Sen. Ted Cruz Objects to Democrats Attempt to Repeal Free Speech Protections
(Excerpt) Read more at youtu.be ...
The EXEMPT COMPLICIT Prince:
"Just ignore him ... like the worthless Constitution.
You will remain the GOP's most beloved King
.... who deemed to MAKE US EXEMPT from ObamaCARE."
The text of first amendment says clearly...
(”or abridging the freedom of speech” is not the government’s role to govern/rule)
What would the new first amendment say?:
Congress and states may regulate and set reasonable limits.
Should congress have the constitutional authority to ban movies?
Should congress have the constitutional authority to ban books?
Should congress have the constitutional authority to ban the NAACP?
NO!!
The link above is to Ted Cruz’s own Youtube channel.
It is a good, quality video, from YESTERDAY, and it shows Ted Cruz speaking before the United States Senate at length.
Speaking of 49 democrats, who support this amendment.
People this is a very good video, the issue is completely current, and dems have a huge segment of the Senate trying to ram this through.
Watch this video.
“I love the First Amendment”.
I guess Democrats really do not see any problem with CONGRESS being in charge of what can and cannot be said in politics, as if CONGRESS were somehow objective in the matter.

Most Democrats look upon their member of congress as a benevolent master and never question that master as long as the master continues feeding them table scraps. They’re like good little dogs.
He asks good questions. I’d add:....”and what will you do if Breitbart can’t find their emails?”
Absolutely right.
This seems to be a big issue.
Dems are attempting a partisan scam, and we are sleeping.
MODERATOR: Can this thread please be added to “breaking news” (I’m series)
As for the amendment, the rats are PO’d that the pubbies didn't filibuster debate. The rats intended to control the remaining limited floor time as they hammered the GOP for standing with billionaires who supposedly benefit from the Citizens United Scotus decision.
Now, the Republicans can connect vulnerable rats to their latest attempt to finish off what remains of the 1st Amendment. Well done!
CRUZ FOR PRESIDENT
I am so proud of my Senator!
Ted mentioned the Federalists at the 22 minute mark.
The Federalist # 57
The third charge against the House of Representatives is, that it will be taken from the class of citizens which will have least sympathy with the mass of the people, and be most likely to aim at an ambitious sacrifice of the many to the aggrandizement of the few.
Of all of the objections which have been framed against the federal Constitution, this is perhaps the most extraordinary. While the objection itself is leveled against a pretended oligarchy, the principle of it strikes at the very root of republican government.
The aim of every political constitution is, or ought to be, first to obtain for rulers men who possess most wisdom to discern, and most virtue to pursue, the common good of the society, and in the next place, to take the most effectual precautions for keeping them virtuous whilst they continue to hold their public trust. The elective mode of obtaining rulers is the characteristic policy of republican government. The means relied on in this form of government for preventing their degeneracy are numerous and various.
/Federalist #57
EPIC FAIL FOUNDERS
Let’s go back to the document that listed “the causes which impel them to the separation.”
That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Thanks for pointing out concrete evidence in the list of current grievances, Ted Cruz. Who are your colleagues?
Personal Thanks to Senator Cruz for Standing Up for the Constitution.
There are now 49 democrats walking around with Sen Cruz’s sharp sticks protruding from their eye sockets.
No democrat today can stand up to the expression of simple common sense.
Go, Cruz, GO!
I am so proud of my Senator!
Ditto! May the Lord continue to bless and keep our Sen Cruz.
Sen Cruz is the defacto leader...taking the charge away from the establishment in BOTH parties!
Both of those putz’ make we want to barf. I’m so sick of the destruction being caused by BOTH of them.
I’ll go for limiting corporate campaign contributions the moment Democrats will go along with NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS, CNN, MSNBC, WC, and institutional public school and university brainwashing constituting in-kind campaign contributions.
