Some of my Favorite May Day Rally Photos

Young and old made the journey from the City County Building up State Street to the Capitol. Those of us with youth may have taken longer to get up that hill... but we made the trek none the less and for that we are all stronger because we did this together!

One of my gorgeous gals enjoying a few moments of childhood fun before the long march up to the Capitol building. I must say I am truly proud of them both for making the trek with very few complaints, and a TON of smiles. They were real troopers.

The above picture, when the Black Bloc made their presence known coming around the corner beating their drums and waving their flags. This was a very powerful moment, one where the energy was lifted beyond my expectations.

Apparently, Liberals Are The Illuminati

posted 10/5/2012 by the Salt City Sinner Greetings, sheeple, from my stronghold high atop the Wells Fargo Building in downtown Salt City, where I type this before a massive, glowing bank of monitors that display the ongoing progress of my 23-point plan for complete social control. Whether you want to demonize me as a "liberal," or prefer the Glenn Beck update "progressive," we all know the truth, and it's time to pull the curtain aside: like all left-leaning persons, I am actually a member of the Illuminati.

Are these separate questions, or have they become scrambled together? Given that 81% of Evangelicals voted for Trump , it’s safe to conclude that the latter is the case. Unpacking the tangled webbing of fear, greed, superstition, and credulity that binds white Evangelicals to Donald J. Trump, the most profane and libertine President in United States history, will be the project of generations. Religious conservatives didn’t get here overnight, and it’s an odd place for them to have arrived at, but the journey isn’t as mysterious as it might seem at first glance. A good place to start is Believe Me: the Evangelical Road to Donald Trump , by John Fea .
