Trump is ready to platform every regional crank and reactionary to try to portray Portland as a war zone.

But he already lost this battle.

He’s been exposed (again) as a brazen liar who will say anything to get what he wants.

Trump doesn’t care about anyone, least of all the people of Portland

We were proud to join comrades across Europe and the world in Paris to demand an end to war and to strengthen international coordination against the genocide in Palestine.

We join their call to say: Not a penny, not a weapon, not a human life for war!
Wide shot of the audience at the International Meeting Against War in Paris. They are watching speakers on a large screen. DSA member Andrew Basta addresses the audience at the International Meeting Against War in Paris. Basta, who has a beard and glasses and is wearing a red and white keffiyeh, speaks at the podium. His image is also on the main screen for the large crowd.

Conservatives/"centrists": "people saying bad things about Portland isn't why trump is going to invade"

Trump: "these people saying these specific bad things about Portland is why we need to invade"

Kristi Noem & a right wing influencer that peaked in high school r visiting PDX today

My spooky season advice is that u treat these ppl like demons trying to goad u into stepping out of ur protective salt circle so they can enact violence

They need flashy footage to make $$$ on their livestreams!

Noem’s agenda for the trip has not been announced.

Sen. Wyden had a blunt response: “Kristi Noem is cosplaying as a public official. In reality, she’s been sent by Trump to incite violence."

Just spoke to a family who had an immigration appointment at the ICE facility and were turned away; told to call and reschedule. A volunteer I spoke to is distributing pamphlets w/legal resources. Says dozens of ppl were cleared from the bldg earlier, as streets were being cleared for Noem's visit.

Everything is stupid and dangerous right now, *but* we have an opportunity to make a least one thing less stupid and dangerous.

Please submit a comment to the PDX city planners asking them to prevent any further expansion of liquid fuel storage at the CEI Hub and mandate a fuel drawdown.

I agree!! If I were in Portland right now, I'd be pushing one of the @portlanddsa.bsky.social committees to get involved with @healthcareforallor.bsky.social to build some political pressure in this direction.

Feds just deployed a bunch of pink gas at protesters in Portland. They also arrested a protester and carried them into the building.

Pretty incredible own goal by liberal institutions and many Democratic electeds to crush the exact type of protests in 2024 that would’ve been the most effective way to slow or stop ICE incursions into American cities in 2025

VERY chill out here tonight at ICE processing facility south of downtown Portland. Federal Judge (Immergut, appointed by Trump) just made ruling from the bench no federalized Guard to Portland from anywhere period.

Did you or a friend or a family member get attacked by Trump’s brown shirts this weekend? I’d like to hear about it and maybe do something about it. My email is jchavez [at] ojrc [dot] info. Please put “Seeking Legal Advice re: ICE Building” in subject line. All inquiries are confidential.

Councilor Green and fellow Portland veterans leading a protest against the unlawful deployment of the national guard, the attack on our immigrant neighbors, and the rise of fascism.

To those in the armed forces, it’s not simply that you have a right to disobey an unlawful order. You have a duty.

Extremely powerful rally happening at City Hall right now.

@councilorgreen.bsky.social and dozens of US military veterans are denouncing illegal actions of the Trump Administration and encouraging National Guardsmen to refuse to follow illegal orders.

We’ll be at this rally at 2 PM and we hope you will join us. 👇

The Oregonian editorial board is a mouthpiece for Portland’s wealthiest and most powerful institutional and political actors.

Their goal since 2020 has been to weaponize and exaggerate deteriorating social conditions as a way to advance a right wing political project.

They are running from it now.

The Oregonian editorial board linked this post in their Trump editorial today because they know it’s true and that they are partially responsible for promoting the idea that Portland is a crime ridden hellscape.

They want to pretend it never happened when confronted with their own complicity.

I don’t want to hear anymore “Portland is dying” narrative or vague complaints about “ANTIFA” as the clarion call for action in the city. All of that led to Trump targeting us. Groups like People for Portland, associated right-wing media ecosystem, and political opportunists own this.

You might dismiss the feedback you get about this article because some of it will be presented in a mocking tone. I’d ask you to take it seriously. It’s disappointing to residents of a city (currently under attack from the feds!) to read something from a national reporter that misses the mark.

This was lazy reporting, and the Times would have done better for its audience exploring why so many Portlanders voted in DSA council. Article includes nothing from these voters. Describing Republicans in Portland as an “endangered species” is a choice.

The NYT helpfully notes that “at the Jordan Schnitzer champagne gala… you won’t find many fans of the socialists” and all we have to say to that is

The so-called "paper of record" tries to caution New Yorkers against Zohran with a smear-job article about Portland's Socialists in Office. Embarrassing! Seems like the genocide-denial has melted some brains over there.

Waking up to some careless parachute journalism from the NYT. Really frustrating that @kellen.bsky.social chooses to write that "some top filers" have left Portland due to the Preschool for All tax but neglects to mention that the number of overall filers went up by many thousands in that period.+
