Recently resurfaced video footage shows Kamala Harris telling members of the NAACP that if she’s installed as president, she’ll use the Department of Justice to run a Brazil-style crackdown on the free speech of American citizens and the social media platforms they use to communicate. What’s more, is that Kamala’s husband, Doug Emhoff, told The Times of Israel that supporting censorship will be his pet project as “first gentleman” – especially censorship of speech he deems “antisemitic.”
During a 2019 address to the Detroit Branch of the NAACP, Kamala Harris, during her first unsuccessful run for the presidency, vowed to put “the Department of Justice of the United States back in the business of justice” by building an army of civil rights division operatives to counter free speech “extremism” on the internet, because it’s a “threat to our democracy.”
Harris vowed to not only go after social media users who say things she doesn’t like but to go after entire platforms if they dare to allow free speech to flourish.
“We will hold social media platforms accountable for the hate infiltrating their platforms because they have a responsibility to help fight against this threat to our democracy. And if you profit off of hate, if you act as a megaphone for misinformation or cyber warfare, if you don’t police your platforms we are going to hold you accountable as a community.”

Harris’ 2019 remarks resurfaced the very same week that a Brazilian Supreme Court panel ruled in favor of the Lula government’s nationwide ban of X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.
As National File reported, the judges behind the ruling are closely linked to communism and the Lula government, which came to power in a contested, highly irregular election not dissimilar from America’s 2020 contest, is backed by the U.S. deep state.

Kamala Harris isn’t the only member of her multi-surname family preparing to crack down on free speech. Amid the Democrat National Convention in Chicago, her husband, Doug Emhoff, told Jewish political bosses that as America’s “second gentleman,” despite having no governmental power or authority, he’s worked with the Biden-Harris Administration help the White House in “combatting antisemitism.”
As The Times of Israel reported:
Speaking at an event organized by the Jewish Democratic Council of America on the sidelines the Democratic National Convention’s final day in Chicago, Emhoff shared how the vice president has encouraged his work.
He recalled sharing with Harris in late 2022 how incensed he was upon seeing a banner over a highway in his hometown of Los Angeles that read, “Kanye is right about the Jews.”
“So Kamala said, ‘Go do something about it. You’re second gentleman,’” Emhoff recalled.
Emhoff had already been speaking out against antisemitism and been open about his Jewish identity, but it was after that he began holding more intensive meetings with Jewish community leaders, which led to the roll-out of the first ever White House strategy for combatting antisemitism last year.
During the same speech, Emhoff went on to vow more censorship as “first gentleman” and he specifically spoke out against campus protestors of the Israeli war effort, accusing them of scaring Jewish students out of going to class.
“I can tell you, when Kamala Harris is president and I’m first gentleman, we’re going to make sure they can go to class,” Emhoff said.
