Free Speech DOES NOT Excuse Sedition

Trump's lawyers are in a bind. The only defense they're leaning on is the right to freedom of speech.

In a desperate grasp for any kind of defense of his seditious activity, Trump's team has sunk to using the most non-sensical argument yet. Trump will soon find out that free speech does not protect criminal activity. "There is no First Amendment privilege to commit crimes just because you did it by speaking," as former federal prosecutor Samuel Buell stated.
