A group of more than 30 moms created a barricade to protect hundreds of protesters from federal officers during demonstrations against police brutality and racism in Portland, Oregon, on Saturday.

Viral videos and photos on social media showed around three dozen mothers — dressed in white and wearing bike helmets — linking arms and chanting, “Feds stay clear! Moms are here!” and “Leave our kids alone” at a protest outside a federal courthouse.

The women stood for a few hours outside the courthouse before federal officers used tear gas and flash bangs to disperse the crowd.

Federal officers, deployed in Portland by President Trump since last week, have led to escalating tensions in the city after protesters said the officers were violating their civil rights by roaming the streets in unmarked vans and detaining people without probable cause.

Even more moms, dressed in yellow, we're at the protests Sunday night.

1. The Mayor needs to have the Police protect the protesters from the Feds

and the Governor should send in the state police to do the same. I thought about the Governor sending in the national guard, but somebody would tell Trump that he can federalize them.

Oh, how about sending the fire department in to hose the feds down.
