Jimmy: 我认为特朗普政府对言论自由的限制是危险的，特别是针对巴勒斯坦抗议者的措施。这与他之前支持言论自由的言论相矛盾。民主党人对言论自由的立场也令人担忧，他们似乎更倾向于审查制度。 我认为特朗普此举是出于政治目的，为了迎合他的支持者，特别是那些亲以色列的捐助者。但这实际上损害了他的言论自由的信誉，并可能导致更广泛的言论压制。 此外，我认为民主党人对这场战争的支持是令人担忧的，他们似乎已经放弃了他们之前的反战立场。 我对特朗普政府的政策以及民主党人对这些政策的回应感到担忧。我认为这两种立场都对言论自由和民主构成了威胁。 Matt Taibbi: 我反对特朗普政府对言论自由的限制。我认为这违反了第一修正案，并且会对大学和学生产生寒蝉效应。 虽然特朗普声称只针对非法抗议，但这实际上是一种审查制度，因为它会惩罚允许表达特定观点的大学。 此外，我认为民主党人对这个问题的立场令人担忧。他们似乎更倾向于支持审查制度，而不是言论自由。 我认为特朗普的这一举动是一个巨大的政治错误，这可能会损害他在支持者中的声誉。 我还担心欧洲联盟的审查制度，我认为这比以色列对言论自由的威胁更大。 Glenn Greenwald: 我认为特朗普政府的政策违反了第一修正案。政府不能以撤销资助为条件来惩罚大学允许表达特定观点。 这与最高法院的判例相矛盾，这些判例指出，政府不能以表达特定观点为条件来提供或撤销福利。 特朗普政府的这一举动是危险的，因为它会对言论自由产生寒蝉效应。 Caitlin Johnstone: 我认为以色列对言论自由的威胁比其他任何因素都大。西方政府对以色列的支持是当今社会言论自由面临的最大威胁。 为了保护以色列的利益，西方世界正在压制言论。 Zelensky: 我最初对特朗普政府的政策表示不满，但在与特朗普会面后，我改变了我的立场。我愿意考虑部分停火，以结束战争。

Shownotes Transcript

In what can only be described as a stunning reversal on a key political issues, Republicans have now siezed the mantle of supporting free speech away from Democrats — mostly owing to Democrats’ support for efforts to counter what they call “misinformation” and “hate speech” online. But now Donald Trump appears to be willing to crack down on speech he doesn’t like as well, in particular criticisms of Israel and support for Palestinians.

Jimmy and investigative journalist Matt Taibbi discuss just how much Trump’s proposed measures against protesters will undermine his free speech bona fides among the MAGA faithful.

Plus segments with Taibbi on Trump exposing the likes of Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders as pro-war tools, CNN’s post-speech poll showing wide-ranging support for Trump’s stated agenda and Zelensky rethinking his stance of pissing off Trump and coming crawling back to make peace with Russia.
