By this logic, mugging somebody at gunpoint is protected by the first and second amendment. I exercised my right to free speech and to bear arms, and then they voluntarily gave me all they had.
If a citizen claims this -- ridiculous. But if a corporation or the president did it, and with the current supreme court -- who knows.

Maybe it's just an article with a misleading headline, depending on what's actually being claimed.
