Definitely curious how the party actively working to ban books and prevent people from expressing themselves artistically in public is supporting free speech.

When you say ban books, do you mean removing them from a public school library?

Im not sure what you mean by prevent people from expressing themselves artistically in public. I'm happy to be enlightened.
