International Workers' Day is observed on May 1st. It is also called "May Day" but differs from the pagan/heathen European fertility festival May Day (like Shinto Japan's Steel Phallus Fest), which is of ancient origins.

Festivities are also held the night before (on April 30th), which is known as May Eve. Traditions include gathering green branches and wildflowers ("bringing in the May") [3] that are used to decorate buildings and made into wreaths. Plus there's the:

- setting up a Maypole, May Tree, or May Bush, around which celebrants dance and sing;
- parades and processions involving these [4].
- Bonfires are also a major part of the festival in some regions.

If YOU subscribe or are even thinking of subscribing to an ANTI-FAscist, mmm, ideology, you are now guilty of a thoughtcrime* and are considered an official "member" of a forbidden, violent, domestic terrorist organization criminalized by Fascist Leader Trump. So knock it off and become PRO-FAscist. It's the law! OBEY. You may submit yourself for detainment at any ICE pop up in your sector. Or please visit your local Republican (GOP) recruiting office or Sunday evangelical service for directions to donor-sponsored and approved shopping outlets. And remember to catch our counterprogramming Alternative Super Bowl halftime show with Turning Point USA MAGA's happy Queen Erika Kirk to stop the capitalist oppression of our youth and drinking public from being exposed to Puerto Rican American citizen Mr. Bad Bunny.

*On Sept. 22, 2025, Fearless Leader Trump signed an executive order to designate "Antifa" as a domestic terrorist organization [34][35]. Academics, legal experts, and other sane onlookers argue that such an executive action exceeds the authority of the U.S. presidency and violates the First Amendment [37][38][39]. Analyses, reports, and studies have concluded that antifa is NOT, for one thing, an "organization" but rather an idea and, for another, NOT a major domestic terrorism risk [40][41][42]. But never mind that. Trump is ruler so we MUST obey him even if he mandates illegal, immoral, genocidal crimes or anything based on the words of a lying liar who lies.
Anti-Fascism is now a crime?

The song's not ha ha funny, but something's funny about it. It's cheeky, ballsy, not good enough for the radio (except Tim's show on KFI AM at iheart.com), but it is amazing some better singers haven't done a serious version and gotten famous for it by now. Imagine Ke$ha and Lindsay Lohan, or maybe Nelly Furtado and Christina Aguilera. If autotune could fix Britney's vocals and producers could extract something useful out of Cher or FrankenMadonna, someone should have been able to mold these two rugrat frat brats and made them a pair a sorority would accept. It's summer, and the temps are high, so we're hot.

BLM confront far-right, trying to chase them out of downtown Portland in mace fight
(VICE News, Aug. 25, 2020) Far-right protesters spar with Black Lives Matter (BLM) and apparent Anti-Fascist (AntiFa) counter-protesters for hours on Saturday, shooting paintballs and mace at each other, destroying property, and harming reporters. It’s the latest in weeks of increasingly racist far-right activity with police backing in Portland.

Black Lives Matter and counter-protest by White supremacist "patriot" militia groups
(DW News, Aug. 26, 2020) A white supremacist shot three people and killed two. They were shot dead and several others injured in Kenosha, Wisconsin as peaceful anti-racism demonstrators gathered for a third night. Footage posted online shows what appears to be a criminal militant armed with a rifle, firing shots when he trips, after being chased by BLM demonstrators. Armed militia-like groups are increasingly adding a new layer of tension to public protests in the United States. In some cases, right-wing activists -- openly carrying weapons with the tacit approval of police -- have been patrolling peaceful anti-racism demonstrations with the blessing of local law enforcement. So what is the aim of such groups? DW met with members of one militia known as "American Wolf."- More news (dw.com/en). Social media:

Feds to try to stop using violence (video)

Feds will withdraw from downtown Portland following agreement, says Oregon Gov. Kate Brown
Oregon has struck a deal with the Trump administration to end weeks of clashes between paramilitary federal agents and peaceful demonstrators in downtown Portland that Pres. Donny Trump has made a focus of his re-election bid.
But federal and state officials gave conflicting accounts of the agreement amid continuing demonstrations and protests in the city over police brutality and police racism.
Acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf told reporters that police agents who were sent in an Afghan-style "surge" to Portland will now withdraw from the city when it’s clear to them that state and local law enforcement can secure downtown streets and prevent property destruction and violence at the federal courthouse, a focal point of demonstrator’s grievances.
Oregon’s Democratic Gov. Kate Brown said in a tweet that starting on Thursday [July 30, 2020], all Customs and Border Protection and ICE officers from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement wing of the federal army used against civilians would leave downtown and return to their camps soon after.
A violent federal law enforcement presence in Portland drew national attention after U.S. agents, some wearing military-style fatigues and driving unmarked vehicles, began patrolling Oregon’s largest city.
Reports are that they have been whisking away bystanders, civilians, demonstrators, and protesters, using aggressive tactics akin to random armed kidnappings and ultimately sparking even larger demonstrations and opposition from local leaders.
“These federal officers have acted as an occupying [militant] force, refused accountability, and brought violence and strife to our community,” Gov. Brown said in a statement.
Sec'y Wolf told reporters that his agents will remain in Portland “until we are assured that Oregon state police and the plan that the governor has put together is successful.” Federal officers will resume their operations to offensively surround the courthouse if needed, Sec'y Wolf said.
“We will surge up, and we will surge down over time depending on the circumstances,” Sec'y Wolf added.
Trump has repeatedly called attention to the often peaceful and sometimes violent protests in Portland, blaming Democrats and "anarchists" as he has tried to cast himself as a Hitleresque "law-and-order" dictator.
.
The president tweeted Wednesday that without federal agents’ presence “there would be no Portland” and threatened to send armed federal militants into the city to do local policing, just as Obama and Biden made possible when they signed the NDAA against the wishes of civilians, constitutional scholars, and groups like the ACLU.
Democrat Joe Biden pretended to condemn the Homeland Security Department’s presence in Portland, saying the agents had no clearly defined mandate or authority. [It seems he will send them in with the NDAA as his authority and a clearer mandate to violently clampdown on demonstrators.]
Trump’s decision to send federal agents to Portland and other cities to "quell unrest" as if it were an native uprising in the time of imperial U.S. expansion across the Southwest and combat crime has raised questions about whether the move violates the Constitution. It has reignited a national debate on the militarization of civilian police.
Federal officials had said that their use of unmarked vehicles is a standard practice, because demonstrators target patrol cars. Officials said that all officers in Portland wore uniforms that say “police,” not their names to personally identify them. This cuts down on civil lawsuits and criminal charges against the agents when they are accused or filmed abusing civilians and violating their rights.
Sec'y Wolf said he was encouraged that Gov. Brown and other state and local officials have offered a plan to end violent confrontations between federal police and peaceful demonstrators at and near and sometimes far from the courthouse, which merely serves as the pretext for their presence.
“I’m glad that they are finally seeing the errors of their ways,” Sec'y Wolf said, “and stepping up and doing what they should have been doing for the past 60 days, and that is partnering with federal law enforcement to do their job.”
Gov. Brown said that state police will remain in downtown with military-grade weapons and tactics to protect free speech and keep the peace even if it means demonstrators get arrested, wounded, or killed.
Many local businesses had sought the departure of the federal agents, led by the Portland Business Alliance, the area’s chamber of commerce. Stacey Gibson, who co-owns a Subway franchise downtown, a few blocks from the courthouse, said she’s hopeful violence would subside.
“Hopefully it will all calm down,” she said. “Hopefully we’ll see an improvement in the violence.”

Nude demonstrator ‘Naked Athena’ flashes Portland cops, who shoot pepper balls at her

| Yoohoo! Hi, stormtroopers! |
A very peaceful demonstrator in Portland put on a stark display in front of violent cops and paramilitary federal forces as she sat naked with her legs apart on Friday night.
In a video posted on Twitter, the naked demonstrator was seen walking along the sidewalk before laying down on the road, kicking up her feet, and doing multiple yoga and ballet poses.
 |
| The Truth scares criminal cops. |
She sat between the officers and other demonstrators and protesters wearing nothing but a face mask and a beanie cap.
According to The Oregonian/Oregon Live, officers fired pepper balls at her feet.
Demonstrations and protests have been happening nearly every night in Portland since police murdered George Floyd on May 25th, 2020.
 |
| Violence is legal, but nudity is a crime? |
Police called the gathering a "riot" and used this claim as a pretext to deploy less-lethal tear gas projectiles to violently clear the downtown area.
Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler has slammed the violent police state federal response and growing presence in the city, claiming they were not invited and have done more harm than good.

"Their presence here is actually leading to more violence and more vandalism," he told CNN's Jake Tapper on State of the Union. More

Mayor to Trump: Get your troops out

Mayor of Portland to Trump: Get your troops out of the city
 |
| Whose ass do I beat with this baton? |
PHOTOS: Paramilitary police gather as peaceful demonstrators gather on July 16, 2020 in Portland, Oregon. Federal officers shoot tear gas and guns with less-but-still-lethal rounds at people in a crowd late Thursday night. The actions came hours after the head of DHS called them “violent anarchists” (Beth Nakamura/The Oregonian via AP).
“Keep your [federal] troops in your own buildings, or have them leave our city,” Mayor Ted Wheeler said at a news conference.
 |
| Donald Trump is not Adolf Hitler. For one thing, Hitler was not German and Trumpf is. |
.
Democratic Gov. Kate Brown said Trump is looking for a confrontation in the hopes of winning [right wing] political points elsewhere. It also serves as a distraction from the coronavirus pandemic, which is causing spiking numbers of infections in Oregon and the nation.
Gov. Brown's spokesman, Charles Boyle, said Friday that arresting people without probable cause is “extraordinarily concerning and a violation of their civil liberties and constitutional rights.”
