I do what I can to help preserve our democracy. Please join your local protests and let's keep fighting fascism together.

I'm going to mine. Thanks for the tip about wearing yellow. See you all on the streets.

Let's all show up in numbers too big to ignore. We can do this!

So sorry for your loss. Hold onto the good memories on the tough days ahead.

This is fun to watch. But in all seriousness, this is the way to protest peacefully. It's showing how ridiculous the claims of Portland being violent is.
It's also attracting media attention.
Party on, Portland frog and friends!

Thanks so much, Portland Frogs! I'm hoping you guys win the Nobel Peace Prize next year.

This is what a good neighbor does: Protect the innocent from evil.

Me, too. I'm anti-fascist and looking forward to exercising my First Amendment rights next weekend.
Let's show up in numbers too big to ignore.

Maybe the frogs will save our democracy. Let's hear it for the frogs in Portland.

You mean Trump didn't win the Nobel Peace Prize? I'm shocked.
Maybe next year the Portland frog protester will win. But if the frog loses, he will be hopping mad! 😄

Miller is the power behind the Trump throne.

It's a beautiful state for sure.

Thanks so much for your dedication and hard work, Portland ICE Frog.

Great comment. I couldn't have said it better myself.

Our system of checks and balances is weakening daily. The idea was no branch of government became too powerful.
Congress could hold him accountable. The Supreme Court could stop him. Instead, both branches are letting Trump do whatever he wants to do.
I will keep fighting but it's not looking good.

Way to go, Portland. Keep standing strong and staying peaceful.

It's amazing how far this country has fallen from Obama to the orange creature who now occupies the White House. It's like night and day, darkness and light and evil and good.
Sad.

Way to go, Portland! This is what peaceful protesting looks like.
The dancing unicorn is my favorite.

The inmates really are running the asylum.

Liberal Lady @conniemary.bsky.social · 1d

Sadly true. Trump is all about retribution.
But she's a brave woman and won't be intimidated. She will easily best these trumped up charges. Please pardon the pun.

Liberal Lady @conniemary.bsky.social · 1d

Resist and persist. Keep up the good fight against ICE.

Liberal Lady @conniemary.bsky.social · 1d

I look forward to attending my local event. Please attend yours.
We the people still have the power.

White straight males commit most of the crimes. Not immigrants. Not drag queens. Not trans people.

I hope so. I hope the streets are overrun with peaceful protesters.
I'm looking forward to attending my local protest. I'm also looking forward to seeing the photos and videos of protests across the country.
Let's do this!

Me, too. I thought most people were better than that. But I was wrong.

So sorry for the loss of your beautiful cat. My condolences.
