    Fuck off fascist-fellating magat!

    It’s fall. Leave Portland to what we like best— the return of cold wet weather, pumpkin spice, and street cart food. Get out of our city, it adds to the pollution.

    These antifa terrorists look truly deadly. Thank goodness we have people like Noem who are brave enough to stand at a safe distance on a high roof protected by armed police while talking shit about them.

        Not knowing who Benny Johnson is, I genuinely was reading this as the debunking-Noem left wing post. It’s amazing there is an audience who sees that and thinks a guy in a chicken costume justifies calling in the National Guard to wage war on our neighbors.

        But then, the enemy is simultaneously too weak and an object of derision (chicken costume guy), and too strong and a reason to suspend laws (12 terrifying people in casual clothes, most of them apparently press).

          Benny Johnson is a serious prolific MAGA influencer that has been invited out by the administration to cover Alligator Auschwitz in Florida. Benny’s podcast was also why Jimmy Kimmel’s show got suspended - a member of this Republican administration made a veiled threat about Kimmel on Benny’s podcast and that is why Disney took the show down.

          They do experience schadenfreude, however. Just don’t tell them that. They don’t know what the word means and it will confuse and anger them. (edit: corrected typo)

    I expect the White House to add “wearing a chicken suit” to their list of signs that somebody is a terrorist any moment now.

      Signs you might be antifa:

      • wearing a costume of any kind
      • feeling like a chicken today, or tomorrow
      • disliking Trump or his government
      • feeling that rules and rights should apply to everyone

      I mean, she loves murdering animals so much, maybe her instincts might have kicked in, and to protect the homeland or whatever (assuming she wasn’t strapped with some cosplay gunz), she would have had to choke that chicken herself…

    Ignoring the lack of actual protesters, I have never before seen the phrase “stares down” to mean “Watches from adjacent building while surrounded by own private army”.

      Yeah, she’s not staring down anyone. Not a single person.

      She’s just staring AT them. Actually, considering the angle and total removal from the event in question, she’s more spying on them… You know, like a pervert.

    A few of the YT channels doing political news have shown how much of this mess is created propaganda to use for clips for MAGA to show the “danger” and how manly and awesome ICE is “protecting” the country.

      No idea. Anyways, I’m just going to the local animal shelter with my gang to ‘stare down’ some donkeys, and horses, and cats, and goats!! from the safety of being behind the railings, of course.

    So she looked out a roof toward them. How is that starring them down. So she goes to a fenced and guarded facility surrounded by her goons and looks at the reporters and chicken guy from the roof and their reaction:

    "The crowd appeared nonviolent, though they were shouting at Noem. One person, using some sort of megaphone, taunted the secretary and other law enforcement officials, referring to a Subway sandwich, the kind which was previously thrown at federal law enforcement who were deployed in Washington, D.C., and Noem’s dog, which she admitted to shooting in her memoir. "

      The sillier, the better. They were hoping for video clips of brave soldiers holding back hordes of scary villains. Videos of brutal, masked thugs beating citizens in funny costumes doesn’t quite have the same effect.

      She might have to go out and murder one of her dogs and/or some of her goats just to prove how big of a dong she has.
