Summary

On this episode of "The Federalist Radio Hour," Andrew Langer, radio host and president of the Institute for Liberty, joins The Federalist's Senior Elections Correspondent Matt Kittle to discuss what free speech would look like under a Harris-Walz administration.

Democrats, including those in the current Biden-Harris administration, have long worked to censor and silence conservatives or others they disagree with. Through the weaponization of the justice system, scheming with Big Tech, and working with private organizations, the left has waged an all-out assault on the First Amendment rights of millions of Americans.

But the upcoming election could change everything.

If you care about combatting the corrupt media that continue to inflict devastating damage, please give a gift to help The Federalist do the real journalism America needs.
