Barack Obama’s sumptuous Hawaiian waterfront mansion is squared away, and he is done reminding Joe Biden that he is far more popular than the present hapless pseudo-president, so what’s a wealthy alleged elder statesman with time on his hands to do? Obama could have taken up surfing or beekeeping or started appearing in movies playing the president, but instead, he appears to have decided to go to war against the freedom of speech. Two weeks ago, he called for “regulatory measures” to rein in online “disinformation,” and on Thursday he amplified that call, claiming that the First Amendment simply doesn’t apply to the social media giants

What happens when this legal “genius” says something without a teleprompter.

"Fundamentally change America". THAT was his diatribe. Who of us thought that he meant only he and the dems have rights and repubs have NO rights and will be jailed for even THINKING that we do. Ask the jan 6 political prisoners. Murderers go free today but for placing a foot inside the People's House (trespass) you get jailed for over a year. (after being waved in by the capital police) Not allowed to see a judge, no lawyer, no access to info regarding your case and only a Muslim newspaper for info about the outside world. Speedy trial-not for repubs or Trump supporters.

One of the things free speech does is make politicians uneasy. That's the way is supposed to be.

This admission is an indicator of just how confident these Marxists/fascists/communists or whatever they are calling themselves are. American socialists? That is an oxymoron. Their ideology is in no way American. It is the antithesis of American history and thought.
What Obama and his cabal want is state control. They want the power to take control of every aspect of our lives and free speech is a threat to them. They must crush any opposing thought. That our legal scholars and law professors are not up in arms at the mere mention of the loss of free speech in any aspect of our lives is very telling.
Obama and his cronies are very confident that they sit in the catbird seat and no one is going to dislodge them. When you have successfully committed a coup d’etat you are going to be confident and why not? He does not fear Republicans and certainly believes that he and his fellow travelers can control the will of the people. Success gives one great confidence. No President would ever come out against free speech. Yet, here the boy king is throwing it out there with confidence. While he should be met with a massive backlash, he won’t which is why he believes they are winning.
While democrats may whine about losing seats, I believe they are confident they can pull off a win again. Who’s going to stop them? Will another steal provoke a civil war? I doubt it. I hate to say it but most Americans would not take up arms. We may grouse and complain, but democrats have made it abundantly clear that they will go to any end to make sure they can control us. They would use force, false imprisonment, and isolation. They would use food shortages. They would use denial of medical care. They would use denial of education of our children. They would use denial of use of public transport, restaurants, and retail stores. They would use lockdowns. Democrats, the deep state, the judiciary, the military, and the media are all in on this betrayal. If we cannot loosen the death grip the leftist globalists have on our government in the coming election, we are toast. When men like Obama attain ultimate power, they will use every means to hold onto it. The boy king has big aspirations and they go well beyond being a former President.

First Amendment
1st 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".
Pretty clear to anyone not a democrat.
Right behind that is the 2nd amendment, "The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed". This one clearly was to maintain the 1st, and that is why it is constantly under attack by the democrats.

Imagine the outrage if Ronald Reagan had said the First Amendment doesn't apply to town halls or private phone conversations.

As Biden's poll numbers drop Obama and Hillary are becoming more and more mouthy.
IMO America should jail the both of them.

Obama was the enabler our on-going culture war where race is more important than credentials, something for nothing is more important than achievement, platitudes are important than facts, showmanship is more important than reality and one voice is more important than every other voice.
Obviously, there are true believers, but I think as time passes, it becomes clear to more and more people that Obama wasn't really a president, but a clever vaudeville performer. Get all excited with anticipation, go enjoy the show, feel entertained, then later get the credit card bill for overpriced, hyped-up tickets and you can't even remember a single joke or song, but you've got the tee shirt.

Comrade Obama would defend the "Social Media Giants" because they are the propaganda tool for the American Democrat / Communist Party chaired by Comrade Obama

The wise one speaks. When a media company dominates (monopolizes), then censors one side, it becomes like government. Therefore it’s censorship just like government.

Needless to say, the purple-lipped blunder is WRONG!! The first amendment to the Constitution of the United States makes no exceptions as to freedom of speech. What an absolute MORON!!
