Two years ago, Trump he had recently lost the election that had anointed Joe Biden president of the United States. But even then he was convinced that he could return to the leadership of the USA. And so, in a video that has recently been relaunched by both Elon Musk (his advisor) e Robert F. Kennedy Jr (new Minister of Health), promised to target government agencies, universities and technology companies which in recent years have had their fair share of restrictions on freedom of expression. “The censorship cartel must be dismantled and destroyed,” said The Donald. “When I am president, all this rotten information control system will be eradicated from the system at large. There will be nothing left.” The question is: will he carry out his plan?
Here is the complete translation of Donald Trump’s speech on free speech:
“If we don’t have FREEDOM OF SPEECH, then we don’t have a FREE COUNTRY. It’s simple. If this fundamental right is allowed to perish, then the rest of our rights and freedoms will fall like dominoes one after another. They will fall.
That’s why today I announce my plan to destroy the left-wing censorship regime and reclaim the right to free speech for all Americans. And reclaim is a very important word in this case because they took it away from us.
In recent weeks, bombshell news reports have confirmed that a sinister group of Deep State bureaucrats, Silicon Valley tyrants, left-wing activists, and the depraved corporate media have conspired to manipulate and silence the American people. They have collaborated to suppress vital information on everything from elections to public health.
The censorship cartel must be dismantled and destroyed, and it must happen immediately. And here’s my plan:
FIRSTwithin hours of taking office, I will sign an executive order prohibiting any federal department or agency from colluding with any organization, company, or person, to censor, restrict, categorize, or impede the free expression of American citizens. Then I will prohibit federal funds from being used to label free expression “mis-” or “dis-information.” And I will begin the process of identifying and firing every federal bureaucrat who has engaged in internal censorship, directly or indirectly, whether it’s the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Health and Human Services, the FBI, the DOJ, it doesn’t matter. who they are.
SECONDI will order the Department of Justice to investigate all parties involved in the new online censorship regime, which is absolutely destructive and appalling, and to aggressively prosecute all identified crimes. These include possible violations of federal civil rights law, campaign finance laws, federal election law, securities laws, anti-trust laws, the Hatch Act, and a number of other potential criminal offenses, civil, regulatory and constitutional. To aid in these efforts, I urge House Republicans to immediately send preservation letters, and we must do so now, to the Biden administration, the Biden campaign, and every Silicon Valley tech giant, ordering them not to destroy evidence of censorship.
THIRDupon my inauguration as president, I will ask Congress to send to my desk a bill that would revise Section 230 to get large online platforms out of the censorship business. From now on, digital platforms should qualify for immunity protection under Section 230 only if they meet high standards of neutrality, transparency, fairness and non-discrimination. We should require these platforms to INCREASE their efforts to remove UNLAWFUL content, such as child exploitation and the promotion of terrorism, by dramatically reducing their power to arbitrarily restrict lawful speech.
FOURTHwe must dismantle the entire toxic censorship industry that has arisen under the false guise of fighting so-called “misinformation” and “dis-information”. The federal government should immediately stop funding all non-profit and academic programs that support this authoritarian project. If a US university is found to have engaged in censorship or election interference activities in the past, such as flagging social media content for removal (and blacklisting), those universities should lose federal funding for research and support for federal student loans for a period of five years, and perhaps longer. We should also enact new laws that establish clear criminal penalties for federal bureaucrats who collaborate with private entities to circumvent the Constitution and deprive Americans of their First, Fourth, and Fifth Amendment rights. In other words, deprive them of their vote. And once you lose that election and once you lose the borders like we did, you no longer have a country. Furthermore, to address the problems of large platforms infiltrated by legions of former Deep Staters and intelligence officials, there should be a 7-year cool-down period before any FBI, CIA, NSA, DNI, DHS, or DOD employee is allowed to take a job at a company that has large amounts of US user data.
FIFTHthe time has finally come for Congress to pass a Digital Bill of Rights. This should include a right to digital due process, in other words, government officials should need a COURT ORDER to remove online content, not send requests for information like the ones the FBI was sending to Twitter.
Furthermore, when users of large online platforms have their content or accounts removed, restricted, banned or otherwise restricted, regardless of the name they use, they should have the right to be informed that this is happening, the right to a specific explanation of why and the right to a timely appeal. Furthermore, all users over the age of 18 should have the right to completely opt out of content moderation and curation and to receive an unmanipulated flow of information if they so wish.
The fight for free speech is a matter of life and death for America and for the survival of Western civilization itself. When I am President, this entire rotten system of censorship and information control will be stripped away from the system at large. There will be nothing left.
By restoring free speech, we will begin to reclaim our democracy and save our nation. Thank you, and God bless America.
