Things are happening at Portland's ICE facility tonight.

Read more of our protest coverage here: www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/1...

Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

Finally! It’s nice to see more criticism about this with all of the dominate praise it’s been getting. Thanks for sharing Chris. More folks need to be talking about this.

This victory supports what Oregonians already know: we don’t need or want Donald Trump to provoke violence by deploying federal troops in our state. I’ll keep working to stop Trump from fulfilling his perverse fantasy of making Portland the center of his assault on U.S. cities.

The interaction illustrates how federal law enforcement officers do use aggressive tactics against protesters who yell and needle officers but don’t appear to present clear physical threats.

Portlanders don't provide the Republicans with excuses for turning Portland into a war zone. They create friendly and entertaining #traininggrounds for Trumps ICE thugs as well as for those forces who don't like to be misused by the #RepublicanFelon.

Excited!!

Yasss. I love this look!

Ooof.

It is understandable to see our current state of affairs and lose hope.

Look at it this way: Black Americans fought for liberation from chattel slavery.

Our current fight isn’t as big of a fight as that. We can and will win.

This sounds so attuned to my brain. Both unconvinced and unconvinced!! Wow! I feel seen.

What absolute fun. Congrats Hallow!

Agreed. So many good people!!

It was also painful to witness. So many good friends in gastronomical pain.

Yay. It was so fun to meet and play with you over the weekend. Also, Cheese Thief Live and Monikers!! It was so fun to watch you on stage.

I think this is Burdito, but I’m excited to meet Flameingo at some point.

Sophia and I just before our red eye to #final3con. Excited to see and play with so many good friends. #botc
