    Vance should call out Canada for suppressing free speech as well.

    Google translate: "My billionaire backers have asked me to attack western allies on their free speech record so we can fight the DSA (already in place) and UK's Online Safety Bill (incoming)". Wakey wakey.

    Trump Administration Will ‘Take Action’ If Keir Starmer-Led U.K. Censors Americans

    THE WHITE HOUSE — The Trump administration promised to “take action” if Americans’ speech is censored by U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s crackdown on free speech.

    In response to a question from The Federalist about the United Kingdom’s suppression of free speech, Trump said it was a “very important” issue that his administration is talking to the U.K. government about.

    Trump said that he spoke to Starmer about his censorship regime during their visit, and that Vice President J.D. Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio had also brought up the concern.

    Rubio said he has “real concern” with British conduct toward speech, particularly when it comes to censoring Americans.

    “There’s real concern that American speech, which is online, could fall into the hands of the British or any country’s jurisdiction,” Rubio said. “What unites us with Europe … is these shared values, and one of them being free speech. And so, if Americans are threatened by it, we’re going to need to take action.”
