You may never hear this again...but thank you @RoKhanna. You are a patriot when it comes to free speech.

Twitter’s Duty to Protect Free Speech by @RoKhanna wsj.com/articles/twitt… via @WSJ

"As Silicon Valley's representative in Congress, I reached out to Twitter at the time to share these concerns. In an email meant to be private...I wrote to Twitter's general counsel that the company's actions "seemed to be a violation of First Amendment principles."

"Although Twitter is a private actor not legally bound by the First Amendment, Twitter has come to function as a modern public square. As such, Twitter has a responsibility to the public to allow the free exchange of ideas and open debate."

AMEN.

"A defense of #1A online is more important than ever. Citizens in our polarized country need to have conversations with each other based on mutual respect. Suppressing speech we don't like leaves us blind to alternative perspectives that help us see the whole, complex truth."

Whether you are a liberal, conservative, libertarian or other...if you have such beliefs when it comes to free speech...you will always have an ally in me. @RoKhanna
