Following the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, President Trump and allies have praised him as a free speech champion while simultaneously targeting his critics. This has led to accusations of a double standard, with Trump and his administration seemingly endorsing the punishment of those critical of Kirk. While claiming to combat "cancel culture," the administration's actions are seen by some as a crackdown on dissent under the guise of preventing violence and fighting "hate speech." This inconsistency has raised concerns among even some traditional Trump allies about the erosion of First Amendment rights and the potential for future abuses of power.
