Gotta say--dressing up in costumes is the kind of creatively brilliant resistance we all need. It brings joy and humor to things while vividly painting the authoritarian as foolish and absurd. Hats off Portlanders! @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org I think this counts as the sprite of mischief.

I would be remiss if I didn’t note that this morning I offered to fight @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org to raise money for @lawfaremedia.org's Public Service Fellowship program, as part of the upcoming White House-hosted UFC tournament, and he declined. Make of that what you will.
