me when people discuss Left movements in the U.S. w/out underscoring the GENERATIONS of repression, surveillance, violence directed at movements. The "Left" is so disorganized is used as a joke but I hardly ever see those same people saying 'THE LEFT WAS TARGETED & DISORGANIZED by the STATE'

There are plenty of books at your local libraries and bookstores to read and learn about autism that do not focus on Tylenol. Best of all, more and more books are being written and illustrated. More and are being published! 📚
