        It says “First Amendment” right in the title. The subtitle is:

        Trump’s lawyers plan to argue he had a First Amendment right to subvert the 2020 election. He didn’t.

        Paragraph two is:

        “This is an attack on free speech and political advocacy,” Trump attorney John Lauro told CNN Tuesday evening. In a separate appearance on Fox News, Lauro claimed that Trump is being prosecuted for “what he believed in and the policies and the political speech that he carried out as president.”

        The whole point of this article is that they’re going to argue that overturning an election has everything to do with free speech.
