Free speech advocates are sounding the alarm about a bill in the US House of Representatives that they fear could allow Secretary of State Marco Rubio to strip US citizens of their passports based purely on political speech.
The bill, introduced by Rep. Brian Mast (R-Fla.), will come up for a hearing on Wednesday.
Um, this literally goes entirely against 1st Amendment. That’s literally all about free speech. To be able to comment or criticize politicians and politics without government retaliating. And now they want to do that exactly. These fuckers straight want a dictatorship.
They’ll label you a terrorist first

Perhaps we can at least say that your heart was in the right place depending on your personal goals. It’s even possible that your work bought additional time which does matter even though ultimately we had the current collapse.
I don’t think it’s all bad. But it’s definitely a shame that we’re at this point.
Committing war crimes for thugs?
Doesnt this clearly violate the 1st amendment?
Fun Fact: Freedom of Speech is “guaranteed” in the Constitution of PRC.
https://english.www.gov.cn/archive/lawsregulations/201911/20/content_WS5ed8856ec6d0b3f0e9499913.html
Article 35 Citizens of the People’s Republic of China shall enjoy freedom of speech, the press, assembly, association, procession and demonstration.
Guess how that’s going.
(I mean you do have freedom of speech, you can say whatever you want, just not freedom after speech)
Did you check the website? Maybe they removed it already…
These republicans, like Charlie Kirk, wrap themselves in Christianity but are the least Christ-like people on the planet. These same frauds tout their patriotism, and stoke national identity while throwing the founding document and our foundational rights, and the rule of law out the window at every opportunity they find to seize power and profit.
Most conservatives worship Satan. They’re literally devil-worshipers. If your religion leads you to hate, you are not worshiping a benevolent god, you’re worshiping the Devil. Charlie Kirk was a devil worshiper and he’s now joined his master, where he will burn in the fires of Hell for all the misery he brought down upon his innocent victims. All billionaires go to Hell. Most Republicans go to Hell. Any “Christian” that preaches hate is bound for the the Pit.
“Land of the free.”
“Terms and conditions may apply.”
Land of the fee.
Under the regime, everyone is free. It’s just that some people are more free than others.
Just like China, well done magats. You are the thing you hate
The thing they claim to hate, while secretly admiring it (or not so secretly)
“When the students poured into Tiananmen Square, the Chinese government almost blew it. Then they were vicious, they were horrible, but they put it down with strength. That shows you the power of strength. Our country is right now perceived as weak.” -donald trump
didnt even tried to hide it
Yeah this just shows you don’t have any rights. You have temporary, revocable privileges, depending on the whims of those exercising power.
Lmao turns out it was never about free speech at all. Just about control and power. Shocked
“Free speech absolutists”, everyone.
I’m sure Musk and other people that were outraged over things like Hunter’s hard drive, oops, I mean “laptop” and social media/news outlets will be all over this, right? The people that were parroting mindless talking points about Confederates being “shadow banned” on a private platform.
Right?

So they want to keep people who say things they don’t like IN the country now? I’ll never understand the Bizarro world we live in.
