John Kerry accurately explained that the First Amendment does not allow for the suppression of speech.

The MAGA world has gone crazy over this, claiming he called for a call for abolishing it.

John Kerry was talking about how to deal with disinformation at a World Economic Forum event last week .

Meanwhile, I’m pretty sure literally none of the people screaming about this have discussed Trump ’s announced plans to jail people who criticize the Supreme Court (which is a legitimate First Amendment threat). I wonder why?.
