ANT-IFA and Aunt Ifa had fun greeting everyone along the protest march. Sign on back says: Anti-Fascist = Pro-Democracy.

It was a big crowd making their way along the route.

No Kings protest Saturday in Rockford, Illinois. Close to a thousand or more (haven't found any official counts) showed up at Haight Park for the Protest and the march across the City. ANT-IFA and Aunt Ifa were happy to have our pictures taken and greeted a lot of people during the peaceful event.

I just read that foreign media outlets are calling the Republicans in the U.S. The American Fascist Party.
Going forward any of my references to the old GOP will be with their new acronym AFP.
Yes, remember to tell all your friends and relatives to refer to them as AFP. Remember A.F.P.

I added flaps to the wing, and moved the aileron controls out further on the wing.

Ailerons controlled from servos in wing and flaps servo is where aileron control was on plans. A bit of an challenge to make it work.

Servo and battery tray in fuselage. It's going to be tight in there.

Starting to take shape. The canopy of this model works perfectly as a access hatch to place batteries, and once I figured out the best way to make the hatch without compromising the strength of the fuselage, it went together well.

Here's an update on the Herr AT-6 remote control model airplane build: I'm making progress on the plane, and the changes to the plans have caused some problems, but I worked them out. It's looking good. I've fitted most of the fuselage and controls on surfaces, it's starting to look like a plane.

I have and will continue to. But you know why I say it here ? Because @bsky.app is 30m strong and growing quickly. The collective wisdom and influence of users here is far greater than any individual democrat.

I can't say it enough. Bluesky can be the influence that can counter RW media.

About 75% of Americans oppose Trump's pardon of violent J6 criminals, who can now own guns again.
Voters cared about inflation and immigration.
They did not want this.
He doesn't care.

Beginning the wing build on the Herr Engineering model kit the AT-6 trainer. Remote control airplane converting from fuel to electric power plus additions like flaps and retractable landing gear. I really overdid this one, but it's sweet.

Putting together the fuselage and tail sections. Still a lot of work to do.

Entire wing done per the plans. Will modify this wing to make flaps and retractable landing gear, just like the real plane.

Completely modified wing and flap system as well as "in the wing" servo mounts on the ailerons. I took a complete redesign of the planes fuselage and front center of the wing to make all the changes.

I'm hoping some of you might enjoy seeing my work on some balsa wood airplanes I build and fly "some times I crash, repair, and fly again." This is a Herr Engineering model kit the AT-6 trainer. I made a lot of changes, but it turned out well. More to come later.

One Christmas, they put me on Santa's knee and he asked me what I wanted.

So I told him I wanted the Americans who control 90% of the wealth to pay 90% of the taxes.

What do you want, I was 6.

Onward Fake Christian soldiers!
For our True Messiah's love
He's our Pussy Grabbing Grifter
and the eagle eats the dove!

His lies & hate have brought us
Into spiritual distortion
We reject all Jesus taught us
