Attorneys for the DOJ argue Portland's ICE building closed for 22 days this summer, halting operations. Reporting by @troywb.bsky.social and @tonyschick.bsky.social shows that's... not exactly accurate. www.opb.org/article/2025...

Two things felt different to the ppl I spoke with who’d been protesting at the ICE building for months. 1st was the sheer volume of tear gas, pepper balls and flash-bangs used, seemingly unprovoked. 2nd was seeing so many videographers/live-streamers embedded with the feds as they marched out.

Hours after a federal judge paused the Trump administration’s plans to deploy 200 members of the Oregon National Guard to Portland, federal law enforcement officers escalated the tactics used on protesters in the city. Troy and I were on the ground:

Neil Olshey fuming he couldn’t get this many guards to Portland.

A trolly for scenic history along Portland’s waterfront stopped by near the city’s ICE protests this afternoon.
