Free speech advocates fear a new bill could let the Secretary of State strip passports from US citizens based on their speech. "Rubio has claimed the power to designate people terrorist supporters based solely on what they think and say," one said.

Free speech advocates are sounding the alarm about a bill in the US House of Representatives that they fear could allow Secretary of State Marco Rubio to strip US citizens of their passports based purely on political speech.

The bill, introduced by Rep. Brian Mast (R-Fla.), will come up for a hearing on Wednesday.

    These republicans, like Charlie Kirk, wrap themselves in Christianity but are the least Christ-like people on the planet. These same frauds tout their patriotism, and stoke national identity while throwing the founding document and our foundational rights, and the rule of law out the window at every opportunity they find to seize power and profit.

      Most conservatives worship Satan. They’re literally devil-worshipers. If your religion leads you to hate, you are not worshiping a benevolent god, you’re worshiping the Devil. Charlie Kirk was a devil worshiper and he’s now joined his master, where he will burn in the fires of Hell for all the misery he brought down upon his innocent victims. All billionaires go to Hell. Most Republicans go to Hell. Any “Christian” that preaches hate is bound for the the Pit.
