Over the last 24 hours in Portland Oregon, Jenn interviewed a Proud Boys-supporter who claimed Black Lives Matter is really a secret lesbian separatist plot (and who said she's on an "Antifa kill list"), a Proud Boy who giddily boasted about joining the group in order to "beat up some fu**ing commies!", and covered a BLM counter-protest where police acted more like an occupying army than officers meant to protect citizens.
[SUPPORT Jenn's reporting trip]

Meanwhile, Status Coup photojournalist Jon Farina captured horrifying footage of Portland police attacking unarmed, peaceful protesters for...no apparent reason.
And they're just getting started!
Today, Jenn will be covering the houseless epidemic in Portland while also continuing to cover whatever protests pop up. Tomorrow, she'll head to San Diego to cover a very important story getting very little attention—an indigenous tribe's battle against President Trump's border wall being built over its sacred ancestral burial grounds. After that, they'll head to Los Angeles to cover the ongoing wildfires.
This reporting is important—and expensive—with the costs of flights, hotels, trains, protective equipment, and food. If you can, please CHIP IN TO SUPPORT this reporting trip at any amount.
Progressively,
Jordan
