Drumtifa is making some noise tonight. https://twitter.com/EmoryMort/status/1286892156762775553
War Crime Wolf looks stupid again tonight. He should really withdraw his troops. We're just getting bigger and stronger as the days go by.
Lawtifa came out earlier and is doing an encore tonight: https://twitter.com/rachelbusygrl/status/1286879998511427585
It seems like PPB undercounted on antifa and anarchists quite significantly. Uh oh.
Some say there's a paramilitary convention taking place in the courthouse but the attendees haven't come out yet.
This was in a protest video earlier and it's now been on repeat all day on my Spotify:

In case you haven't seen the people's lawyer yet. Make sure to tell him thank you for all his advocacy. Then tell him I'm going to call him at 2am and I expect him to pick-up the phone. https://twitter.com/inafutureage/status/1286882508609478658
Guess Trump and Wolf fucked around and found out: https://twitter.com/ambrown/status/1286894850760032257

Medtifa is a part of the frontline and that makes me happy. https://twitter.com/gravemorgan/status/1286896158787346433
Teachtifa is out here too: https://twitter.com/Clypian/status/1286884332729073664

Serious props to @LFTEOTW for the streams tonight and every night.
I see people without masks. Hand them one!
Dogtifa spotting:
You don't need to speculate on this. You can book it. They are. https://twitter.com/KATUNews/status/1286891775081078784
Signal boosting the homies at @Bitchwitch20. Get them what they need. https://twitter.com/Bitchwitch20/status/1286899915608604672
ICYMI: Great analysis from @arunindy on this piece talking about how PPB/MCSO were coordinating with the Feds for quite some time. Remember, even though PPB pulled out of that agreement MCSO hasn't yet. https://twitter.com/theintercept/status/1286899768569077761
First stress test of the night at the fence. Wonder who the engineer was on that project.
This is my jam. https://twitter.com/candaceforpdx/status/1286902055336988672
Somewhere PPB LRAD sits in shame..."this is the Portland Police Burea...I miss (tear gassing) you."
Feds are rioting again.
This is the Federal Non-Protective Service: "we're here to commit war crimes."
Wall of Moms to the Frontline.
Some people definitely did not skip leg day this week.
The doors of hell have been opened.
More gas out. PNW Wind Power to the Front.
Nothing like resistance energy yall.
The gas is withdrawing from the energy of the wind resistance.
I'm fairly certain the Feds are being blinded by their own tear gas.
This is what community looks like. https://twitter.com/livkittykat/status/1286906417463533569
The gas from the frontline has seemingly been cleared.
Can someone link me to the "DO NOT SHAKE FENCE," statute?
Feds aggressive pushing the frontline.
The imperial march is playing as the Feds terrorize Portland yet again.
#WarCrimeWolf strikes again. He's deploying his paramilitaries to a city near you.
Feds trying to shoot up #PNWWindPower.
Seriously impressive: https://twitter.com/PortlandDSA/status/1286908667741089792
Gassing the people you're supposed to be serving to own the libs. The stupid strategy of #WarCrimeWolf.
Tear gas shot into the park.
#PNWWindPower really pushing the tear gas back.
I think we need a "You about to a lose your fence remix."
Portland has retaken the frontline.
The Feds think this is acceptable behavior: https://twitter.com/hungrybowtie/status/1286596817795178497
More pepper balls being deployed.
All they do is grilll grill grill...no matter what.
Feds deploying to the fence again.
Medics have been on it tonight.
Feds getting blinded by their own tear gas again. #PNWWindPower is ridiculously strong.
