CBS’s Margaret Brennan stated on "Face the Nation" that the Nazis did not "weaponize" free speech to conduct the Holocaust, as there was no free speech under the authoritarian Nazi regime. She emphasized that the Holocaust was carried out by a regime that hated Jews and minorities, not through free expression. Brennan discussed Vice President Pence’s speech at the Munich Security Conference, which highlighted concerns about the erosion of free speech and tolerance of opposing views in Europe. She supported the right to express differing opinions, even if disagreed with, as part of open dialogue.
