Genuinely curious to see how this is handles w/r/t 1A
Same way they handle it when you lie to an insurance agent or lie on the stand as a witness. 1A doesn’t mean you can say whatever you want whenever you want. We already restrict certain types of speech with little issue.
How so? There’s a right to freedom of expression, but is there a right to impersonate a president with intent to deceive people and impact election results?
Fraud is generally an exception to 1a
And lying to people to disenfranchise US Voters is serious.The criminals responsible should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
Best we can do is a stern voice and some finger-waggling while we throw a minority in jail for having a plant that makes you feel funny.
SCOTUS coming in hot to defend them soon. Just watch.
I think elections have stricter laws but I agree I will be curious how they get charged.
