ÃÛÖ­ÏãÌÒ

One year into Trump 2.0, we examine the administration's record on free speech and how it compares to the president's campaign pledge to "bring back free speech to America."

We also discuss recent ICE protests, including the right to carry a gun and to film law enforcement, and what these encounters reveal about protest rights today.

Today we are joined by:

• Clark Neily, senior vice president for legal studies at the Cato Institute

• Timothy Zick, professor of government and citizenship at William & Mary Law School and author of the new book

• Conor Fitzpatrick, supervising senior attorney at ÃÛÖ­ÏãÌÒ

Zick is also the author of , , and .
