President Trump said in CPAC speech that he'll sign 'free speech' executive order
President Donald Trump will speak to a crowd of supporters on Saturday at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Maryland.
Trump's speech follows a week in which his former attorney Michael Cohen accused him of criminal conduct in testimony before Congress. He also visited Vietnam for a summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un that failed to produce a nuclear weapons deal. The president is scheduled to take the stage at 11:30 a.m. EST. He’s spoken at the event, a gathering of conservative leaders, each of the last two years.
