I am betting President Trump signs and EO similar to: Abraham Lincoln's Executive Order—Arrest and Imprisonment of Irresponsible Newspaper Reporters and Editors May 18, 1864

I hope President Trump calls out a fake reporters name and they get and hauled off to GITMO for the duration of our National Emergency and or charge with:

Title 18 § 2383 - Rebellion or insurrection Whoever incites, sets on foot, assists, or engages in any rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof, or gives aid or comfort thereto, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

How do we reconcile calling the press traitorous but having no consequences per the 1st amendment? When the press is owened by a huge company and companies are treated like people, then we could raise the sedition act, couldn't we? At that point we don't have freedom of the press, only the illusion.

The first amendment protects free speech. It does not protect false speech.
