Burning the flag was ruled by the Supreme Court to be free speech.

But that doesn't matter now. The dictator Trump has issued his decree, and when it eventually gets appealed all the way to this Supreme Court, the corrupt and compromised co-conspirators Roberts, Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh will give him what he wants, probably without even bothering to try to justify it.
