Stay safe out there y'all.

If you're biking nekkid, the high for today is only about 53° F, so make sure you have a plan to warm back up.

If you're *not* nekkid, it's a good idea to have the jail support number written discreetly somewhere on your body where it won't be easily rubbed off.

Check out today’s volunteer depave for a subsistence community garden at the bike works community hub in east Portland 🧵

ICE drag girl out of car & body slam her to ground—then pin her face down & kneel on her neck.

"I'm 15!" she cries out. "I'm not resisting!"

Agents have now asked multiple area housing associations to unlock main doors—so they can go door to door.

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.

He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.

The thing about what is happening now out of Portland is so much is not real!

People who are pretending to be journalists on social media are starting from a political position and then gathering short clips to try and push the government's message.

Right-wing influencers shape nation and Trump’s understanding of Portland protests

Social media personalities, conservative media outlets and the Trump administration itself are blending online content to serve the administration’s policies.

No, Portlanders aren’t “living in hell.” But even if we were, it wouldn’t justify a military takeover.

A wonderful family in our neighborhood will soon lose the home they've been renting for over a decade from REACH, a local housing non-profit that is selling all of their houses to a for-profit business. One home in the neighborhood has already been sold and flipped at market rate. More will follow.

Pretty clear Stephen Miller, Noem, Hegseth and Trump are trying to provoke a Civil War at this point. What's interesting is they want to do it now, because even though they're unpopular, they seem to believe this is the most popular they'll be ever again. We can't let them win.
