In this clip from The Jenny Beth Show, Congressman Randy Fine explains the constitutional principle that's been muddied by both the radical left and what he calls the "loser right" — the difference between speech and action.
You can stand on a sidewalk and hold a sign saying anything you want. You cannot litter that flyer onto someone's lawn. You can wave a sign outside a synagogue. You cannot block the door. As Fine puts it: "These wackos and losers, maybe because they're stupid, they don't understand the difference between speech and action."
Rep. Fine (FL-6) is a Harvard graduate, the first Jewish member of the House Freedom Caucus, and the architect of Florida's landmark anti-boycott law. He led Florida's response to campus antisemitism and chaired the Florida House Commerce Committee.
What you'll learn:
• Why ugly speech is protected, but threats of violence aren't
• How Florida sends hate-flyer-litterers to prison for five years
• Why preventing someone from entering a synagogue is action, not speech
• How 60 years of campus speech codes already drew this line for other groups
• Why Rep. Fine has never tried to deplatform or silence anyone
Jenny Beth Martin is co-founder of the Tea Party movement and Chairman of Tea Party Patriots Action.
