Here’s a riddle. What’s harder to get rid of in DC: the rats, the carjackers, or bad ideas?
While all have proven pervasive in the nation’s Capitol, I’d argue it’s the latter that seems simply impossible to be rid of. In yet another installment, Congress is again pushing something known as the EARN IT Act—a piece of legislation that essentially says business owners should have to earn their right to free speech. In fact, the bill just passed through the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday morning.
Per usual, supporters warn the bill is needed to sAvE tHe ChIlDrEn—which should be as clear of a red flag that a bill is a Trojan horse as there ever was. What it really does is go after Section 230—which is increasingly the pet target of big government, anti-civil liberties types on both the Right and the Left.
