Charge: FEC Dems would ban Drudge, NYT, free media on election eve
Washington Examiner ^ | 4/18/16 | Paul Bedard

Posted on 04/19/2016 5:08:58 AM PDT by detective

The war between Republicans and Democrats on the politically splintered Federal Election Commission flared late Monday when a Republican commissioner and former chairman charged that the panel's Democrats want to regulate the press and end free election media.

The moves by Democrats "signal an active regulatory effort within the agency, caution press organizations to look over their shoulders, and chill the free exercise of press activity," said Republican Lee E. Goodman in a statement on a recent FEC split vote.

Democrats at the FEC want to ban free speech in America. First, right before elections. Later, all the time.

..Democrats at the FEC want to ban free speech in America...

One of the first rules of Democrat liberals is to silence the opposition.
When that does not work, the next step is to destroy them by using every available means.

Funny how the FEC does not seem to want to close down the MSM types who ‘call’ the elections before the polls are even closed...

Correction-—Free Speech was banned 60 years ago——we have *controlled* speech and controlled “worldview” (for our children). Controlled and bought and owned by a few globalists who are forcing their vile worldview on OUR children (Common Core)——all ideas molded through a Marxist/Freudian “Lens” where Slavery is Freedom and Vice is Virtue to collapse Western Civilization.

Just as Alan Bloom explained in his book “The Closing of the American Mind” in the 80s.....but few read it or could understand it by the time he wrote it-—the college students were so brainwashed and virtueless (dumb). Wisdom is being able to discern between Good and Evil. These college kids were DUMB and had minds full of mush-—nothing of substance (intentionally by the “system” of control of textbooks to erase all the Wisdom of the Ages and Jesus Christ (USA Constitution of Free Will and Individual Natural Rights from God). The State wants to be god if you haven’t noticed and they want to make sodomy “Good” (using people as commodities—esp. in evil, irrational, filthy ways so that people are conditioned to the culling and killing that these totalitarian states will always bring about)..

Pssssst: There IS no FREEDOM if we do not have a Free Press......NONE.

Oh, we have some fringe freedom for now, but the masses only get “Yahoo” news (major perversion/evil worldview embedded into children) and the sodomite controlled “news” of MSM, so that Vice becomes Virtue and Western Civ will totally collapse and Slavery, pederasty, homosexuality, child-killing (sacrifice) and polygamy (chaos) is “normal” like it was in all the serf/tribal cultures for thousands of years. it took Christianity over a 1000 years to FLIP worldview and rid people of the idea that homosexuality/pederasty and child-sacrifice and polygamy and slavery is “Evil” but now children are learning that human beings are a commodity and Vice is Virtue.

With TV/Movies/Indoctrination centers (skools) it only takes less than a generation. As Lenin stated, he only needed your child for FOUR years to create thy type of “man” (state) he wanted.

We didn’t have Freedom of Speech in the 70s anymore than today—you just didn’t “know” every idea you had was being controlled by the sick, psychopathic super-elites who took over our money supply in 1913 and bought all the major APs right afterwards. The satanic, sodomite elites (look at the Elton “scandal” being “erased”-—exactly like the Franklin Cover-Up and the Jimmy Savile dancing around with the little boys and dead bodies for 30 years. Oh-—but “who cares”——the media controls the emotions of the masses-—don’t you know. As Bradbury stated-—that is ALL they are about-—control YOUR emotions and YOUR belief system and to addict you to wasting your precious time-—to keep you from Truth.

You are NOT getting the Truth fed to you on your tube/cable—You have to DIG and SEEK the Truth and original documents (like the 28 pages *hidden* about 9-11)——and the Truth will set you Free. And without Virtue formation in the children, there can be no civil, free society in the future-—NONE-—and that is what the Cultural Marxist (sodomites) knew and why they took over “education” and removed Classical Christian Education in the 30s..

If the next SCOTUS appointee agrees with them it will become law of the land.

These are the same a$$hats who would use federal government prosecution to persecute the heretics who disagree with their out and out power and wealth grab that is their “climate change” religion.

Just the latest version of the intimidating and coercion strategies of political correctness.

Well of course -- first, they'll be attacked with lawfare for "climate denial". Next, there won't be a second step, because heads will literally roll until the Demagogic Party is no longer causing problems. Thanks detective.

I long for the days of a press that stood up to Establishments... rather than one that stood in line for their chance to "kiss the butt"...

Thank God for Drudge... his magic was telling 'citizen truth' - - not 'Establishment truth'...
