The Trump DOJ goes "woke" and will target free speech.

Who said anything about it being "illegal"?

You asked about whether or not people have the Constitutional right to "create and sell merchandise that wishes for and encourages the death of another person" or if they should be held responsible for it. What did you mean by being held responsible, if not legally?

Charlie Kirk’s Group Held Its First Post-Assassination Campus Event. It Was Extreme—and Revealing.​

Revenge against “the left” is on the near-term agenda, but even the group’s leaders are concerned about what comes after that.​

The first event, in Minneapolis, for example, started with a very particular character in Michael Knowles, a conservative radio and podcast host associated with the Daily Wire.

“Christian forgiveness does not demand we allow the cruel to ravage the whole earth; it demands we love our enemies,” he said. “In politics, love usually means punishing the guilty, both for the protection of the innocent as well as for the good of the criminals.”

Knowles wants the right to act decisively and drastically, to use the groundswell of public support to crack down hard on opponents. In particular, Knowles was concerned with the idea of “free speech”—something that Kirk has been celebrated as a champion of, but something that has also divided the right in the aftermath of the killing, as the administration has moved to label those who criticized Kirk as supporting left-wing violence. Knowles, it seems, sides with the administration:

In the wake of Charlie’s assassination, many are inclined to redouble our devotion to the marketplace of ideas. This instinct, I think, misses a crucial step. We had a marketplace of ideas. The left shot it up. If we wish to restore the healthy exchange of ideas, we need to refortify the marketplace. Marketplaces of all kinds require rules, confidence, and common medium of exchange. They require, in other words, order.

Stephen Miller Claims Simply Calling Trump Authoritarian ‘Incites Violence and Terrorism’​

“Trying to criminalize the act of calling a government ‘authoritarian,’” one journalist said, “is exactly what an authoritarian government would do.”​

Miller’s comments came in response to a clip of California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), who appeared Tuesday on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” on CBS.

“I mean, if some guy jumped out of an unmarked car in a van and tried to grab me, by definition, you’re going to push back,” Newsom continued. “These are not just authoritarian tendencies; these are authoritarian actions by an authoritarian government.”

“This should put chills up spines, “ Newsom said. “[Miller] called the Democratic Party an ‘extremist organization,’ basically a terrorist organization, saying he’s going after his enemies.”

Newsom also referred to a post made by Trump on Truth Social telling Attorney General Pam Bondi to target certain political enemies for prosecution.

Miller responded to the clip of Newsom, saying: “This language incites violence and terrorism.”
