As of now we don't know where the 2026 gathering will be, last year there was talk about it being around the Great Lakes, and lately some have been pushing for it to be in the East around Pennsylvania or New York. Around March they generally announce it will be in one of three or four locations, then they let us know the exact location in June. So stay tuned for further updates, and please post any info you happen to hear.
The good news: less LEOs on duty thanks to staff cutbacks in national forests. Bad news: Trump is nuts and going after anyone who he can't con or grift, esp. liberal free thinkers.
I also think there will be less police harassment due to Trump decriminalizing marijuana on the federal level. And I don't think he much gives a shit about Rainbow Gatherings, to him it's just a bunch of freaks partying in the woods.
