We cannot have a politician whose supporters and own SuperPAC blocks political speech. The right to free speech transcends political boundaries, it is a right afforded to every person in this country. A politician whose supporters and perhaps herself that is complicit in blocking the political free speech of any candidate’s supporters simply does not deserve anybody’s vote.

This comes just off as one of Hillary Clinton’s SuperPACs, Correct the Record, is running a multi-million dollar campaign to attack anybody who disagrees with her online. Leading this effort is David Brock, described by The Nation as a “conservative journalistic assassin turned progressive empire-builder”, and by Politico as a “former right-wing journalist-turned-pro-Clinton crusader.” Already, nearly $1 million dollars have been spent on “internet trolls” to attack, harass, and intimidate those who disagree with Mrs. Clinton, a strategy not unseen in countries with restrictive governments.

The Chinese government actively uses paid political trolls to drown out dissidents from the Party. The North Korean government, according to The Telegraph, has a 3,000 man troll army to drown out negative speech about the North Koreans. While extreme examples, this is exactly what Mrs. Clinton’s SuperPACs and supporters are doing, and are quite open about what they are doing. What they are doing is the destruction of the American values of free speech by harassment and intimidation.

Let’s tell the truth about what these SuperPACs and supporters are doing. What they’re doing isn’t “Correcting the Record”. It’s pure political intimidation by skilled journalistic hawks with the express purpose of preventing political speech. It’s attempting to erase a record, not correct one. With Mrs. Clinton’s record as it is, you can bet that is exactly what they are doing.
