I have one question for voters:

Can the federal government do anything that the Constitution doesn't forbid,

or can it do nothing except what the Constitution specifically allows?

Get it wrong, can't vote. That would get rid of 90% of the Democrat voters.

Does Congress have the legal power to remove the freedom of speech? Yes.
That's the correct answer altough I suspect you believe the answer is "No". Even though our revered Constitution says "Congress shall make NO law ... abridging the freedom of speech or of the press ..."

For reference see SCOTUS ruling on McStain's Campaign Finance Reform Act. I am depressed. What part of "no law" do they not understand? :-(
