Ro Khanna on Chevalier’s ‘Wiping Her Hands on the American Flag’ Post: I Do Believe in the First Amendment, We Have Freedom of Speech

‘The same country who produced Donald Trump, can produce Mamdani and Darializa’

EXCERPT:

KHANNA: “Well, I don‘t agree with that. We have flags, at every town hall we start with the pledge of allegiance. But I do believe in the First Amendment. I mean, what makes this country so exceptional is that we have freedom of speech, that we have a diverse nation, that the same country who produced Donald Trump can produce Mamdani and Darializa, and that that is part of a fabric of America, which is not possible anywhere else in the world, other places, let alone should get into Congress, she would have been disciplined or penalized. And here we have a robust First Amendment for speech.”
