Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) criticized an attorney for Donald Trump for claiming that the indictment against the former president for his involvement in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack is an attack on free speech. Raskin argued that Trump’s actions, not his speech, led to the indictment. While individuals have the right to express their opinions, Raskin stated that attempting to obstruct the meeting of Congress goes beyond speech and becomes conduct. He compared it to printing counterfeit money, explaining that expressing a belief about the currency is different from actually producing fake money. Raskin pointed out that Trump not only made false claims about the election but also assembled false electors, crossing the line from speech to conduct. He highlighted that the evidence against Trump is overwhelming.
