You'd Think the Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee Would have a Working Knowledge of the Constitution. You'd Think....

In the legendary words of that Omar chick from Mogadishu, "Somebody Did Something". Much to the angst of many, in this case that something was to turn the twitter world upside down. And everyone who thinks they are someone had to pipe in about it, some just to pile on. That bring us to one Senator Dandy Dick Durbin.

Senator Dick decided to get his gigs in at the new twitter guy by showing his disgust about trading conspiracy theories with the drunken grandma of death, Hillary Clinton, about the attack on Paul Pelosi.

"In the days since Musk took Twitter private, the platform has seen an uptick in hate speech, and Musk himself used the platform and his influence to spread a baseless conspiracy theory."

Durbin could have left it there and gone back to legislatin' and Senator stuff. But, probably feeling that twitter badass vibe, sadly he didn't. Senator Dick instead went on to show a lack of understanding of the US founding document – The Constitution.

Free speech does not include spreading misinformation to downplay political violence.

To be fair, Durbin has only been in congress for 39 years. Regardless, he was ruthlessly mocked by the Twitter Tweeters. Here's just a sample.....🤣🤣

The First Amendment literally prohibits lying and offensive speech, Governor Durham. I swear some people have never read the Declaration of Independence
