I would rather live next to a hundred undocumented immigrants than one ICE officer.

How do you know when you're done with a #painting?

Tarnished

painted by ME!
Acrylic on Canvas, 24 x 36

#liberty #resist #nokings #america #artist #pdx #pdxartist #acrylicpainting #wip #abolishice #politicalart #art
A dramatic, intense painting of the Statue of Liberty on a canvas set on an easel. The portrait focuses on her head, crown, and torch-holding arm, rendered in thick brushstrokes primarily using shades of brown, white, and a shimmering metallic gold background. Her face is pale with shadowed, intense eyes and a resolute expression. The painting's style is dynamic and raw, contrasting the traditional figure with a modern, emotionally charged look.

Public Statement from the Chief of PR for Antifa™️:

We at ANTIFA have reviewed all evidence, eye-witness accounts and legal documents pertaining to the United States' Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency.

It is our determination that we must designate "ICE" as an illegal terrorist operation.

Good. Looks like some federal employees do read and understand the Hatch Act.

Growing list of airport authorities who are refusing to play the Kristi Noem video for travelers that blames Democrats for the shutdown:

Portland International Airport
Seattle–Tacoma International Airport
Buffalo Niagara International Airport
Niagara Falls International Airport

Yeah, No. Get these "Federal Agents" out of our city. They're not here for anyone's safety, they're only here to dominate and spread fear. Preventing an ambulance from going to the hospital and threatening to shoot the driver is beyond the pale. #PDX #Portland #FuckICE

Documents Allege a Federal Agent at Portland ICE Threatened to Shoot an Ambulance Driver
Feds delayed medics who had come to pick up an injured protester. Then, according to confidential incident reports, the agents became aggressive.

Ugh the comments on that video are rancid.

Thank you for standing your ground on this.

Earlier this year, two Republicans were sworn in less than 24 hours after their elections.

It’s been 20 days since @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social won her race and Speaker Johnson’s still dragging his feet.

It’s time to swear her in.

Yeah, I saw the update right after I posted that. I think it happened while I was reading the article. Thank goodness. 😮‍💨

Stay safe! I'm glad you and your family got out.

Thank you so much to the countless people supporting us in every way and in particular all of the Rutgers students and faculty who have supported us every step of the way.

This shit makes me SO ANGRY. I'm sick of this asshole just lying about the place where I live, where I choose to live because it's nice and quiet and peaceful. These are just lies and somehow no amount of people (who actually live here) telling the truth about Portland is getting through.

Trump: "I don't know what could be worse than Portland. You don't even have stores anymore. They don't even put glass up. They put plywood on their windows."

Now I'm sitting here trying to decide if I want to spend car money on a Bob Ross... when we do kind of need a new car. 😬

Also, I think this auction house may be underestimating how much those paintings could go for. They're saying $25,000 to $50,000 each. I'd think more, but what do I know.

Can confirm. Irvington smells strongly of burning rubber and plastic. Air purifiers on high tonight. 🤢

Also, for the MAGAts, I just want to point out that it's Vancouver, WA on fire, not Portland.

Make sure to keep your windows shut tonight, there's a #fire at a #Vancouver metal recycling plant that's spreading (probably toxic) #smoke all over #PDX.

The weather says there should be a breeze coming up later this evening but not for a few hours.

Irvington/Sabin is the same. It's smelt like burning tires here for hours.

Kristi Noem is cosplaying as a public official. In reality, she's been sent by Trump to incite violence. Don't tar and feather her as Speaker Johnson suggested for Governor Newsom. The best response to her playacting as cop? Ignore her and keep supporting our community.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem expected in Portland for ICE facility visit
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem could be coming to Portland today.

I mean... what else are we going to cosplay as? A thousand Donalds Trump marching down the road???
...Actually that might be hilarious.

DHS is a menace to Portland. Nothing they're doing is to keep people safe. They just want to play with their war toys and pretend to be big scary men. It's pathetic.

They hate us because they ain't us?

Seriously, though we're a city of cool weirdos with strong socialist leanings and conservative types will always attempt to destroy what they don't understand.
