About the Event:
On June 14th, we rally to confront the crises fueled by the Trump regime—defending marginalized communities, exposing corruption, and demanding real change. Our protest features powerful speeches and demonstrations, united in resistance and solidarity.
Following the protest, we’ll host a sharp, satirical carnival—not to celebrate Trump, but to mock and expose his absurdity. Using humor, parody, and bold satire, we aim to weaken his fragile grip on power and turn his birthday into a spectacle of resistance.
Why Satire Matters:
Art and humor are vital tools of resistance—breaking censorship, exposing hypocrisy, and inspiring collective action. Our carnival will feature satirical games, art installations highlighting injustices, and performances like drag shows and comedy—all aimed at undermining the regime’s legitimacy.

11a-12p: Ingham County Democrats' Tribute Rally for Ted Lawson
