Huh?

I’m not sure what is going on at CBS News. But, on Face the Nation, host Margaret Brennan said that "free speech was weaponized" in Germany, and led to the Holocaust.

Huh?

So is Brennan advocating against free speech?

Let’s go to the clip:

Utterly bizarre assertion from Margaret Brennan. She claims the Nazi Holocaust occurred because "free speech was weaponized" in Germany, thus making Vance's comments all the more worrisome. Recasting the Holocaust as a consequence of excessive free speech is just totally bonkers pic.twitter.com/2vefGlzT6s
