Democrat behavior at SOTU was appalling
There are certain situations where people showcase their true colors. SOTU is one of those and what we witnessed was appalling, unpatriotic and an example of everything that is wrong in America.

Belcher: No Kings, The Mask of Non-Violence
“Non-violence,” to most, means the purposed avoidance of aggression – both immediately and as a direct result of the task at hand. The “No Kings” protest I attended yesterday, October 2025, claimed this term for itself, posing as a peaceful stand against executive overreach.
