RIGHT CONVICT STRAKA CONFESSES ONCE HE WAS LEFT

FORMER LIBERAL NOW CONSERVATIVE CONVICT 

That 'defining moment' often refers to the moment when a person comes to that saving understanding of Christ. Extending the term of 'defining moment' to the political world can refer to the moment that a person comes to that rational understanding of being politically Right. Or, at least, that rational understanding of why the liberal left Democratic Party is not in line with the founding values of the United States of America - Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.

Brandon Straka's story may be similar to your own. Maybe you were at one time lined up with the Democratic Party - maybe you still are - willing to accept some problematic contradictions to your own personal world view convictions in order to identify with the larger Democratic worldview represented as the party that serves the people. 

In 2018, Brandon took to social media to launch the Walk Away campaign, an "explosive movement, uniting Americans across all demographics to leave the divisive left" (Straka, 2022, Brandon Straka). Recently, he found himself behind bars for peacefully assembling on January 06th, 2021. "The founder of the WalkAway Campaign, was at the Capitol building on January 6, but neither took part in nor saw any of the violence perpetrated that day. Still, three weeks later, he was arrested and detained in jail for two days" (Levin, The Mark Levin Show - Brandon Straka's January 6th Story Revealed, 2022)
