The White House said Wednesday that Jane Fonda is "free to share whatever bad opinions she wants" amid her relaunch of a McCarthy-era free-speech group, while insisting President Donald Trump remains "a strong supporter of free speech." Jane Fonda Cites Government Speech SuppressionPress secretary Abigail Jackson made the remarks after Fonda revived the Committee for the First Amendment, as per a report by The Hill. "‘Hanoi Jane' is free to share whatever bad opinions she wants," Jackson said. "As someone who actually knows what it's like to be censored, President Trump is a strong supporter of free speech and Democratic allegations to the contrary are so false, they're laughable." As things stand, lawmakers continue to probe whether corporate decisions and federal approvals have intersected with speech disputes.
