Biden-Harris Administration: No Remorse for Free-Speech Abuses
A few weeks ago Vice President Kamala Harris, who has been ducking the usual media scrutiny applied to presidential candidates, said, “I’ve talked to my team. I want us to get an interview scheduled before the end of the month.” The end of the month arrives on Saturday night. If the vice president deigns to sit down for an extended discussion with a member of the news media, the lucky reporter should demand to know why the Biden-Harris administration still won’t repudiate its abuse of First Amendment rights. The government’s refusal to admit fault for pressuring social-media companies to silence dissenting voices virtually guarantees that such abuses will happen again if she’s elected president.
Americans who treasure their rights to free speech desperately need independent and courageous journalists. We’re also going to need lawmakers to codify punishments for government officials who trample on our First Amendment liberties. It would also be nice to find someone with the resources and smarts to mount a new court challenge against the Biden-Harris administration. This column nominates a man whose company was on the receiving end of outrageous government coercion and knows the territory as well as anyone.
