Re: Assange, Trump, Free Speech https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1667047048443580416 [pictured] Excerpts from a 2016 amicus brief by the ACLU arguing the unconstitutionality of the Espionage Act. Get ready for lots of people to conveniently forget about all this. Some examples of previous Espionage Act prosecutions Two years in prison for saying: “This is a war fostered by Morgan and the rich" Five years in prison for saying: "America was buncoed into the war by munition makers" The National Civil Liberties Bureau, which would later be reconstituted as the ACLU, was formed in direct response to the 1917 passage of the Espionage Act, and would go on to have its offices raided under the claimed auspices of the Espionage Act May 4, 1918 — Sioux Falls, S. D. — Conrad Kornmann receives 10 years and $1,000 fine for opposing the Liberty Loan in a letter to a friend May 28, 1918 — New Britain, Conn — John Kunz convicted for remarking, "Young men are fools to enlist and go across to be blown up" March 6, 1918 — Fargo, N.D. — Henry von Bank convicted for alleged statement, "I would rather see a pair of old trousers flying from the school house flag pole than an American flag.” Conviction reversed on appeal. 2. In 1918 the founder of the Democrat "Sewer Socialist Movement", Congressman Victor Berger, and three others were charged under the Espionage (spying) Act (enacted in 1917), convicted in 1919 or 1920.
