Gran-tifa. It’s even better than the guy in a chicken suit giving “journalists” a tour of what would be the “next Burning Man” in front of the ICE facility in Portland.
Enter Democrat (of course), Maxine Dexter and her band of old farts. Maxine “F#ck President Trump, but don’t tell my kids”, Dexter got the band back together in what could have been the most hilarious episode of Portlandia yet if the show were still running.
They are the warriors of our time, fighting for justice. Seriously, these old people (I’m almost there) have nothing better to do then strum on a ukulele, a box drum and sing out of tune to reveal their utter tone-deafness. I think I even heard an out-of-tune trumpet in there. They have retired and are now reaping the rewards of that retirement and free to live in their delusional little utopias. So, what do they do? They bust out in song to relive their days of 60s sit-ins.
This land is your land, this land is my land.
I’m am SHOCKED Maxine Dexter and company did not preface this bad jam session with a paragraphs-long, land acknowledgement of sorts. After all, Maxine and The White Geezers are standing on the very river banks that belonged to indigenous tribes. It was their land. And, now, they pollute it with this noise. The ukuleles!
We could bring your movement to it's knees with a simple ukulele embargo

Oh, please! Bring it on!
Some of the comments are gold. What do you get when you get octogenarians on the streets of The Rose City? A whiff on Bengay mixed in with the cannabis? A full set of teeth? A parking lot full of Subarus?
Depends.
These are the same individuals who voted for Joe Biden. They eat at 5 and are in bed by 8. Now, I’m not judging them for this as I am on-board with the eat at five and bed by 8 plan these days. But, they have absolutely no idea what happens on the streets of PDX when the sun goes down on their city (that once belonged to the indigenous tribes of the Columbia River).

The Gran-tifa is a movement, though. They are too legit to quit.
So, sure, GOP. Rile up this sleeping giant. Because if past is prologue, senior voters just may help drive them right out of power in Washington.
In 2016, seniors made up just 16% of the electorate and went for Trump by 7%. Two years later, they were 26% of the electorate, voting for Republicans by just 2 points, which led Democrats to win 40 seats with a 7% blue wave victory over Republicans.
Imagine a similar surge in 2026, just two years after seniors made up 28% of the electorate and went for Trump by just 1%, with that needle moving bluer each year.
Silver Wave 2026, anyone?”-THE BIG PICTURE AND TODD BEETON
They’re coming for you! Except when the party in Portland at night becomes lit, lit, lit! Bad Bunny at The Superbowl? Hell no! Not when we have such RAW talent as this on our city streets!
Completely out of touch. I wonder how many of them live in gated communities? Singing while crime runs rampant and protesting the administration for taking action on Democrats soft on crime policies.

I would say a fair amount of them. Or, perhaps million-dollar condos tucked away from the Fentanyl addict encampments on the other side of the train tracks. And, they probably don’t talk to their grandkids who voted for Trump. Just my guess.
This land is your land, this land is my land. Except when they utter “not in our city!” Next up? The “Emergency” World Naked Bike Ride:
Emergency World Naked Bike Ride coming up in response to the militarization of our city. Plans are being worked on.”
Out-of-tune folk songs. Naked people on bikes. Naked, old, trans people on bikes playing folk songs. Trump is right. Portland IS a never-ending disaster.

OMG! I couldn’t stand that stinking song when it was going around the first time! Yup, I’m that old! They were so wrong in the 60’s and they aren’t smart enough to have learned a single thing in all this time! Please, just shut up and go home!
The grand kids were out front of the ICE facility again last night chanting vulgarity and begging to be gassed,I think it gets them high
White Geezers singing off tempo and off key – someone needs new batteries for their hearing aides.
Back on the bus to the Nursing Home. It’ll be Pudding Time when you get back.
I hate to admit it but I am starting to grasp the dislike directed towards that generation.
