Corey Rayburn Yung on Nostr: Law Prof Jonathan Turley continues to be dishonest and disingenuous in his statements ...
Law Prof Jonathan Turley continues to be dishonest and disingenuous in his statements about the most recent Trump indictment. He contends that the government charged Trump with making "knowingly false statements," which is (knowingly) false statement by Turley. The phrase appears 5 times in the indictment. Each time, it is part of the description of facts. The federal false statements law is 18 U.S.C. § 1001, notably not in the indictment. The free speech argument is legally frivolous.
