UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Hegseth sucks. The Qataris suck. But we aren’t giving Qatar an airbase in Idaho. It’s building dorms etc. at an existing base to train them on F-15s we sold them, just like Singapore already has there. Common arrangement we have with lots of countries. This one was already being planned under Biden.

The First Amendment explicitly guarantees:

-the right of the people peaceably to assemble
-to petition the Government for a redress of grievances
-the free exercise of religion
-freedom of speech

If this priest had also been press, ICE would have violated all five 1A freedoms at once.

This made me laugh so hard. Second screenshot is of the video posted by Benny Johnson of the event.

BREAKING: DHS Secretary Kristi Noem stares down army of Antifa and a guy in a chicken suit from the rooftop of the ICE facility here in Portland.
Noem says:
"Hey; Guy in the chicken suit. You can do better.
Too bad they are uneducated and ill-informed."
Noem isn't chicken: [chicken emoji]

A view from the roof of the building. There are about 15-20 people visible in total, several of whom appear to be reporters. Most are holding signs. They aren’t even taking up the whole sidewalk. One guy is wearing a chicken suit.

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.

Apropos of nothing, Sec. Kristi Noem is currently praying over Burgerville with Portland ICE officials.

A screenshot of a video of Noem praying at a conference table with other people wearing suits. Fast food bags and water bottles sit on the table.

The Feds are giving right wing influencers and media outlets special privileges to the ICE building in Portland. They’re lying about local media getting the same access.
www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

Feds grant ICE building access to conservative media, influencers, ignore local Portland press

Not all news organizations have been granted the same access to the ICE facility and the people who work there.

Secretary Noem appeared on the upper roof of the Portland ICE facility, surrounded by a small entourage of video recording staff. Then she left the roof. Multiple reports suggest that was her, way up on the roof.

Here at Popmob HQ we’re big fans of the Portland Hypno Frog. We love a protest outfit that’s adorable, goofy, effective and just plain fun!
There’s a long history of intentionally bouncy gear at protests, and we think it’s time for a revival! Let’s explore…
