A bunch of protesters came around back, car drove through crowd, some conflicts between protesters and then cops called protest unlawful
Riot cops rush in shooting smoke
Cops grab only the protesters back pack, fightimg to just get bag, not arrest. Then shove them and later dump all their belongings on the ground, leaving it and driving over it when leaving. Obvious that this was just because
Dumped backpack they stole on the wet ground
Ran over back pack and belonging and left
Molotov thrown
Cops let people through their line, then push the last (maybe press) gets shoved and cop tries to remove mask and pepper spray them, soaking the back of their neck.
To Latino dudes came across protest, have the cops shit, one was pepper sprayed, then they came back and arrested them. After tackling the second guy, they pepper sprayed him
Feds tearing up houseless people's tents and flipping their tables
Feds doing their usual tear gas unprovoked and then shoot into the cloud. #PortlandProtests
Watch girl in brown being told to walk in the direction she is going and then when she crosses police line is thrown to the ground
Cop comes behind guy with his hands up and shoves from behind.
Here is the cop that shoved dude from behind with his hands up listening to orders given by officer 25. Number 1004013
Notable things about tonight
- high energy crowd chanting & drumming lead by two black femmes interrupted because we were told we "shouldn't be drumming and dancing"
-multiple livestreamers telling protesters that filming arguments among protesters is necessary...
--Group of mainly livestreamers telling native dude heckling cops to "shut the fuck up" because we need to hear what officer 44 has to say

Echelon security is notorious for misconduct. Police & DA are aware, & the DA even sent a memo to staff about them. The city still works with them, as Echelon do things that are unconstitutional for cops. @VoteVasquez24 & @EliforPortland joined the Echelon podcast. THREAD 1/
Powerful attorney & apt owner, John DiLorenzo, hired Echelon to conduct surveillance on a camp near his building. He gave report to @SamAdamsPDX, who got police chief, Echelon & staffers in a room & suggested using it for political gain, including giving it to people4Portland

Sam Adams used this 40+pg Echelon report (that used white nationalist antifawatch as a source), while the DA is putting out a memo about Echelons lack of credibility. DiLorenzo who gave Adams the report, fought rent control & commonly defends developers 3/
Opening statements of Trial of Leftist journalist, Alissa Azar, started today. Trial is related to a Proud Boy protest, where she deployed mace toward PB's & a masked women who were stealing property of antifascists as they retreated from PB mob attack 1/
DA, Josh Cutino, had me excluded from court. He claims he might call me as a state witness. I obtained the first motion to dismiss for prosecutorial bias because no PBs were charged that day for crimes caught on video. Some videos were mine.
Garret Snipe, Tommy Campbell, Barry Johnson, Jonathon Donovan, Josh Dornon, Dick Clark and Aaron Hartley (there are more) were all captured on video being violent and received no charges.
@PDXreal1 blocked me after I posted damning court docs of Jeff's child porn charges & still they put out a statement full of lies, justifying his charges. He claims he was entrapped by feds, that he thought porn was a scam, bought them anyway & didn't actually watch them... 1/
First, he initiated the communication to buy. That is not entrapment. Second, 3 videos were clearly described graphically & he said he wanted to buy one of each. He then sent the money. Court docs showed what was siezed, including child porn. 2/
Church also claims that Feds didnt release all the messages. They legally are obligated to provide all the evidence they have against you. It's called discovery. And there is no message that would provide any context to the messages above. 3/
"Fix #measure110" coalition behind drug recriminalization is led & funded by the richest in #Portland & dark money group @People4Portland. Greg Goodman, a rich developer is in leadership.
All but a few thousand of the $750k raised came from #PDX developers & billionaires. 1/
13 contributions were over $1k. 4 were Goodman his development companies. Phil Knight donated 200k & Mary/Tim Boyle donated $300k. Both their companies (@Nike & @Columbia1938) lease space from Goodman. ~$1k of ~$750k came from donations less than $100. Mark Goodman is on PBA 2/
Dan Lavey of People for Portland & Gallatin, leads the coalition with Max Williams, the former head of corrections. The coalition also employs Greg Peden of Gallatin and Harrang Long, the legal team. They use Gallatin services. Leaders paying their own. 3/
Jeff Church of .@PDXReal1 was charged with "prostitution" in 2021. He plead down in 2022 with attendance of a sex buying accountability class. A local sex worker provided me court records. Unclear whether his partner Angela, was okay with this. 1/
Paying for sex isn't the issue here, it's PDX real's hypocrisy, when their whole grift surrounds the big boogie man, "crime". Jeff continually degrades and demonizes Sex workers. Notable that he went to Clackamas for sex and knows where all the sex workers are at. 2/
Lots of "criminals" surround them. Let's talk about a few...
Gabriel Johnson who cofounded .@save_pdx with Angela Todd, plead to a Theft 1 after stealing $16k 3/
Vancouver Proud Boy, Marc Bru, sentenced to 6yrs for his role in the #Jan6th riot. He talked in chats about overthrowing the Portland government. During sentencing for 7 charges he called the judge a "clown" and said he would do it all over again if he could.
Thread🧵 1/
Here is Marc Bru's initiation into the Columbia River Proud Boys. Notice the other proud boys in the video who are doing serious time. 2/
On twitter under his account @Bootlegger777, Marc spreads #Qanon conspiracies, including that Feds staged #Jan6, even though he was there. He also seems to think you can't be prosecuted without your consent (sovereign citizen stuff) 3/
