The Freedom to Silence You — Dr. Mary Anne Franks on Trump’s War on Dissent
1Description
Sam recaps some of the developments from the past week including the escalating attacks on cities (such as the Black Hawk helicopter raid on an apartment building in South Shore Chicago), the Trump/Hegseth meeting to direct generals to get ready to wage war crimes and train troops against the US population, the government shutdown and more.
Then, she speaks with Dr. Mary Anne Franks, George Washington University professor and author of Fearless Speech: Breaking Free from the First Amendment, about what Trump and MAGA mean by "free speech" as they directly censor critics. Find out more about her work here.
