Senate Minority Leader Schumer Calls for Killing First Amendment Protection of Political Speech

Crushing free speech is essential to leftists’ agenda of statism, and always has been. The National Socialist German Workers Party (the Nazis), the Communists, Stalinists, et al destroy freedom by first restricting free speech. The First Amendment is first for a reason. It is our most precious and most protected freedom. And political speech is the most protected speech.

This has long been the ultimate goal of the Democrats, the leftists – silencing dissent. Totalitarianism. It’s why they are such enthusiastic supporters of the sharia where death is the punishment for dissenters (of Islam).

But they systematically use their free speech to defame, demonize and destroy good people.

I agree. For me, upholding Citizens United is the single most important issue in the country.  As a practical matter, I'm not even sure it is possible to distinguish legally between a "media" corporation, and a "non-media" corporation intended to influence public debate.

As is often the case, the link does not work :(

Of a necessity, the only speech that must be protected is offensive speech.

Worked fine for me.
