Alright folks, I'm tuning in from Omaha tonight, watching a couple of livestreams of the ongoing #RHAZ occupation in Portland tonight.

Gonna do my best to keep folks updated on the events of tonight.

Streams that I'm watching are linked below

Earlier tonight Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler had this to say: https://twitter.com/tedwheeler/status/1336490851178930176?s=20
Earlier today: https://twitter.com/TangentPdx/status/1336378074888163330?s=20
Per stream: "Fuck Ted Wheeler!"

"Alright, the Feds are in...so we do have Feds coming here."

Instant change in the atmosphere from jovial to on edge.

If local folks have streams/threads they want me to watch or link here, DMs are open.
Right now, streamers are keeping the keeping the camera on themselves until the police show up --- right now, atmosphere seems generally chill.
"I need everyone to be aware of where they're at right now...Police are out, and they're on their way..."

Atmosphere remains jovial, but organizers reminding folks to be aware of their surroundings.
Heard on Stream: "The police said they're also going to arrest streamers?.....Once the police get here we're not going to be streaming our faces."

Still waiting for police to arrive
Love this from the Portland streamers - not streaming anything but their own faces until police arrive. Love this.
If there's a local that has the local bail numbers, please DM - I want to add them to this thread.
PDX NLG BAIL NUMBERS:
New Jail Line: (971) 247-1072
New Non-Jail Line: (833) 680-1312
Hard to hear on stream, but it looks like organizers are now speaking to the crowd.
Okay, I wanna remind folks that if they're watching the http://Woke.net  aggregated streams that they should be directly supporting the streamers OTG tonight---whether on Twitch or Facebook.
Heard on Stream: "For anyone that's in the area they're still requesting that more people come down here...they're gonna be needing support all night."
Also want to make it clear that I'm gonna respect the protocol of the streamers who are keeping opsec extremely tight tonight - won't be tweeting anything sensitive that might put protestors in unnecessary danger.
Atmosphere still seems chill for the moment. Someone's blasting some good tunes in the background lmao
Some comments on how strong the barricades are (no images of them) -- and streamers are cracking jokes from their commenters about karmic fence-building skills coming back on the feds
