I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

Sounds like a threat against the American people. We'll just have to protest harder and organize more.

I liked the Elvis costume a lot, and the "Waiting for the Avatar to thaw" referencing The Last Airbender

Lying and maybe projecting! Fear sells and the right wing media sells violence and civil war to their viewers. But I just want peace and justice. Lots of people were honking in support of our peaceful protest!

DHS says they “don’t arrest U.S. citizens for immigration enforcement.”

But at least 170 Americans they’ve detained know that’s not true.

Don’t ignore their stories.

If Trump can detain citizens—including combat Veterans—for days without cause, no one is safe from his whims.

They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.

At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

More Central Illinois coverage of Peoria 50501's powerful (and fun) No Kings Peoria protest and rally. Seems we're cracking the code on getting much-deserved attention from mainstream media.
