    “Party of free speech” wants to prosecute reporters for saying bad things about their dear leader.

    Is this the ‘anti-censorship’ we were supposed to get from Trump? The same guy who, during his last term, threatened a journalist with prison? And fantasized at a podium about journalists getting raped in prison for not divulging anonymous sources? And wants to restrict first amendment free speech protections?

    Huh, maybe this Trump guy is pro-censorship after all.

    Criticizing the government is a right! And I’m someone who voted Trump

    I bet Republicans wish McConnell impeached his ass in 2021.

    It’s going all night. Let’s see how committed Republicans are to the orange one.

    NYT forgot to add in the headline “why that’s bad for Biden”.

    Republicans will of course. They are fucking fascist fucks now.

    Why don’t they all just ask Trump what to do before doing anything?
    Need to eat? Ask Trump if you can.
    Want to pass legislation, ie do your job? Better ask Dad first.
    He’s a wanna be dictator and he’s going to push these weak Republicans to do his bidding and screw everyone else.

  9. We designed rules in the constitution to try to prevent that from happening. But then again, what’s a flimsy, dirty, and old piece of paper going to do to stop the willpower of man?

    Look, I’m all for protecting journalists, shit, I’m married to one… but the 4th estate both in print and on tv has done such a bang up job over these last few years, eh? Really a bastion of objectivity with a laser focus on the truth, eh? Clearly had a major impact in keeping the populace well-informed in the lead up to the election…. EH?

    We are watching the death of America and our free speech. Utterly depressing.

    Edit: I can only hope Maga that wanted this get arrested one say for saying the wrong things.

    Trump doesn’t want any additional pesky laws to get in the way of his upcoming retribution. It’s going to be crazy to watch unfold.

    Kill who? Psychopath And his Republican assholes. Forget it dude you’re asking for very rash karma

    Trump will pass from old age sooner than most people realize. He’s already living on borrowed time. Once gone, the Avatar for the MAGA movement will be missing and that revelation will cause a massive shift back to the center as the establishment will recognize without his unique brand of division gone they’ll have to capitulate to the mean or get completely wiped out.

    None of their candidates remotely match up to the sheer level of narcissism, lunacy and brashness the far right feeds on. Their interest in politics will wane rapidly and this movement will fade very rapidly after he’s gone.

  16. Just Trump telling everyone he wants the power to use the federal government to go after journalists who write mean things about him.

    Really weird that the party of “stand your ground” and “less government” just falls in line and does whatever Trump wants.

    This is the most dishonest headline I’ve seen since Trump’s victory.
