The Securing the Protection of our Enduring and Established Constitutional Heritage (SPEECH) Act is a 2010 federal statutory law in the United States that makes foreign libel judgments unenforceable in U.S. courts, unless either the foreign legislation applied offers at least as much protection as the U.S. First Amendment (concerning free speech), or the defendant would have been found liable even if the case had been heard under U.S. law.

    Could an American go around calling everybody in power a pedophile? Like even though it's true as a rule of thumb, would it be legal even if you were incorrect?

      you can call them all pedos, but if you make a provably false claim like that they had sex with a particular kid or at a particular time you migth get in trouble.
