"We could hear them laughing."

They laugh at our pain.
We laugh to stay sane.

We laugh at their absurdity.
We laugh at their pathetic sense of self-importance.

Call: Oregon’s under federal attack: a lawsuit to grab private voter data and an order to federalize our Guard for Portland.
Our leaders fought back—
Sec. Read refused,
AG Rayfield won TROs,
Gov. Kotek/Mayor Wilson & our delegation spoke out.
Tell them: stay strong for Oregon!

Gov. Tina Kotek met DHS Sec. Noem at PDX, saying:
there’s no insurrection in Oregon.
She urged DHS/ICE to follow state law,
vowed to block military policing, and warned federal officers are violating Oregon’s crowd-control rules
—e.g., improper tear gas use.

We flew back to DC from the Pacific NW to reopen the government, but Republicans are not even here. They need to come back from vacation, end this shutdown, and join us in halting steep increases in health care costs.

We have the power to subvert their narrative.
This is the power of nonviolent resistance.

The backlash effect:
The more we deprive them of what they want
The more dysregulated they get
The more they escalate their tactics
The more they look unhinged

We are public
We are vocal
We are non-violent

Drumbeats on bridges, the crowd sounds alarms,
Neighbors and veterans linking their arms,
Mutual-aid tables, and chants that we sing—
These are a few of our No Kings march things.

Raindrops on banners and whistles on ribbons,
Bright union buttons and warm woolen mittens,
Fun protest puppets tied up with strings—
These are a few of our No Kings march things.

Kristi Noem is in Oregon to further Trump's mission of inciting violence. Don't take the bait.

Invading our cities with troops to stoke violence only justifies tightening Trump’s authoritarian grip. Our community is strong and we'll take care of one another.
