It is finally dawning of Democrats, liberals and our increasingly effete corporate media hacks that Donald Trump is our President and that should he somehow be removed from the Office, he will be replaced by the like-minded J.D. Vance, at least until 2028 and probably longer.
Rather than quietly reformulate their strategy, raise money and try to win in 2026 and beyond, the Democratic strategy is violent protests and lately, multiple protests on June 14 entitled “No Kings Day” in which our corporate media in cahoots with the Democratic Party is organizing further protests against President Trump’s parade celebrating of Flag Day and coincidentally his birthday, also on June 14. Time magazine published [ [link removed] ]the schedule of these protests and the New York Times is practically offering its readers free Uber rides to increase attendance.
The narrative being propagated is that President Trump is a tyrant behaving like a king. The goal is to create so much anarchy that the average person gets disgusted and blames President Trump, thus making it impossible for him to govern.
I was going to write a response to this, but I was eclipsed by Connecticut Republican State Senator Rob Sampson, whose comments I repeat unedited below:
Good. I’m glad to see them finally opposing unchecked power. But they’re looking in the wrong direction.
Connecticut Republican State Senator Rob Sampson
The real authoritarianism in America today isn’t coming from kings, or Republicans. It’s coming from the modern Democrat Party—and their allies in blue-state governments like Connecticut.
Let’s talk about what authoritarianism actually looks like:
Forced business closures—while big box stores and liquor outlets stayed open.
Churches shuttered by executive order, while casinos stayed lit.
Stay-at-home orders and travel bans that treated law-abiding citizens like criminals.
Mask mandates and vaccine requirements for children—threatening parents with school exclusion if they didn't comply.
Workers fired for declining a shot. Students banned from class.
Censorship of political and scientific dissent—with the federal government colluding with
Facebook to silence anything they called “misinformation.”
Cancel culture targeting people who dared to disagree with the narrative.
Speech codes and DEI-driven policies that discriminate based on race and ideology.
Efforts to criminalize opinion—misgender someone and you might be punished.
“Misinformation czars” deciding what truths you’re allowed to say out loud.
Gun bans, magazine limits, and lawsuits designed to bankrupt lawful manufacturers.
Illegal immigrants prioritized over citizens for housing, benefits, and legal protection.
And a bloated, top-down bureaucracy that passes rules without votes and treats every citizen as guilty until proven innocent.
This isn’t freedom. This is the quiet rise of soft tyranny—and in places like Connecticut, it’s already law.
Meanwhile, Republicans—especially conservatives like me—have spent years standing up for free speech, medical freedom, religious liberty, the right to defend yourself, and the right to live without government breathing down your neck.
We are the real civil libertarians. We always have been. So let’s be honest: Accusing Republicans of authoritarianism is like accusing firefighters of arson. It’s absurd. It’s dishonest. And it’s exactly backward.
To the “No Kings” crowd: if you truly believe in freedom, then join me in standing up to the real authoritarians—the ones writing mandates, silencing dissent, and ruling by decree. Let’s end the hypocrisy. Let’s end the overreach. Let’s end the rule of kings—in every form.
Thank you Senator Samspon.
