A welded blockbuster type sign in tall letters reads "FUCK YOU ELON" in black steel cuts a against a stark sandy desert. The sky is deep blue and clear, and tire tracks go in every direction, at Burning Man 2025.

RFK JR made an appearance at Burning Man.

#PolioRodeo
#BurningMan
A photo taken by participants of Burning Man 2025. Picture is o f an artisitic display, I mock-patient is centered in a vintage iron lung and an artistic likeness of RFK Jr. is riding the iron lung like a mechanical bull. RFK Jr. features full cowboy regalia with chaps, flannel shirt and fringed vest, cowboy hat and a cigarette. A top his head is a cartoonish worm which share in his excitement or radiance, hat flung back. The patient in the iron lung is just along for the ride. Next to the display is a sign which reads "The Polio Rodeo." This was an artist installation at Burning Man.

not fine 🔥🇺🇸
This is fine meme. A cartoon dog with a chapeau sits in a burning room surrounded by fire. The dog sits with a cup of coffee and says, "This is fine" (sarcasm).

Here are the crime rates of Washington DC,
verses those of RED states.

There is no justification for National Guard in DC.

This is an autocratic misdirection. It is also another legal precursor to deploying larger forces in Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago.

Below, crime rates per 1000 citizens
Republican home states crime rates : Mike Johnson (speaker) Louisiana's 4th - 6.2/1000 John Thune of South Dakota - 2.7/1000 Lindsey Graham of South Carolina - 4.7/1000 Marco Rubio of Florida - 3.8/1000 Greg Abbott of Texas - 4.06/1000 Tommy Tuberville of Alabama - 4.04/1000

A minor spelling mistake does not dampen the message, "Only you can prevent FACIST (fascist) LIARS. A protest sign made in Virginia feature "Smokey the bear" and this is a play on "Forest Fires." A simple and creative poster that was made with construction paper and a creative mind for the right cause.

A scenic photo of Coast Highway is presented, with a cross walk to the beach. On the light post is a flier for a demonstration against Donald Trump and his current anti-democratic regime. They have broken all norms, of checks and balances, and Trump rules like a rotten King. The flier is stark and white with the Statue of Liberty and reads : SAVE OUR DEMOCRACY. This has been the flier which has gotten torn down the least. Another scenic photo of Coast Highway is presented, with a cross walk to the beach.

Posted hard on the 4th of July.
I always use the same spots and know the best in town.
There are a few MAGA hotspots like this first one, and this is
usually the result despite "dog ears" on the tape.
So July 17 remains!

A July 17 Flyer was removed her in front of "Libertarian" Peter Blake headquarters. MAGA's are usually too upset to just pull the tape. And here they are trolled further, because "July 17" remains on the pole. Join us on July 17, Main Beach Park in Laguna Beach at 11:00 to resist Trump. The back of a digital Walk Sign where I hid a "No Kings" flyer "July 17. " MAGA's are usually too upset to just pull the tape. And here they are trolled further, because "July 17" remains. Join us on July 17, Main Beach Park in Laguna Beach at 11:00 to resist Trump. I put them up high out of reach on poles at 4th of July fireworks, and still pulled.

A flyer designed by Brendon Crigler for "No Kings" rally for John Lewis. Thursday July 17 at 11:00 on Coast Highway in Laguna Beach. The image shows a fist with pulled daisies between the fingers. This is meant to symbolize "grass roots." A symbol of a NO SIGN over "Project 2025" to the left and a "NO KINGS" emblem, a crossed out crown, is to the right.
