Who’s Stirring Up Portland? ‘Pamtifa’ Says MAGA Extremists Are Behind the Violence LIVEPam’s journey from January 6 defendant to pro-democracy witness captures a quiet moral rebellion.
Pam Hemphill has seen both sides of America’s protest culture — and she’s calling it like she sees it. “We are watching theater,” she told Sam, describing federal agents staging violent optics against peaceful demonstrators in Portland. Pam says she went there to test the propaganda herself — to see whether the protesters were really dangerous. What she found, she said, were teachers, doctors, and elderly women holding signs, only to be pepper-sprayed and shoved by ICE officers. “If they were violent,” she said, “I’d be gone.” Her story flips the narrative that’s dominated right-wing media. Pam describes MAGA provocateurs like Nick Sortor and “paid podcasters” fabricating confrontations for clicks, while the actual protesters enforce non-violence, remove armed agitators, and protect one another. She insists the chaos Trump’s allies show on screen is manufactured — a staged excuse to justify more federal force. From pink smoke grenades to rubber bullets, she says the imagery is designed to deceive: “It’s theater — nothing more.” ![]() Pam Hemphill photos Pam’s journey from January 6 defendant to pro-democracy witness captures a quiet moral rebellion.
