(Photo: AP) Editors' note: Righteous beautiful protests continue in Portland night-after-night in the face of violent attempted repression by the fascist federal law-enforcement forces deployed by Trump, and spread to other cities, with manifestations of support and solidarity across the country. We give a sense of all this below. At the same time, the fascist regime—and its violent forces of repression—are doubling down. Contributions from readers here further highlight the leaps in repression and fascist consolidation represented by Trump and his fascist cabinet officially announcing new programs to send federal law enforcement to other Democratic-controlled cities, especially Chicago, and expanding previous programs. All this underscores the urgency of confronting the fascist nature, program and danger of the Trump/Pence regime and of building mass political resistance to drive out the Trump/Pence regime from power, #OutNow, as struggles that strengthen and are mutually reinforcing with the Beautiful Rising against police murder and racism.
