"On August 5th, so-called Canadian police forces attempted to enforce an injunction by raiding the land reclamation site, but were met with mass, militant community resistance. According to Real People’s Media, people surrounded police cars and pushed them out of the area. Tires were set on fire on the roadway and train tracks; creating burning barricades. That night, construction equipment was also set on fire. Police made several arrests and rubber bullets were also fired. Media reports that clashes with police also broke out, leading to rocks being thrown. According to one report, someone is also reported to have “thrown a porta-potty onto a police car from a railway bridge.” "

You know what's fucking infuriating? We've been protesting and rioting for 2 months!
Many cities have not had a single night of no protests. But what do the democrats do? They pick a cop to represent the vice presidency position.
If this isn't an esclation and a spit in our faces, I don't know what it is.
Are we going to lay down and take the beating or are we going to show them we don't tolerate being spat on by racist, sexist, and transphobic fucks.
It's time to raise our voices louder than ever. We deserve better than the millionaires in charge of the systems of governance right now.
They're not untouchable. They're not even competent. They're not even intelligent.
They have shown their disdain for us. They've shown their contempt for black lives.
It's time we rise up and show them that we want a government for the people. By the people.
Fuck you Kamala. Your actions have made the lives of millions of people worse. Your actions have led to thousands losing years of their lives in prison. Your actions have led to thousands of kids of the future generation growing up in poverty and/or without guardianship.

"What also raises eyebrows among Portland lawyers is the feds' rationale for claiming jurisdiction: Because Portland and Multnomah County are recipients of federal aid, including COVID relief funding, the federal government has authority to prosecute crimes on those properties." ...
""I believe that Portland is Trump's petri dish," says Sean Riddell, a former Multnomah County prosecutor. "His people know, 'When we test a controversial policy out, we test it in Portland and see how it plays.' I think they're gonna see how this plays.""
