The President of the United States and his minions in the White House are “looking” at limiting the First Amendment rights of Americans. Amazing as that statement sounds, that is exactly what White House Chief of Staff, Reince Priebus said on a Sunday show when asked if Trump wants to the ability to “sue” the New York Times for its reporting.
“This is something that is being looked at,” Priebus eventually said when asked, although not directly, if suppressing the First Amendment right of The New York Times is on the horizon.
Olbermann took issues with this apparent White House stance and broke down the Constitution and the First Amendment to the so-called president.
Of course Ted Cruz has no proof to back up what he said. It sounded good in his brain when he thought it up, and his base would love to hear something like this. After all it is an election year and anything to get the crazies to the polls is all good with these Republicans.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said Thursday that Democrats are making moves to repeal First Amendment rights to free speech and religious liberty.
Cruz was speaking to pastors at a Family Research Council conference when he warned that Democrats were moving to quash political speech and “muzzle” pastors and their communities, according to video of a portion of Cruz’s speech posted online by Right Wing Watch.
“I’m telling you, I’m not making this up,” he said as the audience offscreen gasped. “Sen. Chuck Schumer [D-N.Y.] has announced the Senate Democrats are scheduling a vote on a constitutional amendment to give Congress the plenary power, the unlimited authority to regulate political speech. Because elected officials have decided they don’t like it when the citizenry has the temerity to criticize what they’ve done.”
Cruz was referring to a proposed constitutional amendment from Sen. Tom Udall (D-NM) that would reverse recent Supreme Court rulings invalidating campaign finance limits, including Citizens United and McCutcheon. Schumer said the Senate would vote this year on the constitutional amendment, which seeks to capitalize on the unpopularity of the Citizens United decision in an election year.
Guess that answers the question – Will a Christian vote for a Mormon to be President of the United States?
How exactly can Mitt Romney get the Christian Conservative’s vote – a major voting block of the Republican party – when Byran Fischer has decided to take away his right to freedom of Religion?
Fisher, one of the leading voices in the conservative community and director of American Family Association is telling his audience that Mormons like Mitt Romney – are not protected under the 1st Amendment of the Constitution.
“The purpose of the first Amendment is to protect the free exercise of the Christian religion,” Fischer says in the video below. He then goes on to explain how Mormonism and Christianity are two completely different religions, and that the practice of Mormonism could eventually lead to laws being changed to allow polygamy.
Looks like Mitt Romney is done before the first vote is cast in the Republican primary next January.
