Goodness, but isn’t the idea of having a: “...political speech regulator”

The exact opposite of the first amendment:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

The Constitution also says the right to bear arms “shall not be abridged,” and that language is ignored all the time.

The admonitions “abridging” various rights enshrined in the Constitution have already been rendered moot. There’s absolutely no reason to believe that freedom of speech will be immune.
