You might remember when spirited libertarian activist Adam Kokesh loaded a shotgun at Freedom Plaza on July 4, 2013. The stunt, along with a police raid on his Herndon, Va. home that landed him with gun and drug charges, ultimately led to a sentence of two years probation back in January 2014, following 103 days in D.C. Jail.

“It’s been a very long 23 months of probation,” Kokesh says in his most recent video. “They finally seem to have had enough of me. My probation is officially over.” It ended one month earlier than expected.

While Kokesh moved to Los Angeles shortly after his sentencing, he had to return to D.C. a number of times to attend court.

“If you’ve never been on supervised probation, it’s hard to imagine just what an awkward punishment it is to have your fate in the hands of a miserable bureaucrat,” Kokesh told DCist. “The ones assigned to me were all very unprofessional, which I think speaks not so much to them as individuals, but the institution.”

Kokesh moved to D.C. from New Mexico in April 2011 for an opportunity to host his own television show on RT America, but Adam vs. The Man was cancelled a mere four months later.

But his fight continued. He built his own recording studio, where he produced a podcast and videos. After a year, he moved to Herndon because “It was the cheapest place to rent a mini-McMansion within driving distance of D.C.,” Kokesh says. “I still liked being able to go to D.C. to cover protests and use the city as a backdrop.”

That all ended with when his legal woes began in July of 2013. The terms for Kokesh’s probation included a ban on his appearance in the District, except for legal appointments. But the conclusion of his probation doesn’t mean that you’ll be seeing Kokesh’s rabble rousing around town.

“I would never want to live in D.C. or anywhere near it without a very strong incentive,” he says. Instead, he and his fiance are planning on buying property in Arizona, where he wants to build an “Earthship-inspired home.”

Other plans for Kokesh include a presidential run in 2020, which would presumably bring him back to D.C. to “peacefully dissolve the entire federal government in four years.”
