Howard Dean is abysmally ignorant of the U.S. Constitution, and here reveals his dark, authoritarian heart.

A powerful U.S. senator has launched an investigation into whether the FBI knew about a planned attack by ISIS-inspired terrorists at an anti-Muslim cartoon show in the Dallas area and did nothing to stop it — and also misled the lawmaker about circumstances of the 2015 attack.

Who decides what’s fake news and what’s not? Mainstream leftist sources nowadays such as CNN and the New York Times regularly feature demonstrably false stories, but I assure you that none of them will be shut down.

Every news report on the San Francisco transit free speech ban blames me. Every news report runs photos of my ads only. Look at this. No news report mentions that my ads were a response to vicious Islamic Jew-hating ads.

None of the news reports show the ugly vicious ads (scroll down) that prompted me to run ad campaigns on San Francisco buses.

But there is a silver lining to this ban. The savages can’t run their lies and their libel.

Who decides what’s hate and what’s not? All of the reportage on my work is hate-filled but I assure that will not be criminalized. What will Germany do when truth is deemed hate?

The leftwing mecca of radical liberalism is moving towards shutting down free speech on transit after we submitted our latest ad campaign to the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Authority to run on buses across the city.

If Anne Aly succeeds, the jihad can advance in Australia, and no one would be able to say a word in opposition to it.

An Iranian 21-year-old has been sentenced to death after ‘insulting the prophet’ of Islam on an instant messaging app.

“Do we have the world’s sickest justice?”

They’re blaming us for the fascist, counter-free speech actions of the transit systems that changed their rules to ban all political ads rather than run our ads. This is like blaming a woman for being raped.

Pakistani officials have also contacted Facebook and Twitter to request them to identify Pakistanis outside the country who are posting anti-Islam material so the government can pursue their extradition and prosecute them at home.

Facebook is now obliging Pakistan government requests to remove blasphemous content from the platform and almost 85 percent of such material has been taken down, senior government officials have informed the Islamabad High Court (IHC).

A meeting of ambassadors of the Islamic countries with Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan in the chair has decided to raise the issue of blasphemous content on social media in the United Nations.

“The fight against terrorism and hate speech has to be a joint one. The government and security services are doing everything they can and it is clear that social media companies can and must do more.”

The United Nations marked the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination on Tuesday by telling governments around the world that regulating “hate speech” is part of the strategy needed to “stand up for someone’s rights.”

“Aside from time served, the deal includes a fine, supervised release for life, and a special assessment of $200.”

When Murray and Middlebury professor Allison Stanger tried to leave the building, they were followed by protesters who accosted them physically. The professor was grabbed by the hair and her neck twisted—she was fitted with a neck brace at a hospital—and their car rocked in a way that alarmed local authorities. It was another victory for opponents of free speech, and if that seems like an incongruous scalp for a civil rights lawyer to wear, well, our politics are pretty odd these days.

Whichever way the dust settles following the outcome of the Dutch general elections on March 15, would it not be wise to heed Geert Wilders’ warning, and resist the impinging tidal wave of Islamisation?

Here comes Germany’s new era of fascism. Germany has a death wish. It is destroying itself yet again.

Rose told The College Fix that he faced a very angry crowd at his lecture. “There was a loud protest outside the auditorium before my talk, around 30 people.”

As a movement today the Left is frankly authoritarian, intolerant of dissent, and increasingly intent on demonizing and destroying its opponents, rather than engaging them in rational debate.

In Sweden it is generally not acceptable to ask questions about things that are not politically correct.

Here are the documents our world-class legal team at the American Freedom Law Center has just filed in our lawsuit challenging the sharia enforcement and denial of our free speech rights by Seattle authorities who are actually claiming that a poster depicting the FBI’s most wanted criminals is disparaging to Muslims because all the most wanted criminals are Islamic jihad terrorists.

“Some anti-Trump protesters threw things at Trump supporters. Berkeley police made occasional forays into the crowd, but mostly held back…One pro-Trump supporter was apparently sprayed in the face with Mace.”

The European Parliament voted Thursday to lift the immunity from prosecution for French far-right leader Marine Le Pen for tweeting gruesome images of Islamic State violence.

The Left is increasingly authoritarian, increasingly determined to suppress all opposing points of view, and increasingly sold out to the jihad force.

Police the other day registered a case against Shaan Taseer, son of slain Punjab governor Salmaan Taseer, for alleged ‘hate speech’ after he sent a greeting out to fellow countrymen on the occasion of Christmas.

Megyn Kelly doesn’t realize that she has contradicted herself. What she thinks makes me “hateful” is exactly the defense of the freedom of speech that she claims to defend. Watch.

Several European governments have made it clear to their citizens that criticizing European migrant policies or migrants is criminally off-limits and may lead to arrest, prosecution and even convictions. Although these practices constitute police state behavior, European governments do not stop there. They go still farther, by ensuring that Islam in general is not criticized either.

This is the moment where hate speech laws become a greater threat to democracy and freedom of speech than hate speech itself.

After a week of nonstop jihad terror in New York, de Blasio and his accomplices continue to put Islam first, center and last. In the past week alone: Muslim meat cleavers NYPD cops, a devout Muslim in New York (working with how many others remains to be seen) plants 11 bombs in New York City…

This is a sharia suit. Clockmed and his family are suing people who criticized them. It is not illegal to disagree with someone, or to criticize someone, in the United States. They are trying to impose sharia blasphemy restrictions: do not criticize Islam. Do not criticize Muslims. This suit should be dismissed with prejudice immediately….

UPDATE from Pamela Geller: “I have, for some time, been aware of the sleazy, fraudulent behavior of the Shoebats. Their material is unreliable and, in many cases, untrue.

This is sharia enforcement in the West. Make no mistake — this is sharia. Voltaire: “To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.” In a word, Islam. As I said at my speech at the AFA last week, we are living under the sharia, and people don’t…

Surrender. Surrender and submission. I held an art exhibit of drawings of Muhammad, and was criticized by numerous people on the Right for offending Muslims. We can’t do things that offend Muslims.

I am sure I don’t have to tell you that the reporter Jobim Panicker interviewed me for a half hour and used 30 seconds of it. No surprise there.

Today is the one-year anniversary of the jihadi attack on our free speech event in Garland, Texas.

I was banned from Britain in 2013 for the crime of opposing jihad terror. And now we see where Britain is going. The people who have to live there are the ones most to be pitied. Accommodation of sharia and politically correct appeasement of jihadists are the order of the day in Britain. It is…

This is why the party of treason must be stopped. Hillary Clinton has long been agitating for Islamic restrictions on free speech.
