It’s the feds playing GI Joe in Portland, not the protesters. And honestly, these demonstrators are comedic geniuses; they’ve turned the regime’s bargain-bin authoritarian cosplay into a full-blown slapstick routine.

Republicans declare themselves patriots, then turn around and block the paychecks of the men and women who defend America.

And what’s really wild, some of those same troops keep voting red while getting screwed over again and again.

They have beaten, arrested, and detained several people including a live-streamer; still kettling people. Apparently the mayor has put a curfew into place to claim that the protesters are “unlawfully assembled” instead of exercising their constitutional rights. The protesters are still there.

The protesters are now unable to get to their vehicles to exit the area, having been pushed repeatedly in the opposite direction by the state police, who appear to be setting up to mass arrest people.
