Madison Cawthorn, R-N.C., Mastriano appears as content to be seen doing things as actually doing things. Just like such conspiracy-minded compatriots as U.S. That’s because it has the advantage of being both litigation and veto-bait.īut if we know one thing about Mastriano, that’s more than half the point.
There’s zero chance of this bill getting signed into law, even if, by some miracle, it gets through the House and Senate. Online wags immediately set upon Mastriano’s proposal, wondering out loud, how a lawmaker, who proclaimed, without offering evidence, that “there is election fraud in Pennsylvania and denying it won’t make it go away,” intended to pass, let alone enforce, a bill that likely runs afoul of the Constitution’s interstate commerce clause.Īnd they’re right. “There is no doubt that freedom of thought and speech are fundamental rights for both individuals and a functional healthy society, and the growing tendency of Big Tech to limit or censor speech is gravely concerning,” Mastriano and Hutchinson wrote, waving an enormous red flag in the direction of well-heeled white men everywhere with access to multi-million dollar communications operations who feel their free-speech rights are being constrained, when, in fact, the field is undergoing some badly needed leveling. Hutchinson, R-Venango, that would give social media companies 30 days to give users a written explanation of why their accounts were banned or disabled, and then offer them a recourse to restore their accounts. Last week, Mastriano set Twitter alight when he circulated a memo seeking supportfor a bill he’s co-sponsoring with Sen. Doug Mastriano, R-Franklin, speaks with attendees on the Capital steps of a rally for gun rights on September 29, 2020. “He wants to turn the clock back on history.”Īfter the jump - some context and further details. “ Doug Mastriano is, for all intents and purposes, a perfect example of what I call a a clock-watcher, Williams continued.

“Why would somebody, during Black History Month, talk about free speech and then talking about slavery, right?” Williams told the Capital-Star on Tuesday.
Anthony Williams, D-Philadelphia, you see it as a barely disguised racist dog whistle from one of the Legislature’s most high-profile “ Stop the Steal” advocates and an outspoken critic of Gov. Doug Mastriano, R-Adams, who has a history of sharing anti-Muslim memes on social media? And when it’s happening amidst both a massive right-wing fit over cancel culture and Black History Month? “This is slavery, not to speak one’s thoughts,” Euripides wrote in his play “The Phoenician Women,” which deals with the rather icky fallout from the earlier play “ Oedipus Rex.”īut what happens when the guy dropping the reference is state Sen.
