Joe Rogan shared an ominous prediction about the state of free speech if Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz win the November election, arguing the Democratic ticket poses a grave threat to the First Amendment.
Rogan offered his thoughts on the troubling trend of censorship in the US in a conversation with former Navy Seal, ex-CIA contractor and podcaster Shawn Ryan in an episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” released Thursday. “I don’t think it turns around if Kamala Harris gets into office,” Rogan said of the censorship trend, “I think they clamp down more.”
“I think the same stuff they were trying to do with Twitter they’ll try to do with other things,” Rogan added, “They’ve already openly discussed it. She’s openly discussed the same rules have to apply to Facebook have to apply to Twitter. And that Elon Musk could lose his privileges.”

Well we should hope she wins so we can get this over with once and for all.
Then he shouldn’t have said he supports a 3rd party candidate.
If you vote for Kamala, you’re working for the clampdown.
And now you want someone to ride to your rescue.
Count me out.
The Jamaican Coconut and her white dude, Tiny Timmy Tampon are the greatest threat to American freedom and liberty. Wake up America! You don’t want these two azhos.
Nothing gets by him. Too bad the nickname “Slow Joe” is already taken.
That candidate isn’t even running any more. Has he update his endorsement?
The green party isn’t running? I think that’s who he supported
No, he endorsed RFK Jr.
I can scarcely sleep of night when Joe Rogan has fears.
That’s the hill to die on, friends. The First Amendment is the sine qua non of liberty, and when the government goes against those rights — given to us by God, not “allowed” by the government — then the deal is off.
I can’t see any possible doubt that freedom of speech, including on the radio, will be dead within a short time if the Dems take over.
That may be true, but he does have a delayed grasp of the obvious. It has been clear for decades, perhaps siknce Rogan was in diapers, that the American Left prefers "equal airtime for opposing views".
As applied that means conservative-right wing radio talk shows will not be allowed a greater amount of airtime than is offered up the liberal-Left - and NPR will not be counted in that mix.
Rogan may have just learned about that.

Amen!
I don’t care where you stand on the other issues, but if you support the First and Second Amendments, you’re ok with me, regardless of where we may disagree.
Thanks. Yes I was confused on that.
As the saying goes, the Second protects the First.
