Breitbart ^ | 15 Dec 2022 | NICK GILBERTSON

Former President Donald J. Trump unveiled a free-speech policy platform on Thursday to “shatter the left-wing censorship regime and reclaim the right to free speech for all Americans.”

The 45th president shared a video to his Truth Social account where he details a number of policy steps he would enact, if elected president, to prohibit censorship by government agencies and big tech companies.

These plans include revising Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, establishing a cooling-off period requiring former employees of the FBI, CIA, and other government agencies to wait seven years before joining tech companies that have “vast quantities of U.S. user data,” and establishing a “digital bill of rights,” among several other actions.

Trump laid out five steps he plans to take to secure free speech:

First, within hours of my inauguration, I will sign an executive order banning any federal department or agency from colluding with any organization, business, or person to censor, limit, categorize, or impede the lawful speech of American citizens. I will then ban federal money from being used to label domestic speech as “mis-” or “disinformation.” And I will begin the process of identifying and firing every federal bureaucrat who has engaged in domestic censorship, directly or indirectly, whether they are the Department of Homeland security, the Department of Health and Human Services, the FBI, the DOJ — no matter who they are.

Second, I will order the Department of Justice to investigate all parties involved in the new online censorship regime, which is absolutely destructive and terrible, and to aggressively prosecute any and all crimes identified. These include possible violations of federal civil rights law, campaign finance laws, federal election law, securities law and anti-trust laws, the Hatch Act and a

“When I’m president, this whole rotten system of censorship and information control will be ripped out of the system at large,” he added. “There won’t be anything left.”

Build the wall at the airports as well. We don’t need guest workers in the position of determining what is censored.

Hey, I got an idea!

How about they amend the Constitution to put something like this in it! I don’t know why no one ever thought of this before!

Or the outage of the day.

Had Trump made this his BIG ANNOUNCEMENT instead of his NFT crackpot scheme, it would have boosted his campaign as serious.

Instead, this was overshadowed.

Great to see Trump hitting the issues rather than personally attacking Republicans of worth — like DeSantis, Youngkin, and Cruz.

Too late. He should have realized he was surrounded by traitors while in office and tried to do something about it. His handling of the COVID-19 attack was pathetic. He maybe is the best we have heft to save us, but I don’t think he’s up to it. It’s too much about him.

Another "We've got him now" post in the vein of "It's too late!, he's toast now" because of some perceived imperfect action on his part in the past.
