"trump Caravan" assault on Portland results in the death of an apparent "Patriot Prayer" individual
If there are any grownups left in the Republican Party they need to explain to trump that starting a civil war because his polling is bad is not a great idea. pic.twitter.com/1RgDfpZvlk

The shooting victim in Portland last night was wearing the hat of Patriot Prayer, a right-wing, radical Christianist group that opposes Black Lives Matter and supports Donald Trump. pic.twitter.com/NS3TGnaHvS

A man was shot and killed tonight in downtown Portland.

He wore a hat with the insignia of Patriot Prayer, a far-right group https://t.co/Asd4WzoStm
Here's is how the ADL defines "Patriot Prayer" group: Patriot Prayer espouse virulently anti-Muslim views, are vocally pro-Trump, and are known for their deliberate provocations of left-leaning West Coast communities. https://t.co/oy9GiKcuwo via @ADL

This is a reflection of @realDonaldTrump’s and the @GOP’s America. It is NOT the America the founders created. It is not the America that existed from 1788 until 2016. That America will cease to exist if, on 11/3/2020, “We, the people” fail to act.#BidenHarrisToSaveAmerica

What is happening in Portland suburbs tonight is a sign of what’s to come everywhere in Trump’s America: far-right hate groups and armed militias rolling in with guns and impunity. I have friends who live there and they are terrified! This is authoritarianism. Vote!

I'm out in the Portland suburbs, where hundreds of Trump supporters are gathering for an event. They say they will be driving into Portland later tonight. pic.twitter.com/NUHy5e4TnP

The event hasn't officially begun, but it's already tense. A Trump supporter just pulled off his coat, ready to fight. pic.twitter.com/iECkockFIM

Some of the BLM crowd is leaving. The Trump crowd is following them. pic.twitter.com/3xoTbxLatT

Organizers encouraged concealed carry to the event, but some are open carrying pic.twitter.com/s82J8CEcES

With the usual caveat that I'm terrible at crowd estimates, I'd say about 1,000 people are here throughout the parking lot right now and maybe like 1 million flags.

The current plan is to drive into Portland as a huge caravan at 6 p.m. pic.twitter.com/gJdiuDAKjk
The caravan is headed out, but there is still some tension at the starting area. Some spitting and a guy menacing people with a baseball bat pic.twitter.com/SE6ilpVjcs

The caravan route has been closely guarded for "security reasons," but they have released it now. Looks like it isn't actually going into downtown Portland. It's staying on highways. pic.twitter.com/KP71QPfThX

CONFIRMED: Similarly to that of the violent 'call to arms' in Kenosha WI, this evening's confrontational "Trump Caravan" utilized a Facebook event page to market their event and create space for violent inspiration in their discussion tab. https://t.co/6bv1Cvk2wG pic.twitter.com/5UBWLuQC0I

Me, Erik Prince and a couple former CIA agents would sit in Abu Dhabi and talk about how to create this type of chaos in...Iran. Looks like Erik successfully brought the playbook to America. Law Enforcement both Feds and Local need to do their goddamn jobs. https://t.co/qCsBzHWsz1

Patriot Prayer, Proud Boys, and Boogaloo are Trump-loving, far-right extremist groups.

There's only one reason they're at the protests: To promote violence.
This thuggery is incited by Trump -- whose dream of a vigilante gang of American Brownshirts is coming true.#TrumpRiots
A reminder that Mussolini institutionalized Fascist blackshirts as a Militia when he was prime minister of a democratic coalition govt. Having a Militia loyal to him (the armed forces served the King) emboldened him to declare dictatorship. https://t.co/4TZBgUvvWy
