The Portland Frog Brigade is taking its show on the road. At least eight members of the amphibious group, which gained fame after wearing inflatable frog suits to ICE protests last fall, will be heading to Washington, D.C., to be among the headliners for the State of the Swamp, an alternative event to President Donald Trump’s State of the Union speech on Tuesday.

Organizers are calling the State of the Swamp event “The Rebuttal to the State of the Union,” with the Portland Frog Brigade tweaking that to “The Ribbital.”

Dozens of celebrities, politicians and activists are lined up to speak or appear, from Robert De Niro and Mark Ruffalo to U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson. The event, set for 4 p.m. Tuesday at the National Press Club, can be live streamed at Defiance.org.

“Boycott Trump’s speech,” a banner on that group’s website says. “Join our party.”
“We’re hoping to steal the thunder,” a Portland Frog Brigade spokesperson told The Oregonian/OregonLive.

I wish I could take credit for the title of this post, but that goes to a very close friend.
