That's not true.

That's never been what the First Amendment means.

From the very beginning, immediately almost after the ratification of the Constitution, the federal government clarified what sort of speech was off limits and what kind of speech acts are off limits.

So I think it's great.

I think a lot of our present political ills are because people sincerely have no idea what is actually meant by our free speech tradition.

And then they go out and commit a bunch of crimes, whether it means they're going to riot in the streets of Minneapolis in 2020 and 2025 and 26, or whether it means that you're going to invade a church and call it journalism.

Yeah, great.

Let's make this about the First Amendment.

It kind of reminds me of how, you know, when President Trump went into Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro previously said, come and get me, come and get me.

That's what Don Lemon was doing here.

It was a game of chicken.

He was saying, you know, look, I'm going to I'm going to go right up here.

I'm going to break the law and you guys are too chicken to come and arrest me.

So I think the Trump DOJ had to come in and and enforce the law here.

It's the same kind of thing we see with the body camera debate.

The left for years said that the cops need to wear body cameras because when we finally get to the truth of what's going on, that's going to vindicate the left and it's going to make the cops look terrible.

What happened?

It's exactly the opposite.

Body cams come around, all the footage makes the criminals look awful, totally exonerates the cops.

I think if we get down to the heart of the matter here, the truth of our law, the truth of what these journalists are really doing, it's going to be a massive win from the right and not a moment too soon.
