All we wanted from Rep. Adam Schiff is to see all that evidence he had of the Trump campaign colluding with Russia, but instead, we got an attempt to overturn Citizens United that’s certain to go nowhere, but maybe it will get him some more time on cable news, which has become sort of a second job for him. Do Democrats have anything on their plates but screwing with the 2020 election?

Our democracy is not for sale. We must stop the flood of dark money from drowning out the voices of everyday citizens. That's why I just introduced a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United and restore power to the American people. pic.twitter.com/YNYzb35uSf — Adam Schiff (@RepAdamSchiff) May 8, 2019

Seriously, all this has done is remind us that we’ve never heard anything about that shady campaign finance deal going on with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her chief of staff.

But overturning Citizen's United would literally take power from the American people and put it in the hands of the Federal Government… https://t.co/2Mn8lLsrTY — RBe (@RBPundit) May 8, 2019

Well, he’s a Democrat, so that’s his objective.

Dems are back to repealing the First Amendment again. If this passes, then for the first time in our nation's history, Congress (and also state legislatures) could "make laws" restricting the freedom of political speech. https://t.co/pzAZHsY9HT — David Freddoso (@freddoso) May 8, 2019

He means “turn it over to people who only back my side”. This man is a fascist. https://t.co/9QeBOxL8P4 — Mark Noonan (@Mark_E_Noonan) May 8, 2019

Hollywood asswipe proposes elimination of the First Amendment. I’m thinking, “No.”https://t.co/8St7Y75akI — Will Collier (@willcollier) May 8, 2019

Just say no. Shifty would take away 1st amendment freedom of speech. https://t.co/iNJp81bJRj — Leigh Stelzer (@Apoconoprof) May 8, 2019

Guess the Dems realized they haven’t attacked the First Amendment in a while so here we are! https://t.co/3dv58VUj1X — Dave Martinez (@_Dmart_) May 8, 2019

By taking away their rights to free political speech?https://t.co/iK2SRH5e1e pic.twitter.com/ubBWgczcwa — Hammerjack (@MarcGiller) May 8, 2019

Dems lost Citizens United. It's a shock they don't want to accept the results. https://t.co/DYehjE9bWx — Diesel Cooper (@Simplekindoffan) May 8, 2019

Citizens United was about an independent documentary filmmaker being allowed to criticize Hillary Clinton.@TheDemocrats want to take away freedom of speech so people can't criticize politicians. https://t.co/B1jYry44jv — W.C. Varones (@wcvarones) May 8, 2019

You got the hard part out of the way. Now all you have to do is: 1. Get 2/3 of the House to pass it.

2. Get 2/3 of the Senate to pass it.

3. Get 38 states to ratify it. Good luck! https://t.co/mlLuzQckAQ — Cuffy (@CuffyMeh) May 8, 2019

As if you needed another reason to oppose this, check out what liberals who are cheering it also want in order to curb free speech:

YES!! Now do one for re-enacting the Fairness Doctrine as well. https://t.co/9FgcMe6ABr — Scott (@scottyz101) May 8, 2019

Yeah, no.
