It is a pardon covering speech and other writings and utterances, whether given freely on a website or podcast or in public or private. Not actions that are subject to criminal charges.

I am not afraid of being found guilty if I was criminally charged or even investigated for what I post here. However that isn't the point... the point is that I would have to pay a criminal defense lawyer to mount the defense ( either criminal or civil ). I don't happen to have $50K laying around to spend on this. These people hate us... and they will have the resources of the federal government to use to sue us into bankruptcy. And if you think they won't do it with Kash Patel at the FBI...
