Dana Loesch: Insane Texas Law Threatens To JAIL Political Meme Posters & Criminalize Parody (Up To A YEAR In Jail) w/ David Zweig – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 482

1 hour 29 minutes

Texas House Of Representatives passed House Bill 366, which would criminalize certain types of political memes and threatens violators with “up to one year in jail and a $4,000 fine.”

Proponents say its intention is to stop the spread of fake, AI-generated graphics that could influence elections, especially as AI models continue to produce more and more realistic images. But First Amendment experts warn that HB 366 is so broad, it could be used to prosecute satire and parody writers.

Dana Loesch hosts the nationally-syndicated radio program The Dana Show from Dallas, Texas. She authored three books: Hands Off My Gun, Flyover Nation, and Grace Canceled. A Second Amendment advocate, she represented gun owners on CNN’s town hall on gun control post-Parkland, adding nearly a million members to the NRA during her association.
