Maybe McCain wants his belly rubbed, and his ego stroked by the press some more. Like McCain Feingold.

[under new election legislation pushed by Sen. John McCain and two Democrats]

Could have saved a few words and just said “three Democrats”.

Besides, it would be more accurate.

The leftist anti free speech “Hive” is invading free human space.

Exterminate them all.

This MUST be stopped. If they can regulate foreign ads, they can also regulate the free speech of Americans. So much for “Congress shall make no law...”

The “Honest Ads Act”

Sounds like the Affordable Healthcare Act.

Will it apply to political ads?

Remember that McCain was part of that McCain-Feingold Campaign Reform Act, parts of which have since been shot down by various courts.

McCain continues his “scorched earth campaign”.
Hey McCain, we despised you long before Trump came into view.

I don’t remember ever seeing political ads on Drudge. I don’t use Google or Facebook, so don’t know anything about them.

That would require another bureaucracy to monitor dozens of websites and millions of posts daily. That would require additional bureaucracy to review and punish.

That has the makings of a gargantuan political monstrosity.

McCain joins Dems to regulate Drudge, Google, Facebook political ads

That's strange, Songbird himself carried my political advertising in America.

As it is we are unable to enforce most of the laws on the books. So by enacting more laws we create such maze of laws that they can only be selectively enforced. Thus we can’t have equal justice for all.

FU McCain.

You can start with an “honest politicians law” where politicians can be sued for running fake ads - like you did. Or where politicians refuse to uphold their political promises as publically advertised - like you did. Or where politicians take funding from political opposition forces - like you did.

You are a disgrace to the senate and all legitimate and honest representatives and if this monstrosity of a bill attacking the ifrst amendment passes - I hope Trump tweets a thumbs down and vetoes your ass.

“By the bill sponsors’ own accounts, less than 1/100 of 1 percent of the online political spending last year was by Russians, but the bill would impose new regulatory burdens on the other 99.99 percent of American speakers. “

If it passes — VETO!
