Emily looks into the controversy surrounding President Trump's new executive order on flag burning, clarifying the significant difference between the President's public call for a "year in prison" and the actual text of the order, which focuses on prioritizing prosecution for associated crimes. Emily explores how the move has reignited a classic First Amendment debate, contrasting the legal philosophy of figures like the late Justice Antonin Scalia with the administration's current position.
