""We will absolutely target you, go after you, if you are targeting anyone with hate speech, anything-and that's across the aisle," Bondi declared, adding that we can't allow "that hate speech in the world in which we live.""
""You cannot call for someone's murder. You cannot swat a Member of Congress. You cannot dox a conservative family and think it will be brushed off as "free speech." These acts are punishable crimes, and every single threat will be met with the full force of the law.""
""Hate speech does not exist legally in America," he once wrote. "There's ugly speech. There's gross speech. There's evil speech. And ALL of it is protected by the First Amendment.""
Attorney General Pam Bondi suggested targeting 'hate speech' after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, asserting hate speech is not protected and promising prosecutions. She said law enforcement will 'absolutely target' anyone spreading hate speech across the political spectrum, and warned that such speech cannot be tolerated. Conservatives reacted angrily, arguing the concept of 'hate speech' is vague, politically weaponized, and unconstitutional under the First Amendment. Charlie Kirk previously wrote that hate speech does not legally exist and that offensive speech remains protected. Bondi later clarified on X that she intends to prosecute speech that directly leads to violence, such as murder threats, swatting, and doxxing.
