“Not a big antifa crowd yet” 😑 Bloc babes where y’all at??

“Portland- this will no longer be a racist city! Are you with me?!” - speaker at the ijc, big cheers from the crowd

Whoever just said “is that antifa?!” When we walked by I see you and I love you lol

“White and Black are now united! We are ONE race, the HUMAN RACE!”

Also when I said kids I didn’t mean to be patronizing! It was a reference to something from earlier

There is a person streaming and signing to their audience it’s incredible 😻🥰

some peace policing happening... protesters are yelling “people over property!”

Anyone know where we can find water lol

Someone pointed out how aggressive some peace police can be and I thought that was an an interesting point. Ironic, really.

Y’all please be careful... my new stalker is now sending me FACE PICS of people “committing crimes” they have all been deleted but Bloc up and stay vigilant please

Lololol wanna laugh

We’re hearing the fed snatch vans have been around. Be careful y’all. Can’t confirm but still be careful

Speakers are currently speaking and leading chants on the megaphone in front of the federal courthouse and the crowd is gathered all around the fed fence - a handful of protesters fill the “closed” park

Also I can’t believe I haven’t mentioned trumps threat to delay the elections yet 😳

If you feel so inclined, here is a link you can find where to support Portland’s independent journos 🥰

Some “less than lethal” munitions

Also 7/11 is open!!! Just found out lol

We were just saying this lol.

Speaker still on the megaphone in front of the federal courthouse, a group of about 10 journos think they are going to gas us once the “big cameras” leave. Big if true.

Speaker- who do we protect?!
Protesters- Black Youth!!

Also did y’all know the feds are trying to remove the court order that protects journalists???!!! I WONDER WHY 🤬🤬

Some guy just went up to a group of NLG and said “hi! Are you guys press?” and now is explaining how they put ice on the elkless elk so no one starts a fire because that’s when the cops and feds come out. Y’all... What the actual...

Current person on the speaker freestyling straight 🔥🔥

Wow... peace police out full force tonight. I... yeah. Tonight’s different.

Do @GriffinMalone6 and I just attract unsolicited conversation interrupters??

Oh god. He’s singing to us now. If you see this this is our call for reinforcements ‼️‼️‼️

So this is happening... - @GriffinMalone6

Thank you!! It worked! He’s gone now but here’s part of him singing to us in my ear

Crowd just got a new wave of energy... now chanting “fuck Donald trump!” at the federal courthouse. Someone journos with me said “we are @defendpdx and we support this message!” - can confirm

Someone just said “yeah there’s like 60 people here... I was actually literally able to do a headcount”
I can’t confirm as I haven’t recounted but I trust who said this.

Now chanting “@realDonaldTrump is a racist!” - also true

When the cops don’t riot there is always art to look at and people to listen to

Pigs just came out of the federal courthouse behind the fence literally don’t know why no reason. But someone just screamed “hey thanks for not shooting me in the fucking face dick!”

They already retreated... ok?

We’re out safely 🖤
