Former Democrat Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, who left the Democratic Party last year, testified this week against the weaponization of the government against conservatives, and now has come out in a full-throated defense of Newsmax after it was censored by AT&T’s DirecTV last month.
“Democracy means not just tolerating opinions we don’t like, but actively defending their right to exist,” Gabbard tweeted Saturday morning. “By dropping @NEWSMAX this week and OAN last year, AT&Ts DirecTV is actively censoring conservative voices and fueling the fire of divisiveness that is tearing this country apart.”
Gabbard was a prominent figure to stand for freedom of speech against the weaponization of government during hearings Thursday.
