Corrupt Democrats like Schiff and Pelosi are trying to suppress free speech

I and I Editorial:

...
Schiff is “restricting relevant evidence,” Dewey pointed out. “He’s not allowing Republican members to question on transcripts that he hasn’t released yet,” a reference to the committee’s secret deposition of witnesses whose testimony is sealed, but from which Schiff and Democrats then cherry pick and leak to the press.

Schiff is also refusing to allow the GOP members of his panel to bring what Democrats call “sham witnesses” before his panel – meaning figures who would provide details of the connection between Ukrainian government corruption and Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden, whose son Hunter was paid a fortune by a Ukrainian firm while his father was vice president despite Hunter Biden’s lack of expertise in anything of value to the firm.

And that big moment in the Yovanovitch hearing, when President Donal Trump right in the midst of her testimony tweeted a harshly negative assessment of her record in various posts, which Schiff proceeded to read to her, and to which Yovanovitch reacted with horror and called “intimidating”?

Even Trump allies have been shy to endorse the tweet, but Dewey provided a compelling contrarian perspective based on his experience in similar congressional testimony settings. He contended that “it was perfectly fair for him to comment on the witness during the hearing. I’ve seen that all the time in hearings I’ve been involved with. People are live-tweeting. Some of them are are very critical, coming from important people.”

Dewey also pointed out that “if this were following the procedures from the Nixon impeachment, from the Clinton impeachment, his [Trump’s] counsel would have been there to cross-examine today. He did not have that basic procedural protection, so he had to resort to Twitter to weigh in. He was denied that right.”

Far from it being “witness tampering,” as Schiff immediately accused Trump of committing, Dewey said Trump merely “commented on the credibility of the witness, and that’s perfectly appropriate.”

The message from Democrats is that the president of the United States exercising the same constitutional right of free speech enshrined in the First Amendment that all Americans enjoy is an obscenity – indeed a felony, it supposedly being a process crime that interferes with the House’s impeachment inquiry.

Stefanik is interrupted a half dozen times because she’s in technical violation of Schiff’s strict enforcement of his committee’s slanted rules, and because she’s a rising star whose on-camera demeanor is too effective. Not to mention she’s a female New Yorker from the very blue city of Albany whose father ran a plywood business.

Suppressing free speech constitutes the heart of today’s left-dominated Democratic Party. These days it’s being used to destroy a Republican president, but it’s perhaps most often used to prevent voters from being exposed to conservative ideas, because such concepts are the key to keeping Democrats out of power and preventing the left’s agenda of socialist economics and continued social revolution from being implemented.

There is more with several other examples of where corrupt liberal Democrats have been actively suppressing conservative speech.  They label any critical speech of liberalism as "hate speech."  They try to shut down debate through violence and intimidation.  Having denied the President's counsel the opportunity to cross-exam witnesses they also want to shut down his response on Twitter.  Impeachment is a totally corrupt enterprise supervise by Schiff.
