Thousands came to the annual PRIDE Festival yesterday in Dixon Illinois. It was a joyous, uplifting event but one man had to bring his megaphone to to shame all who entered. Fortunately four local churches were represented inside the event to remind all that God is Love.

Yesterday the Lee County Democrats in red Illinois had a fundraising barbecue. For the first time since the election, life felt hopeful again. The weather was gorgeous. The crowd was optimistic and energized. A congressional candidate stopped by. We can do this. We will not let hate win.

Thank you to the thousands of patriots who have been showing up all over this great land to demand an end to the chaos, the immorality, the lies, the hate. Ogle Co. Courthouse, Oregon Il at 5:30on May 1 & march across the Rock Falls to Sterling Il bridge 9:45 am Sat. May 3 to Grandon at 10:30.

So proud of our Illinois governor, JB Pritzker, who has clearly called all of us who care to mass mobilization. It was the boost we needed to keep fighting the good fight. Join us on May 3: 9:00 Rock Falls, IL, 9:45 march across the bridge arriving at Grandon Center, Sterling by 10:30.

Still under the delusion that DOGE’s purpose is to save money? A Wall Street Journal analysis earlier this month found that "spending since the [Trump] inauguration is $154 billion more than in the same period in 2024 during the administration of former President Joe Biden. “ Popular Information

Our Trump resistance group has met weekly since November, 2016. New people join us each week. Do we ever say to them, “Where have you been?” No, we do not. We are happy to welcome each and every one of them. We are pleased to open our arms and say, “Come on in. There is a place for you here.”

Sean Casten on Saturday: Why do people shout their hate and whisper their love?

Thank you Rep Casten for so calmly answering our many questions. Too bad our own congressman, Darin LaHood, will not give his constituents the same courtesy.

Looking forward to Saturday when Rep Sean Casten will come to the IL 16th. We are going to find out what a live congressman looks like!

CEOs are chicken. Republican congress persons are chicken. But we are not. We are speaking. The power of the people is stronger than the people in power.

This guy keeps us laughing even in the darkest of times!!!

Next Saturday, Congressman Sean Casten is coming to Dixon in the Illinois 16th. Our congressman, Darin LaHood, won’t hold a town hall for his constituents so we are excited that Rep Casten will meet with us over our country’s Constitutional crisis.

Great day for patriots!

This will be our 4th protest at this location. We appreciate the Sterling Illinois police keeping us safe.

Just a wild guess but perhaps the average age at the protest in Sterling Illinois yesterday was 75 years old. Why? We can see clearly the train wreck our country has become. We have been the movement generation since we were 17 years old. We are the activist generation.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social Rep Jamie Raskin has created a FOIA form letter for people to demand details on if and how their data stored on government systems has been used. They flood the zone, we can flood the zone right back within the structure of the law. jamieraskin.com/doge-privacy...
