Donald Trump was asked by a reporter about his opinion on AG Pam Bondi suggesting that his administration may introduce some exceptions to freedom of speech. The president then went on to suggest that he might even start with the reporter asking him the question.
All kinds of speech are protected under the First Amendment, but there are a few caveats that include incitement of harm. Recently, however, Pam Bondi joined a Fox News show where she told Maria Bartiromo that the Trump administration is looking into criminalizing hate speech in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s killing. In the immediate aftermath, there were sections of the internet celebrating Kirk’s death or at the very least downplaying it. Most employers at the moment took it upon themselves to punish the people engaging in this unfortunate online trend.
