They can say whatever they want criticizing the government without retribution from the government is what it means. It was never protecting anyone from openly saying anything they wanted.

You can say you're going to murder your neighbor and be arrested legally and charged legally for it if they find reasonable means you were going to try it.

You can slander/libel someone and legally get sued in civil court as well.
