2019: Kamala Harris Promised to Weaponize DOJ Against Social Media to Fight Misinformation
“We will hold social media platforms accountable for the hate, infiltrating their platforms because they have a responsibility to help fight against this threat to our democracy.”
Oh, look. Kamala Harris vowed to weaponize the DOJ and law enforcement against social media platforms that allowed “misinformation” on their platforms.
It’s not shocking that Mark Zuckerberg admitted the FBI and Joe Biden’s administration pressured Facebook to suppress or eliminate supposed misinformation.
HARRIS: “And we’ll put the Department of Justice of the United States back in the business of justice. We will double the civil rights division and direct law enforcement to counter this extremism. We will hold social media platforms accountable for the hate, infiltrating their platforms because they have a responsibility to help fight against this threat to our democracy. And if you profit off of hate, if you act as a megaphone for misinformation or cyber warfare, if you don’t police your platforms, we are going to hold you accountable as a community.”
Elon Musk, RFK Jr., and Tulsi Gabbard are raising concerns of free speech under Kamala Harris.

Harris loves censorship.
Flashback: Five times Kamala Harris pushed to censor Donald Trump and it workedhttps://t.co/pvZOWsltqQ

That’s not very ‘liberal’.
and the scotus recently backed them up on their pressuring the social media companies
we are in trouble!!!
I can feel the government mandated Joy.
The beatings will continue until morale improves.
Harris clearly does not understand what freedom of speech means
Everybody better listen up! A Harris-Walz administration will be a perfect nightmare for free speech. Leave no doubt. Free speech is on the ballot. Not democracy.
Free speech is on the ballot.
So, can the DOJ start investigating the endless ads saying that Project 2025 is Trump’s plan ?
They can. But you and I know they won’t.
freedom of speech and then freedom of thought! Book burnings soon!
Tulsi Gabbard just laid out a succinct case that all of government is being weaponized against its opponents. https://x.com/mtgrepp/status/1831414258451775980?s=12&t=eyCkMeu6-gIQ9aIL6FfS0g
So the entirety of the parasite class feels uppity enough to attack the host.
We truly are in the end times.
On that note — an incredibly long (but never boring) Tucker Carlson interview with Mike Benz exposes “The Deep State’s Step by Step Plan to End Free Speech.”
The section on how the Deep State is redefining “democracy” to disempower YOU and instead empower “permanent democratic institutions” (e.g., SPLC) is a mind blower.
Please don’t use Tucker Carlson as a reliable source. Carlson now thinks that Churchill was the villain of World War II, not Adolph Hitler. He blames the Jews for everything. Not quite as bad as Mein Kampf, but close. He supports Putin. He supports Candace Owens. He is just as bad a Drudge. Good riddance to Tucker Carlson.

Tucker now promotes Holocaust Denial, but you still need him?
You can’t get someone who says they oppose censorship on social media besides Tucker Carlson? It is just you and Tucker is it?
If so why the hell do you comment on articles on this site?
It is property of a Jewish Professor you idiot.
At the two anti-Semites who down voted fine, you love anti-Semitism as long as it comes from the right.
I think Winston Churchill isn’t just one of the greatest English Heroes of all time but one of the greatest heroes of all time anywhere.
You could decide if you still will worship Tucker as he takes you goose stepping, you both disgust me.
But I’ve been told that it’s trump who is an existential danger to the constitution and our freedoms.
Remember, the Left thinks the Constitution is a threat to “our democracy”.
It amounts to shutting down the other guy’s news silo, not restricting his speech. The left never sees what the right says anyhow, censored or not.
The right is more curious as the left’s news silo is mostly laughable entertainment for them. Sort of like watching falling on intellectual banana peels.
If Democrats were fighting misinformation they would be fighting themselves.
I’m so old, I remember when liberals used to say (e.g. regarding “offensive” content in media/entertainment) “If you don’t like it, you don’t watch it.”
Good times. Now it’s “I don’t like it, so you can’t watch it.”
“misinformation” is basically the new leftist programming of “we hate it when our lies are exposed”.
The base needs Hoovers up all the lies and takes the brunt of the damage without enough intelligence to see who is really stealing their lunch money.
One of two things will happen
1. Next opportunity we update the law to make Marsh v Alabama apply to internet, and we update regulations to see social media beyond a certain size as utilities.
2. The Democrats will successfully use force to make social media do their bidding.
