Democrats want us to be like Canada, where any speech can be called illegal if the government doesn’t like it.

Democrats don’t care. Here’s why:
1) The ends justify the means
2) It doesn’t matter if bad precedent has been set because
a) They will likely keep maintain power
b) Republicans are wusses when they are in power
3) They don’t think that far ahead. They only care about who makes them promises of gifts now

The left is willing to literally burn the country to the ground and rule over the ashes rather than give up an iota of power.

“The U.S. Constitution is clear: Political speech is protected by the First Amendment.”
Hey, give the Democrats a break. All they want is to abolish that antiquated Constitution and replace it with a “Living Constitution” that they can change whenever it suites their fancy.
To: RandFan
Instead of “the criminalization of politics,” a more appropriate description might be “the politicization of the criminal justice system and the government.”

I was also surprised to see this in 'The (s)Hill'. They've been as bad as the mockingbirds during this lawfare debacle.
I hold their motives in publishing it suspect.
My first thought is its a "hey guys, ignore all that water under the bridge, we're on your side" ploy. No mockingbirds, you're not.

If government is permitted to redefine the Bill of Rights as something subjective and not containing inalienable rights, then the government can take anyone’s rights away, including yours.What do you think all the "COVID" stuff was, morons?

This article has it backwards. The charges against President Trump aren't endangering our 1st Admenment - He is only being charged because he's in the way.
Indicted, Harassed, Charged - they should put that on a plaque. He is being prosecuted for all of us.
To: RandFan
That’s the whole point. If they can do it to Trump they can do it to anyone.
And they will.

What ever they want to call it things change and have since
time began. Just look at this country called the USA and the
changes since 1492. Evaluation is an ongoing process, jmo.

The Traitorcrats openly work to destroy the Constitution and with it the United States of America.
Voting for a Traitorcrat, like Biden, is itself an act of giving aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States.

It is endangering the Judiciary.
I remember when we mostly believed in the FBI. Now, we are ready to dissolve it. The Judiciary is risking permanent damage to its reputation and to the Rule of Law. It is becoming a joke.
