Our 1st amendment rights exist because we exercise them.
-Ezra Levin

Stand together in solidarity and speak out (peacefully)! That's what authoritarians fear most.

#NOKINGS2.0
Stop shredding our Constitution!
Stop occupying our cities!
Stop declaring war on our citizens!

Stay Weird Portland! 🔥 Today Portland had an emergency naked bike ride to the ICE facility. IN THE RAIN.

It was around 50°. Thousands were fully nude, half nude, or wearing costumes.

Portland is VERY dedicated to exposing the absurdities of injustice.

Here are some photos & videos. 🧵👇🏼

Shouldn't people be forwarding appropriate info to the attorney general of the state in which things were occurring?

In cases involving children, is DCS looking into them? There's clearly physical abuse. How about neglect in the detention centers where there have been reports of no access to restrooms, running water, & little or no food. Has anyone seen anything? I have not been able to find any info.

In a Chicago suburb, ICE GOONS brutally attacked a 15-year-old girl. They forcibly removed her from her car, slammed her to the ground, and then placed their knee on her neck.

Repost the post above if you're planning on buying food/snacks for @mspetersen.bsky.social's Amazon Wish List above and also repost if you've already bought food/snack for her Amazon Wish List above -- everything will go to help feed her autistic students and fill their stomachs!

Military aren't getting paid. Their families have to go to food banks. Food banks have had their funding cut.
The government is shut down.
ALL because of your bullshit.
& you go golfing on OUR dime.

Trump lost The Nobel Peace Prize to Maria Corina Machado a Venezuelan hispanic WOMAN!!! 🔥🔥🔥

Moreover, it was for her tireless work promoting a peaceful transition from a dictatorship to a democracy.

Unquestionably, this is the sweetest revenge ever!!! 😂🤣😂
