Learn how Donald Trump’s move against flag burning directly challenges established Supreme Court precedent and his prior stance against government censorship, revealing a hypocrisy regarding protected, offensive speech.
Short Summary

- Highlighting that the Supreme Court, including conservative icon Antonin Scalia, previously affirmed flag burning as protected political expression via the First Amendment.
- Identifying the lack of factual support for the claim that burning the flag incites widespread, unprecedented riots.
This segment dissects Donald Trump’s actions when he signed an executive order targeting flag burning, contrasting it sharply with his promises of expanded free expression. Understanding this inconsistency is crucial for evaluating absolute commitments to constitutional rights, especially concerning offensive speech.

He only did this because it's now illegal to burn the Israeli flag, and he got pushed back on it being legal to burn the American flag. This is not about the American flag.
I use my US flag as kindling to get my Israeli flag fire really going.

Israeli flag can’t be burnt as of last week. People were upset their flag takes a higher status. This is the Israeli directive to outlaw burning our own flag too, to bring attention off them.
How about getting AIPAC out of Congress?

They believe in "free speech" except this list of 24 pages of things you can't say or do. Again, left and right are different wings of the same authoritarian bird.
He's setting the stage for punishing speech against Israel.
How about a law that we can't fund any foreign wars.
