      So I’m now in downtown Portland covering the Patriot Prayer rally and counterprotest. There’s a cop slowly driving a cruiser around the grass, stopping at times. A barricade system has been setup north of the Salmon Springs Fountain, just waiting for the crowd. #DefendPDXpic.twitter.com/arFC2QwVVQ

      Over at Portland City Hall, where the opposition is gathering, the Raging Grannies are singing some protest songs. Eventually this group is supposed to move over to the waterfront, where Patriot Prayer and Proud Boys are supposed to converge. #DefendPDX #AllOutPDXpic.twitter.com/N8AalMEFAs
