I hope it dies in committee. Even Senators aren’t that evil. Are they?

This was recently passed here in Minnesota.

I plan on violating the ever loving sh*t out of it.

"Stop stalking me. I have no idea what your little mantra means. You’ve posted to me multiple times the last few days outside the context of what we were talking about.

1. I'm not "stalking " you... Merely trying to break through an apparent "serf" mentality by pinging you with precise examples of the chains around our necks that you seem to be unaware of...

2. Every piece of information I've pointed out to you is exactly within the purview of my original remarks and reinforce my conclusions...

However, if it is disturbing your blissful grazing, rejoin your flock and I'll pray for your eventual enlightenment...

Any state or Congressional legislator who pens, sponsors or brings forth a bill that is repugnant on its face to the Constitution should within 10 days see one or more impeachment article be voted upon against him or her.

But not enough to beat the filibuster, I’m hoping. This is totalitarianism.

"That’s why the permanent political class is so apoplectic about TikTok-it wont cooperate with the NSA and CIA to spy on Americans."

You know, there's the right opportunity for Musk. Buy TikTok and take the PLA's database on TikTok users and make it a public database. Then fold into a Twitter+TikTok app and all he needs is the Venmo piece to get to his desired What's App On Steroids.

It’s only been one year since the Disinformation Governance Board luckily went up in flames. Never ones to quit, the authoritarians are trying again.

I assume this bill doesn’t cover liberals, gays, homos, the WXYZLMNOP + - x (divided by symbol), commies, socialists, dimocratic voters, illegals, Russians, Red Chinese, North Korean, Muslim radical terrorists, Cuban, Venezuela, and Obammynation peoples will not be included in this bill, leaving them free to lie, cheat, steal, kill, jail us without a lawyer or seeing their families, in reeducation camps, yada, yada.

Most of what comes from Biden’s White House is ‘Misinformation’ and ‘Hate Speech.’

December 16, 1950

East Germany enacted its “Law on Defense of Peace”, directing that “Whoever slanders other peoples and races, incites against them, and demands their boycott in order to disturb peaceful relations between them to involve the East German people in a new war, shall be punished by imprisonment or, in grave cases, by imprisonment at hard labor,” effectively criminalizing any dissent against the government that might be considered to be defamation. Similar “defense of peace” laws would soon be passed in Albania, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland and Romania. -Wiki

December 21, 1950

General Douglas MacArthur ordered the censorship of all news reports concerning the Korean War, with his office to provide official clearance before news reports, magazine articles, photographs and films, or broadcasts could be released to the world press.[109] Prohibited news included any criticism of the American and United Nations soldiers and commanders, or their handling of the war, and all correspondents were put under the jurisdiction of the United States Army, with punishments for violation of the order ranging from suspension of privileges, to trial by court martial. United Press reporter Peter Webb was one of the first to be punished, after failing to clear a report about the death of General Walker with MacArthur’s headquarters; he was detained for 18 hours before being released. The Daily Dispatch of London would comment that the only thing that could officially be said about the United Nations troops was that they were in Korea.[110]
