    Trump and Republicans count on the ignorance of voters to get elected and it works. 

  2. >When a Guardian reporter pointed out on social media that the image was not a genuine photograph of the generally small and tame protests outside the Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office in Portland, the Oregon Republican Party’s X account replied: “We’re not reporters, just bad memers.”

    Literally the “protest” spans less than a block, is mostly retired folks, a couple of hippies, and a guy in a frog suit

    Some days it’s less than 5 people. 

    I’ve seen rowdier crowds at IN-N-Out Burger or Chick-fil-A on a Friday night

    So they’re trying to convince people that there’s out of control protests in Oregon. Wouldn’t people wonder what has caused so many to protest in one area out of the blue. Plus the govenor is loudly saying they do not need the national guard and that it is calm and beautiful there. Two conflicting stories and Trump has been known to lie and is showing confusion.

  5. Why did OP change the headline? The original one is better: “Republicans post fake images of Oregon protest – using photos of South America”

  6. Wow, the propaganda is real. The republicans really want to push their narrative. However, the gullible MAGA supporters will undoubtedly believe this without question.

    Trump and his cronies really want to deploy ICE and the National Guard on blue states and cities. Observe that they are not targeting red states and cities.

    The whole Portland “crisis” is complete bullshit. If you’re buying it, you’re falling for propaganda man

    As far as I understand from my friends on the ground it’s just a normal American city. Sure there are bums and fentanyl but that’s just America bro

    Guarantee that if they posted a photo of J6 capitol invasion they would say Democrats are at war with Portland

    It’s like that original star trek episode with the war computers, and people being ordered to disolving chambers following reports of impacts while in reality it was peaceful outside their game

  10. Here’s the not so funny part. America hasn’t seen a truly violent protest in about a 160 years. And that one was about slavery. They may just get what they wish for and I’ve got a feeling the results will be similar.

    What a pack of lies.

    There’s part of a single city block where people are gathered outside of the Ice building to protest their blatantly illegal and unconstitutional acts. It’s a mix of you grand older people, being peaceful, until cops and feds start shooting pepper balls, flashbacks, smoke grenades, and everything they can do to escalate and get good pics for the gram.

    There are “far right influencers” on the roof of the Ice building filming and telling lies while the cops and feds instigate.

    A block away people are walking their dogs and living life like normal.

    It’s one city block. And there’s nothing violent happening until Ice shows up.

    The never ending capacity of Republicans to lie in order to support a false proposition is “almost” awe inspiring!

    Seriously, there needs to be a policy to regulate this crap on social media. It is intentionally false and whoever (OregonGOP) at least on up to who is funding false information to incite violence needs to be held accountable.

    I know Trump already did yet another EO to not regulate AI but these photos are 2008/9 way before AI.

    Trump sues media to intimidate them and settles out of court for millions for much less (or nothing) than this.

  14. They are not trying to convince the people. They are feeding misinformation to the White House and Trump who only seems to make decisions based on what he sees on TV and on social media. He lives in a bubble of lies and couldn’t see the truth if it smacked him in the face.

    The propaganda is infuriating. They aren’t news. You might as well be watching a movie with Tom Cruise and call it news. Unless you are in court. Horse of a different color. Mushed the brains of a lot of people. Very effective.

  16. “We’re just bad memers”? Then fricking resign, y’all are supposed to be civil servants. The lack of seriousness and respect for their position in power is dangerous.

    Damn! So many illegals up in Portland that their own police force is called *policia*!

    F’ing clowns man..

  18. Trump is trying to pit States against states. He’s bat💩 crazy. This treason. Trump needs to be ARRESTED!

    The Portland Policia. Reminds me of when someone tried to elicit votes from latinos by putting up billboards with messaging in *latin*
