Revolutions tend to devour their own, but rarely has this happened as swiftly, publicly, and predictably as it did with Portland’s overpraised “Wall of Moms.”
The brainchild of a suburban Mexican-American woman named Beverly Barnum, the group was loosely organized among other moms on Facebook who were incensed that President Trump had dispatched federal officers to Portland to protect the federal courthouse that had become the main target of three-months-long protests in the city. Wearing yellow T-shirts and linking arms, the Moms created a “wall” between federal officers and Black Lives Matter protestors in July, chanting “Feds stay clear. Moms are here!” and calling themselves “Momtifa.”
Not surprisingly, the moms became instant media darlings. Barnum and others gave emotional interviews to reporters, and outlets like National Public Radio swooned over the women as brave symbols of motherhood and activism—contrasting sharply with the officers Trump had stationed around the courthouse. Sen. Ron Wyden called them “courageous” and copycat groups like Wall of Vets, Wall of Dads, Wall of Doctors — again, self-identified—also joined the Moms in downtown Portland.

Beverly Barnum is a Beaner? /s
“Momtifa”? do you guys think of anything other than your vaginas?
You say you want a revolution? Flip your bike upside down and turn the wheel.\
Sorry revolutionaries. The revolution will not be televised.

NPR doesn’t believe mothers who protest at abortion clinics are wise or brave.
BWAHAHAHAHA!
Beautiful
Momhood does not make you bullet proof.
Dopes who created these ingrate snowflake losers. Apples dont fall far from the tree
Wall of Moms and CHOP/CHAZ didn’t last long. Emotionally fired things generally don’t.
Beverly Barnum’s brainchild.... NO
Beverly Barnum’ brain fart ..... CLOSER, but still NO
Beverly Barnum has diarrhea coming out of her ears - is there a clinical term for THAT?
Yep, they think about what color it is, too.
There are a lot of mothers at those Portland riots.
“As the dust settles, Wall of Moms founder Beverly Barnum has departed the group to form a new organization...”
“Wall of Schizos”
But the only have to identify as a mom, not actually be one.
Just another example of the “wrong kind” of command-and-control freaks getting in the way of the more “pure” elements of this mindset. Obsequious surrender of the “lesser” power centers to the “alpha” and “correct” leaders of the Revolution is the only form of alliance that will be permitted.
Just like the “Antifa” are the descendants of the “Antifaschistischen” that was established by the Communist Party of Germany in the days before the rise of the Third Reich. Their purpose was to fight the “Fascist” or “National Socialists” of Germany, a turf war, nothing more. The Nazis are only “right-wing” in the sense that their form of Socialism is not nearly as pure as the Communists. Nazis were still, for all practical purposes, extremely left-wing, and what “capitalism” they supported, was pretty much what is called “crony capitalism” today. The governing regime picks the winners and losers.
Hell of a way to run a railroad.
Stand them on their heads and they all look the same...
Don't know about thinking OF their vaginas, but I"m pretty sure they think WITH them. :-)
And yes, I'm trying to see if I've finally got this formatting thing right.
The blm people are starting to realize that their operation is now a corporatist entity wholly owned by WHITE lunatic leftist females funneling their donations to an old racist WHITE irish guy running for president.
And they don’t do refunds.
