... from today's Democrat Party.
Jason Chaffetz
1. Today’s Democratic Party has all but abandoned the First Amendment in favor of censorship. According to Pew Research, support for online government censorship among Democrats has risen dramatically from 40% in 2018 to 70% in July 2023.
2. Likewise, Democratic voters who support the Fourth Amendment’s due process provisions aren’t finding a lot of support within their party. It is the Republican Party that passed the "Fourth Amendment is Not for Sale Act" to prevent unreasonable searches and seizures to stop government from buying up private data without a warrant.
3. Though Kennedy’s uncle, President John F. Kennedy, was a proponent of a strong military, today’s Democrats see military spending as the only part of the federal budget they’re willing to cut.
4. What about those Democratic voters who live in dangerous communities and support public safety? Their party has abandoned them on that issue as well.
5. Finally, the ‘Blue Dog’ Democrats who believed in balanced budgets went from being an endangered species to being extinct. Spending restraint was never pristine in either party, but progressives don’t even pretend to take it seriously.
