Speaker 1: around Up up until July, there was relatively little on
Speaker 1: a national level that separated Portland's bill and cotests from
Speaker 1: the ones happening everywhere else. A few shots of tear
Speaker 1: gas walls had gone viral in the mainstream media, and
Speaker 1: live streams of Portland protests were popular among a certain set,
Speaker 1: but as far as the big networks were concerned, Portland
Speaker 1: was just another city convulsed with riots in the summer
Speaker 1: of That all changed in July. It started with the
Speaker 1: siege of the Federal Courthouse on July fourth. While that
Speaker 1: was going on in the streets of the Rose City
Speaker 1: up north in Seattle, an activist named Summer Taylor died
Speaker 1: that night after a car plowed through a b l
Speaker 1: in March. On the eighth, activists in Portland staged a
Speaker 1: memorial vigil for Taylor. This was disrupted by a small
Speaker 1: squad of federal agents who hit the crowd with flash
Speaker 1: bangs and impact rounds as they lit candles. Feelings were raw,
Speaker 1: but the crowd gathered near the Justice Center that night
Speaker 1: numbered less than a hundred. You could be forgiven for
Speaker 1: thinking that the battle of July four had been the
Speaker 1: last gasp of a dying movement. Outside of the attack
Speaker 1: on the vigil, the rest of the week followed the
Speaker 1: same pattern established in June, tiny groups of rag activists
Speaker 1: being horribly beaten by riot lines of cops. It was
Speaker 1: exactly one week later, on July eleven, that everything changed.
Speaker 1: That night, a twenty six year old protester named Donovan
Speaker 1: Labella was shot in the head at close range by
Speaker 1: a U. S. Marshal armed with an impact weapon. His
Speaker 1: skull was shattered. Donovan nearly died. Video of the unprovoked
Speaker 1: attack went viral nationwide. Our own Garrison Davis was standing
Speaker 1: just a few feet behind Donovan when he was shot.
Speaker 1: Here's how Garrison recalls that night. So I got downtown
Speaker 1: around nine pm, kind of just a regular time to
Speaker 1: arrive usually that's like a bit before action starts. But
Speaker 1: when I got there, the streets around the courthouse and
Speaker 1: Justice Center were already filled with here gas, Um, there's
Speaker 1: already Feds out in the streets. Um. It was unclear
Speaker 1: what got them out. Um. It turns out it's just
Speaker 1: because people were on the were on like the courtyard.
Speaker 1: So there's already already people in the streets and stuff
Speaker 1: and Feds in the streets by the time I arrived.
Speaker 1: And then the Feds got pushed back into, uh into
Speaker 1: like the courtyard by a small group of activists UM
Speaker 1: on like Fourth Avenue. And then they started when when
Speaker 1: the Feds were on the courtyard, they just started shooting
Speaker 1: like canisters from their grenade launcher. So yeah, this is like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, I've only been there like ten minutes
Speaker 1: at this point. All this is happening very very quickly. Um,
Speaker 1: and the Feds shoot off like five canisters in a
Speaker 1: row that are all like duds. They don't actually do anything. Um,
Speaker 1: and one of them lands underneath the car, and a
Speaker 1: young man holding a boombox kind of like kicks it
Speaker 1: out from under the car because it was like sparking,
Speaker 1: but it wasn't like doing anything. It wasn't like exploding
Speaker 1: or shooting off any gas. And then after he after
Speaker 1: he get kicked it out of the out of under
Speaker 1: the car, he picked up just to boombox and was
Speaker 1: standing in the standing on the sidewalk across the street
Speaker 1: from the courthouse. I was like five feet was right,
Speaker 1: and then he just got shot in the head. Um.
Speaker 1: After yeah, it was just just standing there with a
Speaker 1: boom box, and he collapsed, collapse from the ground. I
Speaker 1: remember hearing. I mean I heard that the shot and
Speaker 1: I heard the fall. I didn't see him fall, and
Speaker 1: but by the time I looked over, um, he was
Speaker 1: on the ground, bleeding out of his head. And you know,
Speaker 1: very quickly people came over and grabbed him. The thing,
Speaker 1: the thing that sticks out most is when when they
Speaker 1: when they grabbed him and pulled him away, just how
Speaker 1: limp his body was like it was a very lifeless body.
Speaker 1: His head was like bobbing everywhere, which probably wasn't you know,
Speaker 1: it wasn't great. Um. You should, you know, when you're
Speaker 1: picking someone up like that, you should try to make
Speaker 1: sure that doesn't happen. Um. But yeah, it was, it was.
Speaker 1: It was. He was just so lifeless, um in that
Speaker 1: in that moment um they took him into the into
Speaker 1: the park, se medics started, you know, people, people yelled,
Speaker 1: medic medic. Medics came over, started to um, you know,
Speaker 1: try to stop the bleeding, and an ambliance came about
Speaker 1: like ten fifteen minutes later. But like it, it felt
Speaker 1: it felt a lot longer. You know, it felt like
Speaker 1: they were taking forever to arrive. Um. But there's a
Speaker 1: lot a lot of blood on the sidewalk, a lot
Speaker 1: of a lot of blood in the park. The grass
Speaker 1: was like soaked. Donovan very nearly died from his injuries.
Speaker 1: As we write this episode in December, he's just recently
Speaker 1: been released from the hospital following another round of treatment
Speaker 1: for the infections caused by his injuries. He has suffered
Speaker 1: permanent cognitive damage. The brutality with which Donovan was assaulted
Speaker 1: enraged Portlanders, even those who had not previously been active
Speaker 1: in the streets. Rage was further stoked by poor coverage
Speaker 1: by local mainstream sources like The Oregonian, who responded to
Speaker 1: this brutal attack on a young man wielding a boom
Speaker 1: box by grenade launcher wielding Feds with an article full
Speaker 1: of expert analysis on why it had happened. Those experts
Speaker 1: included a retired commander with the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department
Speaker 1: who insisted the shot, which was taken from about thirty
Speaker 1: feet away, had to have been an accident. Quote. Nobody
Speaker 1: anywhere in the world that I am aware of, is
Speaker 1: taught to aim for the head unless deadly force is
Speaker 1: also authorized. In this particular case, there is no rational
Speaker 1: way to say that deadly force was authorized. Overall, the
Speaker 1: article was crafted to leave the reader with the opinion
Speaker 1: that Labella's injuries must have been a tragic accident in
Speaker 1: the heat of the moment, rather than an angry and
Speaker 1: undisciplined federal agent choosing to permanently injure a twenty six
Speaker 1: year old armed with speakers. The good news is that
Speaker 1: no one bought it. Portland News were outraged by what
Speaker 1: happened to Donovan. More protesters began to trickle into the
Speaker 1: nightly demonstrations outside the Justice Center, which switched their attention
Speaker 1: to the adjacent Federal courthouse. Connor O'shay had gotten his
Speaker 1: start attending Rose City justice marches. He switched over to
Speaker 1: attending the nightly confrontations against the police after he got
Speaker 1: bored of marches that seemed to go nowhere. I'd be like, wait,
Speaker 1: what's going down by the Justice Center? What's happening over there?
Speaker 1: I want to go over there. Why is everybody going
Speaker 1: back home? Uh? Like the sun's still out, like this
Speaker 1: is I want to go see what's happening over there.
Speaker 1: And then started doing that and then was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: this feels right. This feels like you know, like not
Speaker 1: not to say like that, um, you know, having march
Speaker 1: during the day with like speeches like like you know,
Speaker 1: all the protesting is valid, But I was definitely attracted
Speaker 1: to like showing up at the sources like the biggest,
Speaker 1: the gnarliest symbols of what what people are protesting against.
Speaker 1: Connor watched as the protest dwindled, and he saw how
Speaker 1: the introduction of heavily armed federal agents and the outrage
Speaker 1: over Donovan's injury started drawing more people out into the
Speaker 1: streets before the FED showed up, Um, it really felt
Speaker 1: like they were losing a lot of not necessarily momentum,
Speaker 1: but just like people showing up, numbers were kind of
Speaker 1: coming down a little bit, which is to be expected.
Speaker 1: But yeah, when they did make an appearance, like aggressive appearances,
Speaker 1: it totally it was it totally served as a catalyst
Speaker 1: for further like like when when they shouldn't know by now,
Speaker 1: like when they show up, uh, you know, cops and feds, um,
Speaker 1: when they when they show their face, it's like almost
Speaker 1: always worst um, like in terms of like a crowd response, um,
Speaker 1: which I kind of love. UM. So so when they
Speaker 1: showed up, it was like like almost immediately everyone was
Speaker 1: should like turning turning back up um in in huge numbers.
Speaker 1: So that was it was just so funny to me
Speaker 1: that they that they kind of kept doing what they
Speaker 1: were doing, um, when the crowd response was just getting
Speaker 1: amplified by their presence. Many in the movement were rejuvenated
Speaker 1: by the fact that protest numbers were growing again. After
Speaker 1: so many nights of watching Tinier and Tinier groups get
Speaker 1: brutalized by the Portland police. It was stirring to feel
Speaker 1: like people cared again. Mark Pettibone's first night out had
Speaker 1: been June one, and like Connor, he'd been dismayed as
Speaker 1: numbers fell off throughout that month. He kept coming out though,
Speaker 1: and he was out protesting near the Federal Courthouse with
Speaker 1: Connor when the night of July fourteenth turned into the
Speaker 1: early morning of July. It was actually a relatively uneventful
Speaker 1: night in terms of clashes between protesters in the cops. UM.
Speaker 1: The PPV showed up, I think once to kind of
Speaker 1: remove some barricades that people had set up in the
Speaker 1: street in front of the UM the courthouse, and the
Speaker 1: Feds made a really kind of quick uh they came
Speaker 1: out of building to UM if you're facing the Justice Center,
Speaker 1: that came out of the building to the right briefly
Speaker 1: and then retreated back in. And so honestly, that night
Speaker 1: I spent what I remember from early in the night
Speaker 1: was I was playing frisbee with people in the park.
Speaker 1: We were just hanging out. UM. There wasn't much too
Speaker 1: kind of be angry at UM, at least visibly. The
Speaker 1: Feds weren't out and about. Uh So Mark and I
Speaker 1: were like, all right, this has been good. It's been fine.
Speaker 1: I guess, um, not much going on. Let's get out
Speaker 1: of here. We've got to work tomorrow. We just we
Speaker 1: had just gotten out of work a couple hours before, so,
Speaker 1: like midnight or one clock rolls around and we're leaving,
Speaker 1: and as we're walking back to his car, we kind
Speaker 1: of get stopped by some protesters on the corner of
Speaker 1: the street there just a couple of blocks away, and
Speaker 1: and uh they warned us that they had seen or
Speaker 1: that people have seen and Mark vans kidnapping people. Um.
Speaker 1: And so we're looking around and sure enough, right then
Speaker 1: a van pulls up right in front of us, seemingly
Speaker 1: out of nowhere. Um, and a bunch of guys in
Speaker 1: military fatigues jump out. I look in it. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: they're probably FEDS. I don't know. It's a it's a
Speaker 1: fucking minivan full of guys and fatigues, cameo fatigues. Uh.
Speaker 1: They opened the doors. Everybody but the driver gets out.
Speaker 1: They start they start just walking straight towards us. Uh,
Speaker 1: and we're like, what what the what? What what the fuck?
Speaker 1: And there's you know, there's traffic behind us. Um. I
Speaker 1: remember Mark and I like almost getting hit by a
Speaker 1: car that had to stop because we're like, oh, I
Speaker 1: think we need to run. So we all take off
Speaker 1: in different directions. You know, there's no no identification um
Speaker 1: visually and also audibly. You know, they didn't say stop,
Speaker 1: we are you know so and so it was just
Speaker 1: immediate and uh so we we kind of you know,
Speaker 1: we ran for our lives and they ended up the
Speaker 1: people and the fatigues who ended up being the Feds.
Speaker 1: They chased me down one one chased me down on foot.
Speaker 1: Um So I ran, I'll see west and made it
Speaker 1: a few blocks, took a turn and heard the van
Speaker 1: kind of accelerating up the hill cut me off, and
Speaker 1: uh so I dropped to my knees and I asked
Speaker 1: why um several times. That was all I could form. Honestly,
Speaker 1: I wasn't like why, why is this happening and I
Speaker 1: being detained? It was just why? And uh so they
Speaker 1: they lifted me up, UM, off my knees, put me
Speaker 1: in the van, um, pulled my knee over my head,
Speaker 1: patted me down. UM asked if I had weapons, and
Speaker 1: you know, I said no. Uh And at this point
Speaker 1: I I it was kind of this weird. You know,
Speaker 1: people always talking about these out of body experiences, and I,
Speaker 1: you know, I had no experience with any of that
Speaker 1: until this happened. Mark booked it. Um west, I went south.
Speaker 1: I was kind of running next to somebody for a minute, uh,
Speaker 1: like you know, maybe fifteen ten seconds, and then I
Speaker 1: cut up another kind of a block west. After I
Speaker 1: got one block south, I think the FED that was
Speaker 1: the FED or FEDS that were after me and this person. Like,
Speaker 1: I think they either went after that person or like
Speaker 1: they forgot about me or something. Maybe it was just
Speaker 1: because I was able to run faster. I hucked my
Speaker 1: sign that I've been carrying. Got it back the next morning.
Speaker 1: That was cool. UM huck my sign that I was carrying,
Speaker 1: and UM running up another block uh, fucking like scared
Speaker 1: for my life, I was able to be like, I
Speaker 1: just don't talk to these people. UM. At this point,
Speaker 1: I was pretty sure that it was the FEDS, UM,
Speaker 1: and it wasn't some kind of rogue, you know, militia group.
Speaker 1: And I figured the best thing for me to do
Speaker 1: at that point was just to shut up and um
Speaker 1: and get through and asked for a lawyer when the
Speaker 1: time comes. UM. At that point, I hit a dark
Speaker 1: street and I see what is either that same van
Speaker 1: or a different van cut across in front of me
Speaker 1: going north. I think that was they were trying to
Speaker 1: find Mark. And at that point I looked looked over
Speaker 1: and saw I forget what the name of the it
Speaker 1: was another courthouse, of course, because there's like a d
Speaker 1: down there. Um. I I look at this like concrete,
Speaker 1: um ailing whatever you wanna call that, um, out front
Speaker 1: of this courthouse. And I'm like there and okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: they're I'm going to jump this. I sprint across once
Speaker 1: the van gets out of sight, because they started to
Speaker 1: loop back around the block. Yeah, sprint, jump over it,
Speaker 1: jump over the little barricade. And UM. At this point
Speaker 1: I didn't I was sure they were going to get me. Um.
Speaker 1: The only thing I could think to do was to
Speaker 1: shut my phone off, which I now no can still
Speaker 1: be traced, which is also horrific. But I have a
Speaker 1: Faraday bag for that now, so that's great. UM. But
Speaker 1: I shut my phone off. I hear more like another
Speaker 1: van or to assume, UM driving by like very kind
Speaker 1: of erratically, like gunning it and then slowing down. UM.
Speaker 1: I heard like that. I think that was them. I'm
Speaker 1: not positive I heard someone in a in like boots
Speaker 1: with some jingling going on walk past. Um. I just
Speaker 1: like tucked up against this barricade. Um. And it was
Speaker 1: just like as quiet as I could be for I
Speaker 1: don't know how long, half hour, an hour, until I
Speaker 1: was able to get in touch with a friend. They
Speaker 1: booked it across the river. They showed up I they
Speaker 1: opened the back door of this car, jumped in, stayed
Speaker 1: laying on my back like I don't I don't think
Speaker 1: we covered me up with anything. But it was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it was terrifying enough to be like, I don't know
Speaker 1: why why they targeted at us. So yeah, I got
Speaker 1: out of there and then get a call from Mark
Speaker 1: relatively quickly after I got to the other side of
Speaker 1: the river. I was like, like, because we we friends
Speaker 1: were texting, I think like Emily and and another friend
Speaker 1: of ours. Like we were like they were like, OK,
Speaker 1: we can't get in touch with Mark. We think they
Speaker 1: got them. They did have Mark, but thankfully he'd broken
Speaker 1: absolutely no law. The agents who had snatched him had
Speaker 1: probably hoped that he'd be rattled enough by the whole
Speaker 1: experience to answer whatever questions they asked When he refused
Speaker 1: to talk without a lawyer present, they had no choice
Speaker 1: but to let him go. The whole thing took about
Speaker 1: two hours, maybe even less. And uh so I was
Speaker 1: released with one other person, and I believe it was
Speaker 1: one of the protesters that I had been standing next
Speaker 1: to um in the street when the vans first pulled up. UM.
Speaker 1: I think they ended up picking them up as well.
Speaker 1: So they released the two of us at the same time.
Speaker 1: And you know, this is after they read me my
Speaker 1: rights once I was shackled and in a cell um
Speaker 1: and asked if I wanted to waive them UM, and
Speaker 1: I said no, I want to talk to the lawyer. UM.
Speaker 1: So after that they came by again and said, okay,
Speaker 1: you're free to go. That same night, a local activist
Speaker 1: filmed federal agents and camouflage and military gear snatching another
Speaker 1: black clad protester and dragging him into an unmarked rental van.
Speaker 1: The video was horrifying, the kind of blatantly dystopian police
Speaker 1: state ship that couldn't not provoke a national response, and
Speaker 1: it did. Within a day, the video had been viewed
Speaker 1: millions and millions of times. The story broke nationwide in
Speaker 1: the seventeen when The Washington Post BuzzFeed and basically every
Speaker 1: major news source reported on Portland's federal snatch vans. Now
Speaker 1: we have some video that was posted to Twitter from
Speaker 1: last night. The post says that federal officers rushed up
Speaker 1: and arrested someone for no reason. Unmarked police vehicles. They're
Speaker 1: not even they're not police vehicles, They're just vehicles. They're
Speaker 1: rentable vans. They're like consumer rentable vans filled with guys
Speaker 1: in paramilitary gear who are supposedly federal policeman. Unmarked vans
Speaker 1: of unleashed tear gas into crowds, rounded up and detained protesters,
Speaker 1: and even shot one man in the head with a
Speaker 1: non lethal round, causing serious injury. Their presence and their tactics,
Speaker 1: and raised questions about the use of federal agencies to
Speaker 1: police cities even when local authorities don't want them there.

Speaker 1: enraged people, but it was the federal snatch fans that
Speaker 1: would finally radicalize thousands of Portland's liberal majority to take
Speaker 1: to the streets. It was on the night of Ight
Speaker 1: that the first group of what would become the Wall
Speaker 1: of Moms showed up to protest the Feds. We'll talk
Speaker 1: about them in a second, but first, here's Garrison to
Speaker 1: explain another important action that occurred the same night. The
Speaker 1: militarized FEDS had captured Portland's imagination. But as the Quote
Speaker 1: fed war started to ramp up, protesters who had been
Speaker 1: fighting the police for weeks didn't want people to forget
Speaker 1: the reason all of this had happened in the first place.
Speaker 1: They organized a rally simply titled Quote Abolished the Police
Speaker 1: for June eighteenth at Peninsula Park in North Portland. The
Speaker 1: event was boosted by groups such as the YLF and
Speaker 1: Direct Action Alliance, people who were generally trusted within the
Speaker 1: community of veteran activists. The last time a protest had
Speaker 1: been held at Peninsula Park was June. The crowd had
Speaker 1: marched to the Portland Police Association building, which had been
Speaker 1: surrounded by dozens of armed cops. Police quickly pushed the
Speaker 1: crowd away using Truncheon's grenade launchers and tear gas. It
Speaker 1: shouldn't be surprised, seeing then, that the crowd of several
Speaker 1: hundred who showed up on the eighteenth came expecting a fight.
Speaker 1: Banners at the front of the march included quote Chad
Speaker 1: Wolfe listens to Nickelback mocking the acting DHS director, who
Speaker 1: had just visited Portland a few days prior and also
Speaker 1: spoke with the p p A. Other banners read de
Speaker 1: colonize and mourned the dead, fight like hell for the living.
Speaker 1: One banner read Quantas. Hayes was only seventeen years old.
Speaker 1: In February seen Portland police shot and killed Kawanas Hayes,
Speaker 1: an unarmed teenage Black Portlander. When they shot Kawanas, he
Speaker 1: was on his knees ten to fifteen feet away from officers,
Speaker 1: aiming guns and shouting contradictorary commands. Officer Andrew Hurst, who
Speaker 1: was providing quote long cover with his Air fifteen, fired
Speaker 1: three shots at the teen when Kwanas reportedly moved his
Speaker 1: hands from a of his head. At the same time
Speaker 1: Kanas was shot from moving his hands, other officers were
Speaker 1: ordering him to get face down on the ground with
Speaker 1: his hands by his sides. The Portland Police use of
Speaker 1: force investigation found no wrongdoing on the part of Officer
Speaker 1: Andrew Hurst. He still walks around with a badge and
Speaker 1: a gun today. The lead use of force investigator on
Speaker 1: that case was Detective Eric Camemer, but Portland protesters might
Speaker 1: know him better as the notorious Officer sixties seven. Speaking
Speaker 1: as a journalist who has watched the Portland Police riot
Speaker 1: team and action officer Camemra is quite possibly the most
Speaker 1: violent man I have ever met. All of this was
Speaker 1: on the mind of the press in attendance. When the
Speaker 1: crowd departed Peninsula Park at around eight pm, we suspected
Speaker 1: they would head straight for the Police Union building, but
Speaker 1: that's not what happened. The people at the front of
Speaker 1: the march headed in that direction at first, but as
Speaker 1: the crowd got close to the union building, they made
Speaker 1: a sudden turn, confusing the police, probably some protesters. The
Speaker 1: march went on southward for about half an hour, chanting
Speaker 1: along the way. Soon enough, the crowd arrived at the
Speaker 1: surprise destination, the Portland Police North Precinct. Only a handful
Speaker 1: of officers were present when the group of marchers approached
Speaker 1: the building, and said officers quickly moved inside. As they did,
Speaker 1: hundreds of people chanted quit your Job. Protesters hung out
Speaker 1: in the precinct parking lot for almost an hour. Officers
Speaker 1: had been so surprised by their arrival that a police
Speaker 1: car was left sitting unattended in the middle of the crowd.
Speaker 1: It was tagged with graffiti and a bananappeal was placed
Speaker 1: on its hood, but nothing else. As was inevitable, The
Speaker 1: police el Red eventually arrived and ordered the crowd to
Speaker 1: leave under threat of arrest and tear gas. On previous evenings,
Speaker 1: the crowd would have just stood around, defiant and eating
Speaker 1: to get all beaten up and gassed, but tonight was different.
Speaker 1: As the el Rad blared threats, people in the crowd
Speaker 1: yelled b water, echoing a Hong Kong slogan, and the
Speaker 1: crowd began to move once again back to north mL
Speaker 1: cable of art fether to follow this direction based offic
Speaker 1: you to arrest, citation or used of mores, including crowd
Speaker 1: control munitions. The tactical decision to move after the el
Speaker 1: rad's warning apparently bamboozled the police, as the nearly five
Speaker 1: hundred protesters were able to swiftly march north to the
Speaker 1: completely unguarded p p A building. Dumpsters were overturned to
Speaker 1: block the street, and protesters in black block assembled a
Speaker 1: makeshift battering ram out of random materials. Nearby. No one
Speaker 1: said anything, but the crowd knew what was about to happen.
Speaker 1: People were going to enter the Police Union building. Dumpster
Speaker 1: fires were started to block the police from seeing what
Speaker 1: was happening. In due time, the el rad arrived and
Speaker 1: an audibly nervous l RAT operator ordered people not to
Speaker 1: enter the p p A police here visit the residential area.
Speaker 1: We noticed criminal activity occurring in this crowd. At the office.
Speaker 1: You'll be study to arrest up to include crowd control munitions.
Speaker 1: But for the Portland police it was too little, too late.
Speaker 1: People had already broken through the front door of the
Speaker 1: police Union building and lit a small fire inside. As
Speaker 1: soon as the riot police arrived, the crowd began dispersing.
Speaker 1: People had no desire to fight the cops this night.
Speaker 1: They'd achieved their goal and now it was time to run.
Speaker 1: Like how, police chase the crowd for a few blocks,
Speaker 1: shooting off tear gas, tackling and arresting anyone they could
Speaker 1: get their hands on during bullrushes. As the dwindling group
Speaker 1: of protesters entered residential side streets, it was more difficult
Speaker 1: for the police to follow and easier for small affinity
Speaker 1: groups to break off and disperse. It was in these
Speaker 1: residential streets that the vast majority of protesters six TESSI
Speaker 1: really lost not only the cops but also the small
Speaker 1: group of journalists who are jogging to keep up. When
Speaker 1: we interviewed some folks with the y LS, the Youth
Speaker 1: Liberation Front, they mentioned this night as a sort of
Speaker 1: turning point for some protesters. Newer people realized what could
Speaker 1: be done by a crowd that was cunning and disciplined
Speaker 1: and committed to not getting the pists beaten out of
Speaker 1: them by the police. Here's the y LS as a reminder.
Speaker 1: We redumped the audio due to the constant death threats
Speaker 1: against these literal children. I think eventually people just got
Speaker 1: burnt out and realized like something had to change, and
Speaker 1: we did start like making Twitter threads suggesting some changes,
Speaker 1: and so maybe that push things in that direction. And
Speaker 1: I think people have started to have been sizing up
Speaker 1: the opponents more realistically and finding cops may have worked
Speaker 1: in like the first few days of the uprising, but
Speaker 1: we honestly like in the protests that are happening now,
Speaker 1: they don't have enough resources to like effectively push them back,
Speaker 1: and the cops have a bunch of experience with crowd controls.
Speaker 1: So yeah, and I think I think now like since
Speaker 1: all this time has passed. There's enough points that you
Speaker 1: can point to and see this was an effective tactic
Speaker 1: in reference to being water, like the first time p
Speaker 1: PA was set on fire, the way people were able
Speaker 1: to move in and out. And I don't remember how
Speaker 1: many people got arrested that night, but it was it
Speaker 1: was definitely, I mean, it was definitely less than the
Speaker 1: normal amount. And I think that was the big first
Speaker 1: instance of people being able to point this tactic used
Speaker 1: in Portland and be like, see effectiveness. This worked. That's
Speaker 1: got people home safe to an extent. We mentioned quote
Speaker 1: being water a few times now. This was a term
Speaker 1: for a tactic used during the Hong Kong uprising. It
Speaker 1: derives its name from a famous Bruce Lee quote that
Speaker 1: Hong Kong activists repurposed as a guide for how to
Speaker 1: move in situations where police are chasing you. The quote
Speaker 1: reads like this, be like water making its way through
Speaker 1: the cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object,
Speaker 1: and you shall find your way around it or through it.
Speaker 1: If nothing within you stays rigid outward, things will disclose themselves, empty.
Speaker 1: Your mind be formless, shapeless, like water. If you put
Speaker 1: water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put
Speaker 1: water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You
Speaker 1: put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now
Speaker 1: water can flow or can crash? Be water, my friend.
Speaker 1: Here's how the Wire Left describes Portland's process of learning
Speaker 1: to be water. To some extent, it was being exposed
Speaker 1: to the tactics of the Hong Kong protest, but a
Speaker 1: lot of doctrines weren't really adopted. But I think also
Speaker 1: there has been a lot of trial and air because
Speaker 1: people have tried a lot of stuff that didn't work
Speaker 1: and they got their ship fucked, and I just think
Speaker 1: that has been the best way to learn what works,
Speaker 1: especially in our unique conditions. I think a big part
Speaker 1: of people embracing becoming water that as a tactic was
Speaker 1: getting fed up with getting her kicked out of them.
Speaker 1: Well like like I mean, okay, I mean staying and
Speaker 1: fighting the police is usually not the right tactical decision
Speaker 1: because in Portland we have an extremely militarized police force
Speaker 1: and they're always going to be better equipped than us.
Speaker 1: That's how it's going to be. And so you have
Speaker 1: to think about, like what am I what is the
Speaker 1: risk versus the reward of staying and fighting this cop
Speaker 1: versus just disappearing in the night to fight another day.
Speaker 1: And I think that goes hand in hand with the
Speaker 1: decentralization of the movement. When, like you know, when it
Speaker 1: had like when there were marches with people leading with
Speaker 1: megaphones walking around and then suddenly the police show up
Speaker 1: and you have your conflict. People didn't have the agency
Speaker 1: or their own agency to really disappear into the night
Speaker 1: and move on from that. Like people felt obligated to
Speaker 1: follow somebody. So I definitely think that played a role
Speaker 1: in Portland moving towards decentralization also played a role in that. Now,
Speaker 1: my colleague Beatrix is going to explain what happened in
Speaker 1: downtown Portland in front of the Justice Center in the
Speaker 1: Federal Courthouse at the same time as the rally at
Speaker 1: the Portland Police Association. While about five people had gathered
Speaker 1: in North Portland, don Ju, around a thousand had gathered
Speaker 1: downtown at the Justice Center and the adjacent Federal Courthouse.
Speaker 1: Signs reading Unquelled referenced the statement by President Trump days
Speaker 1: earlier that Portland had been out of control and that
Speaker 1: federal presence had very much quelled it on the sixte
Speaker 1: Homeland Security Director Chad Wolfe had made national headlines when
Speaker 1: he visited Portland and referred to protesters there as violent
Speaker 1: anarchists sixty times. In a single press statement discussing the
Speaker 1: use of fireworks by protesters on July four, Wolfe declared,
Speaker 1: perhaps prophetically, a federal courthouse is a symbol of justice.
Speaker 1: To attack it is to attack America. Quick historical footnote
Speaker 1: here in September of a federal judge rule that Chad
Speaker 1: Wolfe was likely unlawfully serving as acting director of Homeland
Speaker 1: Security during the entirety of his tenure in that position.

Speaker 1: During Wolf's visit, Mayor Wheeler had said that he and
Speaker 1: all city officials would refer used to meet with the
Speaker 1: DHS head if invited. However, the day after wolves visit,
Speaker 1: the Portland Mercury reported that Darryl Turner, the head of
Speaker 1: the Portland Police Association, had met Chad Wolf without approval
Speaker 1: from either the mayor or the Police chief. Chief level
Speaker 1: would not say definitively whether any officers had met with DHS,
Speaker 1: but photos showed uniformed PPB officers speaking to Chad Wolf
Speaker 1: during his visit. The action targeting the Portland Police Association's
Speaker 1: union headquarters in North Portland was one response to these events.
Speaker 1: The protests downtown, likewise, were driven by anger over Donovan Labella,
Speaker 1: federal overreach and the federal snatch fans. While the North
Speaker 1: Portland crowd was made up of mostly experienced activists, the
Speaker 1: folks of the Justice Center represented a broader cross section
Speaker 1: of Portlanders. Several images from the eighteenth went viral, both
Speaker 1: niche and wide, and locally and would bring more of
Speaker 1: the city's liberal majority out into the streets. One such
Speaker 1: video showed a fifty three year old Christopher David, surrounded
Speaker 1: by tear gas approaching armored federal agents. According to Mr David,
Speaker 1: a Navy veteran, he wanted to ask the men how
Speaker 1: they felt about violating their constitutional oath. Instead, the video
Speaker 1: shows one of the agents gripping his baton two handed
Speaker 1: like a baseball bat, and smashing it into David's arms
Speaker 1: and legs five times. Another agent then steps forward and
Speaker 1: maces David in the face as he stands motionless. He
Speaker 1: walks away after the attack, middle fingers raised on his
Speaker 1: broken hands. As of this recording, video of the assault
Speaker 1: has been viewed more than fifteen million times. Another viral
Speaker 1: moment came when a group of about forty people calling
Speaker 1: themselves Moms against police brutality and dressed in white, were
Speaker 1: horribly tear gassed by federal agents. Videos of the attack
Speaker 1: incensed thousands of Portlanders and led to the creation of
Speaker 1: the famous Wall of Moms. Courtney is an indigenous Hawaiian Portlander.
Speaker 1: She's one of the moms who came out on July eighteenth.
Speaker 1: Here's what she recalls, it was like a smaller It
Speaker 1: wasn't as big as like the after when it started
Speaker 1: to really take off. It was probably like twenty left
Speaker 1: at that point, and definitely didn't know what I Like,
Speaker 1: I had no idea what to walk into what I
Speaker 1: was walking into. I mean, I've been protesting before, especially
Speaker 1: for like land rights and things like that and what,
Speaker 1: but not like anything against police brutality and things like that.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, just, you know, we roll up and
Speaker 1: then not even not probably like two or three hours later,
Speaker 1: but like the said, come out and just start shooting
Speaker 1: at us. And that was and I was like the
Speaker 1: frontline then because I didn't know what I was walking into.
Speaker 1: I just didn't know like what. I had no idea
Speaker 1: what was going to happen. I had seen the videos
Speaker 1: the night before, but like I you know, I just
Speaker 1: didn't know what to expect. I didn't think it was
Speaker 1: going to be as violent as it was. Um. So, yeah,
Speaker 1: that night, like they guessed the ship out of everyone
Speaker 1: as always, but that they actually got hit by like
Speaker 1: rubber bullets that night. I still have a scar from
Speaker 1: like a pepper ball like on my shoulder from the
Speaker 1: first night that I want to now and um oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: that was my that was my first night out. Courtney
Speaker 1: recalls being struck by the extremity of the violence, how
Speaker 1: sudden and overwhelming it all was. I honestly, like I
Speaker 1: just didn't expect. Um, I didn't expect the close range
Speaker 1: shooting first of all. I didn't expect like the amount
Speaker 1: gas that they were using on people. Um. I just
Speaker 1: you know, it's different when you're like watching it on
Speaker 1: like a stream versus like actually being there in person,
Speaker 1: especially if there was like the line that we were
Speaker 1: standing in the first night that I was there, there
Speaker 1: was probably like seven of us, and they there were
Speaker 1: like ten Feds just shooting at all of us, just
Speaker 1: standing there like trying to like guard yourselves behind an umbrella.
Speaker 1: And they clearly knew that there were like mombs out there,
Speaker 1: because that was the night where we're all like wearing
Speaker 1: yellow and like we were standing out and it was
Speaker 1: majority of us were just females standing there, and they
Speaker 1: just did not get like if they just they just
Speaker 1: did not care. It didn't matter, it didn't matter. And um,
Speaker 1: so that was shocking, definitely, Like I don't think that
Speaker 1: I've processed really anything that's gone on, um and just
Speaker 1: like check it away for another day. But uh yeah,
Speaker 1: it's I just I didn't expect the like the extremity
Speaker 1: of it. Within hours of the first major gassing by
Speaker 1: federal troops, DHS memo was leaked to The New York
Speaker 1: Times revealing that the Feds in the courthouse had not
Speaker 1: been properly trained with any of the riot control munitions
Speaker 1: they were using. Instead, the DHS officers had been responding
Speaker 1: to unarmed protesters with military tactics rather than mere dispersal.
Speaker 1: The goal was shock and awe, to shatter all resistance
Speaker 1: with a display of overwhelming violence that would leave its
Speaker 1: targets frightened and broken. Instead, as Costco describes, Portland took
Speaker 1: away a very different message. I felt it felt disgusting
Speaker 1: to me. It felt they I mean, even though I
Speaker 1: knew they worked a military, they felt like the military
Speaker 1: because they all looked like the military. They're all to
Speaker 1: me all looked really young too, and they were very
Speaker 1: uh they're very aggressive and very quick to act in violence.
Speaker 1: To me, they seem more afraid of us than like
Speaker 1: Portland police were you ever seemed afraid of us? And
Speaker 1: so like they I don't know if that made them
Speaker 1: react and fear more, but they were definitely more aggressive,
Speaker 1: and I knew it was going to turn into a circus.
Speaker 1: The following night, July, well over one thousand people filled
Speaker 1: Chapman in Loundsdale, the two parks in front of the
Speaker 1: Federal Courthouse and the Justice Center. The group of moms,
Speaker 1: now in matching yellow t shirts and helmets, numbered in
Speaker 1: the hundreds. It was easily the largest crowd since the
Speaker 1: end of the Rose City Justice daytime marches. Medics came through,
Speaker 1: handing out tear gas wipes and eye flash bottles, and
Speaker 1: the moms linked arms before moving to form a living
Speaker 1: wall facing the fence recently erected around the mark O.
Speaker 1: Hatfield's Courthouse. Many of the people who came out that
Speaker 1: night were new to the confrontation downtown. As Dmitria Hester
Speaker 1: describes it, they were greeted as welcome reinforcements because we
Speaker 1: knew all was coming. As black people, we know the
Speaker 1: torture and the abused that the police give us, so
Speaker 1: we were very prepared. We had respirators, we had maths,
Speaker 1: we had helmets. We made sure that all the mom
Speaker 1: had equipment and everything they needed. To get through the night.
Speaker 1: From the open doors of the courthouse, agents and battle
Speaker 1: dress could be seen moving into position in the darkened
Speaker 1: lobby as the Fed's very own el rad warned against
Speaker 1: attempts to damage the fence behind the wall of moms
Speaker 1: in yellow. The rest of the crowd was also getting
Speaker 1: into position, and a chant of Feds go home was
Speaker 1: taken up by hundreds of voices. Unlike the enormous daytime
Speaker 1: rallies from June, this crowd had not come to march.
Speaker 1: After more than an hour of chanting and singing, answered
Speaker 1: by scattered pepper balls and flashbangs from the Feds, a
Speaker 1: few sections of the fence were removed by protesters, and
Speaker 1: soon the whole fence came down. That night, the crowd
Speaker 1: fell back under the ensuing tear gas barrage. Federal agents
Speaker 1: advanced through the park and protesters retreated, but slowly and
Speaker 1: with a smattering of shields and umbrellas blocking some of
Speaker 1: the Federal munitions. The night of Lounsdale and Chapman were
Speaker 1: an unbroken sea of thousands. People worked their way across
Speaker 1: the park with buckets of rubber, squeaky pigs. Speeches echoed
Speaker 1: over the p a from the steps of the boarded
Speaker 1: up Justice Center under the words fed goons out of PDX,
Speaker 1: projected in letters five ft high. The wall of moms
Speaker 1: was joined by a self described wall of Dad's, wearing
Speaker 1: safety orange and equipped with leaf blowers to disperse tear gas.
Speaker 1: Here's Demetria again. The das came with the leaf blowers.
Speaker 1: I mean they came with protection. They guarded us and
Speaker 1: pain disprotecting each other. The shields, too, had multiplied, made
Speaker 1: out of plywood, foam and fifty gallon plastic drums. The
Speaker 1: boards over the courthouse doors and windows had been fitted
Speaker 1: with small hatches, in an echo of the PPB strategy
Speaker 1: from the days of the Justice Center fence. This time,
Speaker 1: when the first tear gas grenades came through the hatches,
Speaker 1: the crowd surged forward. This rush of activity was followed
Speaker 1: by a long, tense slow for two hours. The crowd
Speaker 1: sang and danced, yellow clad moms, forming a kick line
Speaker 1: where the fence had stood only a day earlier. The
Speaker 1: mood was celebratory and fierce. Using sections of chain link, fence, lumber,
Speaker 1: and other debris, members of the crowd wedged shut some
Speaker 1: of the doors and hatches covering the front of the
Speaker 1: Federal courthouse. Some people tore at the plywood covering the
Speaker 1: courthouse door with their bare hands. There was no coherent
Speaker 1: strategy to this, but the sentiment was unmistakable. Portlanders were
Speaker 1: no longer on the defensive against the federal occupation. When
Speaker 1: federal agents finally emerged from the building, it was less
Speaker 1: a clean charge and more a series of shoves. After
Speaker 1: a scuffle with protesters, one agent responded by drawing his
Speaker 1: side arm and pointing it at eye level into the crowd.
Speaker 1: Protesters backed up, but few people actually left. Instead, they
Speaker 1: fell back slowly. Images of that night are surreal men
Speaker 1: in camouflage and plate carriers playing rifles at the chests
Speaker 1: of teenagers and tank tops and respirators as smoke bombs
Speaker 1: from the crowd mixed with clouds of tear gas and
Speaker 1: HC smoke. The Feds never formed a coherent line, and
Speaker 1: many people remained in the park throughout the first push.
Speaker 1: As the bulk of the crowd waded back into the
Speaker 1: gas and smoke blanketing Loundsdale Park, a shield wall formed
Speaker 1: up in the middle of Southwest Main Street and held
Speaker 1: Elaine remembers it this way, and then the first time
Speaker 1: actually seeing that on the ground, um federal l eos
Speaker 1: coming into shoot at people and the shield wall forming
Speaker 1: up and just holding ground. And it was amazing to
Speaker 1: see how the federal forces didn't seem to know how
Speaker 1: to what to do with people just standing their ground
Speaker 1: and protecting themselves, and so they just were shooting and
Speaker 1: shooting and shooting. And there was this incredible moment where
Speaker 1: suddenly I heard this like it was the farting sounds
Speaker 1: of their peat ball guns that they were shooting pepper
Speaker 1: balls and rubber balls at the protesters with just running
Speaker 1: out of air because the shield wall was holding and
Speaker 1: people were keeping it together and protecting the people behind them.
Speaker 1: Despite the fact that many of the federal agents on
Speaker 1: the line were armed within four rifles, those holding the
Speaker 1: shield wall along Southwest Main Street lobbed back gas canisters
Speaker 1: and glass bottles at the officers. Then the shield walls
Speaker 1: started moving forward to the repeated lines fuck you, I
Speaker 1: won't do what you tell me from Rage against the Machines,
Speaker 1: killing in the name. Shockingly, almost miraculously, the Feds started
Speaker 1: falling back. After about ten minutes, the shield line advanced
Speaker 1: to the end of the block and the FEDS withdrew
Speaker 1: to the steps of the court house. On July seventeenth,
Speaker 1: Chad Wolf had declared via tweet, we will never surrender
Speaker 1: to violent extremists on my watch. Now. At about one am,
Speaker 1: after one of the most intense nights of federal violence
Speaker 1: thus far, Lonsdale Park was full of people and Chad
Speaker 1: Wolf's Federal agents had scrambled back inside their fortress, low
Speaker 1: on ammunition and clearly rattled. Several DHS agents tried to
Speaker 1: prop close a door that had been shattered by enraged
Speaker 1: mombs and teenagers with skateboards. Others attempted to fire out
Speaker 1: of murder holes, only to be stymied in this by
Speaker 1: teenagers hucking dozens of bottles at their in hands. The
Speaker 1: Feds would push out again that night, but federal charges
Speaker 1: no longer provoked protesters into automatic retreat. Portland had gotten
Speaker 1: a taste of what it felt like to face down
Speaker 1: the violence of federal agents, and they even seem to
Speaker 1: like it. For the next several weeks, the city would
Speaker 1: begin to treat fighting the Feds as a citywide pastime.
Speaker 1: In our next episode, we'll talk about how this dystopian
Speaker 1: side mission became the setting for a national media spectacle,
Speaker 1: how an armed coup took over a rib restaurant and
Speaker 1: so much more. Uh where the grand pops who couldn't
Speaker 1: fathom the obamasist I don't hate America, just to me,
Speaker 1: And she keeps a promisess looking like the sixties. It's crazy,
Speaker 1: a nationwide deja p What my people post to do
Speaker 1: go to schools named after the clan founder were around town?

Speaker 1: students forced to learn about when o'para Sarah? How is
