This is just a couple of videos in a long thread in Twitter about Wheeler showing up outside Portland’s Federal court to be a part of the Revolution and get street creds.
I did not go well for the Mayor. Apparently he was promised patchouli-scented tear gas and they lied to him.
Incredible scene. Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler overcome with another volley of federal tear gas. pic.twitter.com/6eAsJX1pSx

And when you are showing solidarity, they give you their demands’ list and one of them is not what you want.
And what is it with the 60’s Hippie imagery? Peace signs? Flower Child? Ya’ll want to be the new Weather Underground?
Once again, we need to find and neutralize the assholes training and providing for these poo-slinging monkeys.
Warning: We are not in the Sixties anymore nor the people are more bullshit tolerant as back then.
It is gonna get sporty.
UPDATE: Boris, I think I found the answer to your question about protective detail just now. Four people.
Portland mayor @tedwheeler is escorted to safety by his security team. Angry protesters follow and try to assault him despite his support on the front lines of the riot. They try to go inside the building but is pushed back by Wheeler’s security. pic.twitter.com/xUydADlJEv

I wonder if he dismissed his protection detail, or if they simply refused to go with him.
Either way … Can the good mayor now be arrested?
Updated the post with a video I just found showing the protective detail
Four.
Thanks!
I’m impressed by their professionalism and dedication.
By what I saw, he had at least 2 guys with him. If you check the videos Wheeler suddenly is no longer wearing the cap and somebody next to him is…
Seems to me that MR Wheeler has now seen the elephant and it should occur to him just how stupid that stunt really was. I, for one am impressed at the balls on that man. He really thought the marxists liked him. What a maroon.
However big that groin tackle is, it is in inverse proportion to the quantity of intellect he possesses, and that is the real shame. Marxists hate everyone ,Ted, even you, if only because you are in power and they are not. And he is too stupid to see that.
Only one solution. Burn, Portlandia, burn! Truly a city of dumb fucks if I have ever seen one.
Coming soon to a town near you. Orange Man Bad!
The video of Hilary crumpling and being placed in the van has a youtuber dissecting it. The guy doing the analysis is fairly knowledgeable and showed some of the ways he knew who the protective detail was (and pointed out that there were members of the protective detail closely watching Hilary instead of outside threats, implying that her security was prepared to do the catch and toss.)
One of the things that was pointed out is how security details hold their hands. Most people let their arms hang down. When security is on alert, their hands are up around their chests. This does not slow their movement to a hip carried firearm, it means that the are ready to respond to any sort of push towards them. It is a good, if unnatural position to hold your hands.
It is also “non-threatening”.
If you watch the video, you can see Wheeler’s security detail showing exactly this sort of posture. In addition, when one of them is entering the inner door, you can see his firearm over his right hip pocket. His shirt had come up and was now between his back and the grip.
Regardless, it is just another example of trying to set a narrative. It will be cropped and twisted till the average person things that up is down, in is out and that painful feeling in their bottom is just the friendly doctor doing a prostrate examine.
And what is it with the 60’s Hippie imagery? Peace signs? Flower Child? Ya’ll want to be the new Weather Underground?
It’s because they are the Weather Underground. At least the people in charge, the ones driving this whole dog and pony show are all 60s radicals, hippies and the commies they’ve influenced and brought in.
The most stupid thing Mayor Wheeler has done is to not recognize that he’ll be put in front of the firing squad for collaborating with anti-government forces when the commies take over. They don’t want revolutionaries. They want obedient slaves.
Ted Wheeler is up for reelection in November. He is in a runoff election with some crazy lady that says she is Antifa and she supports their goals.
This was a campaign stunt to improve his credibility with the Progressive Communist SJW Set in Seattle. After all, when it is a choice between Ted and someone crazier left, who will the sane voter vote for? Ted hopes for their vote. My opinion would be why am I still in Shithole Seattle?
My inclination if I had to choose between these two miserable failures, would be, “The Worse, The Better*!” You have to hit rock bottom before you can admit you are an addict, and Seattle needs to see the failure firsthand before they stop voting Communist.
*Vladimir Lenin, who knew the only way sane people would embrace Communism is to make any other course less safe and make the people hungrier.
Insty has a piece where a local reporter says Wheeler deliberately set himself up in the middle of the riot so he would be tear-gassed so he could scream about it.
That would make sense. Since he’s running against an opponent even crazier than he is, it would be logical for him to work some scam to improve his revolutionary cred.
