Portland is ringing in the New Year.

“Tonight is about making noise, today is about making the city hear our pain.”

“Fuck the Police. Fuck Ted Wheeler.”
Fireworks a plenty, probably first time I’ve seen this many in Portland since July 4th.
Near the Justice Center in downtown Portland.
Behind the courthouse fence.
Portland Police have declared an unlawful assembly, orders to move to the south and west. Threatening use of force including impact munitions.
This has now been declared a riot. Portland Police now threatening use of Tear Gas. Portland Police are “banned” from using CS Gas.
Little street fire in between the Justice Center and Federal Courthouse.
The fireworks are nonstop by the way.
The Feds are back in downtown Portland. DHS agents have arrived.
We are having ourselves a fireworks fight with the cops.
Federal Agents marching in downtown Portland, during the last few hours of 2020.
The crowd of demonstrators in Portland are actively pushing back the DHS.
Under pressure from the advancing protesters, DHS starts using chemical weapons and fires wildly into the crowd with impact rounds. The federal agents continue to fall back for now.
The Feds push back with greater force.
DHS retreats again. There’s a bit of a back and forth going one. Continued fireworks vs munitions.
The back and forth with the DHS rages on. Lots of smoke from all the fireworks.
The Multnomah County Sheriffs and Portland Police have been called in to back up DHS.
City Police, Sheriffs, and DHS advance west.
Fireworks and the police’s own smoke grenades are being used against them.
Police and sheriffs bull rush the crowd, assaulting people along the way.
Teargas is being used in Portland yet again. After the bull rush police formed a line and slowly pulled back, simultaneously teargas was launched into the streets.
Some teargas gets thrown back at the police. Main Street is heavily gassed. I can taste a little through my gas mask.
A look behind the Police Line as cops and DHS pull back.
With the police pulling back after their latest violet push, people had some free time and anger from being assaulted and gassed.

As the clock struck midnight and 2021 began in Portland, another Starbucks got smashed.
After a night of violence and gas from the Police and Feds, people smash up Portland’s luxury shopping district early on New Year’s Day.
A third Starbucks got targeted. Big chains and luxury shops are the businesses hit.
A few officers arrive at Pioneer Square and jog around while cop cars circle.
A few blocks away from Pioneer Square, Portland Police do what I believe is the first arrest of night.
I am home safe with my cats, my back is sore, my ears hurt, I am going to sleep. Happy New Years everyone.
