Watch this and weep for your country. (And to all you who are justifying it, the man in this picture is not being violent. He’s not a rioter. He is a man holding a sign. He is exercising his Constitutional right).

No they are not defending our institutions of justice; they are trampling all over our institutions of justice.

We need “clarity?” Oh, we have clarity. They do not care what the law is.

But I don’t think I’m ignoring reality. The reality is complicated.

I don’t agree with that.

I understand that. But military tactics aren’t how domestic policing is supposed to be carried out in the United States, either. And from the beginning of all this they have not just gone after rioters.

In the hands of the Republicans, most of whom are too cowardly to cross him. And/or who basically agree with his strongman ways.

This is an absolutely false narrative. The reason other countries are able to open their schools is because 1) they’ve reduced the incidence of Covid so dramatically & 2) they’ve instituted safe practices for when they do open. Neither of those are true here.
White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany on school reopenings: "The science should not stand in the way of this.”

Jeff Merkley is a US senator. He’s not posting a fake video.

It’s not just intended to make people afraid to protest. Give him four more years and we’ll be afraid to tweet. #Portland

This is what they’re doing. This is what must stop. #Portland
Authoritarian governments, not democratic republics, send unmarked authorities after protesters. These Trump/Barr tactics designed to eliminate any accountability are absolutely unacceptable in America, and must end.

You'd think.
feel like paramilitary groups from unidentified US government agencies in full combat gear sweeping black lives matter protesters off the streets of Portland in the dead of night and into unmarked vans should probably be a bigger story.

It means he thinks I'm over-dramatic. Hysterical. That I'm "one of those women" who need to calm down.

The Mayor of Portland and the Governor of Oregon are both asking federal troops to leave.
This is clearly a coordinated strategy from the White House. It is irresponsible and it is escalating an already tense situation. Remove your heightened troop presence now.

We know what’s going on on the streets and in our govt; what’s equally important now is what’s going on in our hearts. Commit, devote, dedicate. Find a calm and fierce determination within you and remember it is shared by millions of others: This will not stand. Not on our watch.

They’re basically invading Portland. It’s like a ridiculous joke except that it’s not.
In an inflammatory statement riddled with inaccuracies and spelling errors, Acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf said Portland has been “under siege” by a “violent mob” of anarchists. portlandmercury.com/blogtown…
