It’s yet another power grab. So, what’s all the commotion about, and how is the uniparty grabbing power this time? Well, it’s all thanks to the violent pro-Palestinian uprisings happening nationwide. This whole ordeal is starting to look and feel like “George Floyd Part 2,” which isn’t exactly shocking. It’s the same old “rioters,” just recycled and dressed up in new outfits. It seems like we’re just watching a reboot with a slightly different script.

Americans are watching this chaos unfold, puzzled over why it’s allowed to continue. The crux of the matter often circles back to the First Amendment. It doesn’t matter if you dislike what someone is saying. You can ignore them or engage in debate, but silencing them infringes on their First Amendment rights. However, when speech turns to violence or threats, that’s a different story—such actions aren’t protected and should be swiftly punished. But just calling Jewish folks—or any group—unflattering names, while distasteful and offensive to some, isn’t illegal. After all, every group faces name-calling and negative targeting to some degree.

When we start legislating ideas and thoughts, we venture into very dangerous territory. Making it illegal to draw comparisons between Israeli policies and Nazi actions, label Israel as racist, or accuse an American of prioritizing loyalty to Israel over the United States is not just a terrible injustice—it’s a blatant infringement on everyone’s First Amendment rights. Yet, that’s precisely what Congress, including some GOP traitors, is pushing through. And, true to form, the GOP is at the forefront of this new anti-First Amendment bill, all under the guise of “doing the right thing” and shielding society from unpleasant behavior.

Just look what GOP Senator Tim Scott posted recently on X:

No, Tim, you’re wrong. It’s not what you say, but how you say it, that often crosses the line. You can’t go around threatening folks, obstructing public spaces, or causing harm to others. Those actions are illegal. However, if you don’t do that and keep your nose clean, in America, you’re free to voice even the most distasteful opinions. After all, that’s what free speech is all about. However, let’s be clear about what this new bill really entails. The Antisemitism Awareness Act of 2023 is a stark infringement on the freedoms we cherish as a nation. But as Republican Tim Scott has just shown us, it’s all dressed up as a power grab, cloaked in the guise of safety, security, and kindness—qualities that all decent folks value and desire. It’s a slick maneuver by the government to package an undercover power grab for the American people. Think of it as the “Patriot Act” on steroids.

Thankfully, many are pushing back, including Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Marjorie Taylor Greene:

Antisemitism is wrong, but I will not be voting for the Antisemitism Awareness Act of 2023 (H.R. 6090) today that could convict Christians of antisemitism for believing the Gospel that says Jesus was handed over to Herod to be crucified by the Jews.

Read the bill text and contemporary examples of antisemitism like #9.

Here’s a closeup of the images MTG shared:

This might just be some of the most dangerous legislation ever passed. And if it doesn’t seem like a big deal to you now, just wait until it’s turned against you or someone you love. That’s when the real impact will hit home. Here are more highlights of this draconian bill:

MIA:

This is the official definition of antisemitism that Congress will vote to codify into law today, and then use it to prosecute Americans for “hate speech.” It’s extensive on purpose.

I’ve highlighted two sections that should scare every American and one that will just make you laugh:

• Accusing Jewish citizens of being more loyal to Israel than their own nation: What if they truly are, but they’re here committing espionage or planning an act of terrorism on Israel’s behalf? The very first line of this definition puts our national security at risk. Also, what about dual citizens in Congress? That shouldn’t even be permitted in the first place, but now we won’t be able to say that.

• Claims of Jews killing Jesus or blood libel: This will essentially outlaw verses in the Bible. Also, people have been referring to anything and everything as blood libel lately, and since that’s not clearly defined here — it could mean anything and everything.

• Making claims about Jews controlling the government: I just find that one hilarious after reading through legislation that will make it illegal to criticize them.

The entire thing is absurd and unconstitutional, but I just wanted to make clear how dangerous this legislation is. Far more dangerous than any “hate speech” that Congress is seeking to criminalize.

Conservative pundit and popular podcaster Charlie Kirk is also pushing back hard on this unjust, immoral, and unconstitutional bill:

In response to campus anti-Israel protests, the House is rushing to to vote on a new bill, HR 6090. This new bill would officially define “Antisemitism” so the federal government can sue, prosecute, or sanction more people, businesses, and universities for supposed violations of civil rights law.

I abhor antisemitism, but this bill is flagrantly unconstitutional and an appalling attack on the First Amendment.

This bill would make it illegal to compare Israeli policies to Nazi policies. It would make it illegal to describe Israel as racist. It would make it illegal to accuse an American citizen of being more loyal to Israel than to the United States.

All of those behaviors might be stupid or repugnant, but they are indisputably protected by the First Amendment. Yet now, Congressional Republicans are rushing to gut the First Amendment in order to pass a Europe-style ban on supposed “hate speech.”

Rioters should be arrested. Unhinged Israel-hating students who take over buildings and refuse to leave should be expelled.

But I stand with @RepThomasMassie: This bill is an affront to the Constitution and must not pass.

An outrageously anti-free speech bill like this would have no chance of passing without the violent, scary riots and threatening rhetoric that’s being spewed by these organized pro-Hamas groups. Sure, these groups might be labeled as “far left,” but once you ditch the idea that we’re living in a genuine two-party system and start seeing the bigger picture of a massive uni-party—where everyone’s playing for the same team with the ultimate goal of amassing more power and control—it all starts to click. And let’s be clear: this isn’t some “tinfoil hat” theory; it’s the sad reality of today’s United States of America.

Blogger and podcaster Matt Walsh said it best:

You need to understand how crazy this antisemitism bill is that just passed the House with wide bipartisan approval. The law requires the Department of Education to adopt the definition of antisemitism provided by something called the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance.

The legislation itself never says what the definition is. All it says is that the definition is whatever this other group says it is. Which is batshit bonkers already because it grants the force of law to whatever the IHRA happens to decree on the subject. But it gets worse.

The bill also specifies that the “examples” of antisemitism that IHRA subjectively came up with will be included in the legal definition. What happens when IHRA adds new examples?  Well I guess the legal definition changes. Why is some organization being given this kind of legal power? That is never explained by anyone involved in writing this bill.

What are the examples of antisemitism? Some of them are non-controversial. They say that calling for the death of Jews is antisemitic. Obviously it is.

But the IHRA also says that a very wide swath of criticism directed at the Israeli government are antisemitic too. In fact any criticism of Israeli policy that the IHRA considers a “double standard” will now legally be classified as antisemitic hate speech.

You also aren’t allowed to accuse Israel of genocide or racism. Many people would say such accusations are false. But even if you find them to be false, should any criticism of a foreign government ever be legally prohibited by our government under any circumstance

Obviously not.

The cherry on top is that none of this has anything to do with what’s happening on college campuses right now. The chaos could be easily squashed simply by enforcing existing laws against trespassing, burglary, vandalism, etc.

Clearly, the real reason these outrageous, violent, and chaotic riots are allowed to continue is so that the American people become horrified and scared enough to give up more of their rights. It’s a rerun of what we saw after 9/11 and during the COVID crisis. There’s a clear pattern here, plain as day, if you’re willing to really look and tune out the incessant noise and propaganda coming from both sides of the aisle.

So, as you mull over all of this, ask yourself: Where does it end? What’s next? Making “anti-Muslim” rhetoric illegal? We all know they won’t make “anti-Christian” speech illegal. But really, where does this all stop? How far are our uni-party leaders, including those in the GOP, willing to go to muzzle us and dictate what we can say and how we say it? The answer is pretty straightforward: They’ll go as far as we allow them to.
