Biography
Joshua Ames Cartrette, 46, is an activist from Oregon City, Oregon. On June 14, 2025 — No Kings Day, chosen to coincide with Donald Trump's birthday — he was arrested at a Portland protest against ICE immigration enforcement. He was charged with misdemeanor assault on a federal officer under 18 U.S.C. § 111(a) and held approximately two days in federal custody before release pending proceedings. His case was among dozens arising from intensified federal prosecution of immigration-related demonstrators during the Trump administration's second term.
