Rep. @Jim_Jordan then pulls out an email from the White House to Twitter asking them to censor a tweet from @RobertKennedyJr.

Censorship Industrial Complex- the multiple entries the government pays to engage in censoring information. American taxpayers are unwittingly financing the growth and power of a censorship-industrial complex run by America’s scientific and technological elite used to weaponiza information

Our media should be mocking the hell out of this guy, along with Kamala Harris and the others. Oh, and let’s not forget the liars who’ve been outed from their January 6 Bull Shyte.

The real event here was the introduction of the nebulous, murky idea of “lawful speech”. So far as I know only perjury, libel, slander and incitement might be considered legally actionable.

Now the left wants a category of speech that is permitted, all else would bet prohibited .

Goldman’s point in reply was that a request to censor is not a directive. Twitter is/was sympathetic to said request. No law against that, and no sentient being should trust either party.

The Left’s Core Strategy #1: Lie forcefully knowing the media and the appropriate establishment will support you.

The Left’s Core Strategy #2: “Pick the target and polarize it" via Rules for Radicals.

The Left’s Core Strategy #3: Scream accusations of racism* (or racist* attacks) at anything you don't like or which slows your agenda. *Sexism, "homophobia", etc. are also opportunities.

The Left’s Core Strategy #4: Attack your opposition by projecting your guilt onto them.

The Left’s Core Strategy #5: Declare that your destructive actions are creating a positive outcome.

The Left’s Core Strategy #6: Attack opposition with shallow insults in an effort to negatively influence the public's view of their character. Think drive-by shooter.

The Left’s Core Strategy #7: When all else fails, censor speech and/or deploy violence.

Repeat

It is easy to buy a seat when there are so many useful idiot voters.

So, what he’s saying is that any speech that the government doesn’t like is illegal, and therefore it is OK to censor it.

Right?

It’s easy to buy a seat when you have $235 million.

Schumer and McConnell threatened Fox News over Carlson’s J6 exposè and Tucker has been mute since. Is FN being “sympathetic” to the government request?

One statement by Goldman tells the whole story of his political life.
