Please explain I don't see any attacks on Free speech at least not in the United States I don't see any attacks on freedom of the press or freedom of expression.

I see more freedom of speech and people who have been stifling it not allowed to do so I've seen where the press has lied and are now being called out on it until to prove what they're saying freedom of expression well that stops when someone tries to distract other people's property.

@dale74 the banning of books is an attack on free speech. Everyday the press is under attack Trump has made them an enemy of the people. Didn't Marjorie Taylor Green shut down a journalist just the other day and told her go back to your country. When the woman was just trying to do her job. In Florida, they tried passing a bill where bloggers would would be forced to register with the state if they write posts criticizing public officials. Smh how is that not freedom of Press. Outlawing drag shows across the board is definitely an attack on freedom of expression.

@AngelUnforgiven removing sexually explicit books from public libraries is not banning the book you can still order the book and purchase it. Outlawing drag shows in public is for the public welfare of decency they have not outlawed drag shows in private venues such as adult only clubs where they should be held to begin with. I need a better example of the journalist that was told to go back to her own country you don't actually give a specific example or a link to the video where it happened. Criticizing public officials such as when Hillary Clinton was criticized with memes the person who created the memes was put in prison I wonder. People who exercised free speech at the Capitol who have been proved to not have committed any crimes of violence we're also locked up in prison or a jail for close to 3 years without even having their case heard. I think you have selective choosing. The stuff you've identified is not verifiable tell me one book you cannot buy on your own that has literally been banned by the country. And you're telling me you can't have drag shows in San Francisco. Well hey technically prostitution is illegal everywhere except for one city and Nevada. Doesn't that violate people's rights. It is true the Federal government is not sponsoring drag shows anymore witch they should have never done.
