Congress, state legislatures, and state and federal administrative

officers concerning what is best for the country.

Feb 28, 1933 German President von Hindenburg abolishes free expression of opinion, including free press and free speech
under the “Law for Protection of People and the State.”

Now…..where have you seen the same thing, censorship…..opinion, and free speech abolished recently….and by which side?

The Democrats….that’s the Left.
