An Update and Thank You from J6 Political Prisoner Ryan Samsel
Gateway Pundit ^ | Jun. 29, 2024 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 06/29/2024 12:48:53 PM PDT by george76

Today, on June 28th, 2024, a significant event occurred in my life that I will always remember. My name is Ryan Samsel, and last night, I witnessed Donald J. Trump’s victory over Joe Biden.

As always, I said my nightly prayer and woke up feeling a sense of goodness that I can’t quite explain. Then, someone informed me that the Supreme Court overturned the 1512(c) charges. I was in a state of shock and disbelief, unable to fully comprehend the news.

Let me begin by sharing that I have endured immense suffering and hardships throughout this entire ordeal since January 6, 2021. I have been through hell, facing countless challenges and injustices. Why did I have to go through all of this? What did I do to deserve such treatment? Unfortunately, I cannot say that this development will personally benefit me, as my attorney seems indifferent towards my case. Moreover, the judge overseeing my trial is biased and seems to hold prejudiced views. She was appointed by Joe Biden and has shown no willingness to allow me to return home, even for necessary surgery.

For me, this ruling may not make a significant difference, as my lawyer, Stanley Woodward, believes I am a violent person, and Judge Jia Cobb shares the same opinion. However, for many others, this decision is a victory and a statement. It sets our leader, Donald J. Trump, free. We, the Jan6ers, have recognized Trump as our leader, and we also have our faith in Jesus Christ, whom we consider our king. This ruling gives hope and demonstrates that if we stand up and fight instead of surrendering like cowards, we can achieve success.

I must admit that I was disappointed with the Supreme Court’s recent decision to uphold the media’s power. It felt like a blow to my hopes for the 1512 charge. However, despite this setback, I firmly believe that my suffering was not in vain. Even though I may not benefit directly from this ruling, I find solace in the fact that others will. I am proud of those who have lawyers willing to stand up against corrupt and cowardly judges. Throughout my journey, I have experienced beatings, confinement, and degrading treatment.

...

I vividly remember the faces of the young students in the jail, and I was sitting in restraint chair in my own urine very run down looking I felt a deep sense of purpose. I realized that I was enduring all of this for them, even though they were unaware of it. I refused every opportunity to lie and betray others, including Trump, by signing a guilty plea. I knew that by doing so, I would be sent to the most dangerous prison in America, where people are often killed. My judge ensured that outcome because I encouraged others to fight, to never plead guilty, and to never give up. I was labeled a radical, but those who labeled me as such did not experience the same suffering I did. They did not lose their father, their sight, or their ability to speak to their spouse, who holds power of attorney. Unless one has been in my shoes, it is impossible to fully comprehend the magnitude of these experiences.

I prayed relentlessly for justice, and today, I received a small glimmer of it. Even though I will remain behind bars for now, I am filled with pride for my friends who will be released. Please, never forget the sacrifices we made and cherish your freedom. I wept alone in my cell, not out of jealousy or anger, but because I know that my brothers and sisters will soon be reunited with their families. Deep down, I feel like my suffering and beatings were not in vain. I know that I am not alone in this sentiment, as many others have also endured their own trials. I am incredibly proud of those who chose to go to trial because their courage and pursuit of truth ultimately set others free. To those who pleaded guilty, I do not want to hear any regrets or feelings of inadequacy. You refused to stand strong in the face of tyranny.

I want the media platforms that abandoned us to know this: you left us behind. I have no apologies for saying this, but Jim Hoft at Gateway was the only one who gave us a voice from the very beginning. Where were the others? Where was Lindell TV, InfoWars, Fox News, and conservative AM radio? None of you stood with us during this challenging time. I have been denied access to almost every media network that claims to be God-fearing and patriotic. Are you truly God-fearing, or do you fear the judgment of others? Only a few cared enough to hear our side of the story, and I am grateful for Jim Hoft and those at Gateway for providing us with fair and unbiased coverage. It was because of them that people got to know who we truly are. The overturning of the 1512 charge is not only due to their efforts, but also to everyone who refused to accept a plea deal and chose to fight instead. We knew we would likely lose, but we fought anyway, and today, I can proudly say that we won.

Just as the Spartan said to Leonidas, it was an honor to die alongside you and as Leonidas said to him, it was an honor to have lived by yours.

wow.this reminds me of hearing from Natan Sharansky how inspirational Reagan’s words about the Soviet Union being the ‘evil empire” were. this little bit of information buoyed the wpirits of the Gulag risoners and carried them through. little things mean a lot when you need hope

Wow! This poor guy admits that he probably will not be freed, but rejoices in the fact that some of his co-prisoners may be released, based on the Supreme Court ruling this week.

And he is so right about the media ignoring this story. Julie Kelly covered it for quite a while, but as he mentions, Fox, AM radio and other conservative outlets have avoided it like the plague. Tucker had a few stories about the J6ers at times, but I haven’t really kept track of him after he left Fox. Hannity has never touched this story, to my knowledge.

Please keep these people in prayer. Google “scriptures for justice” if so inclined.

USA 2024…a guy peacefully walks into the capital, waved in by uniparty conspirators, protesting a fraudulent election and is given 10 years hard time. Antifa and BLM burn cities, killing innocents, and Uniparty breaks every election law and nothing is done.

Cowboy Logic on Real America’s Voice covers this extensively. They tried to talk to one person in that Gulag Julie Kelly is still covering it every once in a while it’s not mentioned on other programs but cowboy logic is the main stay for these people in my opinion. Too bad they don’t get more airtime than on Saturdays and Sundays.

Would we treat liberal protesters like this? No, we could never be as horrible as democrat goons and thugs.

Samuels is not a good person. Now I dont believe he should be treated any worse than any other criminal because that makes the law just as bad as the criminal.

What I do ask is that at least some of you guys run his name through whatever search engine and see this guys violent past.

He was convicted of repeatedly submerging his pregnant girlfriends head under water and beating her.

He was also convicted of unlawfully restraining another girlfriend for 5 hours and choking to the point of unconsciousness during that time.

He was convicted for running a woman off the road with is vehicle, damaged her windows and threatened to kill her.

He has a total of 9 CONVICTIONS (not just arrests) for assaults over the period of 2010-2021 when he was arrested on Jan 6 for, assaulting a female officer.

He was on probation when that assault occurred on Jan 6 and he also had a warrant out for his arrest in New Jersey at that time for...assault again.

There are a lot of good people in jail because of the Feds misuse of the the felony obstruction law. Jason isn’t in prison for that. He is not a good person and it appears he has issues with women. By reading his post hopefully he has found peace with himself and God because he mentions him often in that summary.

“Where was Lindell TV”

I am a little confused by that. First the main story on Lindell TV has always been election fraud. But because of Lindell TV we have Lou Dobbs. And Dobbs speaks out against what happened to the J6 people very much. I believe that he has interviewed people involved too.

Tucker got fired from Fox over it and it upended his life. But he did show some of the footage that the DOJ had been withholding and it was responsible for getting the sentence reduced of Jacob Chansley (painted face shaman) and ultimatley freed, IIRC.

Original poster just typed Samuels by mistake, but Samsel is not a good guy.
