Democrats Push To BAN Conservative Websites

May 19, 2017| by Robert Gehl

Democratic lawmakers joined alt-left protesters who want to ban conservative news websites at a protest outside of the Federal Communications Commission, Thursday.

Rep. Barbara Lee (D. Calif.) told the crowd of protesters and antifa members to “stay woke” in fighting against FCC chairman Ajit Pai’s proposal to roll back Obama era net neutrality rules, The Washington Free Beacon reports.

Politico Pro reported that four Democrats joined the protest, which included members of the alt-left groups who have targeted Pai and held protests in his neighborhood. Politico did not mention protesters wearing masks and identifying themselves as part of the antifa movement. They held signs advocating to ban news websites such as the Drudge Report and Breitbart.

Right on schedule.

Set your watch by Democrat hysterics.

Blowback after Trump's new FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai seized Internet 1st Amendment Freedoms back from Wheeler and the Obama Cartel.

Just more proof that the Left has no love of the First Amendment, and will happily abolish it except for those who are more equal than others.

Didn't the FEC also jump into that effort some time back to regulate news?
