The least we can do is protest in the streets on Jan 18 in Washington or in many other cities. Please come out to Manhattan’s The People’s March om Centre st lower Manhattan and take the 6 train. I will be a performer of a few of my anti Trump songs. 10 AM to 3. Here are samples of compositions:

Thank you for listening. I'm doing all I can do which is to write, sing and express the word.
That's good work. Keep it up Bill. If there was ever a time for the resurgence of protest songs, it's now. We NEED a lot of Woody Guthrie's spirit out there.
Good Mike, capitalizing what "We NEED". I'll add what I need
...... acapella choruses -- crowds of voices blending tensions, hopes, discordances and harmonies. The whole instrument of our society needs tuning and that's a togethering practice.
I think that focused art will play a large role in the coming months & years, much as it did in the 60's and the audience will respond with the "togethering practice"
Love this metaphor! So true. Thank you, Joan.
Indeed we do…
Thank you, Mike although I would be reluctant to be compared with the great Woody Guthrie.
Being a torch bearer is what matters...and creating content that works for now.
being a torch bearer - I like that!
Yeah, Mike said the *spirit* of Woody Guthrie. Non-elitist inclusive art works fine and I've messaged a few NYC friends about the time and whereabouts on Jan. 18th.
👍
The election was hacked and no one is talking about it!
It is obvious. Look at the data. It is NOT a “conspiracy theory!” It’s almost certain Harris won. Look at the data: This video explains it well:
https://youtu.be/qmzGOQwMG_k
We need to take ACTION NOW! Send the video to the media, the Senators, the FBI and the election crime unit at the DOJ. Call your local news. Send to your friends & family. We can’t afford to stop fighting a fraudulent election!
I have been saying right along. There is little doubt - there is and will be a ton of hard evidence. There is no limit to which these extremists will go. They believe they won in 2020 because they did everything they could to steal it and they succeed this election.
Yes Harvey, quantifying "them" and then taking "them" to task is made tough by the (under-lying) fact that so many people harbor a (learned) resentment for people they don't like the looks of. And, physical appearance, which they relate to some 'thing' ..., some "thing" they feel is offensive, is all these jerks need to harbor indiscriminate beliefs or behave in an indiscriminate manner, which includes how they vote. That's it. errr, that's my humble opinion (at least). :)
I agree Harvey that if there were a way to rig voting machines, it is the Republicans who would be doing it. Plain and simple.
Yes, Marlo and Harvey. I totally agree and have been saying so ever since the election. The evidence in this video is hard to refute. And there is more evidence out there. I pray that investigations are underway as we speak!
Carol, we need to make NOISE! Email the media. We need to get it out there.

“Nine Ways To Prove The 2024 Election Was Stolen”
https://open.substack.com/pub/tinfoilmatt/p/nine-ways-to-prove-the-2024-election
@Marlo I have said this since the night of the election. Something was wrong. And with DT broadcasting that he didn’t need voters and that he & Johnson had a “secret plan”, it was no surprise.
So who can do anything about it at this point?
I called the fraud department, “Manager of special investigations section” who seemed very skeptical and combative. Suspicious of his unhelpfulness, I asked him if he had supported Trump. He grew very angry and said that was “personal” which confirmed my suspicions. (The fact that I am a registered Democrat is not private). So I wonder if Republicans are taking jobs in these sensitive areas which could control what actually gets investigated…
I watched this very closely and sent it on to two very smart friends. I sure hope SOMEHOW this could prove the manipulation that so many of us feel HAD to have happened, and keep trump from office!!
So, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Also, I heard a saying long ago - you can prove anything with statistics. I believe both are true. Now that said, the evidence provided in that video is very interesting indeed. But like a good solid scientific theory, it needs to be backed up with corroberating evidence, and it has to be repeated by other independent statisticians. And importantly, there must be an explanation for all aspects of the claim - like how do you rig the voting machines, in secret, to switch votes for Kalama to Trump, without affecting down-ballot votes. Before I jump on board with such a theory, I would require at least that.
I sure hope, if there is anything to this, that people who can make a difference have been looking into this. If it is true, it is imperative it be exposed. If not, or it cannot be proven - well then y'all are no better than the MAGA election denial folks. Can you imagine if MSNBC got downwind of this? And it had some strength to it? They would blow the lid off of the news cycle. Funny - it hasn't happened has it.
It COULD be proven that it was rigged (and that Harris actually won) with HAND recounts in the swing states; 2 precincts in each swing state of a blue wall county.
The data points to the need for this. Until that happens, Trump should not be president. (He shouldn’t anyway per the constitution).
I would love to see it. And I would say that if the campaign and the Democratic party suspected same, would we not see this effort taking place?
Maybe the people who can do something about it are busy doing other things? Mainstream media won’t print it. Harris capitulated before counting was finished & went to Hawaii. Biden has been busy running the country.

One peak at todays photo say’s those fraudulent elections have been going on for far too long
I have watched this on Utube and I assume the Democratic Party and Kamala Harris are aware of it. Is the final step the 'Supreme court'?
You cannot assume anything. She prematurely conceded without looking at this data and before the count was completed, going on an extended vacation to Hawaii where no one could contact her.
We must at least try. It’s not as hard as fighting in WWII like my dad did, losing partial hearing as a result. Make some NOISE!
Indeed!
I agree!
May you be this generation's Bob Dylan.
We have too many artists stuck on money and not enough Peter, Paul and Mary, CSNY, Bob Dylan, Bob Marly types. Yes, they too got wealthy and famous. But, their foundations didn't really change from the horrors of the 50's and MLK awareness in the 60's.
I truly believe the powerful today are the same that ordered the National Guard out to Ohio to quell the peaceful protest ("Four dead in Ohio"). The authoritarians never really leave and believe (just like SCOTUS 6) that they are the only moral actors in this.
My generation is already housed in nursing homes.lol. lol. lol.
Nothing like having a captive audience.
Well said.
Go for it, Bill!
Protesting on Jan 18, 2025 is ONE important thing we can do. There are MANY more. Resist, Persist, and SPEAK UP whenever possible and necessary. ✊❤️🦉
I plan to march in Savannah 💪🏼
In the late 70s and early 80s my husband and some friends who were in grad school were disturbed by the political situation here in the U.S. As a result, they founded the "European Cabaret" to write and perform protest songs. We aren't European and some of the others weren't either, but they had keen observational skills and were quite talented. Some of the titles were, "Neutron
Bomb Blues", "Sperm Patrol", and "There's a Hole in the Budget". I wonder why none of the younger people aren't doing that now.
Great job!!!
