per copilot AI:"Experts argue that while the First Amendment protects abstract advocacy of violence, including calls for genocide..."Attn Tim Walz, who has written on the Holocaust and genocide.

@Hillbillywhisperer I'm all for free education. But it requires a conversation.And there'll have to be limits on underwater basket weaving. But free college? Sure.

@Lemonhead @gerrybrabant I more lean towards his having been compromised by China et al long ago. A historic presidency, at least.

@Dan_Ramos @yukiame at least Andy Kaufman made it entertaining. And no one but him got hurt.

@Dawnz @palmerluckey and, yet, advocating for genocide against Jews is, somehow, allowed. We'll have to get to the bottom of this one.

@YoungBlood oh, I see. Grok is like a fact check service.Okay, that has utility. Hopefully it can provide sources. Of course, these things get real murky real quick.

@Independent of course not....unless you're concerned about national security and would like to know what happened to his 2014 and 2015 tax returns.

Kamala has a unique take on the first amendment.

Is Kamala saying the quiet part out loud? A lawyer looking for loopholes to the first amendment. Intriguing. Macabre, but intriguing.

what exactly is Jack Smith saying? Because filing papers at a court can hardly be illegal. The contents might be fraud, but that seems a seperate matter. I don't claim to understand it all, but it seems like he's saying that Trump wasn't allowed to file papers at a courthouse. Asking someone to find votes isn't the same as asking someone to commit fraud, either. I just don't get it. I don't want to read all the documents.

@thisisthebreath but there must be some sort of thesis to it, right? I mean, let's not strawman this. Let's "steelman" this. What's the argument? I just read https://newrepublic.com/article/186714/jack-smith-supreme-court-immunity-ruling-insanityand am none the wiser. If you don't like the POTUS calling up some dude about voting machines...impeach his ass. I'm just left wondering that the complaint is really that the Constitution doesn't do what Smith wants it to. But there must be more to it.

@justinerickson @thisisthebreath I dunno. The hypothetical I have in mind is war. Let's say that the POTUS pushes the button for no reason. Which would be a war crime, and so...not an official act?Here's the thing: part of the political process involves oversight of elections. It's an imperfect system. Someone has to provide oversight and look into allegations of ballot stuffing. If not the POTUS, then whom? It seems a silly argument to make that the POTUS cannot.
