Arrived at injustice! DHS car and fed snatch car with no plates on broadway and Madison

The “anti-trump band-wagon” with anti trump pins

Current speaker is successfully hyping up the crowd

This is... interesting.

Attention!! 🚨 🚨 Please be kind! Do you have this phone?

I hear a protester chanting “fuck the police!” Over by the federal courthouse

Some stats

Another dude taking a picture of our face cool 🙃

I should note that was a few blocks past pioneer square. Not at the protest

Had to check this place out. I can’t speak for the other services but I used their restroom! I spoke to the kind gentleman who helped organize this and he explained they have been vetting doctors who are providing their mental health services to protestors & medics for free.

A protester- yo that’s deadass my mom over there!

Jeff Bezos- you’re next - A

Also... I miss barricades 😿

Wall of moms in line in front of the fed fence. This moms sign reads “Black Moms been at this 400 yrs”

FYI the park still makes you sneeze and makes your eyes and throat itchy

Ppb and OSP (I think?) just came out in a creepy way for no reason while pointing their weapons at us #BlackLivesMatter #PortlandProtests #PortlandProtest #AbolishThePolice #PDXprotests #pdx #DefendPdx #ACAB #Portland #ACABSpring #TrumpThreatensAmerica #TrumpThreatensPortland

And right before the cops came out one of the moms tried to put out the fire and do some hardcore peace policing. Protesters were not happy. #BlackLivesMatter #PortlandProtests #PortlandProtest #AbolishThePolice #PDXprotests #pdx #DefendPdx #ACAB #Portland #ACABSpring #Portland

And more peace police someone is just making a sound 🤷🏻‍♀️ also I heard someone say “horse lube” about this garage door.

Someone asked @blue_scotty what’s in your backpack dude?
“A bunch of trauma shit” he replied.

Crowd is currently gathered around the bonfire in front of the federal courthouse listening to speakers

Same vibes as my last tweet. But I’m out of here y’all! Stay safe and solidarity with everyone still out there 🖤
