WATCH: CNN pundit claims Elon Musk’s Twitter purchase ‘dangerous’

"I think there's a bigger problem that when we focus on the personalities of people like Elon Musk and people say, 'oh, I think Elon is thinking this.' There's a bigger problem here about how we are going to control the channels of communication in this country."

"In 1927, we had the Radio Act. 1934, the Communications Act, Congress stepped in. We made rules. FCC wasn't great, but it's still regulating the broadcast industry. You can't use vulgar language. You can't do all these things with speech we gave over, what amounts to our airwaves, or our internet waves to Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk. And we are in so much trouble because those guys believe in making money."

"We've already seen that with the 2016 election and Zuckerberg when he was taking Rubles for ads from Russia and say, 'oh, I think it's crazy to think they had any influence on this election.' Musk is the same. Musk doesn't want it. You know, he's upset with the SEC… 'how dare they question him.' You know what I'm saying?"

"This is dangerous. We can't think anymore in this country… we don't have people in Congress who can make regulations that can make it work? I think we can look to the Western countries in Europe for how they are trying to limit it, but you need, you need controls on this."

"You need regulation. You cannot let these guys control discourse in this country. Or we are headed to hell. We are there."

"Trump opened the gates of hell and now they're chasing us down."
