Minnesota Governor Tim Walz reiterated his belief that “hate speech” isn’t protected under the First Amendment at last night’s vice presidential debate.
The remarks came after Trump VP pick JD Vance argued censorship is “a much bigger threat to democracy than anything we’ve seen in the last four years,” drawing a contrast to January 6, which Democrats regularly point to as evidence of Donald Trump’s danger to democracy.
“[We do] have a threat to democracy […] It’s big technology companies silencing their fellow citizens, and it’s Kamala Harris saying that rather than debate and persuade her fellow Americans, she'd like to censor people who engage in misinformation.” Vance said.
