Hearing has been delayed regarding the temporary restraining order for the National Guard deployment in Portland, OR. Judge Simon has set a hearing for 10am on Friday.

Local media is reporting that an Oregon Military Department spokesperson said that we can expect to see boots on the ground in Portland by Thursday.

NG with at least 4 charter busses have already been spotted as close as Tualatin.

Trump says he is sending the military to an American city that is not under any threat except from his regime. Here’s #Oregon Governor Tina Kotek on the situation in #Portland, posted on Bluesky at about 10 am pacific time.

So…this is it. The end of everything as we know it. The escalation that we’ve feared.

“Full force.”

Portland is about to become ground zero for live rounds and the civil war between fascism and everything that is good.

I’m very, very frightened for what is upon us here. In my own backyard, where kids are playing and people are walking by the river. The propaganda is insanity.

💔😭

Do they sell Epstein masks? Like can everyone in #Portland start wearing one all the time?

PORTLAND (The Borowitz Report)—Donald J. Trump’s latest use of the military against US citizens backfired spectacularly on Saturday after Federal troops arrived in Portland, Oregon and immediately formed indie bands.

This is satire.
#Portland #ICE

Chatting with a couple of friends who live in #Portland to see how they’re doing in their horrific war-ravaged lands.

It sounds like something out of a nightmare.

There are bookstores everywhere and buskers playing music and there’s art and music and lots of greenery and weed is legal.

I weep for them and their beautiful horizon and their nice people who just don’t know how awful their lives are living in their PNW hellscape.

#Oregon sues #Trump admin over order to deploy #troops in #Portland

The #defense secretary issued a memo saying 200 members of the Oregon #NationalGuard would be activated, an action state leaders say is #unlawful.

Portland friends. Some MAGAs hurt a woman at the ICE facility protest.

Two middle-aged white people tried to drive through the crowd. One of the protesters was hit. Not badly, but hit all the same.

The street was blocked off and cops were redirecting traffic. This was intentional.

Does anyone recognize them? That hat is pretty recognizable.

As extractive “wildcrafting” has become popular, supposedly treaty-protected #Indigenous access to ancestral gathering sites has diminished, says Michelle Week (Sinixt, Arrow Lakes), who runs x̌ast sq̓it, an Indigenous foods farm near #Portland #Oregon.

“You have the privilege to go out and gather these things without fear of harassment, but my community, who’s native to this place, we just don’t have that luxury.”

Despite a $1.3 billion investment that Portland said would improve the safety of homeless people, deaths in Multnomah County have quadrupled — from 113 in 2019 to more than 450 in 2023.

This is a "notice to remove 'personal property ' from public spaces because homeless people do not have US Constitutional rights in AmeriKKKa.

They've been coming for the homeless for decades but your silent because your not homeless.

They've been coming for non-white people for decades but your white so you barely make a whisper.

They've been coming for gay people for decades but your not gay so you barely make a whisper.

Soon, there will be no one left to stand up for you...

WAKE THE FUCK UP before your on the list.

The USA is a terrorist country ran by rich people. Are you rich enough?

Hey #Portland there's a guy trying to shoot homeless people in your area. It's rare that a case like this gets so much media coverage, such solid pictures of the attacker AND a $2500 bounty.

Hope y'all locate him:

📍 1300 & 1600 block of Schmeer Road
📍 3500 block of North Victory Blvd.

This man is wanted for questioning after a series of unprovoked shootings targeting homeless people.

One of the scariest moments of my life was when I fled #boise #idaho to #portland #oregon with nothing.

I was #homeless and desperate, and there was nothing left for me there but bad memories, and very few resources for someone poor.

I had exhausted all my options, and I was just trying not to die.

Still recovering from #opioids I got on a Greyhound to a shelter I had lined up in advance, and stepped from a desert into rain.

All that effort and fear just to have a bed.
