The Democrat Party has changed since Harry Truman said this:
“Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.”
‘Silencing’ has become a way of life for Democrats when they govern. For example, when Democrats controlled the House of Representatives, they held a hearing on ‘Disinformation and Extremism in the Media.’ What prompted the hearing was a letter, written by Anna Eshoo (D-CA) and Jerry McNerney (D-CA), to 12 cable and satellite provider companies that carried TV shows ranging from the Food Network to Fox News. The letter began, “Our country’s public discourse is plagued by misinformation, disinformation, conspiracy theories and lies.” The representatives were concerned about right-wing media broadcasts, which, they claimed, was spreading ‘lies’ and ‘disinformation.’
