During a recent episode of his podcast, Joe Rogan suggested that if Kamala Harris and Tim Walz win the election, they will put free speech in jeopardy. Rogan was not speculating, he used examples of the two candidates’ own words.
Harris commented specifically about Twitter, which the left now hates because they no longer control it, and Walz once suggested that disinformation and supposed ‘hate speech’ are not protected by the First Amendment, which is false.
FOX News reports:
Joe Rogan predicts a Harris-Walz administration would ‘clamp down more’ on free speechPodcaster Joe Rogan warned this week that a Kamala Harris presidency would likely usher in a harsher “clamp down” on online speech.”I don’t think it turns around if Kamala Harris gets into office,” Rogan said. “I think they clamp down more. I think the same stuff that they were trying to do with Twitter, they’ll try to do with something else, with other things.”Tech tycoon Elon Musk shared a post of the clip on X saying, “Joe Rogan is absolutely right.”Rogan’s comments came during a new episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” featuring former Navy SEAL and CIA contractor Shawn Ryan. The pair were discussing censorship on social media platforms.Rogan went on to raise alarm over the “many wild things” the Harris camp is saying, including vice presidential nominee Tim Walz claiming that the First Amendment doesn’t apply to misinformation.”There’s no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech and especially around our democracy,” Walz said in late 2022 in an MSNBC interview about voting issues. He added, “Tell the truth. Where the voting places are. Who can vote. Who’s able to be there.”
