The former president’s attorney says Trump’s January 6 speech is protected by the First Amendment

Donald Trump’s attorney defended the former President’s January 6 speech, saying he has “absolute immunity.”

This is the first time that Trump and his legal advisors defended the speech.

Opponents say the speech sparked the Capitol Hill riots, where protesters stormed the White House.

Trump continues refusals to cede election

This follows Trump’s ongoing claims that he did nothing wrong to incite the Capitol Hill Riots.

He also continues to say he was “robbed” of the general election.

The former president’s attorney says: “while holding that office, former President Trump was free to advocate for the appointment and certification of electors.

He also went on to say, “The claims against former President Trump directly contravene the absolute immunity conveyed on the President by the Constitution as a key principle of separation of powers.”

Twitter suspends Trump’s new account

This comes after Twitter suspended several accounts set up to share new statements from Trump’s website. Twitter says those accounts broke the platform’s rules against evading an account ban.

“We’ll take enforcement action on accounts whose apparent intent is to replace or promote content affiliated with a suspended account,” Twitter said.

Trump had more than 88 million followers on Twitter before the Capitol Hill riots. Since then, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram have all banned former President Trump from their platforms.

Trump mentioned that he believes an excellent trade deal would benefit the U.S., China and the global economy. He acknowledged the importance of the negotiations, stating that China respects the U.S. but is always seeking advantages in trade.

China’s Trade Reshuffle

China has reshuffled its trade negotiation team. Li Chenggang has been removed from his position as the representative to the World Trade Organization, while retaining his role as vice minister of commerce. This change aligns with Beijing’s strategy to adjust its trade diplomacy amid tensions.

Li Yongjie has been appointed as the new WTO representative. This team transition comes after scrutiny from U.S. officials and reflects China’s commitment to recalibrating its approach within the ongoing trade discussions.

The upcoming APEC summit will gather leaders from 21 economies, representing a significant portion of global GDP. It serves as a pivotal platform for dialogue, despite the backdrop of intensified trade negotiations.
