In the present day, on June twenty eighth, 2024, a major occasion occurred in my life that I’ll at all times bear in mind. My identify is Ryan Samsel, and final night time, I witnessed Donald J. Trump’s victory over Joe Biden.
As at all times, I stated my nightly prayer and awoke feeling a way of goodness that I can’t fairly clarify. Then, somebody knowledgeable me that the Supreme Courtroom overturned the 1512(c) prices. I used to be in a state of shock and disbelief, unable to totally comprehend the information.
Let me start by sharing that I’ve endured immense struggling and hardships all through this complete ordeal since January 6, 2021. I’ve been by means of hell, dealing with numerous challenges and injustices. Why did I’ve to undergo all of this? What did I do to deserve such remedy? Sadly, I can’t say that this growth will personally profit me, as my lawyer appears detached in the direction of my case. Furthermore, the choose overseeing my trial is biased and appears to carry prejudiced views. She was appointed by Joe Biden and has proven no willingness to permit me to return dwelling, even for mandatory surgical procedure.
For me, this ruling might not make a major distinction, as my lawyer, Stanley Woodward, believes I’m a violent individual, and Decide Jia Cobb shares the identical opinion. Nonetheless, for a lot of others, this choice is a victory and an announcement. It units our chief, Donald J. Trump, free. We, the Jan6ers, have acknowledged Trump as our chief, and we even have our religion in Jesus Christ, whom we contemplate our king. This ruling offers hope and demonstrates that if we arise and combat as an alternative of surrendering like cowards, we are able to obtain success.
I need to admit that I used to be disillusioned with the Supreme Courtroom’s latest choice to uphold the media’s energy. It felt like a blow to my hopes for the 1512 cost. Nonetheless, regardless of this setback, I firmly consider that my struggling was not in useless. Regardless that I could not profit immediately from this ruling, I discover solace in the truth that others will. I’m happy with those that have legal professionals prepared to face up in opposition to corrupt and cowardly judges. All through my journey, I’ve skilled beatings, confinement, and degrading remedy.

I vividly bear in mind the faces of the younger college students within the jail, and I used to be sitting in restraint chair in my very own urine very run down wanting I felt a deep sense of function. I noticed that I used to be enduring all of this for them, despite the fact that they have been unaware of it. I refused each alternative to lie and betray others, together with Trump, by signing a responsible plea. I knew that by doing so, I might be despatched to essentially the most harmful jail in America, the place persons are usually killed. My choose ensured that final result as a result of I inspired others to combat, to by no means plead responsible, and to by no means quit. I used to be labeled a radical, however those that labeled me as such didn’t expertise the identical struggling I did. They didn’t lose their father, their sight, or their means to talk to their partner, who holds energy of lawyer. Until one has been in my footwear, it’s inconceivable to totally comprehend the magnitude of those experiences.
I prayed relentlessly for justice, and in the present day, I acquired a small glimmer of it. Regardless that I’ll stay behind bars for now, I’m crammed with delight for my pals who can be launched. Please, always remember the sacrifices we made and cherish your freedom. I wept alone in my cell, not out of jealousy or anger, however as a result of I do know that my brothers and sisters will quickly be reunited with their households. Deep down, I really feel like my struggling and beatings weren’t in useless. I do know that I’m not alone on this sentiment, as many others have additionally endured their very own trials. I’m extremely happy with those that selected to go to trial as a result of their braveness and pursuit of fact in the end set others free. To those that pleaded responsible, I don’t wish to hear any regrets or emotions of inadequacy. You refused to face robust within the face of tyranny.
I need the media platforms that deserted us to know this: you left us behind. I’ve no apologies for saying this, however Jim Hoft at Gateway was the one one who gave us a voice from the very starting. The place have been the others? The place was Lindell TV, InfoWars, Fox Information, and conservative AM radio? None of you stood with us throughout this difficult time.

We knew we might seemingly lose, however we fought anyway, and in the present day, I can proudly say that we gained.
