It’s funny — all of the gnashing of teeth and rending of garments over “free speech absolutist” Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter is happening in liberal circles: the media, Hollywood, and Democrats. According to MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace, the Right has “seized” on the idea that it is championing free speech, but it really hasn’t. “They’re for the political version of yelling fire in a movie theater,” she explains, telling adding the word “political” there.

The "political version of yelling fire in a movie theater" *is* protected under the 1st Amendment. Settled law.

The “yelling fire in a movie theater” line really exposes the fact she has no idea what she is talking about 😂

Someone should remind Nicole that it's OK to yell fire when the theater is actually on fire.

Nicole Wallace. Biggest hiring mistake anyone in the GOP ever made that I’m aware of.

I love the fact the libs are going crazy about @elonmusk buying Twitter, they don’t like a level playing field. They know they can’t win.

These people are pathetic…how do they have those jobs?

There is no political version of yelling fire in a movie theater. The left wants everyone to believe that words are violence, so they can make this empty argument.

Yes, to Nicole Wallace, saying a biological man shouldn't be in woman's sports, is like yelling fire in a theater. That's all you need to know about her naivety!

Was the George W. Bush administration staffed exclusively by people who hate conservativism?

We’re almost disappointed that the clip got cut off before Donny Deutsch could warn us of the next January 6 being planned on Twitter.
