Let’s be clear: there’s a push to make you forget. The architects of the COVID-era lockdowns, the so-called experts who reveled in their newfound power, are now asking for a collective amnesty. They want you to believe that strangling our economy, shuttering our schools, and shredding our freedoms was all just a well-intentioned mistake. It’s a brazen attempt at national gaslighting, and they think we’re all naive enough to fall for it.

Their entire strategy hinges on public amnesia. They are gambling that the righteous anger we all felt while being lectured by unelected bureaucrats has simply fizzled out. But forgetting is a luxury we cannot afford, because accountability is the bedrock of a free society. To forget would be to give a free pass to the very people who proved themselves unworthy of public trust and unfit to lead. As it turns out, some aren’t just asking for forgiveness—they’re demanding a promotion.

From ‘Fox News’:

In a sane world, those who engaged in such embarrassing, humiliating, discrediting anti-science behavior, and prolific disregard for reality would have no possibility of somehow being promoted. But if you need more proof we do not live in a sane world, look no further than Dr. Amy Acton, the former top public health official in Ohio and current Democrat Party Gubernatorial candidate in the state. Because she perfectly exemplifies the disastrous failure of our politicians and “experts” in the COVID era.

Dr. Acton wasn’t just another public health official; she appointed herself the moral arbiter of joy—a job no one asked her to do. While Ohioans were desperate for any small distraction from the crushing lockdowns she championed, Acton was online, playing hall monitor. Resurfaced social media posts from 2020 show her injecting herself into casual chats among Cleveland Browns fans with the warmth of a prison guard.

When a fan expressed hope for a Super Bowl run, she coldly replied, “No. Too many people.” When another tried to find some levity in quarantine by talking about the team, she snapped back with a condescending, “Grow up #StayAtHome.” She peppered fan threads with sterile commands like “Please social distance” and “We are in a pandemic,” as if these hardworking people needed her to remind them of the miserable reality she helped create.

The Scorn for Everyday Americans

Make no mistake, this wasn’t some misguided public health strategy. This was contempt, pure and simple. Acton’s posts reveal an elitist disdain for the simple pleasures that sustain communities and define the American spirit. Football, for millions, is more than just a game. It is a tradition, a bond between generations, and a welcome escape from the hardships of life. For Acton, it was just another unauthorized gathering of happiness that needed to be squashed under the heel of her authority.

Her online crusade wasn’t about science; it was an exercise in raw power and control. She wasn’t engaging in a good-faith debate; she was chastising citizens for daring to find a sliver of normalcy. Is that the voice of a public servant, or a petty tyrant drunk on a little bit of power? You know the answer. This is the unmasked face of the expert class: dismissive and utterly convinced they know best.

From Fear-Monger to Power-Seeker

You almost have to admire the nerve. The same woman who wagged her finger at football fans for having a little fun now wants to be their governor. It’s a masterclass in shamelessness. She is not running from her record of fear-mongering and hysteria; she is implicitly running on it, assuming the people she treated with such scorn will reward her with the highest office in the state.

This is the ultimate test of our resolve. Will we hold these lockdown tyrants accountable for their actions, or will we validate their abuse of power by handing them even more? A vote for Amy Acton is an endorsement of every pointless mandate, every canceled tradition, and every moment of condescension from an official who clearly despises the people she seeks to govern.

This isn’t just an Ohio problem. This is a preview, a test case for accountability that will play out across the country. We must send a clear and unmistakable message to the ruling class that we have not forgotten what they did. We remember the fear they peddled and the freedom they took. The lockdown tyrants of yesterday must never become the governors of tomorrow.

Key Takeaways

  • The architects of COVID tyranny are now shamelessly asking for more political power.
  • Ohio candidate Amy Acton’s past conduct reveals contempt for American traditions and simple joys.
  • Rewarding these bureaucrats with elected office validates their previous overreach and abuse of power.
  • Holding the line against ‘pandemic amnesty’ is crucial for preserving our fundamental freedoms.
