Margaret Brennan: The Nazi Holocaust Occurred Because ‘Free Speech Was Weaponized’ in Germany

‘He met with the head of a political party that has far right views’
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

BRENNAN: "Well, he was standing in a country where free speech was weaponized to conduct a genocide. And he met with the head of a political party that has far right views and some historic ties to extreme groups. The context of that was changing the tone of it. And you know that, that the censorship was specifically about the right."
RUBIO: "Well, I have to disagree with you. No, I have -- I have to disagree with you. Free speech was not used to conduct a genocide. The genocide was conducted by an authoritarian Nazi regime that happened to also be genocidal because they hated Jews and they hated minorities and they hated those that they -- they had a list of people they hated, but primarily the Jews. There was no free speech in Nazi Germany.”
