Remember when protests meant marching with signs? Maybe a sit-in? Those quaint days are long gone, especially in Democrat-run cities where—well, let’s just say things have gotten weird. Really, really weird. Americans once understood that civil discourse and peaceful demonstration were hallmarks of our democratic republic. But something has fundamentally shifted in our culture, particularly in places where the boundaries of acceptable public behavior have completely dissolved.
The latest freak show from Portland, Oregon, proves just how far we’ve fallen from those standards of basic decency. What happened on the Burnside Bridge this past Sunday represents more than just another protest—it’s a symptom of a deeper cultural rot that’s spreading through blue cities across America. And before you ask, yes, it’s even more ridiculous than you’re imagining.
From Breitbart:
Oscar-nominated actor James Woods unloaded on the left-wing activists in Portland who blocked traffic on the Burnside Bridge on Sunday, staging a “die-in” in protest of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and President Donald Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration.
Mentally ill Democrats in action…,” is how Woods described the reported hundreds of cyclists taking part in the “die-in” and “Emergency World Naked Bike Ride” on Sunday.
🚨 NOW: Portland leftists are blocking roads while holding a "NUDE DIE-IN" to "protest ICE"
And of course, Portland is allowing full public nudity
Remember, THIS is the sh*t you're voting for when you vote Democrat

When Protests Become Performance Art
The absurdity of Portland’s anti-ICE demonstration boggles the mind. Protesters didn’t just block critical infrastructure—they stripped naked in public, lay down on the bridge, and called it a “die-in.” Yes, naked. On a bridge. In October. But wait, it gets better. Others arrived dressed as squirrels, panda bears, and even Teletubbies to confront federal law enforcement officers.
What exactly does public nudity accomplish for immigration policy? How does dressing like a children’s television character advance any serious political argument? Picture this: You’re an ICE agent trying to do your job, and suddenly you’re facing down a guy in a purple Tinky Winky suit. Not exactly what they covered in training at Quantico. These aren’t protesters with coherent messages—they’re performers in a bizarre street theater that most Americans find absolutely repulsive.
The Voice of Sanity
Look, we’re all thinking it, but James Woods just had the guts to say it out loud. The Hollywood legend spoke for millions of Americans when he called out these demonstrations for what they are: mental illness on display. His blunt assessment cuts through the media’s desperate attempts to normalize this behavior. While mainstream outlets describe these as “protests,” Woods correctly identifies them as the unhinged actions of people who’ve completely gone off the deep end.
From ‘DHS Press Release’:
President Trump and Secretary Noem are delivering on the American people’s mandate to deport illegal aliens, and the latest polls show that support for the America First agenda has not wavered. The American people, the law, and common sense are on our side, and we will not stop until law and order is restored after Biden’s open border chaos flooded our country with the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens. Law and order will win the day.
The numbers back this up completely. Recent polls show overwhelming support for deporting criminal illegal aliens—a fact that these costume-wearing protesters desperately want to ignore. Real Americans aren’t buying what Portland’s selling.
Real Consequences, Real Solutions
While Portland’s protesters play dress-up (or dress-down, depending on your perspective), President Trump has taken decisive action. He’s authorized military deployment to protect ICE facilities that have been under siege since June 2025. He’s directed Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth to provide “all necessary troops” and even authorized “full force, if necessary” to restore order. That’s what actual leadership looks like.
Yet Democrat-appointed judges keep trying to block Trump’s efforts to restore order, even as the chaos escalates. Every temporary injunction, every legal obstruction only emboldens these radicals to push further into absurdity and violence. It’s like watching adults enable a toddler’s tantrum—except the toddler is naked and thinks they’re a Teletubby.
Most Americans see through this insanity. They support secure borders, law and order, and basic public decency. They’re tired of watching their cities burn while protesters demand the right to break our laws. James Woods simply said what millions are thinking: this isn’t protest, it’s mental illness. And it’s time we stopped pretending otherwise.
Here’s the choice, America: We can have secure borders and functioning cities, or we can have naked Teletubbies blocking bridges. The Democrats have made their choice crystal clear. What’s yours?
