I finally watched the VP debate.

So, either Tim Walz doesn't understand the First Amendment, or he's hostile toward it. Neither option is good.

He even pulled the, "You can't shout fire in a crowded theater." thing? That was never a litmus test for free speech. That was something that Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote in a decision to send a socialist to prison for passing out leaflets urging men to dodge the draft, under The Sedition Act. That's a decision that was overturned over half a century ago.

The Framers made the First and Second Amendments first and second for a reason -- they're the foundational values of this fucking nation.

Both Harris and Walz have both gone out of their ways to be hostile to those values.

This might be the worst presidential ticket since Woodrow Wilson.
