Peoria 50501's FREE AMERICA: Stars and Stripes & Equal Rights Rally was a pièce de résistance! Thanks to rabble rowsers who expressed rage against the fascist regime while rallying for democracy, due process, & true freedom for all, with live music by yours truly. [Photos by Michele Haptonstahl]

At Saturday's D-Day for Democracy Demonstration, Peoria 50501 included a mock trial of the wannabe king wreaking fascist destruction on our country. We made some good trouble & good fun to fuel our resistance! Glad to serve again as emcee for our public protests to repel the cruel, sadistic regime.

Peoria 50501 & allies were out in FORCE at the HANDS OFF OUR DEMOCRACY 2.0 Protest & Rally! Served as emcee - could only manage 2 photos that don't capture long lines of activists stretching along the busy road, in relentless opposition to the authoritarian regime. We are the MANY! They are the FEW!
